I'm seeing way bigger productivity gains from building personal desktop apps than personal web apps. My personal super desktop app is insane. Saves me hours/wk.

RT Agent Native Devin is overlooked. Soon OpenAI is removing their models from Cursor. It will be the only superapp left with all the different models. Plus they acquired @interaction, and are most certainly working on their own super-app to rival GrokBot, Muse, and GPT Work. Don't sleep on @cognition

It's true...

RT Agent Native Only 115 minutes of focus to learn codex. That's all it takes to start using agents in your business. YouTube Link below

this is the coolest thing i've seen created by AI.

GPT-6 Codex + Open Motion Tracking Ring = ? Let's see what we can create over the next few weeks. It's time to experiment with @agent_hardware. Day 1

RT Agent Native This Github repo lets you jailbreak the new Siri on mac, and change the model to claude or GPT model https://github.com/mpociot/claude-siri-ai

RT Agent Native Hardware New AI assistant wristband just dropped. Imagine if Muse, Grokbot, or Instinct had a wristband that let you interact with your agent just by talking to your wrist. It can handle tasks for you, and you can activate note-taking mode by tapping it three times. Very interesting.

Very ambitious and very cool. Will definitely try it. https://x.com/zach_yadegari/status/2099894590723465295

👀

RT Agent Native Hardware The iPhone Duo will be an AI Agent Controller.

muse spark 1.3 is such a fun model to use.

RT Agent Native Hardware This Meta Ray-Ban Display demo uses a wristband to recognize the gestures. Watch how little hand movement this takes. Tap your fingers to select. Swipe your thumb to move through the menu. A tiny controller you can wear all day… this is the kind of input that makes personal AI hardware interesting.

RT John KM (YouTube Strategy) You need to learn Astra ASAP @rileybrown If you watch ONE video in your entire lifetime, make it this one. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ifz8NGHuHtY

yep.

RT Agent Native The 28 things you need to know about Codex when starting out. https://agentnative.inc/resources/28-things-to-know-about-codex

Finally found a use for my iPad... Not only can i use the GPT remote to use codex... I can fully control my mac running at home 24x7. Will be setting this up on my Iphone Duo when it launches too Making a 90 min video talking about this full setup this later this week.

RT Agent Native Microsoft is onto something here.

RT Agent Native Introducing @agent_hardware, welcome to the family.

RT Alexandr Wang muse is super fast ⚡️⚡️⚡️

Trying meta muse. Mostly to test the model. I can’t believe how fast it is.

Currently… all of the frontier companies, and others, are experimenting with different types of cloud computers that power GrokBot, GPT Work, Meta Muse, Claude Cowork, and countless others. It’s hard to tell what works best, so I’m limiting my use of the above-mentioned tools to experimentation. I’m not committing to any one of them because I don’t know what the right cloud agent setup is yet… nobody does. Especially for business. What I do know is that macOS is elite. Codex + Astra can do basically anything on a Mac. I can remotely control Codex from my phone, iPad, or another lightweight laptop. My Mac has 48GB of RAM, it’s fast, it has my browser with all the accounts I need already signed in, and I can fully control the computer remotely from any device. Codex is getting scary good at controlling advanced software through computer use, like DaVinci Resolve and Premiere. It has access to all of my videos on an external hard drive, and it’s plugged into all of the tools I use for work, like Notion and Google Drive. This setup is more powerful than OpenClaw, and more predictable. It is however, token guzzling.

RT @jason Get ready for all of the investors in frontier model companies to suddenly flip to regulatory capture mode today Their investments in frontier model companies are currently at risk/capped because the biggest buyers of tokens are embracing open-source models: vertical AI companies, the government and enterprises That’s all this is about: stopping open source — which I’ve been saying on the pod for two years If you want safety, you want disclosure — and open source is the ultimate disclosure process

the amount of money i've spent on tokens the past week is disturbing...

This seems very interesting…

RT Muhammad built a small library where an LLM creates its own tools at runtime its a part of a bigger side project ive been working on where things get physical 😏 https://github.com/MZULALI/toolhost

If the GPT Work tab was instead called “Codex” it would be MORE approachable for non technical people. Codex sounds futuristic. It’s fun to say. It feels like I’m about to use the best model in the world. Codex is such a good name. 10/10. Work, and Cowork are both bad names.

This realization hit me like a truck in January of this year. I was vibe coding an app that used 2 external APIs to solve a specific problem. Then, while I was building it, I realized… the agent that was building the app could just use those APIs more easily than the static app ever could. Then I thought… “A normie wouldn’t set that up.” Then I thought… wait, they won’t have to. The end state of ChatGPT is just AGI solving its users’ problems. Reactively and proactively, no matter what they are. Whatever interface is needed will be spawned on command.

I don’t think people realize how much people are searching for Astra and GPT 6 on YouTube. If you are a developer and want to get into content you should open up a video recording software and record how you use GPT6 for coding. RIGHT NOW. Theres no good technical videos on it right now that actually walk through how to use Astra.

If you guys aren't following what @bilawalsidhu is doing on YouTube you are missing out. The dude "Vibe Coded Palantir" named it "Gods eye View", open sourced it, built a community of people who LOVE the tool, and is now turning it into a startup. I've been saying this for 2 years... Get to the edge of tech. Learn cool stuff. (Like actually experiment and learn) Share that cool stuff online. And you may "accidentally" start a movement.

Doing an “algorithm shuffle” today. Following and subscribing to people I don’t necessarily agree with to get out of my current algo on YouTube, x and podcasts. Let’s see how this goes. I also want to explore new niches. Who do you follow that talks about robotics, hardware gadgets (esp with AI, 3D printing, and unreal engine? I want to experiment with these things over the next year.

Siri will be the only agent on your phone that securely and seamlessly integrates with every app you have. Apple wins.

Apple just announced that Siri will be able to take actions inside third-party apps. Talk to Siri, and it can take actions those apps make available through App Intents. And since vibe coding mobile apps is solved (it is), you’ll be able to create your own apps and control them through Siri. “Hey Codex, build me an app that tracks my workouts, finances, and meals. Make every action controllable through Siri via App Intents.”

New iPhone Duo looks awesome. Can i build duo apps and run it on Duo Simulator yet on my macbook? if not, when?

Literally thought the same thing. I want a dedicated computer running codex 24x7, this as my phone and computer that can remotely control codex.

RT Agent Native Just like that, Apple takes the lead in the personal AI assistant race.

can someone unpack this and explain it to me like i'm 10?

Is one person writing and distributing these threads to all the VCs invested in Instinct? is there some quota that all the VCs need to hit? I would love to hear about the BTS for this UGC campaign.

Felt like this a lot. Then I left SF, went to NYC and spent less time on X. And I realized everything is fine.

Just filmed my GPT-6 Codex video... Took 9 hours to film i'm EXHAUSTED. omg... Also latest Astra video went crazy.

RT Agent Native This is a big deal. You can give the codex browser access to 1Password. This allows codex to login to all of your apps. With the Remote feature on ChatGPT which lets you control codex… you can have access to this 24-7 An always on Codex plugged into ALL of your apps.

Prescient

Become Agent Native.

If you don’t have AI psychosis you aren’t paying attention.

My biggest complaint with codex is I spend too much time searching for old chats sessions.

RT Riley Brown 👀 👀 👀

👀 👀 👀

RT Agent Native You can now control your iPhone from Codex. Tested this. It works great. This means you can run Codex with GPT-6 and give it its own phone that it can control. ~/ npx @swmansion/argent init

Hey @OpenAI please add webhook triggers for scheduled tasks on codex, thanks :)

People are sleeping on how fun building video games with AI is. You can make video games... then tell your agent to make them multiplayer... then send a link to your friends and you can just play. THINK ABOUT THAT... I have not played video games for 10 years....

RT Agent Native Prediction - the next 3 months we will see an explosion of editors adopting AI. Not in any new AI editing platform. The ones people already use. Learn premiere Learn Davinci Learn Final Cut

RT Agent Native wow... He gave GPT-6 Astra a PDF of an entire 10-acre estate… It recreated the estate in Blender, then added it as a playable map in the Call of Duty-style game he’d built the day before. It even added a helicopter he could fly and shoot from. 1 Prompt. (Full video in Quote)

It's official I am feeling the AGI... While testing GPT-6 Astra I had 7 key realizations: (Realization 1 & 2 - I gave Astra a 38 page PDF of an estate, and it it turned it into a blender file, then made it into a playable call of duty map in one prompt) 00:00 Intro 1) 00:42 AI is better at 3D graphics than humans 2) 05:38 Astra creates high quality video games 3) 07:13 Vibe coding is solved 4) 12:43 Computer use is insane 5) 15:28 Self-Testing gets way better 6) 18:18 GPT 6 is much better w/ Codex 7) 20:18 Need a 24/7 Mac Mini Running Codex

Agreed.

RT Agent Native Very useful tool that’s built into ChatGPT and Codex. It can none pick up on your writing and what sounds like you. Very useful for: - Email Automation - Drafting Social Posts - Writing newsletters & More

I said this to some friends the other day... The future of software is going to look like Spotify (to the end user) Pay monthly subscription get access to thousands of high quality apps. No long paywalls that prey on your insecurities, and deceive you into paying 11.99 / week.

Hot take: You should learn the basics of video editing... AI is about to get really good at Davinci, Premiere, After Effects, and more. If you have no experience in the timeline, that will be equivalent to vibe coding with no coding experience. The timeline is the codebase. And... with AI, you can learn these platforms so quickly. When you get stuck just ask AI what to do. And you only need to know the basics. I'd start here w/ davinci or premiere - How the timeline works - Sequences and nested sequences - How audio tracks and mixing works - How keyframes and animations work - How to cut, trim, and pace your videos - How to color grade videos - How to layer B-roll, text, and graphics - How effects, transitions, and masks work - How to frame, crop, and guide the viewer’s attention

Someone should build this for knowledge work.

RT Agent Native The stakes are rising. Vibe coding is about to go physical.

We are moving out of the remotion + hyperframes era when it comes to video editing. GPT 6 is starting to get good at davinci relive and premiere.

Spaghetti Bench is Back!

Startup Idea: Make a platform that hosts video games and makes them multiplayer. Don't build an agent that builds video games. Waste of time. Build an agent native app that allows me to go to your site, copy a link, paste it into codex, claude or grok and say... "Please make this game multiplayer so i can play it with my friends" And their agent will look at your docs and efficiently host and list the game on your platform. Any type of game, just get the little things right like real time db, latency, and any other small details that make the games more fun. Have a little friction as possible. And make it free. After you get enough people on the platform implement a GAMEBUCKS... or something and let people add purchases to their games, and take a cut of that. You'll find ways to monetize. But only do games, and make the games on the platform discoverable.

RT Agent Native The GPT Sites feature is very underrated... Most don't realize that it has built in auth, storage, db, and more. Best use case right now is to create a public site for lead capture with an admin dashboard. Specify that you want your ChatGPT email to be the admin, everyone else just sees the form. Full prompt below:

Gemini is the only AI that can analyze videos quickly and accurately. Gemini can watch full 30-minute videos, pay close attention, and analyze them in seconds. It can WATCH the video. This is very useful for content workflows. The problem is that Gemini (right now) is not great at everything else. So at @agentnative_ we bundled that capability into a skill and gave it to Codex. Our editors use this before they start editing, and it makes the process about 2x faster. Which is insane.

RT Agent Native This skill allows Codex w/ GPT 6 Astra to fully analyze videos. This is Gemini's best feature, and you can turn it into a skill that any agent can use. (This works with Claude and GrokBot as well) All you need is a Gemini API Key. Full Skill below:

For the past 2 hours I've been streaming a call of duty game that i built on with ai, and in between matches we've been making changes to the game, adding killcams weapons, buildings and more... absolutely wild

haha ok this probs won't work but lets play... https://modern-singularity-2.vercel.app/#invite=-V8-PfLkYEGyKFwd7aJ4t23LogFH_pIz

GPT 6 Astra Call of Duty https://x.com/i/broadcasts/1NGaronzolqJj

Hahah this is sick. Going to design my new studio with this.

It’s time for a remake of my codex complete guide video from 6 months ago. Just got a dedicated Mac mini so i can always remote into it. What are your favorite features of Codex?

Who wants to play Modern Singularity 2 tomorrow?

It’s official. I’m not sure I can evaluate models like this any more. What am I going to do? find the edges of its capabilities? LMAO! I don’t even know how I would begin to do that. From my perspective… this model can just DO EVERYTHING. That little phase of vibe coding where we would copy and paste the error back into the prompt box is done. I miss it, it made me feel seen. Like I mattered. GPT6 is always checking its own work taking screenshots evaluating itself until it’s satisfied with the result. Additionally, Codex has computer history and already knows my preferences… it’ll add little things my projects based on my preferences. It’s truly a remarkable experience. Im speechless.

Where should I host a video game if i expect to get 1000s of users. Theoretically...

I’m in disbelief right now. 12 months ago I remember making flappy bird with AI in 2-3 prompts and being blown away. Now it can make a call of duty game. One that’s actually fun… I played for like 2 hours today and in between matches I would have GPT 6 make changes… I genuinely think gaming will be the mass onboarding to AI. It’s just too much fun at this fidelity.

RT Agent Native Oh my… Astra can build a high quality call of duty style game in just a few hours.

RT Riley Brown Built this with Astra (GPT 6) this AM.

Built this with Astra (GPT 6) this AM.

One year ago I was using the "Flappy Bird Benchmark" in one prompt... how well could AI recreate flappy bird. Now, I'm using the Call of Duty benchmark. Can't wait to show how well a different AI did. Another video soon.

RT Agent Native happy astra-day for all who celebrate.

Codex with browser is still goat for knowledge work.

RT Agent Native We are NOT done. There’s even more.

Very cool

RT Emily Lambert Will definitely be adding an email and credit card to my @bot today.

RT Agent Native Give your GrokBot an Email and a Credit Card. with @agentmail and @link https://agentnative.inc/resources/grokbot-email-and-credit-card

RT Agent Native Gemini just released their best model yet. So much has happened this week, and somehow, there’s still so much more to come.

I gave my @bot his own email and credit card... (you can to, it takes 5 minutes) The most underappreciated feature of grokbot imo is the "webhook trigger" for routines. When my bot receives an email, it automatically runs. I can forward emails to him. I can put him on email chains. as soon as he gets an email, he runs a routine. Oh and he also has a credit card and can buy things, using @link ... 00:00 Intro 01:20 Part 1: Giving the Agent an Email @agentmail 02:55 Creating the GrokBot (Meet Jimmy) 04:18 AgentMail Plugin Setup 07:05 Setting Up Email Webhooks 12:15 Part 2: Giving the Agent a Credit Card (Stripe Link) 14:42 Testing: Buying from Amazon via Email 17:27 Recap: How It All Works

Who's tryna play cod?

RT Riley Brown Re One more prompt... and now we have voice track, bigger map, more enemies and they are smarter. Prompt: --- ok let's do one more pass to make it better... - Please use the vercel gateway to get the elevenlabs api and i want you to add voice tracks exactly like they do in call of duty. - Please make this map larger and make it 8 player free for all. Extend the map out. - Do a quality increase make the enemies smarter and make them look more realistic with the gun and just make the game better in general idk. ----

Are you kidding me... 3 prompts on Fable 5.1 $218 lol.

I've been growing increasingly annoyed with model releases recently... but wow this is insane.

Ok this wild.

nvm.

👀👀 what is bro (me) talking about.

RT Agent Native Mythos 5.1 is here. And guess what.. And the explosive week has only just begun.

RT Agent Native I don't think people realize how insane this is. Runway just announced the first "Interface World Model". This is not vibe coding. Because, well... there's no code at all. The image is the application. The interface is trained to change as you interact with it.

RT Agent Native Anthropic is about to IPO And Trillions of dollars are on the line

Okay we're still very early with giving agents credit cards... @link

This is a huge deal, and I hope this comes to all video editing platforms soon. Basically every single edit you make on the timeline is translated into code. You can then, turn your changes, no matter how long, into skills that can be repeated. The average person probably won’t get much value from this… but a 10X editor who learns this, will be able to do the work of 20 video editors. https://x.com/konstipaulus/status/2093344586315747706/video/1
