Are folks using any AI tools for writing these days? I'd love a cursor-like text editor that makes in-line edits, can help look for link references, save/manage files, and potentially refer to instructions / tone of voice examples / reference docs. #buildinpublic

Got an article to #1 on Hacker News! 💃 First time but hopefully not the last :D #buildinpublic

docs.agentstation.aiMaking Beautiful API Keys | Let's Build TogetherWe created uuidkey to encode UUIDv7s with Crockford Base32 into human-readable keys that are sortable, indexable, and actually pleasant to look at.

Introducing our #opensource uuidkey project - It creates beautiful API keys by encoding and formatting UUIDs. Plus, if you're using UUIDv7 or any other timestamped format, you can still store them decoded in your database for faster indexing + sorting! docs.agentstation.ai/blog/beautif...

We may have been inspired by old school product CD keys... we just like the way they look!

Been working on more product teaser demos for our AI agent workstations! In this demo, we launch a fully-equipped virtual workstation in under 0.3ms (server-side) from our dashboard. #buildinpublic youtu.be/4X3UiXjbtlo

Think we nailed our API key flow for AgentStation ✨ Would love your thoughts on it! Built with DaisyUI, Tailwind, HTMX and Go. #buildinpublic

19 Dec 2024

New users get a prompt to generate a key right from their first dashboard login. While API keys aren't the sexiest feature, every single user will needs one to unlock our product's full potential. It's a critical touchpoint we want to get right.

Reminds me that the mundane parts of your product deserve just as much UX love as the flashy ones. Excellence is in the details.

reddit.comI built a platform that lets AI agents use computers like humans - they can browse websites, join Zoom meetings, and even give live product demos!

Warp terminal's AI commands are pretty cool. Been using it to write FFmpeg commands for video conversion / trimming / compression. Guess what all those online converter tools are using under the hood.... 🤫 #buildinpublic

[1/5] We've added natural animations for the virtual mouse (move, hover, click) & keyboard as part of our AI agent workstations: - Curved pathing & target overshooting for mouse movements - Click "target" visualization - Variable keyboard press timing Some details why & how we did this... 🧵

[2/5] Most agent and web automation tools operate headlessly, with no visualization of OS or browser interactions. This makes it challenging to debug, demonstrate, or monitor agent behavior during execution.

[3/5] To improve the user experience, we decided to render each mouse movement, click, keyboard input visually, so the developer or their end-users users can follow along in live streams or recordings.

techcrunch.comGoogle unveils Project Mariner: AI agents to use the web for you | TechCrunchGoogle unveiled its first-ever AI agent that can take actions on the web on Wednesday, a research prototype from the company's DeepMind division called

1/7 - Project Mariner, Google's GUI agent response to Claude Computer Use just got announced. Some thoughts... 🧵 techcrunch.com/2024/12/11/g...

6/7 - #2 - I imagine apps using web agents will eventually abstract away the "browsing live view" entirely. Agents can run tasks asynchronously, and report back on progress or issues. This is a much more user friendly future where the focus is back on the job-to-be-done, less the agent itself!

7/7 - Shameless plug: I am building an API for virtual desktops for AI agents that's currently in early access. If you're interested in building AI agents that can take useful action autonomously (not just on the local device), sign up! www.agentstation.ai

1/7 - Project Mariner, Google's GUI agent response to Claude Computer Use just got announced. Some thoughts... 🧵 techcrunch.com/2024/12/11/g...

4/7 - Take #2 - while its still very novel to watch an agent do tasks on your behalf live, I imagine the shine will eventually wear off, and users will just want the agent to do the work and report back when its completed, or if there are issues.

5/7 - What I think this means for the future of web and GUI agents: #1 - GUI agents need to run in the cloud on virtual devices, not the user's device! There are infrastructure+cost challenges to this but its not near-term sci fi - its just nuts and bolts engineering work.

1/7 - Project Mariner, Google's GUI agent response to Claude Computer Use just got announced. Some thoughts... 🧵 techcrunch.com/2024/12/11/g...

2/7 - From the TechCrunch article: "One major caveat is that Project Mariner only works on a Chrome browser's foremost active tab, which means you can't use your computer for other things while the agent works in the background – you need to watch Gemini slowly click around."

3/7 - Take #1 - Web / GUI agent implementations will have to be moved off the local device to ever be truly useful, otherwise they either block the user's machine or require a local containerized environment/VM which can be resource intensive.

Excited to see GUI agents gaining traction. Its easier to train AI to use GUIs than APIs - there's a wealth of training data already, and more that can be generated. Not to mention, there are many actions that cannot be done via public APs. Working on building this future now!

Michael Kevin Spencer@aisupremacy.bsky.social

Get ready for the GUI agents of 2025. The technology gives AI systems the ability to see and manipulate computer interfaces just like humans do — clicking buttons, filling out forms, and navigating between applications. Browser based agentic AI. $68.9 billion market opportunity by 2028.

5/6 - For background music I typically look for "Creative Commons" licensed music on Soundcloud. Make sure to check the specific license type. Most require attribution or a link-back of some sort, but "NC" prohibits you from using the music for commercial projects.
