VibeCamp Episode 1: Stan James, Gabriel Pickard and Jimmy (an AI agent on the call) build the show itself, live. YouTube channel, GitHub org, logo, theme song.
Watching people vibe conference turns out to be fun.

I wrote up my thoughts on truly AI-infused UI and UX -- and how we go beyond just rebuilding the same old apps, just faster
I have been thinking about how to make 'personal software' actually non-boring. -- In the age of AI there's no reason to build apps that aren't infused with some intelligence, every step of the way. -- Actually, it is still quite hard to do that right. -- That's why we need means for sharing and collaboratively iterating on our intuitions.
Adding javascript to the browser made web-apps possible -- we don't yet have a good equivalent for AI enabled web pages.
See the video below for my reasoning and a demo of what I've built to move in that direction -- a browser with a batteries included vibe-coding system and agentic environment: vibestudio.app -- a secure enough environment that you can share and personalize 3rd party agentic enabled apps.
OpenAI are shedding load surreptitiously it seems. (a) I'm seeing a 'bug' where even in auto mode it keeps asking for permission. (b) Every once in a while all ongoing sessions have their connection reset and the model stops generating. After that reset, auto mode breaks as well.
I’m rounding off the PL features, to make it usable, but already looking for input on application ideas. Certainly it could be great for email processing, maybe data analysis and also for game logic. If you have specific thoughts in these or other areas I’d be delighted to hear!

For years I’ve been interviewing data annotation workers who are the lifeblood of the AI industry. For years I’ve heard the same story: the platforms they work for wield total power, leaving them precarious & vulnerable to exploitation. A horrible example of this just happened 1/

Ration flying, ban private jets - make meat more expensive and veg free - ban cruise ships, create a de growth and circular economy - end economic growth and prioritize saving nature - stopping deforestation essential and banning bottom trawling and deep sea mining

For AI tasks like reasoning and planning, $100M in GPUs can save you an afternoon in the library.
The prince of darkness Larry Summers on the Open AI board. What a great move for the future of humanity and AI bla bla bla. 🤮
Such a deal of course wouldn't materialize immediately, but just as in Venture Capital, the sleazy warlord / strongman business is about building up relationships: Investing lines, not points.. Maybe look out for any Nazis getting very lucky in escaping the kettle? 🤷♂️
For the record, a strictly neutral and actually autonomous Ukraine is a wildly more preferable outcome, as I've seen @yanisvaroufakis write about. Not sure if it's more likely though.
If you go on r/wsb there's lots of talk of unity and "holding". I haven't seen much explanation of what it will mean to take profits,i.e. sell, even if they successfully squeeze. Wouldn't they need illegal levels of coordination to pace the selling exactly to match short buying?
So far none of the shorts wants to be the first to take the fall and go bankrupt by eating that astronomical price. How long can they hold out?
