i think jev is resonating with devs so well b/c it unlocks so many opportunities for composing ai into systems and products rather than ai _becoming_ the product/system really does feel like it was a missing primitive

Today we’re announcing our Series B. We’ve raised $200M at a $2B valuation from Greenoaks with participation from Index Ventures, Hanabi, A*, Bain Capital Ventures, CVS Health Ventures, and Definition. Our mission is to simulate all eight billion people on earth, accurately.

A good start might be creating clarity around “jailbreak” risk scoring similar to CVSS severity scores. “Jailbreak” is an overused term… some “jailbreaks” are LLM Advil and other “jailbreaks” are LLM Heroin. Also (IMO) labs should reward / celebrate discovery of novel methods.
Lots of people have known for a while that guardrails for frontier model APIs are very easily jailbroken, quite shallow and impossible to fix. They’re mostly a smokescreen and distraction, in my opinion. We need a different paradigm for AI safety!

use_figma is a huge unlock for my workflow. My favorite use case so far is to have Claude Code generate architecture diagrams to communicate complex ideas Figma is the home for shareable agent artifacts
Now you can use AI agents to design directly on the Figma canvas, with our new use_figma MCP tool and skills to teach them. Open beta starts today.

Are you tired of asking your coworkers where a design is? Same tbh. That's why we built Figma AI search, which lets you find designs using a screenshot or description. For months, search was all I thought of, so I wrote about the love we poured into it (link below!) – at Manhattan, NY

Around the time @willdepue started working on their @figma computer, I also embarked on a journey to create mine... although now I can't claim to be the first. ~3kb program memory, ~1kb ram, 18 instructions, and a Figma plugin to help compile small C programs using ELVM.

I started doing an experiment over the last few weeks. When someone says something rude or inappropriate to me, I calmly say one of these: “Hm… why would you say that?” “Hm… what do you mean by that?” “Hm… what was your goal in saying that?” The reactions I’ve gotten… wow.

There's been a lot of #ChatGPT hype over the last week — surely it wouldn't be able to handle building Figma plugins... right? ...wrong. 🤯
