    RT @spiral_xyz: What if reviewing a PR felt like talking to its author? @jackamadeo’s latest vibecoded app demos shared viewport + live voice. Ask and it answers. It’s built on Goose Development Kit using the new GPT-Live API and a Goose ACP server doing the heavy codebase lifting. Sound on 🪿

    GPT-Live-1 is now available in the API. Bring ChatGPT’s natural back-and-forth to your app, with voice agents that listen while they speak and work with the models and harness you choose.

    RT @goose_oss: Goose just won Project of the Year at RenderATL’s The Commits Award Show, recognizing it as one of the most influential, widely adopted, and groundbreaking open source projects of the past year 🏆🪿 As one of the first open source AI agents, Goose has always been built on the simple idea that the community should have a say in what an AI agent can be. Today, more than 600 contributors are defining that future together. Every contribution, experiment, issue, and idea has helped shape Goose into what it is today. Thank you to @RenderATL for the recognition, and to this incredible community for defining the future with us ❤️

    The Pony Express charged 5 dollars per package of half an ounce in 1860. That's 14 000 USD per kilogram. Or about twice as expensive as what @SpaceX charges to shoot something into space.

    RT @callebtc: When the dust settles, we'll have to talk about the fact that not a single vulnerability was found by a US frontier model. Instead, we're spending $10k a day on open weights models like Kimi K3 and Qwen 3.8 to find vulnerabilities in Bitcoin infrastructure. It's a disaster.

    Yeah that. Open models are the way to go

    🦔Microsoft canceled its internal Claude Code licenses this week after token-based billing made the cost untenable, even for a company with effectively infinite cloud resources. Uber's CTO sent an internal memo warning the company burned through its entire 2026 AI budget in just four months. American AI software prices have jumped 20% to 37%, and GitHub (owned by Microsoft) is dropping flat-rate plans for usage-based billing across its products. My Take The AI subsidy era is ending in real time. The same company that put $13 billion into OpenAI and built the Azure infrastructure powering most of Anthropic's compute just looked at the bill from a competitor's coding tool and decided it was not worth paying. That is not a productivity failure on Anthropic's end. Token-based pricing is forcing every enterprise customer to confront the actual cost of running these models at scale, and the number turns out to be far higher than the flat-rate experiments suggested. This ties directly to my Gemini Flash post yesterday. Anthropic, OpenAI, and Google all raised effective prices in the last six months. Enterprises that built workflows assuming AI costs would keep falling are now watching annual budgets evaporate in months. Two outcomes look likely from here. Either enterprises scale back AI usage to fit budgets, which slows the revenue ramp the labs need to justify their valuations ahead of IPOs, or the labs cut prices and absorb the losses, which makes the unit economics worse at exactly the wrong moment. Both paths land in the same place, the numbers stop working, and somebody has to take the writedown. Hedgie🤗

    In 2018 I took an Uberpool across Manhattan for $1.78, less than the subway. Today the same ride is $20 and nobody is surprised. Todays equivalent is @claudeai 's 200 dollar per month plan. 3 reasons the end of free tokens is near & what to do about it:

    Yup. Almost all commercial products have an open source version equivalent that is technically great but has a terrible UI. A question is of course, do you need PhotoGIMP or will an agent native GIMP be better anyway

    Un youtuber brasileño le acaba de clavar un puñal a la suscripción de Photoshop. Se llama PhotoGIMP: un parche gratuito (GPL-3.0) que convierte GIMP en una copia casi idéntica de Photoshop. Misma interfaz, mismos paneles, mismos atajos de teclado y muchísimo más espacio para tu lienzo. Tus manos ya saben usarlo sin aprender nada nuevo. ¿Por qué está explotando? - $0 en vez de $276 al año - Sin cuenta Adobe ni login - Todo se guarda en tu PC (nada en la nube) - Compatible con Windows, Mac y Linux - Se desinstala borrando una carpeta (sin rastro) Instalación ridículamente fácil: copias 9 archivos y listo. +8.8k estrellas en GitHub y traducciones de la comunidad. Uso personal y comercial 100% permitido.

    PVV got 17% of the Dutch vote. Through first-past-the-post, they win 158 of 343 districts. Through ranked-choice, 39. Under a median-voter rule, 1. Same ballots, very different countries. Democracy by another word.

    2.6B open source model generating up to a minute high quality video from one frame? That's insane! Maybe there is something to these world models after all. Can't wait to get my hands on the actual model

    well, I'm off google maps API now: -- it seems so weird to me that the default is that a maps API key can also be used for expensive inference and that @Google doesn't allow keys without billing and no budget

    I wrote a post: Every LLM contains a wildly lossy “compression” of the web. Even for URLs that never existed. I built a browser for it: the Web of Babel.

    The three most valuable companies today ($NVDA, $AAPL, $GOOG) raised around 50M together. Now Anthropic raises 10x that and it barely makes the news. Interesting times. /cc @Julie188
