Gutted by news that Gary Indiana has died. I remember him reading to me from Netochka Nezvanova in Cafe Lucian over drinks. We had quite a few cocktails, & he accidently smashed one. An uppity woman darted at us with disgust. He looked her straight in her face & quipped, 'Opa!'. https://t.co/DfUkBacUYX
PBS asks Arab Barghouti, son of imprisoned Palestinian leader Marwan Barghouti, why his father is referred to as the Palestinian Nelson Mandela. “I think this is very interesting because Nelson Mandela was called a terrorist, and my father as well. And if you go back to any struggle — in Algeria, in Ireland, in South Africa, in all the countries that were colonized and occupied you will find that their resistance, and their defending themselves against the occupier, is always called terrorism.”
The Elders, a group of former global leaders founded by Nelson Mandela, released a statement advocating for the immediate release of politcal prisoner Marwan Barghouti from Israeli prison to aid the implementation of two-state solution. @TheElders #GazaCeasefire #Palestine https://t.co/1F39TrBj7g

I have used different vibecoding apps but none of them works anything like @anything (see what I did there). It’s super responsive on mobile. Easy to publish immediately. I oneshotted this app in 20 mins. Wow 🤩 @zobeir https://t.co/TSSyhqbLyn
@zobeir kela@ivytechlabs.com already started building. Please sir may I have some https://t.co/3tBiHtTgVh
Today we introduced Gemini Enterprise, built with our most advanced Gemini models. It allows you to chat with your company’s documents, data and apps as well as build and deploy AI agents, all grounded in your information and context. Have a look at how it helps you build an agent for almost anything:
After years of following @lennysan's wonderful takes on product, I finally had the opportunity to chat with him about AI products! https://t.co/buFxQkTqyH 1. Many AI product problems aren’t because of AI. It’s usually because of user experience, data quality, or organizational structure. A chatbot failed to get traction because their targeted users simply couldn’t type (because their hands were usually busy -- taking care of kids or driving), so showing pre-populated questions and adding a voice option significantly improved traction. Another team told me their lead scoring model was broken. It turns out that it’s because the marketing team wasn’t asking the right questions to get data. The biggest product improvements still come from understanding your users, preparing your data, and investing in your team! 2. Senior engineers see the most productivity improvement with AI coding because they have more experience with writing design docs and API specs, which help them write better instructions. However, they’re also more resistant to using AI for coding. Senior folks are often more opinionated and get frustrated easily when AI doesn’t do what they want. 3. Many teams spend a lot of time debating which tool to use, which can be counter-productive. When teams ask me which of the 2 tools to use, I usually ask 2 questions: “How much performance improvement will the optional tool give over the less optimal one?” --> If the improvement is small, then spend less time debating. “How hard is it to change from one tool to another once you’ve adopted it?” --> If the tool is new and not yet battle tested, I’d think twice about adopting something that I can’t get out later. 4. Many people know that the most effective way to learn AI is to build with AI. Yet, people keep asking me: “But what should I build?” We seem to be having an “idea crisis”. We have all these wonderful tools to help us build things, and no idea what to build. An exercise I often recommend is to spend a week noticing what frustrates you in your daily work, then build small tools to solve those specific pain points.

Small-but-happy win: If you tell ChatGPT not to use em-dashes in your custom instructions, it finally does what it's supposed to do!
"In the future, you won't need any software at all. The neural network will completely replace it." - @stephenbalaban, co-founder of @LambdaAPI "Here's the idea: instead of generating a program, just go to ChatGPT and say, 'Hi, please behave like a calculator or a spreadsheet.'" "'Generate an ASCII user interface for me. And I want you to essentially just respond, implement the logic of that program in your mind.'" "This is what I call neural software. Normal software is really brittle. 'Neural software' can't have bugs, only misunderstandings." "Large language models will be the software you interact with." From Stephen's appearance on the show in May.
We’re excited to sponsor @anyscalecompute's #RaySummit ⭐ Today, Dr. Jim Fan took part in the keynote speech, and we connected with so many talented AI/ML builders to share hands-on insights.

today Meta introduced Segment Anything 3, and we're partnering with the @AIatMeta team to make Roboflow the best place to build with it SAM 3 is a breakthrough for visual AI. Say what you want to see in an image/video ("green umbrella," "check engine light," "circuit breaker"), and get a pixel-perfect mask of that thing with tracking SAM 3 is a stepwise change to: - Automate away labeling - Provide a zero shot, infinitely scalable model endpoint - Build a custom model for any object in <5min - Detect, count, and track anything in a video
this could be the chatgpt moment for computer vision strong segmentation means you can literally 1click train a computer vision model now this model is actually crazy https://t.co/KJKc59Cxqy

Working from @sfcompute today in Levi's Plaza Same location where @alecqfong and I first set up our office 6 years ago!!! Since then went thru YC, startup acquired by NVIDIA, got married, grew a mustache... and Alec's patagonia is still trucking along 😂🤙 https://t.co/HX6QWdugDp
We’re launching our Stability AI Image Services on @Amazon Bedrock, bringing professional-grade image editing capabilities to @awscloud infrastructure. Image Services are image editing tools packaged as API services. The tools available on Bedrock support two general types of image editing workflow: 1️⃣ Edit: Make precise, targeted modifications to existing images without altering the overall composition, such as inpainting or recoloring a specific object. 2️⃣ Control: Generate variations of images, such as turning a sketch into a photorealistic product shot, or applying a new style to an image while preserving the structure of the subject.

🎵 Using musical vocabulary The below three building blocks are the simplest – but most important – context to give the model: 1️⃣ Genre: Define the category for your track. 2️⃣ Tempo: Define the speed to match your intended use case and energy level. 3️⃣ Overall mood: Establish the emotional foundation of your track. Example prompt: "A relaxing Bossa Nova instrumental, perfect for an elevator. The mood is smooth, patient, and relaxing, 115 BPM."
🎵 Add musical elements to build depth Specify the important sound sources in your track, then go beyond that with more detail on texture and production characteristics: 1️⃣ Primary instruments: These instruments carry the melody or main musical theme. They’re the focal point that listeners typically follow, and often play the hook or most memorable parts. 2️⃣ Supporting instruments: Add supporting instruments to complement the main melody. They’re usually mixed in the background or at moderate levels. 3️⃣ Rhythm components: Define the percussive elements that drive your track. 4️⃣ Texture elements: Add in layers that create sonic depth and atmosphere. 5️⃣ Production characteristics: These elements describe how the track is recorded, mixed, and produced. Example prompt: “An exciting breakbeat instrumental perfect for fast-paced video games, featuring funky electric guitar chords, steady break drums, smooth electric piano, and supporting bass. The mood is fresh, modern, and adventurous, 105 BPM.”
