So we've pivoting from a knowledge-base to enterprise-search to AI-assisted information processing.
If you need more context-aware and "trained" ChatGPT-powered work aids, with less BS output and less copy/pasting of relevant info, hit @vidbina up! We're cooking atm!
Let's geek out at @betahaus tomorrow: grab a cup ☕ & share AI stories. 🤖🧠
Been exploring how folks use ChatGPT-like AI in their day-to-day, from advisory to farming (a-f, hex 🤓) while reading arxiv papers & building @fortoolabs.
Part AMA, part therapy, part day-dreaming.
A lot of building together is just a high stakes game of animated football field-sized "Where's Waldo"!
Find: the right person to talk to about x, the next strategic play to make considering y, the right tools to use for our particular needs to achieve z, etc.
Here is @vidbina tinkering with code for a @SlackHQ bot. Sorry @slack for the at-mention mistake and wow on the handle there. 🏆
1st stream back in Berlin 🐻: tinkering w/ @slack SDKs & APIs for @formationtools experiments -- a cloaked 🥷🏿 #buildinpublic 😅 xitter.cf/i/broadcasts/1mrGmkgvy…
Imagine tracking tasks & notes directly in your git repos because they're just plaintext. 😍
Working online through lovely web experiences or your local text editor because it's just plaintext. 😍
Searching across all your code and docs from one place because... well...😍

Some UI magic ✨ for @formationtools that Jessy cooked up. Thanks @barret_jessy for the great effort here. This is at least 10x better than that scrappy prototype UI that we have atm. Won't wait to start implementing this. 🥳

Just submitted a livecoding (and hopefully streaming) talk for @WeAreDevs World Congress '23. Geeking out about @formationtools, other devtools, Emacs, LM's (GPT-ish, and FLOSS alts) and whatnot. Open to ideas!
If you have things to share, submit yours @ sessionize.com/wearedevelope…

Thing that stands out about current AI buzz is an unfamiliar realistic optimism, about the field specifically and tech generally.
Still very early days (and plenty of concerns!) for AI, but seems like people are sensing tremendous opportunities personally and for society.
