It’s wild to me how much everyone is sleeping on @figma Make in my TL. I dropped v0 24 hours after trying it. The ability to focus on elements and connect the dots to specific design assets is just too good.
This is controversial. Why do we consider human friendships authentic but AI friendships artificial? If an AI can “perform” intelligence, humor, and empathy, does it matter that it isn’t real? Obviously my instinct is that it DOES matter, but to play devil’s advocate: How…
3 sigmas have already committed
You: someone who builds AI workflows (in n8n, Zapier, or Make) AND you have more than 2,000 followers. Me: about to roll out subscription and monetization on @useplumb and I need a few people to kick the tires. DM me if you're interested. If selected, I will pay you $1,000…
I grew up at a time (and in an industry) where you curated your professional identity. So, for most of my career I sweated what I put in public. How I dressed. Grammar. Spelling. Respectful communication. The details matter, right? Right?! Wrong. The cost of that curation was a…

I think within the next 24 months, we’re going to witness an AI company that was one of the fastest growing companies of all time and realize that revenue was fake (not predicting who that is just think it’s an inevitable) We will have an Elizabeth Holmes of AI ARR

Copying and pasting AI workflows is mid. We just shipped subscriber email notifications in @useplumb so this means when a creator updates one of their AI workflows, every person who is subscribed to that flow will receive an email with release notes and a one click option to…
To take this to the next level, let everyone in the audience subscribe to the workflows if they seem applicable/useful.
One practice we’ve implemented in going AI-first at Box is every week someone demos their AI workflow to the whole company. Usually it’s something we never would’ve predicted. Good to balance central planning for tech and decentralization for use case adoption.
So much this.
Waymo spent 15 years getting from 90% to mostly autonomous. Companies are about to learn the same lesson..
If you're working on a podcast, the best barometer for whether it's going to work is how excited you are to show up. If you don't want to be there, why would the audience?
The level of conviction on ASI as a near term outcome among Mag 7 CEOs is wild to me. Like, I understand that's the game on the field, but it still feels like a coin toss to me?
