Today @GoogleDeepMind released a state of the art computer use model, in partnership with Browserbase. Computer use is hard to evaluate. You need reliable browser infrastructure and realistic tasks. Below, we cover how we ran these benchmarks and how you can try yourself!
Absolutely horrified by the new @Apple macOS Tahoe update. Why these extra-rounded corners, misaligned components, and completely off margins?

We’ve spent the last few months working closely with our customers, and more than ever, I’m convinced that fixing email isn’t about adding AI features or agentic tech in the inbox. We need to completely eliminate the inbox as we know it.

Storytelling is one of the most important parts of our business. Ida is the one person you want in your corner to help make sense of it all!
Today I’m launching @theagency_xyz: a storytelling studio that makes art out of your truth. We’re excited about partnering with companies that believe beauty is not optional, truth is timeless, and risk is the only path to originality.

No opinion on 9-9-6. Strong opinion on 7–8 hours of sleep. That's the ultimate productivity hack!

Two years ago, it was just my co-founder and me. I had just moved from India for the first time, and he had left his job at Tesla. Today, we’re building the future of AI memory with @mem0ai. What started with just the two of us is now growing fast, and we’re looking for exceptional people to join us in revolutionizing the AI memory space. We're #hiring across engineering, research, and developer advocacy roles. If you want to help build the memory layer for AI, let's chat. Apply from link below.
Excited to share our Manifesto at @thelobbyai Software should feel like hospitality. Imagine walking into a great hotel lobby: before you speak, the concierge knows your preferences, dinner’s booked, your favorite drink is waiting in your room. That’s the standard we’re building for work. No prompts. No setup. Lobby learns how you work and quietly handles your routine tasks. Read in the comment.

The more I talk to customers or investors, the more convinced I am that the single most important driver of long-term success is building an outstanding product. Hype, marketing gimmicks only exist to support that.

Applications are open for the next @betaworks Camp and if you’re reimagining the human-machine interfaces, you need to apply! The new theme is Interfaces: think voice-native tools, ambient agents, UI-less flows, multimodal or invisible UIs, and bold new ideas about how humans and machines connect. We went through Camp and it completely changed to trajectory of our company. The Betaworks team is the best sounding board, pushing you to think bigger and sharper while also making real things happen: intros to investors, partners, and fellow builders, and hands-on support when you need it. Also, my DMs are open if you want to chat about it. Happy to make warm intro if you fit the thesis!

AI that feels magical isn't only about optimizing LLMs performance. It’s about orchestration. Understanding that Email #3, Calendar Event #5, and Task #7 are the same thing and acting accordingly.

If your AI agent needs constant babysitting or Zap-style workflows, it’s not autonomous. It’s a glorified script. Autonomy starts with prediction, not reactivity.

Automating tasks requires way more than brute force execution. You need understand users' context, workflows, decision-making pattern and cognitive process behind them. Just wrote a new post about that ↓
