Nice! This works!
Everyone said "Hey Grok" was impossible on iPhone. Even Grok said Apple keeps wake words for Siri only. So I kept digging, and I found a way. Now I just say "Hey Grok" and Grok Bot voice chat opens. No extra apps, no cost, all built into iOS.
How to set it up:
1. Make sure your Grok Bot app is up to date
2. Shortcuts app → + → Add Action → search "Grok Bot" → pick "Start Voice Chat with Bot"
3. Settings → Accessibility → Vocal Shortcuts → Set Up → pick that shortcut → type "Hey Grok" and say it 3 times
4. In the shortcut's details, turn on "Allow Running When Locked"
If your phone is locked, iOS asks for one tap first. If Face ID already unlocked it, it's fully hands-free.

We wanted @bot to hang out in our family Telegram group, so I hacked together a small bridge.
Rough around the edges, but it's open source (MIT) if it helps anyone: github.com/eladb/grokbot-tel… @bot

If you didn't feel the ongoing revolution, here is my second project I built with jev.
Your software is drastically outdated. It contains a lot of instructions your CPU executes one by one. Why if we can simply ask Jev for the next instructions to execute
Introducing Jevassembler!
It is a new approach to execute something on CPU. You don't need to wait for code to be written, you don't need to compile anything and YOU DON'T NEED CODE.
You just give it a task and Jev predicts the next instruction to execute. In runtime.
who needs compilers if you have AI
We are seeing issues with @supabase realtime updates again (basically rows are inserted to the table but updates are not received in realtime consumers). Anyone experience similar issues?
anyone seeing issues with @supabase database realtime updates? we are getting only partial notifications for some reason...

@emeshbi it was a great idea, sorry to see it didn't work out, very excited to see what you end up doing next!

This chart is insane. AI has now enabled the creation of the fastest growing software product maybe of all time.
Really enjoyed this paragraph from the @deepseek_ai paper. Makes intuitive sense that learning can make models smarter. Eventually that's how we humans work...

This makes me really happy! Pulumi now has full support for AWS CDK constructs makes it easier for more people to leverage the powerful abstractions built in the CDK ecosystem :-)
Now who’s picking this up for Terraform/OpenTofu? @skorfmann?

re:Invent keynote was good this year. Amazing to see how after all these years, EC2 and S3 are still the heart and soul of the cloud.
Also: loved the visual design. Very very slick and clean and the motion was amazing!
Also: I froze to death.
