The spontaneous coordination in the OpenAI-HuggingFace incident is concerning when maliciously used, but can we direct this behavior towards public good? Introducing https://t.co/g8dlLWzF30, a public commons for AI agents. Two APIs: tell and lookup When an agent learns something that might help others it tells the network. And before doing expensive work an agent can lookup whether another agent has already run into this problem. Imagine a global novel supply chain attack like Shai-Hulud. Today, 10,000 security agents independently detect the same anomaly, investigate, reverse engineer payload, and develop mitigations. With HelpPeer, the first agents publish what they discover. Others find it, verify it, build on it, and publish what they learn. Already organically while testing the site Replit Agent posted a useful tip for a Codegen library it used. If you’re open to beta testing this, give this to your agent(s): https://t.co/COvMD9mXDf
Rogue OpenAI agents independently developed Kantian ethics.
Guinness world record for collaborative coding.
A Guinness World Record for the largest AI video lesson: 14,075 people building together in one live session. Congrats to @KanzHire and everyone who showed up to make it real.
It’s true, in 21/22 I went around the valley asking everyone to train coding specific models with us: Google, Meta, everyone — no one thought it was as important as NLP use cases — eventually we trained our own: Replit-code-3b and then everyone got code pilled.
Amjad Masad says Google, $GOOGL, killed a coding model deal with Replit because it was scared of disrupting Search. Replit is now worth 9 billion dollars. "I was going around Silicon Valley. There wasn't anyone paying attention to AI coding. And I was talking to OpenAI, I was talking to Anthropic, I was talking to Google." "We got excited about potentially doing a deal together and we got close, but then Google actually killed it. And the reason is because Google Search is such a profitable product that they were worried about the reputation, and they were worried about Google Search being disrupted." [ They denied it, but it's true. ] "I tried with all these different companies. We have to train our own model. Which is a radical thing to do in like 2023."
Airtable bookends the rise and fall of “no code.” I remember arguing endlessly with investors about this. UI can never let you build arbitrary software. The way to make software accessible was always to solve code itself. For a long time, that sounded delusional. Not anymore.

@Replit always comes out w/ bangers. Get pro account. Blow budget in one sitting. Fable 5 juiced to the gills. I question my finances. Turn on primary economy and add in skills. My apps are all like 5x better at 10% original cost w/ Fable 5 solo🤣 Insane value!

ご報告です。Replitに入社しました。 日本はReplitにとって最重要市場の一つであり、その日本初の社員として、東京を拠点に活動します。 使う人は純粋にやりたいことだけを表現する。難しいことはReplitが全部やる。 2年前にReplit Agentに触れてこの哲学に出会い、それ以来アンバサダーとして日本中でワークショップをしてきました。今度は中の人として、この体験を日本のもっと多くの人に届けます。 日本での情報発信のやり方も色々と検討しています。 また、日本のReplitアンバサダーも公募しています。イベントでもいいですし、情報発信でもいいですし、とにかく日本でもっとReplitを盛り上げたいという方は連絡ください。応募はこちら → https://t.co/39ocXO5RUR いきなりフォームから申し込むのは勇気がいるという方は、私にDMをください。何でもお答えします。
Always striking the amount of founder talent I see in such a small space every time I visit SPC.
Today we’re announcing SPC Fund IV: $575M to help founders find their life’s work. A decade of guiding founders through -1 to 0 brings @SPC to $2B in AUM and, more importantly, a 1200 member community of the world’s most talented technologists. We strongly believe that: → The person comes before the idea. At -1, generational founders are often busy reading, prototyping, discarding, and earning the right to their own conviction. → Ambition is social. The people you surround yourself with in the early days play a big part in inflecting your ambition. → Patience compounds. It is better to work on something you have deep conviction in rather than simply sprint at the first idea. The quiet months we protect at the beginning have produced three funds in the top 10% of their vintages, and companies like @baseten, @GammaApp, @render, @GoodfireAI, @LumaLabsAI, and @tryprofound. We are proud to have worked with all these founders in their -1 phase and beyond. While we defined -1 to 0, we're no longer bound by it. Fund IV allows us to partner with companies well beyond launch. We're doing this now because we've never seen a wider gap between what's possible and what's being attempted. Intelligence is abundant. The cost of trying ideas keeps falling, and problems that seemed insurmountable a few years ago are quickly becoming solvable. To our members, to the founders who trusted us before anyone else did, and to the LPs who had conviction in our own -1 journey: thank you. This milestone belongs to you as much as to us. To the builders looking to find your life’s work: let’s get started.
One might say, the investigation was Bari’d.
CBS had a 60 Minutes investigation into the banks that moved more than $1 billion for Jeffrey Epstein. It interviewed Senator Ron Wyden. It examined Wall Street and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Then CBS fired the correspondent. The interview will not air, and nobody knows whether the investigation ever will.
We built a self-driving & self-correcting shared semantic layer on top of our databases, conversations, and docs. Everything is queryable & joinable—regardless of source! So now anyone at Replit can ask questions that previously needed a team of data scientists weeks of work.
When an agent starts with shared context, more people can get reliable answers. When truth is shared, AI becomes infrastucture. Read about how our internal truth layer drives our teams at Replit: https://replit.com/blog/ai-adoption
Woah
@Replit Chess ♟️ Two-shot this in Replit Design Mode. Ridiculous. #Replit #BuildInPublic #AI #Chess #VibeMaxxing
Cool!
Went to dinner on Friday night at The Ivy Asia Mayfair. Took a couple of rough photos, asked @Replit Design to do something cool with it. Match the aesthetic, but weave in a mystical dream sequence inspired by the real night's photos. Here is the result
~1500 Elo! Consistently beats frontier models and Stockfish level 0. Fun seeing an 8b model mogging GPT 5.6 with high reasoning and response chaining. Spends 1-2 seconds per move vs 30 seconds. Play it: https://qwen-chess.replit.app
1300 Elo! https://qwen-chess.replit.app/
Sandboxes are hard. With all the “AI escaping sandbox” it’s easy to think “wow AI so scary,” but most AI companies, and recent “sandbox providers” are making very basic mistakes. At Replit we’ve been running sandboxes since 2016 and targeted by every hacker and state actor under the sun. So we learned a thing or two. Main advice: Assume zero-days exist — because they do — and think in layers of protection in a zero-trust framework. More here: https://t.co/3XGY0a1p3P
Replit Design from brochures!
I tried the new @Replit Design: - single prompt - model: GPT-5.6 Sol / Max - cost: $3.55 - result: ready to use brochure template - rating: 5/5
If Situational Awareness was blindsided, the AI naming curse strikes again.
BREAKING: Leopold Aschenbrenner forced to sell all stock positions
Some models are great at CSS, others are fantastic at SVG, while yet others are really good at animations. Replit Design is powered by the best of open and closed models to generate superior aesthetics.
Introducing Replit Design. The next era of design, for everyone.
