"ChatGPT Work — it's kind of buried in the UI, but it's really really good. It's one of the best products they've released. It runs in the cloud, it does a good job of caching browser credentials, and the remote feature has the full deep duplex voice mode. So you can actually just call it — it can see all your threads and you can just talk to it and say, 'Hey, what's happening across all my coding agents?' So the voice plus the model of it being able to see all threads is really well done."

"Grok Bot totally nailed it. And also the model underneath it is awesome — they came out right out of left field. The three big products that I love here: Grok Bot totally nailed it, ChatGPT Work is kind of buried in the UI but it's really really good — it's one of the best products they've released. And then there's a startup called Instinct which has made some more aggressive and interesting trade-offs."

"In the last few weeks, I've been obsessed with Qwen 3 8B. It's very good at long horizon tasks, and it's actually really creative. It's a great storyteller. So, I've been using it to create these impossible documentaries, mostly of planets in the Star Wars universe. I did Tatooine, which turned out great. I did Bespin last night. And it can just work for 4 or 5 hours."

"GrokBots is an awesome product. The defining characteristic of GrokBots is resourcefulness. I went to bed a few nights ago and said, 'Hey, buy me a pair of jeans inspired by these.' I took a photo of my current jeans, said don't spend more than $500 and get it done. I woke up in the morning and it had researched, found a pair, same fit, different wash, used my credit card, purchased them and they're on the way."

"When I was playing around with Codex, I had it build a slide deck for Mother's Day for my wife that pulled from my text messages. It looked at my photo gallery, set some music to it, created like a 20-slide deck of our relationship and pulled some cool old texts from when I first asked her out. It was a really nice Mother's Day."

"Town is just such a magical experience. The number one piece of advice I give to everybody — friends, family, folks in the industry — is please just use the products. And Town is really extraordinary. You see how the compounding improvement of the product through memory advantages it over time. The first day you use it, it doesn't know you well. By day 30, it's able to make excellent assumptions on your behalf because it has soaked in 30 days of context, memory, and skills."
