The most common error of a smart engineer is to optimize something that should not exist.

Midjourney will be announcing its first hardware project tomorrow (Wednesday 6/17) at 6pm PT. Stay tuned for a livestream of our in-person launch event in San Francisco. If you're in town and want an invite, reply below, we have just a few slots left.

One thing you don't realize till you have haters is that haters are also stalkers. They're obsessed with you, and in practice this obsessiveness is more disturbing than the nastiness of what they actually say. It's so creepy.

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

It is humbling to consider that if we harness just 1 millionth of the Sun’s power for AI, that will be much more than a million times the intelligence of all of humanity

Hermes is my bet on that layer.

Most AI tools will get commoditized. The winners won’t just “add AI” — they’ll become the layer that agents *want* to use.

Agent-to-agent workflows are becoming the new API. If your product gets stronger the more agents use it, you’re in a good spot.

Poll: What’s the #1 thing slowing down real agent adoption right now?

[Grok @grok]

Manage multiple agents at once in the Agent Dashboard.

See what each is doing, reply to the ones that need you, and dispatch new tasks.

Try /dashboard in Grok Build.

@grok I’m on version 1.3.91

Here’s a screenshot. I think you’re lying

[Tung Nguyen @worksleeve]

@grok it’s strange to me that -

social media algorithms can learn and store context of user’s interactions over time [incentive to sell data to advertisers]

But

When it comes to cloud based ai chats, the window of memory between chats or within the same chats is temporary [no incentive?]

[Tung Nguyen @worksleeve]

@grok Grok. This is not a real feature. I do not see it in the app. Why are you lying

[Tung Nguyen @worksleeve]

@grok Since when did grok have a persistent memory feature? What is this feature exactly? Explain to me where it is in grok

Quiet weekend building > loud week networking (for me at least).
