Andrej Karpathy literally shows how to build apps by prompting in 30 mins

I’m starting to get into a habit of reading everything (blogs, articles, book chapters,…) with LLMs. Usually pass 1 is manual, then pass 2 “explain/summarize”, pass 3 Q&A. I usually end up with a better/deeper understanding than if I moved on. Growing to among top use cases. On the flip side, if you’re a writer trying to explain/communicate something, we may increasingly see less of a mindset of “I’m writing this for another human” and more “I’m writing this for an LLM”. Because once an LLM “gets it”, it can then target, personalize and serve the idea to its user.

Nice quality-of-life improvement to Cursor. You can now create and save custom layouts, so Cursor will remember the exact position of sidebars, terminals, etc. We hope to make this even more customizable!

Starting to believe that the best place to use Nano Banana Pro might actually be in NotebookLM

You can now type "&" in the Claude Code CLI to start a task in the background and teleport it to Claude Code Web!

The average engineer recently learned what `grep` is due to ai coding tools

New workflow: 1. Open a voice memo app 2. Brain dump your thoughts on a topic; record it 3. Transcribe it 4. Import transcript into NotebookLM 5. Get it to generate a slide deck using Nano Banana Pro 6. See your rambling thoughts visualized into structured & beautiful slides and feel smart

Creativity is the antidote to scarcity.

Upload a meeting transcript to NotebookLM and get it to turn it into a slide deck using Nano Banana Pro. Absolutely insane.

Perplexity Comet or ChatGPT Atlas, which AI browser are you using and why?

This new Gmail smart scheduling feature is a straight +4% to global GDP

Holy shit. I’ve used ChatGPT every day for 3 years. Just spent 2 hours on Gemini 3. I’m not going back. The leap is insane — reasoning, speed, images, video… everything is sharper and faster. It feels like the world just changed, again.

The best are always learning. Read like crazy. Think alone. Keep a journal. Write stuff down the moment you see it. Review regularly. Memorize the big ideas to fluency. Attack your best ideas. And never get high on your own supply. You don't have to be gifted. You do have to be deliberate.

Group chats in ChatGPT are now rolling out globally. After a successful pilot with early testers, group chats will now be available to all logged-in users on ChatGPT Free, Go, Plus and Pro plans.

Am I out of touch with AI? I see people using subagents, skills, markdown specs, plugins, hooks, MCP servers and all that jazz. Meanwhile, I'm using AI like a caveman: ⟶ open an agent ⟶ give it a task ⟶ review the output ⟶ repeat What the heck do I miss?

AI and SEO tools I use every day: 1. Rankability - Optimize for AI search + tracking AI search performance (public release soon) 2. Replit - Build HTML-driven websites, prototypes for software, and free tools. It's scary good when you know how to use it. 3. ChatGPT / Gemini - Data analysis, editing (anything), coding, brainstorming, improve clarity of copy, etc 4. Canva - YouTube thumbs, quick graphics, decks 5. Microsoft Clarity - UX analysis 6. Google Search Console - Daily check for new, untapped topic opportunities. The new Keyword Finder 2.0 in Rankability will be fully integrated with GSC 7. Whitespark - The most beautiful local grid tracking on the market

Sam Altman says Slack has many positives, but it creates endless fake work We need an AI-native productivity suite to replace docs, slides, email, and Slack Not add-on features, but trusted agents that handle work and only escalate when needed This finally feels within reach
