The real mirage is the utility of median developers

How so? Median is a concrete metric.

ok this is a pretty stupid take from an otherwise smart guy.

tikok/YT shorts/IG reels is many orders of magnitude higher supply of slop than Simon Schuster paperbacks

Meanwhile Harrison Chase is laughing his way to the bank

This is a misread of Benioff's intent behind his comment lol.

Salesforce has a vested interest in maintaing its seat based licenses, so it's not in favor of mass layoffs.

Internally Salesforce is pushing AgentForce full stop

Is there a simple, serverless version of deploying Pipecat stack, without: - me having to self host on my infra

I just want to provide: - business logic - tools - configuration metadata (e.g. which voice to use)

I don't like Vapi due to 1) extensive GUI driven experience, 2) cost

Re:Asterisk AI Voice Agent on Wednesday December 24, 2025 @11:16PM (#46382023)
let me get this straight, you are storing convo threads / context in DOs?

e.g. Deepgram (STT) via websocket -> DO -> LLM API -> TTS?

Re:Asterisk AI Voice Agent on Wednesday December 24, 2025 @10:17PM (#46381770)
This is good stuff.

In your opinion, how close is Pipecat + OSS to replacing proprietary infra from Vapi, Retell, Sierra, etc?

Re:AI Can Write Your Code. It Can't Do Your Job on Tuesday December 23, 2025 @10:46PM (#46372221)
The reason why there are meetings is due to existing org layers.

Thus, the root cause of the meetings' existence is BS mostly. That's why you have BS meetings.

The fastest way to drive AI adoption is thus by thinning out org layers.

It’s breathtaking how fast Anthropic / Claude Code team ships.

They are definitely coding in a LLM maximalist way, in a good way.

Because they are currently trying to raise money at 100bn valuation

Re:Copywriters reveal how AI has decimated their industry on Monday December 15, 2025 @08:45AM (#46274447)
Yeah. Even docs, instead of having an entire team they might just need a few technical writers
Re:Copywriters reveal how AI has decimated their industry on Monday December 15, 2025 @08:44AM (#46274433)
I know a startup that runs a marketplace and they dropped all their copy writing budget (six figures per year) with just a custom GPT
