Today, we're shipping real-time graphics. Using Sol 6.1 Ultrafast we can generate custom overlays, diagrams, and even interactive 3D scenes right on a user's screen, no chat. It's a new visual interface for AI. Here's me learning about LLMs + hardware. Demo:

I don't think we should fight. The two companies are complementary. Since you're not doing this AI stuff, I really think Snowflake should consider getting its AI tokens through Databricks. You can get both cheap OSS models as well as frontier (OAI/Ant/Gemini/Grok) models from our platform. It all goes through Unity Gateway which has Smart Routing, Budgets, and Access Control. You can even use Omnigent with any harness, including CoCo. Most of our customers used this to reduce token spend ~30% last few months while token count went up. Genie lets you then track, control, manage that spend, all your financials, marketing, etc. Quick POC?

Today, we're announcing a huge milestone for Willow. Over 5 BILLION words dictated. 100 MILLION minutes saved from typing. That's equivalent to: - 1.7 million hours saved - 69,444 days of productivity - 190 years of continuous work To celebrate, we've launched the Willow Productivity Leaderboard: willowvoice.com/leaderboard You can now see where you rank, how much time you've saved, and how you stack up against other Willow users.

We brought Touch to the Mac! From the all-new iPad mini to the 14-inch MacBook Pro and iMac... and now MacBook Pro with PROLED XDR Display and Touch, creators have new tools to do their best work yet.

I like my agents, I don't want yours. My agents need more tools, more data, more capabilities. Sell me things I can give my agents. Don't sell me a worse agent.

tech debt is interest-free with agents because you can rebuild the whole thing from scratch anytime with near-certain success. in fact you will end up with a much better system every time you rebuild. (if typescript compiler can be rebuilt overnight then your saas can too)

we remain in the autocomplete / early claude code era of enterprise workflow automation, but not for long

so bullish on this thesis and on divyansh. this is going to be huge 🚀🚀

It's become much easier to recruit, manage and retain AI agent founding engineers vs human ones! Who wants to work for the 0.5-1% of the equity pool if they can be a founder instead and own 30%+? God Bless the AI agent founding engineers who have no such ego!

the easiest way to have the AI laggard catch up is to have agents working in your workspace. If your AI-forward employees manage their agents in a shared workspace with all of their teammates, including the AI laggards, the laggards will soon understand what is possible with these agents and start using agents themselves

Just spoke to the Head of AI at a huge company. The #1 thing they're struggling with is... what do I do with the AI laggards at our company? Like most companies, they’ve found that a Super Pareto Principle is true within their org. 10% of their employees are responsible for 90% of the uplift in productivity/token usage from software engineering to non-technical knowledge work. They’ve spent a lot of time & resources on AI enablement from LLM foundations to function-specific trainings and skill building. And yet, the power law of productivity increases hasn’t budged. So now they’re left with a few sobering thoughts and hard questions: 1) 90% of people are overpaid and 10% are underpaid 2) We’d be better off allocating tokens proportionally to the power law, but how do we do that without killing culture? 3) Significant layoffs are likely warranted and wouldn’t impact overall output, but cultural backlash is a big concern? 4) How do we hire more power law people as a non technology company? 5) Is all of our efforts on training and enablement ACTUALLY worth it? 6) How do we not experience a brain drain where the top 10% all leave because they want to be surrounded by other AI-native 10x’ers?

I'm really bullish on @dsllwn, and first congrats to him for raising so much money! But also, I have a strong feeling that he will make the best grok bot alternative in a way (it's also open source) He's hiring a product engineer, and if you know me and I like your work. DM me, I'll intro you 🫡 Also, he uses Email SDK in prod and loves it so much that he sponsored Email SDK! Big shoutout to him, and mark my words. 1-2 months and it'll be a way better grok bot alternative
