Harrison Chase is excited that LLMs are becoming capable enough to power autonomous web-browsing agents, showcased by the deepagents + @browserbase LangChain integration example on GitHub.
#10 𝕏
Teresa Torres Santi Marchiori’s AITropos built an AI-testing pipeline where one agent plays customer in thousands of nightly chats, a second verifies orders, and a third analyzes errors. This AI-driven approach cut a huge initial error rate to production-ready quality.
#11 𝕏
clem 🤗 built an office receptionist robotics app for Reachy Mini in under 2 hours using ML Intern and OpenAI GPT-5.5, and even shared live session traces on HuggingFace.
#12 𝕏
Garry Tan imported 17 years of Foursquare check-in data (5,000+ entries) into his OpenClaw/Hermes platform to auto-generate personalized travel guides, starting with his top spots in San Francisco.
#13 𝕏
Garry Tan released GBrain v0.25 to let contributors benchmark AI evaluations against their own real-world brain queries. He stresses that running proper evals on personal AI workloads is crucial for driving performance improvements and feature development.
#14 𝕏
Julien Chaumond unveiled YC Bench by CollinearAI—a CLI-driven benchmark where agents play CEO of an AI startup for one simulated year and are scored on their final cash holdings. He also showcased the new `hf` command to run these simulations.

#16 𝕏
Demis Hassabis recapped DeepMind’s AGI milestones — from AlphaGo’s Go victories and AlphaFold’s protein-folding breakthroughs to the new Gemini multimodal models — and emphasized agents with memory and continual learning as the next frontier.
#17 𝕏
Tal Raviv breaks down “building an agent” into four LLM primitives—simple chat threads, chat + tools, chat + tools + skills, and finally adding a file system (Memento) for persistent memory across sessions.
#18 𝕏
Shreyas Doshi argues that product leaders with deep consumer-product experience and a strong user-empathy instinct find B2B “easy mode” and often excel—provided they dedicate themselves to acquiring the deep domain expertise many overlook.
#19 𝕏
Claude brings back Code with Claude next week—a livestreamed developer conference featuring beginner to advanced sessions on Claude Code. Register at https://claude.com/code-with-claude.
#20 𝕏
LlamaIndex 🦙 says that with LLM frameworks like OpenAI Codex or Claude Code now interchangeable, the real differentiator is unlocking context trapped in enterprise files (PDFs, contracts, filings).
#21 𝕏
Sam Altman announced that OpenClaw now lets you sign in with your ChatGPT account and use your existing subscription there. Happy lobstering.
#22 𝕏
Peter Yang blasts YouTube’s new Inspiration feature as ineffective AI-generated slop, arguing its titles and thumbnails won’t work and that actual creators should be put in charge.
#23 𝕏
clem 🤗 is building an office receptionist app for the Reachy Mini today using ml intern and OpenAI GPT-5.5, with live session agent traces available on Hugging Face.
#24 𝕏
Shreyas Doshi says AI now simplifies acquiring and leveraging domain expertise across your team, but warns that product leaders must still deeply value domain knowledge—beyond just user empathy and creativity.
