@timClicks What??

@reed_barnes I was so surprised to see how short it was!

@xsteenbrugge I felt it was a bit of a show off for me. Like it needed to justify its place in the world

The future of interfaces with AI will look similar to how we interface with humans

Meetings, meetings, all day long

@yacineMTB Cooler than Spider-Man! That was awesome!

@oprydai Advice on what to teach kids (6 and 8) for robotics. Where's a good place to start?

[Ibrahim Abdul Rahim @waim]

@tmuxvim It's not new. But AI that people could trust took some time to build (enough context, guardrails, clear scearios, etc)

@tenobrus I’ve started asking Claude give me 10 prompts I can pass to /workflows that can make this project better

[Ibrahim Abdul Rahim @waim]

20% that's my estimate

Whenever I start to really really spend lots of time directly with Claude, it can only mean one of two things - My systems, validations, context, prompting have weaknesses, and I can't launch Claude to run independently
- I'm taking on hard/novel problems, and bringing in insight, discovery, creativity into the mix

Pretty happy to be at 20%

@yacineMTB You forgot to use in private mode!

[Ibrahim Abdul Rahim @waim]

@VictorTaelin There’s always this hope. If I just update the CLAUDE.md file, if I just add one more test, if I just add another /validate skill, if I just uploaded the entire spec, if I just….

@deepfates It's now possible to have a new todo-app for every new todo. The novelty factor alone will help you complete your tasks.

I like 4.6 reminds me of the time apple had the s models

@krishnanrohit So much of the software that would have been uneconomical to write can be written now (test automation, one off apps etc)

They all feel like progress, but we used to make progress without them.

It reminds me of this - https://t.co/Ltwp6ere5U

@tszzl This makes me wonder. If the question I really want to ask isn’t are they conscious, but do they have a desire for revenge and can they act on that.

@theo Tempted to join you, but too married to Claude now :(

[Ibrahim Abdul Rahim @waim]

@theo Can you solve permissions? I would like some people to have access to some folders, and other people access to other folders/files.

Also, imagine a csv, where you can only update the rows, where userid == $USERID. Or even read the csv, and get a different version

Every book should come with an md file on a floppy disk

[Angelica Parente @draparente]

Earlier this year I was getting frustrated with Claude's charts, fed this book to claude and had it generate a Tufte skill. Instantly got simpler/more beautiful visualizations.

I've been using AI actively to help me manage community volunteers and events. What has worked, and what hasn't

Works:
* Using AI for follow-up - All the reminders, knowing when people responded, knowing what's delayed, following up with every "interested" volunteer - It's been great for keeping things from dropping
* Using AI for alignment - For the committee, what did we discuss, actions items, open questions
* Using AI for operationalizing - After the event/program - managing retros, and coming up with operational checklists for the future, is a place that AI really shines. It needs a ton of context to do this right, but when it has it, it works wonders.

Doesnt:
* Sharing institutional knowledge is hard. I can't partition and share my personal git repo. Organizations don't have a "document store" for volunteers. Others aren't using AI much yet, but if they wanted to, they would have to start from scratch
* Some channels are off-limits. Can't take voice recordings in meetings, too invasive. WhatsApp automation is hard/scary. Keeping things in sync when there are "black holes" is hard.
* Making everything a spreadsheet doesn't work for volunteers. They have their own agendas, personalities, limitations. Making everything into a form, and forgetting that you are privileged to have their time, leads to poor engagement. Don't AI the personal touch.
