It's amazing by any measure but as far as a flying car goes they definitely misunderstood the assignment.

agent retrospectives have some of the highest ROI on token spend

I wish the AI labs would put more effort into preventing slop than hillclimbing benchmarks

the ability to read and understand pseudocode is more valuable than ever

ultrafast mode is a terrible name because there's an ultra mode and there's a fast mode and those two modes together do something different than ultrafast.

if ultrafast mode is legitimately fast enough where i can work synchronously and not break focus it could be worth the $500/mo not for daily use but for some stuff that would be a game changer

i just fixed a broken link without ai. first hand-written commit in what feels like forever. it's been a wild year.

it's mind blowing to me how often i see people committing blatant scams with their ai agents. for all the safety nets, why doesn't claude say "hey maybe you shouldn't do this because it's wire fraud and you can face criminal liability"

Really thoughtful
We instituted an official AI Writing Policy at @Clay. Massive thanks to @sophiebits on our engineering team who wrote this. Originally this was just for eng, but other teams found it so helpful we expanded it company-wide. Here are the four guiding principles: 1. You must stand behind every idea and sentence It is your responsibility to make sure that the entire document is representative of your own thoughts before you share it. 2. Writing is thinking Spending time on the writing process teaches you more about your topic. If you circumvent this process, you will walk away with a poorer understanding of the subject matter. 3. More time should be spent writing a document than consuming it If you generate a document from a short prompt then ask your readers to go through the longer output, you are disrespecting their time. They can talk to ChatGPT themselves if they want to. 4. Longer is not better AI makes it easy to generate long docs, and it loves padding them with sentences that say nothing. If you're producing docs from a short prompt, consider just sharing the prompt. You can read (and borrow) the full policy below. Hopefully we all communicate a bit more clearly now :)
