Very soon, all we will do as humans is to tell the AI what to build. Even though I love coding, I'm excited for the future where we can put the customer first.
AI writes your code. Now it talks to your users. We raised $27M from @Sequoia to build @ListenLabs. Listen runs thousands of interviews to uncover what users want, why they churn, and what makes them convert. See how @Microsoft and @canva use it:

Story behind our viral SF billboard puzzle: People on our team love puzzles and staying in the office past midnight on the weekends to work on IOI or IMO problems. So we created one ourselves to find the most obsessed engineers in San Francisco. The hard part is that LLMs

This game is not trivial to figure out as a human. I’m a bit skeptical of the Humans: 100% figure. But I’m sure LLM agents will solve it pretty soon.
Today, we're announcing a preview of ARC-AGI-3, the Interactive Reasoning Benchmark with the widest gap between easy for humans and hard for AI We’re releasing: * 3 games (environments) * $10K agent contest * AI agents API Starting scores - Frontier AI: 0%, Humans: 100%

It's always astonishing to see where flight price optimization algorithms end up. All direct flights from London to San Francisco in August cost at least $2,720, while you can book round-trip direct flights for $518 total. Business travelers still need to buy one-way, I guess.

Grok 4 still clearly fails my private "find the bug in this 50-line function" test. No model solves it today, but: - Claude 4 Sonnet & Opus at least understand the problem after giving a strong hint. - Gemini 2.5 Pro agrees with the hint but still does not fully understand the
