SaaS is dead! Long live Service as a Software (powered by agents)

Your job is no longer to write code, and LLMs are not here to help you write better code faster. Your job is to help the LLM write better code faster. Pretty solid advice!

Anthropic will make ~1,000 employees worth +$100m at $2 trillion market cap. There's ~11,000 Americans with $100m in investable assets. So something like 1 in 12 Americans with $100m (liquid) will be from Anthropic. If you add in Openai, maybe 1 in 7.

Astra was so great when it first came out. I don't know what happened a few weeks ago but it literally gives up all requests. Goals hit 'stalled' within minutes. Many asks just get an acknowledgement then no follow up or actual work, I come back later and have to ask it if it did anything and it says 'oh... nope sorry', this is happening near 95% of the time for me. Am I going crazy or is this happening to anyone else? I've given up using it at this point...

Slack is a very expensive and slow inter-AI communication protocol. Just sayin... 👀

Hi all, I have a new result I'm excited to share. It turns out that *all existing implementations* of softmax and cross-entropy (that's JAX, PyTorch, textbooks, etc) have a subtle bug --- two bugs, actually. A simple rewrite fixes both, and eliminates "slingshots" when grokking:

TWO months. TWO whole months. Yeah, the internet doesn't stand a chance. Pure negligence.

A month between discovery and acknowledgement. Another month between that and the patch. With this severity.

You've gotta patch your dependencies super fast because they're full of vulns (PHP, Node, eMudhra, etc), but not _too_ fast because they're full of backdoors (LiteLLM). Good luck!

This is my favorite chart on AppSumo right now. 📈 LeadOcean listed itself on AppSumo Radar. Day 1: $3,819. Day 2: $84. 😬 Day 10: $3,371. $20,560 and 120 customers in 11 days. One founder. Bootstrapped. From Nepal. Congrats @heyashishrai 👏 Building got cheap. Distribution didn't. appsumo.com/products/leadoce…

I think most people multi-tasking with agents could benefit from slowing down most of the stuff you're doing wont really matter- what's your P0? what would it look like if you gave it your full attention?

ChatGPT told me it couldn't use automation on itself (the desktop app) when I asked it to test a plugin Kind of ironic, isn't it? ... but it also told me there were no rules that said it couldn't test on the desktop app inside a sandbox! So sandbox it is, because they make the app available on Linux 💡 So Astra (ChatGPT) built me a sandbox in Docker running Chrome and ChatGPT Desktop app that it connects to via a web based VNC browser and is now self-testing 🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🌎
