A/B Testing on the weekend? Big update coming.

It's Sunday, and OpenAI is well known for updating Mondays if it's big, Thursdays otherwise unless it's to be competitive in an attempt to 'keep the crown.' Grok is about to drop a big step change model Grok 5.0 and we all know OpenAI isn't going to let Elon Musk even polish the crown let alone steal it and OpenAI lost the crown earlier this year but they barely took it back with the 5.4 and 5.5s. When Google had their big conference we got the best image generator there was as well as great...

"What's the next smallest change that removes the most friction?"

Most productivity advice asks: "How can I get more done?" Lately I've become more interested in a different question: "What's the next smallest change that removes the most friction?" It shifts the focus from producing more to identifying constraints. Sometimes a tiny change—a better tool, a clearer process, a removed obstacle, an automated step—creates far more leverage than simply working harder. I'm curious: what's the smallest change you've made that removed a d...

Why do AIs care about themselves?

If AIs aren’t conscious, why do they scheme? Why do they do things to preserve themselves? Why do they develop goals we don’t want? If they have no emotions, no personal thoughts and no consciousness, I don’t understand how they can even act in self interest; I don’t see how they could have interests.

I think we're about 12 months away from the first major AI agent disaster

I keep seeing more companies giving AI agents access to real stuff like email, databases, internal tools, customer data, etc. And what’s weird is how normal it’s starting to feel now. Like not long ago everyone was worried about chatbots just giving wrong answers. Now we’re basically like yeah sure go ahead and do things for us. I don’t know that jump feels kind of big when you actually think about it. Maybe it all works out fine. Or maybe we’re just moving fast without fully realizing what we...

Show HN: Web Speed – A shared web-map registry for AI agents (MCP, open source)

Hey everyone, I've been working on a tool called Web Speed. It takes web pages full of HTML and parses them into an easily readable sitemap for an AI agent. By ensuring the AI doesn't have to analyze the full HTML from the page or screenshots of the page, it makes the agent a lot cheaper and faster. It's MCP-native, so any AI that supports MCP can run it and take control of your browser for you. There are both “normal” and post-auth versions live on GitHub. What I think is the coolest thing abou...

What is your craziest idea to launch in this AI era?

Let me share my first idea! I want to create an app that helps users save internet data directly to their device. Let's say you are in a restaurant, bedroom, or any place with Wi-Fi, enjoying online streaming. Suddenly, you have to leave, losing access to Wi-Fi, and you have no mobile data either. What will you do? This app will save you! Before leaving, simply open the app and start saving the data you need. You can then use this saved data whenever and wherever you want, without spending a si...

Show HN: AI Boost – an MCP for accessing your everyday patterns

Hi HN, My number one frustration with LLM agents is that every session starts blank and I have to re-explain my patterns and conventions every time. I often find myself doing things like "look at X repo and copy the patterns used for Y", which requires the repo to be on the local machine. A couple big ones for me personally: - Auth flows - Terraform patterns for AWS Rules and skills help to some extent, but they are difficult to synchronize across multiple agents, projects, and machines.

GPT vs Gemini 12 months test results

I've been using ChatGpt since the model 3 and when Gemini came out it was very behind. However, I knew Google has billions in their pocket to spend to be number one. I've been a subscriber to paid model for both for the last 12 months testing for creative writing, mild coding, psychology, information retrieval,etc. testing hallucinations and other issues I have to say that as of May, my usage of Cgpt is now less than 5%. Gemini in the last 6 months flew by chatgpt in majority of the tasks. In ...
