The first step to creating a new kind of computer is reimagining the interface
I don’t think you understand what ChatGPT Voice unlocks
I went on a 4 hour hike yesterday. Through the northern California redwoods.
Got more work done in those 4 hours talking to Voice through my AirPods then I do in 8 hours at my desk
Work can be done ANYWHERE now
45 minute drive back using self driving? Now 45 minutes I can talk to Voice and work on side projects
20 minutes in the cafe? I can sit and talk to Voice and when I get home I have drafts on my computer for my newsletter for the next month
Being able to just use your voice to talk to a super intelligence that controls your computer is unlike anything we’ve ever experienced before
I don’t even care that the voice sounds human like, or you can interrupt it, or any of the wild advancements they made to the tech
It’s the fact that it can control my computer, meaning all I need to get incredible work done is talk through my AirPods anywhere in the world that is the major game changer for me
I don’t think people truly understand the implications of this yet
Why even have a desk or monitor anymore. Work can be done ANYWHERE now
The key is your set up:
1. Choose one device (preferably an always on desktop) as your main “headquarters” device all your work gets done on
2. Get the ChatGPT app on all your other devices (iPhone, iPad, laptops, Mac Minis)
3. Set up ‘connections’ in your settings so that all your ‘node’ devices can control your ‘headquarters’ device
4. Go legit anywhere in the world. Turn on Voice. Ask it to brief you on your projects, give you a recommended next step, then spin up new threads to do work
I really don’t think work looks the same moving forward.

No one knows yet what the next form factor for computing will be, and yet there will be a next form factor, and it will seem obvious in retrospect.

feels like a good time to seriously rethink how operating systems and user interfaces are designed
(also the internet; there should be a protocol that is equally usable by people and agents)

Design is differentiation.
@bnj and the @variantui team are proving that you can train generative models to have taste. And taste still wins.
If you want your generations to feel designed and not…generated
We hid a few invite codes to @variantui in this video
The first 100 get unlimited credits, reply for a hint

Much to study in how Nothing earned the right to exist in their David vs Goliath battle with Apple
Today, @nothing raised $200M Series C at a $1.3B valuation.
This marks the start of our next chapter: From building the only new smartphone company of the last decade, to creating an AI-native platform where hardware & software converge.
Grateful to our community who’ve been with us from day one.

>OpenAI was founded in 2015. The seminal transformers paper “Attention is All You Need” wasn’t published until 2017. You have to be in the water.

Sometimes I get asked career advice …
Patience is undervalued.
Too many distractions promise quick wins, especially when things are hard.
They are enticing — you can justify pursuing them as a way to avoid a “local maximum.”
Later you find out that they are also hard.
If you’re not careful, you can find yourself always searching and jumping from one shiny object to another.
It’s almost always better to just finish the job.
