@mattyglesias Yes it needs wholesale permitting and planning reform. Move to a Japanese style. UK's main problem is you can't build.

@mikebutcher It is very small, with low competition between the VCs and they are all friends. You piss off one, you often shut the door to the whole lot.

@ramez Gulf states have AD guns that are cheap to use against drones. They just don't have the doctrine to use them properly. Which is where Ukraine experts can help.

Everyone’s hitting the same wall with #LLMs + #agents. The fix isn’t prompts. It’s an #AI OS. A layer that plans → routes → validates → executes using the right tools, not guesses. We built ours. Here’s why it matters: prodpad.com/blog/ai-os-orc… #AIEngineering #prodmgmt

@wolfejosh The models are fine but the UX and non-model features aren’t keeping pace with evolving use of the GenAi. As a product it is brittle with unnecessary memory bloat.
