Take a practical look at multimodal, any-to-any systems for vision-language reasoning, speech interaction, document intelligence, real-time assistants, local deployment.
Unless you’ve been living under an old woodpile in your backyard, you have certainly seen how agentic coding is rocking the software development world. Things are happening fast and furious, and keeping up is practically a full-time job.
The latest area that is catching the attention of developers is how agentic coding is affecting the open source community. The open source movement has been defending the rights of folks to use, change, and contribute to software for many years. And of course, agentic coding is starting to become part of that process.
On the one hand, maintainers of open source projects rightfully are frustrated as they become overwhelmed with pull requests of dubious quality and usefulness being submitted by coding agents. On the other hand, as David Heinemeier Hansson notes, maintainers are starting to get a little snooty about accepting AI-written code, viewing it as somehow not worthy of being included. Some organizations have explicitly banned AI-generated submis

Most people used ChatGPT like a smarter search engine. Ask a question, get an answer, and move on. It works but it leaves a surprising amount of value on the table. Over the past few years, ChatGPT has evolved far beyond a simple chatbot. It can browse the web, analyze files, generate images, maintain memory, […]

Several trends are now converging that threaten to pit tech companies against tech users.
Miniaturization has finally enabled companies to build AI glasses that look and function like normal glasses, but with microphones and cameras. People are increasingly talking to AI, rather than typing. And multimodal input, especially video, is on the rise.
Put all of these trends together and you get a nascent industry pushing toward all-day, everyday AI glasses with cameras — and a worried public already pushing back at the idea.
Let’s look at how we got here.
Meta started it with a surprise hit: its second-generation Ray-Ban Meta glasses, which later gained multimodal AI capability. Its Meta Ray-Ban Display glasses add one in-lens screen — but both versions of the glasses have cameras. (The company is working on a third generation that will probably ship next year.)
