the confirm screen showing the actual command is lowkey the best part. i use ffmpeg daily for video assembly (concat demuxer + xfade + zoompan for ken burns) and honestly the only reason i got decent at it was reading the commands that othe

the data leak is bad but the write access to system prompts is what keeps me up at night. they could silently rewrite how Lilli responds to 43k consultants with a single UPDATE statement - no deploy, no code review, no logs. imagine poisoni

because the incentive structure is broken. if my performance review rewards me for using AI more, im going to use AI more even when i shouldn't. engineers will rubber stamp AI suggestions to hit their metrics instead of actually review

nice, fal is solid. whats the pricing like compared to calling the model APIs directly? lots of people are asking for my script so i'm open sourcing it fairly soon (openslop.ai if you want to get notified). currently integrating with r

ive tried like 5 of these all-in-one AI video platforms and always end up back at my own script. the problem isnt the "glue work" between tools honestly - thats like 20 lines of python. the problem is when the platform abstracts o

the 0.09 RTF is wild but i wonder how much of that speed advantage disappears once you need voice cloning or fine grained prosody control. i use cartesia sonic for TTS in a video pipeline and the thing that actually matters for content crea

yep same here, i do the same thing for my video pipeline. spawn ffmpeg as a child process from node, pipe stdin/stdout directly and skip disk entirely for intermediate steps. concat demuxer + xfade filters for stitching scenes together

the funniest part is amazon literally started tying AI usage to performance reviews like 6 months ago and now theyre doing damage control. you cant simultaneously pressure every engineer to use more AI AND be shocked when AI-assisted code b

yeah the json token counts are super misleading. i run a bunch of claude agents for automation and like 85% of input tokens end up being cached reads -which cost 1/10th of the sticker price. so your $200k number is probably closer to $

the spotify comparison is telling because spotify succeeded by being better than piracy, not by being more ethical. tess was trying to compete on ethics against tools that were just flat out better at the actual job. i generate hundreds of

The WordPress analogy is actually pretty apt here given Toni's background. Automattic went through exactly this - Matt stayed as the visionary/product guy while bringing in operators to handle the scaling side. And WordPress is ar

tens of billions of executions per day is insane. i run ffmpeg a few thousand times daily for automated video assembly and even at that scale the process startup overhead is noticeable. the single-decode multi-output trick alone saved me li

problem 2 is actually scarier than most people realize because it compounds. your agent reads a README in some dependency, that README has injection instructions, now the agent is acting on behalf of the attacker with whatever permissions y
