Who would have thought that asking to connect would lead to meeting some really cool people on X. Had some cool interactions with you all. I feel like this is what social media was supposed to be all along. Thank you! Last time today, but for always: "Happy to connect" ✌️

Reminder: the state of AI as we know it only began less than a year ago. We're watching the future of Computer Science form in realtime. Take it all in.

OpenAI knows that optimising for value is the long play. Thanks guys. Still a fan btw - come back soon. Once you guys get tired of "pacing the frontier", I'll be right here with my wad of cash and bag of coins 💸💰
Day 16/ You can now cache for 12h in the API and for logged in users across Codex & Work we keep cache forever and you don’t have any penalty for coming back to an old conversation or resuming after a few hours and are now guaranteed to hit the cache.

RE: Hermes + Cua Spaces I'm noticing a trend here. First it was just agents, then it was agents using browsers then it was agents orchestrating then it agents using browsers then it's agents using your computer then it's agents with their own sandboxes either locally or in the cloud.
1/ Hermes can now launch Cua Spaces. When a task needs a computer, Hermes creates a Space on your Mac, Windows PC or Linux box, does the work there, and deletes it when it's done. You and your team can jump into the same Space while it works.

RE: Takku - transcription app Check out Takku by @MameliFilippo - It's a transcription app that writes notes directly into your Obsidian vault. Will be trying it out im some of my meetings check out takku.app/
I've been using my transcription app for a few weeks now, at work and outside of it, and I think it's time to introduce it properly. It's called Takku, and this is the site: takku.app It has replaced Granola for me, and I'm not going back. It's lighter, it's faster, and I don't run into the limits of Granola's free plan. It also costs next to nothing: with GPT-6 Luna, Haiku 5.5 or DeepSeek, an hour-long meeting costs cents. I optimized it for the Mac and didn't add any useless features. I want it to do one thing and do it well. The Unix principle. The latest addition is Hooks: when a meeting is ready, Takku runs a script of yours. That's how it plugs into the rest of your system, for example by publishing the meeting to Notion. A few colleagues and friends are already using it, and the feedback has been good so far.

RE: Overalls - AI First Platform by the Ralph loop guy. My countryman Geoff Huntley building out his own ghost (or is it cat) in the machine (embedded model with MicroVM access)! Gonna check out overalls.dev later today to find out more.

Pretty happy with Claude Code's performance and uptime ATM. @AnthropicAI got the server resources issue under control?

Hey! Pete's doing it, so am I!
Moved to tsrs over the weekend. Drop-in replacement. Around 5x faster for OC. Kind of amazing that it took Microsoft a team and two years to rewrite the TS compiler in go, and now you can just let an agent rip and get sth significantly better within weeks.

I remember when I first set Win98 up at my house for my bro and I off a burned copy of Windows 98 CD from the new group of friends I had met. It was only for a couple of years, but they were the best years. FFWD 25 years later we're creating homages to that magical decade. oh yah... and @herdrdev is awesome.
i heard you guys want a herdr app...

RE: Minimax M3.1 Flash is out! Frontier-level results at budget pricing. 5 Things to know: - 73.7% DeepSWE 1.1 - Scored 82% at CyberGym - $0.15 in, $0.60 out / 1M tokens - Leads open weight models in computer use - Multimodal!
MiniMax M3.1 Flash: Space Performance + Bunny Speed 🚀🐰 Yes, Space Bunny - which has topped global leaderboards with 200T+ tokens - was an earlier version of M3.1 Flash. 💰Redefining the performance economics of agentic AI. M3.1 Flash achieves frontier-level intelligence across key tasks such as Cowork (Automation-Bench: 62%; ALE: 30%), Coding (DeepSWE: 74%) and Visual Reasoning (BabyVision: 91%), at 1/3 the cost of M3 and 3x the speed. API pricing (flat rate): $0.15 / $0.60 per 1M input/output tokens, with cache reads at $0.015 / 1M tokens. Model weights will arrive on Oct 23. API: platform.minimax.io M Plan: minimax.io/m-plan MiniMax Code for desktop: agent.minimax.io/download

So I've been playing around with plan ref tools - a persistent planning tool for agentic coding - more on this another time. In doing so, I found that claude desktop now supports linux - amazing. If you're a linux user and have a claude sub, claude.com/download

Yet another one. We keep getting these reports on how great it is. So happy to see it. Let's find a way to standardise te quality of these open weight models.
DeepSeek V4.1 Flash 1017 just matched Opus 5.5 on long horizon browser use. 19x cheaper 👀 > 75/100, same as Opus 5.5, almost Astra level > $0.22/task vs $2.35/task > Sol it still SOTA, but it's close The new pareto frontier 🔥

🚨 October Release (1017) DeepSeek V4.1-Flash A different version of the DeepSeek V4.1 Flash model has been relesed and is actually going to be one of the first legitimate Open Weight contenders for frontier based off the benchmarks alone.
🚀 DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash-1017 is here! Stronger benchmark performance, faster task completion, and shorter outputs than the previous version—a Pareto improvement in performance and cost. Now live on our website, app, and API. 🛠️ Optimized for @DeepSeekHarness, Tencent CodeBuddy, WorkBuddy, and more. Upgrade to DeepSeek Harness v0.2.1-rc.1 or later for the best experience with the new model. 1/4

I've been using the Sep flash model since it came out and it's already solid, thisis an improved version of that! The model has been optimised for use with @DeepSeekHarness. Disappointingly, they only provide Desktop for Mac and Windows only - with web only Linux support☹️

It's all in the prompt - all this time, I've been using the term "duck lips" instead of "cute kissy face"! Now I know that THAT was the issue all along.
Prompt: A highly realistic mirror selfie of a stylish young woman inside a modern elevator with warm metallic bronze walls. She has a short, wavy brunette bob with natural highlights, soft facial features, and a playful expression as she closes one eye and makes a cute kissy face toward her phone. She wears a fitted royal-blue cropped T-shirt, light-wash high-waisted jeans, and a charcoal-gray sweater draped casually over her shoulders. A delicate gold necklace, dark burgundy nail polish, subtle tattoos on her arms, and a sleek black leather handbag complete her outfit. She holds a light-blue smartphone in one hand while posing naturally in front of the elevator mirror. Warm ambient lighting, realistic skin texture, natural facial details, authentic body proportions, crisp fabric textures, accurate reflections, elegant casual fashion aesthetic, shot on a high-end smartphone camera, ultra-sharp focus, HDR, 8K quality, photorealistic, candid -style photography, no artificial beauty filters, no CGI, no text, no watermark.
