Find your next rabbit hole.

From unwanted utility bots to social AI: how Chai lets users shape the experience, evaluates models in hours, and spends inference compute on selecting better replies.

How community comparisons became a model benchmark—and what style, voter expertise, private testing and inference cost mean for its scores.

Shared tools, persistent files and inspectable outputs extend Codex beyond software development. Making that useful requires helping people discover tasks, preserve context and distinguish activity from progress.

A launch-day discussion moves from video editing and plugin distribution to personal assistants, context limits and the permissions models need to act.

AI can organize research without knowing what matters. Part 1 follows Doug O’Laughlin’s path into semiconductors, then explores coding agents for financial analysis, evaluation rubrics, context management and shared research infrastructure.

How planning, visible execution, direct model access, and persistent task state shape an open-source coding agent.

CloudChef combines cooking-state perception, reusable robot skills and structured recipes to automate commercial kitchen work. Its single-demonstration promise depends on skills the robot already has.

Part 2 of 3 follows practitioners discovering useful capabilities, testing the limits of an isolated workspace, and explaining why code that runs and revises itself changes what they choose to build.

Part 3 of 3 examines missing charts in shared sessions, requests for local code execution, and a central tension in business analysis: how do you choose an upload before you know what data you need?

Part 1 follows the early beta from uploaded databases and iterative debugging to sandbox limits, interactive exports, and the distinction between files a program can execute and information a model has read.

How GPU efficiency, completion design and workload-specific evaluation turn model capability into everyday utility.

Long-running coding agents depend on familiar tool interfaces, context management, and working habits developers can inspect and evaluate.
