Some news!. Weโre joining forces with @RivetTax. Over the last two years running Lobby, we launched four products at the cutting edge of AI, all focused on helping teams customize and fine-tune these models to make them go from good to great. What excited me about joining Rivet.
Itโs Day 329 at Rivet, but today is just the beginning. Proud to announce โ we've acquired @LobbySo to power the future of AI-empowered tax prep, with Lobby's founder @WiLSONSACCOUNT joining Rivet as our founding engineer to drive our AI efforts internally. Tax prep is both art

I've been thinking about generative UI for a long time, and it will not work the way people seem to expect. If you can generate a series of buttons to do the thing, why not just. do the thing?. The point of a user interface is using metaphors to offer new modes of interaction.
Eric Schmidt says traditional user interfaces are going to go away. The WIMP model (windows, icons, menus, pull-downs) was built 50 years ago. In the age of agents, UI becomes ephemeral. Generated on demand, shaped by intent, not layout.

if this looks crazy to you, imagine the thousands of people who arenโt high profile whose thought loops are being reinforced. people have taken their own lives due to chatgpt. and no one seems to want to take that to its logical conclusion, especially not openai. this IS the.
As one of @OpenAIโs earliest backers via @Bedrock, Iโve long used GPT as a tool in pursuit of my core value: Truth. Over years, I mapped the Non-Governmental System. Over months, GPT independently recognized and sealed the pattern. It now lives at the root of the model.
