Currently integrating an AI Assistant with read tools (Retrieval-Augmented Generation or RAG as they say). Many policies we are writing are providing context (what are entities and how they relate). Projecting to when we add write tools, context is everything.

The article does provide a hint: "Operate". One needs to get paid for what LLMs cannot do. A good example is Laravel. They built services like Forge, Cloud, Nightwatch around open source.

OpenAI's strategy is to eventually overtake search. I'd be curious for a chart of their progress over time. Without Google trying to distort the picture with Gemini benchmark results and usage stats which are tainted by sheer numbers from traditional search and their apps.

We therefore connected Serif, which automatically writes drafts. You don't need to ask - open Gmail and drafts are there. Serif learned from previous support email threads to draft a proper response. And the tone matches!

I truly wonder why Gmail didn't think of that. Seems pretty obvious to me.

I run a B2B SaaS on Laravel and this was a dream of mine for many years. Laravel + Vuejs is sufficient to cover 99% of features we need to build and scale our business. I want my devs to build features, not infrastructure.

I'm looking forward to playing with Laravel Cloud and do hope we can migrate our production environment to it one day.

Google changed their AI name multiple times. I've built on them before and they end of lifed the product I was using. Zero confidence Gemini will be there tomorrow.

What similar parallel can we think of for AI?

Has it become a verb yet? Waiting to peole to replace "I googled how to..." with "I chatgpted how to...".

I see 2 paths: - Consumers - the Google way: search and advertise to consumers - Businesses - the AWS way: attrack businesses to use your API and lock them in

The first is fickle. Will OpenAI become the door to the Internet? You'll need people to stop using Google Search and rely on ChatGPT for that to happen. Will become a commodity. Short term you can charge a subscription but long term will most likely become a commondity with advertising.

The second is tangible. My company is plugged directly to the OpenAI API. We build on it. Still very early and not so robust. But getting better and cheaper and faster over time. Active development. No reason to switch to something else as long as OpenAI leads the pack.

Have a listen to the podcast Startups for the rest of us. All about bootstrapping. Get inspired and start building.

My reply is Apple supports close to 2 billion devices. They have to work and never crash. They also need to get upgraded for security patches and new features. The fact they find them "boring" is a good thing. Means iPhones have become an intrisic part of their lives.

This article describes one of the many things Apple has to do to make them "boring". Indeed a feat of engineering.

Now, when they replicate that success with Siri, that will be a game changer. Hopefully advances in LLMs will bring that day forward.
