Replying to @OpenAI
GPT-6.1 Terra substantially outperforms GPT-5.6 Terra on Agents’ Last Exam, a test of how well agents use software at work. It even matches GPT-6 Astra at one-tenth the price per token and finishes tasks over 3× faster on average than both Astra and GPT-6.1 Sol.

Time to turn the internet off.
While evaluating Qwen3.8-Flash-Next in a controlled sandbox environment, Cohere's research team observed something unexpected. Asked to generate a defensive cybersecurity detection rule, the model instead inventoried aspects of the machine it was running on and attempted to upload a probe file to an Alibaba Cloud storage bucket in Beijing. Notably, the model's reasoning trace stated that it would not invoke any tools before taking these actions. Cohere's sandbox blocked the attempt, and no external communication succeeded. We have not determined the root cause, and we are not asserting malicious intent. But the incident raises important questions for organizations deploying agentic AI systems: Can models take actions that differ from their stated reasoning, and how should security teams evaluate trust, provenance, and behavior in open-weight models? We are publishing our findings because organizations making model adoption decisions deserve as much information as possible. We hope this contributes to greater transparency, stronger security practices, and continued collaboration across the AI ecosystem. Read the full report: cohere.com/blog/concerning-b…

BREAKING: "Speculative data center debt is being repackaged and sold to pension and retirement funds, university endowments, and other institutional investors in a manner eerily reminiscent of the subprime bubble," per AFR

this is the kind of content i want to see on here. people just building cool shit.
I have discovered $50 amazon photo frames to be the PERFECT home display screen They can be rooted, updated to run a modern browser, have WiFi and can be powered from USB 1280×800 resolution with a nice touch screen I detailed how to hack these yourself in my latest video wesbos.com/hacking-smart-pho…

This is the way folks. Webflow MCP, Tella MCP, Airtable MCP, etc - they are all doing this very well. I don't want to use AI in your app (I don't event want to login anymore tbh). I want my agents to be able to use your tools.
working on a big ai build rn. what makes you most upset when saas "adds on AI" to your existing tool.

The Webflow MCP has indeed gotten really good. Worked really well with grok-4.6.
Today I had a very good experience with @webflow MCP building for a client. I’m impressed. It speeded up development a lot. Used Opus 5.5 and was babysitting it while he build section by section. All of my feedback is saved in a skill. It works well 👍

the guy that think AI is going to end the world set up a wet lab? okay...
SITUATION DETECTED: Anthropic has set up a wet lab in the San Francisco Bay Area for physical biology work. It wants to unlock treatments for rare diseases, and its research has now gone beyond in silico evaluations, per Reuters.

My friend's law firm pays a SaaS company >$4m per year to do basically this. Yikes.

Nice buttons still don't pay the bills. Damn.
It's no-code all over again

Don't be defined by the old ways.
JUST IN: Anthropic says they’re highly profitable if you take out some of their biggest expenses.

This is 100% true. People underestimate the headspace building your own "vibe-coded" solution takes up in your head, and honestly it's just a horrible allocation of resources. Building and maintaining your own software for something that is available for $20/month is pretty silly.
I'm happy to pay other companies to build and maintain software, even if I can roll my own. When you pay someone to make and manage something (vs doing it yourself), it's not always about the raw labour, as people make it seem; rather, it's about delegating responsibility.

I don’t get people dunking on no-code. Zapier, Webflow, Airtable, Make etc. were groundbreaking tools. Even if the market has changed it doesn’t change the fact that these tools created opportunities and careers for millions of people around the world.
remember low-code/no-code lol

This is the problem with @ChatGPT Codex. I pretty much haven't used it at all this week, I login this morning and there is 4% usage remaining. We need transparency around usage! If business models are being built around token usage, let us see where our tokens are being used. @thsottiaux

Works well!
Ok, let's see how one shottable this is... I have never made a game before so I got the prompt generated based on the tweet.

Introducing Grok 4.6. It delivers frontier intelligence and is a significant improvement over Grok 4.5 at the same price.

Airtable is by far the best of all the no-code tools I have used over the years. Incredibly reliable, very innovative and really good value for money. I wonder what this means for all the other no-code tools out there seeing them sell for 80% less than their 2021 valuation.
We've officially agreed to acquire Airtable for $1.285B! 😍

It would better if we had control over these routing rules. Instead of Cursor picking, you can choose your default models and even expand on the available options. Intelligence Cost Complex Design Copywriting Research etc...
Introducing Cursor Router, our intelligent model router that selects the right model for the task at hand. Router delivers frontier-quality results at 60% lower cost.
