Increasingly clear that OAI is going all in on computer use
It’s the universal capability that unlocks SO much GDP
Reminds me of great line from @pk_iv - “the DMV is not building an MCP server anytime soon”
I love the phrase "teaching sand to think"
Yes, it's a bit reductive. But it captures the magnificence of what we've done as a species
increasingly confident in Codex's "everything app" positioning, and that Anthropic will soon follow suit
too difficult to decide when to use Claude Chat / Cowork / Code
Apartment hunting sucks
Started using agents to do the heavy lifting:
- Auto-fetch listings and sync to @NotionHQ via Notion workers
- Custom enrichment, e.g. your commute time
- Filters not on Zillow/Craigslist, e.g. year built
- Text you when 🔥 listing appears via @sendbluehq
big oppty now to build headless versions of products that are super customizable
AI has gotten *so good* at building UIs, esp with well-defined APIs
so the “product” just needs to do the back-end heavy lifting (e.g. strong primitives, scaling, integrations)
would work best in categories with high need for customization:
- support / helpdesk
- data labeling / evals
- internal tools broadly

Brex is the only company proud of how many people leave.
Over 100 alumni became founders (4x the industry average), raising more than $800M along the way, with $1B+ in exits, and even 1 IPO.
@brexHQ is the best founder school on the planet. Quitters Welcome.

Six months in, one of our first users told me that our software had changed their life. I never encountered a reaction like that to anything I’d built. I was hooked.
So proud of our team who, through their grit, talent, and creativity, have propelled Comulate to record-setting growth in less than three years. Read more here: comulate.com/post/comulate-s…
