We just killed Notion, and open-sourced it. Introducing Terminus Notes: everything you like in Notion, removed the stupid AI credits and confusing sidebars. 100% Free, 100% Open source, 100% Customizable. You can export your data or point it to your Claude at any time.

Hey folks, for those who are curious why we call it "open-source": we indeed open-sourced every lines of code at terminus.build/apps/terminus…, you can see click the link on the profile page of the app and see the button to check the code. We should make it more explicit, my bad.

I just built a *functioning* React app by describing what I wanted to GPT-3. I'm still in awe.

The worst feature naming I have ever seen on a product that is used by billions.

To Prospective Investors: We do not do decks anymore since they can now be easily generated and read by Claude. Please use our product first and provide some feedback, make sure you do this yourself.

Companies before AI: Apple: Think Different. Nike: Just Do It. Google: Don't be Evil. AI Companies: Anthropic: Just be Evil. OpenAI: Selected model is at capacity. Please try a different model.

“Those who promise you Safety but take away your essential Liberty, will give you neither Liberty nor Safety.”
Attackers have frontier AI. Defenders need a frontier AI ecosystem—the best open and closed models, force-multiplied by a global community. During the Hugging Face incident, closed AI blocked essential forensics. An open-weight frontier model helped contain the intrusion. That’s why we created the Open Secure AI Alliance.

Excited that OAT (ordered-action-tokenization.…) was selected as one of the featured research projects at the YCML Research Symposium hosted by @ycombinator! Unfortunately, I won’t be able to attend due to an unexpected U.S. re-entry issue. My co-author Jiawei (@WinstonGu_) will be presenting our work on our behalf. If you’re attending #yc AI Startup School, stop by our poster this Sunday, 2–3 PM PT and chat with Jiawei about action tokenization for robot learning!

Used to love @NotionHQ because of its simplicity: The pages were elegant, and taking notes felt intuitive. This is just how people's mind works. Now: why am I paying $12/seat/month for AI agents in my notes?
