"It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends on his not understanding it" — Upton Sinclair
I think this quote explains a lot of the coping that's going on, but I also think it's wrong! The failure to understand is what'll erase the paycheck.

This is an amazing writeup on how you are probably not using your agent traces correctly

Holy crap.
Rick and Morty just explained Jev AI to me better than any tech demo could.

good prompt for the lorge models
> can you find places where we are fighting the frameworks we are using, reinventing things unnecessarily (while still keeping our strict supply chain posture), relying on deprecated behavior, buggy, or needlessly complex? any tests that don't pull their weight which if removed could significantly simplify the code?

The Rosalind Workbench has been out for a week now - show me the coolest thing you've built with it!
Coolest project gets 1 free year of ChatGPT Pro!
Either comment here or quote tweet me to submit. Provide screenshots and the Rosalind plugins you used to make it happen!

Crazy: A migration Asana's own engineers had scoped at five years took OpenAI's Codex agents about a week and a half.
The job was ripping out Enzyme, an obsolete React testing framework that blocked every attempt to upgrade the company's frontend and that nobody had been willing to touch, because the estimate ran to five years of engineering and roughly $6 million in staffing.
Up to four Codex agents worked in parallel on separate copies of the codebase from a five-sentence prompt, with engineers reviewing their proposals twice a day. The whole thing came in at roughly $12,000 in model and infrastructure costs.
So yeah, literally everything is accelerating.

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but:
If you’re still yelling, insulting, and gaslighting your agents…
YOU’RE THE PROBLEM

Don’t suffocate your Mac mini trying to make your crustacean 🦞 have sublime memory.
Aura runs lightweight on your local machine, and you can give it any of your raw data directly to implement RAG to your OpenClaw setup.

I think you might appreciate this, i just posted: xitter.cf/itsJaimeMedina/status/…
Lots of talk about AI coding workflows. Not a lot of "here's exactly how I do it."
I'm sharing my exact workflow for using 3 different ai agents (claude code, codex, gemini) build, challenge, and fix each other's work.
Nothing fancy, just plain vanilla cli communication to ship features for @FileGrabLink , so lets break it down in this thread:

sonnet 4.5 just mass-produced $23,400 in local business contracts.
in one weekend.
here's exactly what happened:
friday night i made a list of 30 local businesses within 15 miles.
not tech companies. not startups.
a laundromat.
a pest control guy.
a dentist office.
two landscapers.
a funeral home.
a dog groomer.
a commercial cleaner.
a physical therapy clinic.
a pool company.
saturday morning i called 12 of them and asked one question:
"what's the most annoying part of your day?"
every single one had an answer within 4 seconds.
the pool company: "we lose 11 jobs a week because nobody follows up cancellations."
the PT clinic: "insurance verification takes 3 hours every morning."
the cleaning company: "we quote in 2 days. our competitor quotes in 2 hours."
i didn't pitch anything.
i didn't mention AI.
i didn't say the word "automation."
i said: "what if that was fixed by monday?"
then i opened synta, typed exactly what they told me, and built each workflow in 4-11 minutes while they watched.
results from saturday alone:
→ pool company: $2,500 setup + $500/mo retainer
→ PT clinic: $3,800 (saving them $19K/yr in labor)
→ cleaning company: $2,200 setup + $400/mo
→ dog groomer: $450 one-time
→ pest control: $1,800 setup + $300/mo
5 closed. 7 more scheduled for next week.
total: $10,750 upfront + $1,200/mo recurring
projected year 1: $23,400+
zero proposals.
zero decks.
zero "let me get back to you."
they watched it work. they paid on the spot.
i documented the entire framework:
→ the 1-question discovery script
→ all 6 copy-paste workflow prompts
→ what to charge (pricing guide by complexity)
→ synta MCP setup (how every workflow self-heals)
comment "LOCAL" and i'll send the full PDF.
consultants charge $15K for a discovery workshop.
i just gave you the playbook for free.

my landlord works in software at an AC company on their internal warehouse logistics tools
the company banned LLM usage reflexively for "security"
you might think oh they'll fall behind and their competitors will crush them
except they're so dominant they already own all their competitors
people really are not ready for how slow the world moves

One guy, coding alone at 5am, built the fastest-growing GitHub repo in history. 194,000 stars. Faster than React, Linux, and Kubernetes combined.
OpenAI, with thousands of engineers and billions in compute, couldn’t build it first. Steinberger connected Claude’s API to WhatsApp in an hour one night in November 2025. He called it a toy. Three months later, Meta’s Zuckerberg is DMing him on WhatsApp and Altman is offering Cerebras compute to win him over.
The math tells the whole story. Steinberger was spending $10,000-$20,000 a month of his own money, operating at a loss, routing sponsorship dollars to dependencies instead of his own pocket. OpenAI spent $13 billion of Microsoft’s money. And the solo dev’s agent framework went more viral than anything OpenAI shipped.
Sam calling him “a genius with a lot of amazing ideas” is doing a lot of heavy lifting. This is an acqui-hire of a project that proved OpenAI’s biggest vulnerability: the agent layer doesn’t need to be built by the model provider. Any developer with an API key and a messaging app could build a more compelling agent experience than the companies training the models. Steinberger proved it.
“OpenClaw will live in a foundation as an open source project” sounds reassuring until you remember that Chrome technically has Chromium too. Steinberger himself made the comparison. The open source version gets maintenance. The real agent capabilities get folded into ChatGPT’s product roadmap.
Sold his last company PSPDFKit for $100M+. Spent three years doing ayahuasca and traveling. Came back, failed at 43 projects, then built the most important open source AI agent on project 44.
OpenAI hired the guy who proved you don’t need $10B to build the agent future. You just need to ship faster than the committee can approve a product spec.
Peter Steinberger is joining OpenAI to drive the next generation of personal agents. He is a genius with a lot of amazing ideas about the future of very smart agents interacting with each other to do very useful things for people. We expect this will quickly become core to our product offerings.
OpenClaw will live in a foundation as an open source project that OpenAI will continue to support. The future is going to be extremely multi-agent and it's important to us to support open source as part of that.
