I haven't tweeted much about it, but I am running a part-time, 6 week program this summer at Fractal to help professionals master AI agents.
It's based on everything I learned from training ~100 engineers over the last 2 years. Check to see if your employer will pay for it :)

I'm really enjoying Cuties (the new social media app created by @christineist).
The only problem is that all my followers from Twitter aren't there. Please join me on cuties and comment on all my posts so we can become friends!
This is very good work, and one interesting thing is that I think basically anyone could have done it.
If you think "there is nothing I can contribute to AI research", think again! This is a new field.
The internet is a real place, and it costs you nothing to encourage someone, but it costs you enormously to be mean.
At the end of it all, at the end of our lives, I really believe we will be judged for every time we were mean or discouraging in an internet comment.

Jev can generate game levels in real time.
Faster and cheaper structured output could be a big deal for game dev!
It's strange to me to use numbers (the concepts we invented to communicate quantitative precision) when giving intuitive judgments.
You can't supply the kind of precision that numbers are meant for, so you're using the numbers in p(doom) as something other than quantity. What?
One thing I teach my students about is Specificity in prompting Agents. Compare these 4 prompts:
1. Make me a good website
2. Make me a flappy bird clone
3. Make me a perfect clone of Flappy Bird
4. Make me a perfect clone of Flappy Bird, using Expo and the Expo simulator
One way to create Specificity in a design is to create a document called a Specification, but this is a rather circular definition.
There is nothing special about a file called SPEC.md. The special property is in the way our words constrain possible interpretations!
anyone have strong opinions about the best possible "default" boilerplate for an Astra agent?
Django? Elixir? NextJS? Just ask Astra to ship it, and don't worry about it? Do you clone some specific project and then strip it out? Do you specify database?

Introducing the US Gov Graph - a complete map of the people and positions of power in the federal government.
To fix our institutions we must understand how they work, so we are using AI to model and monitor every government in America. This is Palantir for The People.
Check it out here: graph.civlab.org/us
We exist to set the conditions for an era of civic excellence unmatched since the Founding. We will need nothing less to navigate the age of AI.
I'm looking for exceptional engineers and designers to work with me in San Francisco. If that's you, inquire here: tally.so/r/KY97RK. Self-governing civilization is counting on you.
