RT Alex Volkov Also a separate shoutout to @cognition (@mattbergland) for the amazing Token Billionaire lounge! They got haircuts, massages, and a friggin personal tailor in there?! I personally loved the smash station and the "books by @DevinAI" It pays off to be an AIE Token Billionaire!
I tell all my friends, apply to speak at @aiDotEngineer ! The speakers dinner and the speakers lounge are the highest density of AI talent and AI conversation anywhere in the world! Amazing first day in NY today! Excited to see the keynote tomorrow!

RT Era Qian 👩🚀🔎 The new billionaires aren’t measured in dollars, but tokens. NYC tech events are going all out 💅 Day 1 of @aiDotEngineer: Welcome to @Devin’s Token Billionaire Lounge, AI’s new luxury class. Burn billions of tokens, get haircuts, facials, massages, bespoke tailoring & vinyl sessions. H/T to @mattbergland @swyx & zac!
RT Nehal One hell of a day at AIE Workshops. From claude-managed agents and wealth-managing agents to memory-aware agents We had it all. Can’t wait for tomorrow!
RT Adi Singh My AI Engineer "The next trillion users need an Identity" talk is now live! A lot of the thoughts behind AgentID were said here - why agents are joining the networks we use, and how identity is accumulated, not issued. A big big thank you to @swyx and the team for having me!!
RT Ali Zaid been experimenting with a thumbnail concept for the new latent space podcast. getting 4 people to work in one thumbnail was surprisingly tricky. happy with how this turned out 👀
this podcast needed a great thumbnail new @latentspacepod episode with @CompleteSkeptic talking about Jev, System One Models, reliable AI, and the end of chat-first AI...
world’s first full length workshop on claude flows @cjav_dev and Harrison Stall are kicking off @aidotengineer bright and early on a monday morning to a PACKED room, standing room only #AIEngineerNY @ricmac is on the case reporting for @latentspacepod and we’ll also publish asap. proud to work with @anthropicai to sponsor AIE NYC for the second year running!
Claude Managed Agents dynamic workflows are now available in public beta. It's a new type of multiagent orchestration, built for your most ambitious workloads. A lead agent writes a plan that runs across many agents in phases, combining the results at the end.

if you didnt immediately think of counterexamples you are not exercising your own free will and independent thought while reading feedslop
Lucky coincidence the labs are only successfully cracking esoteric math problems and not the problems where a solution would give the winner an asymmetric commerical advantage.

RT Jediah Katz hey this is kind of what my talk will be about!
on a related note, there's been some chatter recently about software engineering skills (eg the ruby/rust/elixir drama). i'm a bit torn because while i do feel like they're software engineering principles and patterns are still important, at the same time i wonder if there will

Re recap of last time this discourse happened for those who are insufficiently online https://dx.tips/cant-hire
going rate for this role is between 5-50m comp package btw at the frontier agent labs
literal hardest role to hire for rn and every ai startup wants someone > chronically online (knows trends) > has taste & can create (new media) > understands ai & technical > can execute with quality (operator) such a small niche of folks who can do this

RT Jennifer Zhou Today we are open-sourcing 🥕Karotte, our framework for building RL environments. We've used it for the past year to build MLE RL environments for frontier labs, and it's been hardened through 1M+ evaluation runs and red-teaming.
what is your default/workhorse coding agent today, Oct 2026?
RT Thariq we're increasingly going to be moving towards Claude's "brains" in the cloud and giving Claude "local hands" to operate on your computer I talked about this a bit on latent space

Introducing dots, powered by GPT-6 Astra. Remarkably capable, always-on agents built to handle everything.
View quoted postRT Laude Institute Re @a1zhang sees academia as a place to take big research bets. PhD researchers might not have endless compute, but advantages are there: the freedom to explore ideas outside the mainstream and grapple with different tradeoffs can unleash new paradigms.

It's time to get serious about Security x AI. One of the joys of doing AIE is helping others start their own high quality conferences in their countries and domains. Every single 2025 partner has come back — and the 2nd AI Security Summit is now way more important than before. Proud to be back as a founding partner with @snyksec! Join the event: https://aisecuritysummit.com/ The landscape has completely transformed since we started this a year ago. An exploding number of rogue agents, more breaches, more AI-driven attacks. now more than ever, security must be at the center of the AI conversation. With so much more hacks and vulnerabilities, this stuff is no longer theoretical...
RT Latent.Space Recursive Language Models: Claude Code, Agent Swarms, Big Research Bets, & the $40M AI Problem Solver https://www.latent.space/p/rlm MIT’s @a1zhang explains why Claude Code, Codex, and Pi are basically the same, how RLMs use code, context offloading, and recursive subagents to generalize across tasks, why one expert can sometimes replace a trillion-token brute-force search, what OpenAI’s 10,000-agent, 130B-output-token experiment reveals about the future of language models, and why academia’s biggest advantage is the freedom to take weird, ambitious research bets.

View quoted postRT Pari Singh Flow has raised a $50M Series B at a $750M valuation, co-led by Antonio Gracias (Valor) and Gavin Baker (Atreides) with Sequoia Capital, Roelof Botha (SpaceX, Block), and more. When I became a mechanical engineer, I wanted to invent. In reality, 90% of the day to day execution work (CAD, excel, sim) was digital manual labour. That’s about to flip. The engineer’s role will change more profoundly than at any point since the invention of CAD, with humans focusing on invention, architecture, tradeoffs and judgement calls, and agents taking the grunt work. Anduril, Joby, Stoke Space, Rivian & many more - Flow is now the default platform for requirements and verification for frontier hardware teams. But it’s not just next-gen anymore. Industry giants including General Motors PPU and Volkswagen & Rivian’s joint venture (RV Tech) are reshaping their core development practices with Flow’s AI. The revolution is just starting. Models are getting better quickly at CAD, analysis, simulation, and tool use. In the next year, AI will move from integrating the work to doing the work. One day, this shift won't just enable us to iterate faster, it will enable us to design a class of products that we could not have dreamt of before. We’re hiring.
for friends of @latentspacepod we are gonna be asking all your burning Dots, Sol 6.1, CUA, and Decisions API questions for @AriX and @nikunjhanda 🔜 at the gateway pavilion on a few mins, come by!
