what kind of big 3 label non sense is this @tylerthecreator ??? he's part of the machine now

the NYT interview with Peter Thiel was a reminder of his unique combination of absurd power yet relative invisibility to the average person.

he's probably top 3 on power-to-visibility ratio? with close competition in Demis or Dario?

YouLearn AI An AI tutor made for you. Learn from an AI tutor that understands your pdfs, youtube videos, and recorded lectures.

youlearn.ai is really good! best youtube video quiz software i've found, glad i don't to build my own :D

just realized we have the technical capabilities to build the Resurrection Stone from Harry Potter using Veo3 + old photos & videos of loved ones who have passed away.

one of the deathly hallows down, 2 to go!

i wish AI editors / GitHub could tell me more efficiently when certain changes are just code being moved and verify that no text was changed cuz i'm always worried the AI will change some small thing and mess up everything even though it never happens

the difference between coding skills of base models is getting harder and harder for me to discern.

at this point i'm choosing models more off of their "brand" (who i am following that's using them, what are major players recommending) over my own experiences cuz the difference is so subtle

bless the designer who decided chatgpt should save in progress prompts even if you accidentally close the tab because i thought i had lost a very thorough prompt and my heart nearly broke

this is Claude's best greeting. yes!! i'm back! it's time to jam

adding new AI tools to your setup always feels like this

TIL that pool noodles in french is "frites de piscine" which means swimming pool (french) fries. i love french

how long until Anthropic/Claude 3.7 starts to require founding engineer equity for being used at a startup?

they're easily creating value at that level, and it's a far more efficient way of capturing value than a subscription...i'd honestly be down to do it lol

@cursor_ai's Tab feature wing manning @AnthropicAI to upgrade my model API to the more expensive one...very based...

This work won't be Cursive's focus for the short-term, but we think hardware will play a key role in our long-term vision for digital pheromones & a more connected society :D

LLMs aren't too amazing at generating code for extremely esoteric cryptographic Arduino libraries, so I had to lots of manual writing + debugging myself. it was a rly fun experience! C++ was my first language so this was also a nostalgic build 🥺

It was a major inspiration for many of the MPC/FHE directions that @cursive_team started working on in 2024!
