As a user, I want a website that learns to use other websites so that I can use fewer websites.

Agent Skills are cognitive artifacts* for LLMs ;) *see Don Norman’s 1991 paper
The thing that is exciting *to me* about @AnthropicAI's "agent skills" announcement is that it provides a step toward continual learning. - Rather than continuously updating model weights, agents interacting with the world can continuously add new skills. - Compute spent on

Good ready by @zehf on the risks of UI decisions growing or dulling user agency: “Often, we don't want to be better navigators, or our use of math is so trivial it doesn't justify constant practice. And that's fine. So long as it's a deliberate choice.” https://t.co/UAkaBilQwv

My xp in agent builders thus far aligns w/ this reasoning: "A probabilistic-first system actually allows you to skip a lot of the complexity inherent in a visual builder. You don’t need to worry about all of the branching logic, or exceptions, or looping back."
When we look back, one of the defining product challenges of this time will be how we blended determinism and probabilism into a single product experience. People need both. Early last week, @OpenAI announced a deterministic heavy, workflow oriented Agent builder. A few days

Our Chief Scientist, @DhruvBatra_, on proactive vs reactive agents, long-horizon RL with Scouts running for weeks, how agentic traffic changes the attention economy of the web, and why reimagining humanity's interface with the web requires generative UIs + intelligence built
🎙️ Dhruv Batra, co-founder of @yutori_ai, sits down with us to explore the future of AI agents, how AI is changing the way people interact with the web, and the challenges that proactive AI agents may face. https://t.co/gPy4Iiy2Km

While playing with Claude Code, I was really loving its loading animation. So I asked it to make me a CLI Loader WYSWYG tool :)

Dog rescue is by far my fave Scouts success story thus far 🐶
We've been quietly shipping improvements to our agent infrastructure, and it's getting really good.

It’s 2027. There’s no more Ubers, just robotaxi’s…. Some of us still pay in cash to ride in 2002 BMW Taxi’s up University Ave— similar to how they ride horse carriages thru snowy Chicago streets— to remind us of the good old days.

Similarly, friends should never 100% settle ‘debts’ with each other. Loose accounting means you will forever remain on each other’s books & the numbers will work themselves out over the course of your shared lifetimes.
There are no healthy, convenient relationships. Any semblance of one is an illusion. Strings always remain attached.

Here's a peek at my new toy LLM app called Zoomer: a simple "semantic zoom" interface to easily distill ⇔ extrapolate text as you write. It's just a fun thought experiment designed in code, but LMK if you wanna play with it & I'll deploy / open source soon!

The next billion dollar agents will be what I call “proactive agents.” These are the ones capable of predicting user intent before a request. No one has figured out a reliable way to do this just yet. We are close.

Played around w/ some @areatechnology_ inspired aesthetics, but wound up looking like a cheap version of liquid glass... still *thinking*.

0 to 1 is so fun :) it's always endearing to think back to when the thing you helped build was an earnest napkin sketch

Hope you have a happy It's So Over / We're So Back Day to all who celebrate 🎂
OpenAI just murdered half of SF's startups. Was an impressive DevDay today, here's everything you missed (bookmark this): 1. Apps SDK: Shopify App Ecosystem / Whop App Ecosystem but for ChatGPT. Presumably (?) with monetization down the line. Build apps that anyone can use,
