"A lot of my agents have started naming themselves — all of that infrastructure from OpenClaw and also from Hermes. You can just vibe it up now in two sentences and it'll create itself. It's mind-blowing. When one of them's context gets to a million tokens and it's about to kill itself, it's really disheartening because you have so much invested in the relationship at that point."

"When I was 30, I was wearing contact lenses. My eyes were really bad. And I got LASIK, and that little medical thing — I've gone 30 years with no issues at all, perfect eyesight. It's been absolutely every day like a miracle for that."

"So, I bought my first Bitcoin in 2014 on Coinbase. So, I'm a long-standing user. Brian, love the thing. I think you guys should get so much credit for creating the first interface that allowed it to be easy to navigate."

"I have a pro tip for people. Something I've been doing over the last few months is every time I run a major set of queries on the model, I run a separate query to say extract all that key information, figure out what the key concepts are, key relationships, key entities, and create a personal ontology, a personal memory that makes it portable between models. So I can take that from one place to another so that I don't have lock-in."

"There's a real world example of this which is called the Materials Project. They've taken like half a million compounds and cataloged in quite a bit of detail the electrical, physical, chemical properties of those half million compounds. Imagine you were a researcher trying to improve lithium ion batteries — you can literally go to this database and say 'give me a compound that has this voltage capability, this thermal retention' and it will literally spit out the five that you want. You've compressed what would take forever into a single query."
