— swyx (@swyx) 3 avril 2026omg a hit tweet – stream @latentspacepod for the inspiration for this!! nitter.net/latentspacepod/status/… Latent.Space (@latentspacepod) 🆕 Marc Andreessen’s 2026 AI Thesis: Agents, Open Source, and Why This Time Is Different latent.space/p/pmarca @pmarca of @a16z says AI people keep swinging between utopian and apocalyptic for one simple reason: this field has been “almost here” for 80 years. But now, the breakthroughs are no longer theoretical. Reasoning, coding, agents, and self-improvement are all starting to work at once. This episode goes deep on AI winters, OpenAI + OpenClaw, infrastructure overbuild risk, proof-of-human, why software may soon be written mostly for bots, and why the real bottleneck may be society adopting AI rather than the models improving. — https://nitter.net/latentspacepod/status/2040113281365581901#m

Sara Hooker Joins AI Engineer Singapore Conference as Speaker
By
–
excited that @sarahookr (ceo of @adaption_ai) is joining us at @aiDotEngineer singapore! sara's done amazing work for the ai community, from her roles as vp of research at @cohere and research work at google brain. this one is personal, as i've known sara for over a decade. back when i was still in the bay area, i was volunteering as a pro bono data analyst for a nonprofit she started – to help under-resourced organizations use data for good. i worked directly on a few projects with her team, and what struck me even then was how incredibly sharp sara was, but also how at the heart of everything she does is real impact for the world. since then, sara's done amazing work: – from leading cohere's research lab and shipping multilingual models to 55+ languages – to authoring "the hardware lottery" (one of the most cited papers on why ideas in ai win or lose based on hardware, not merit) – to now building adaption labs around a thesis the industry desperately needs to hear – the future of ai isn't about building bigger models, but about building systems that can learn and adapt continuously so excited to have sara there for ai.engineer/singapore from may 15-17! @swyx @agrimsingh @aimuggle @unprofeshme @ivanleomk
