31 things I've learned about becoming a better writer: 1. Like design, if a writer is doing their job, you never notice the writing. It's frictionless. You just keep reading. ​ 2. The best way to differentiate yourself against AI is to write with personality. Show readers your

How Zapier measures AI fluency, role-by-role

This is how people think AI will change their world.

Dear Bose, I beg of you… add a setting where my headphones turn themselves off after hours of silence. I cannot keep living this toxic relationship where I come back to my desk, and you… you’re DEAD. Please. For both our sakes. 🎧

One interesting dynamic that AI agents have is that you can more easily incorporate multiple solutions to go after the same problem in a workflow. The cost of getting a second opinion has become so cheap that there’s no reason to not deploy agents to check work, or go after

There’s going to be split between two types of teams or companies for the foreseeable future. Those that re-engineer their processes to take full advantage of AI agents with their given limitations, and those that wait until they’re good enough to not re-engineer anything. To

“VC-backed businesses make up about 77% of US public market capitalization, 81% of total patents granted by the US Patent and Trademark Office, and 92% of research and development (R&D) spend.2 Since 2001, 53% of all initial public…” — franck nouyrigat medium.com/p/how-vc-greed…

How does this ad make sense? Gatwick in Oct??? @uber explain yourself.

What’s interesting about AI agents is the unit of a task is just going to keep on growing in size over time. In code, in the past 2 years, we’ve gone from autocompleting a couple lines of code in a second, to writing hundreds or thousands of lines of code in minutes, to writing

If you're running a process that people want to hack, and you're not actively measuring attempts to hack it, it's being hacked.

One of the most fun parts of OpenAI is watching people here level up so fast and do such excellent work. We are operating at a high level across many different disciplines and many of the people doing it have never done it before, and joined us at the beginning of their career.

What todo when you're stuck in Stockholm for four days?

This is clearly correct

We’re in a window right now where there’s a huge advantage if you’re a startup or a team that takes an AI agent-centric approach to workflows. Just in coding, we see an incredible spread between in productivity gains between two seemingly only slightly different types of

Why are British actors amazing at doing American accents, but American actors are terrible at doing British accents, Australian accents, or any other accents than American?

It’s hard to explain how wide of a gap there is between everything we’re seeing and talking about here and what the rest of the world is doing. There’s usually at least a ~6 month lag for ideas or trends to escape X, and then it’s another couple years for any real adoption to

"What did you get done this week?"

With superintelligence we will need to reset education. Human labor will be contingent on our capacity to imagine and prompt and write evals instead of merely “doing the work” Unlimited human desire will take care of the rest. We just have to rewrite HOW we build.

storytelling is the ultimate compression algorithm for human attention. everything else, data, logic, tech feeds into it, but if you can’t wrap it in a compelling narrative, nobody will give a shit. people think they make decisions based on facts, but they’re mostly responding to

Fermat's Library One of the most common flaws of math textbooks is that they present only the logic, without the intuition. They give you the later, cleaned up version of the idea, which hides the way it was discovered.
