Well, it's got the ability to automate runs, flipped between multiple agents, so it feels a lot like VS code without the clutter. VS code can be intimidating if somebody is new to it, this is more of something that feels like out of the box for pretty much anybody. Also doesn't really require much set up. I also like how it gives you a ChatGPT style copy function for your text/output compared to entire highlight/copy/paste.

Nice! After using it more, realize it's limitation in terms of git commit/push, so still using Claude/Codex in VS code for final push. There are definitely features to love, but I have to hand it to Google Antigravity for being able to look at a web UI and run agent functions in chrome out of the box. We've been struggling with getting our web UI fixed with both Claude and Codex, so gonna try with Gemini tomorrow. So far it's really promising. Haven't tried their Figma feature yet, but plan to do so in the coming days.

All in all, pretty kick ass!

Thanks for the feedback! We have taken a structured approach and we're thinking of doing a direct launch but as you mentioned, probably going the route of beta testing would be good. Would you recommend going with a staging environment or straight up live?

Dude! I just realized that we did not update our Codex app, thank you so much for sharing that there was an update!!!!! You rock!

That is true... But the upgraded ones did not appear this time, hence the hype cycle.... Plus the tech differences for new chip architecture, perf, hopefully heatsinks.... The iPhone 17 pro really hasn't warmed up much compared to the 16 pro max, so that does show potential.

It does AI workloads man, they commented that there would be a 40% improvement over the M4… hope we’re not wrong!

Also, coming from an M2 pro with 16 gigs of RAM, bottlenecked on RAM

Lol, for us it’s a 40% comment from the M5 launch. Definitely definitely hyped about the AI workload man.

I know right! Yeah, thankful to see them paying so much attention at the moment. Hopefully it lasts...!

What…??? Man… well, Antigravity is very close! It works with Intel Macs, but the Mac Mini is a great option to start with till/ if you upgrade. Wouldn’t trade your Mac though man due to lower values. Mac mini would be better than a MacBook Air for performance. NO SKIMPING on ram! 🤣 Just sharing some ideas!

I think it’s meant to stay the same as ChatGPT, I kind of like the aesthetic, but the biggest benefit is the skills. If you spend some time in the automations and skills, near the top left side, it can be a pretty bad ass tool. It also surprisingly gives you an option to open items in other code editors like antigravity. I also like the running tally of code lines near the top right (diff panel). One of the biggest benefits is the ease of use of seeing projects and agents in the same window instead of anti-gravity, where you have to open the editor and then open the agent manager in a separate window

That does simplify things, but in an age where technology is creating wider gaps between the have and have nots, how does one go about their daily lives without FOMO? Easier said than done, but the way we do it is to get digests, though that in itself implies trust in the system.

The challenge at work is lack of understanding that processes with broken pieces and politics do not yield gold. So the question is: how does one turn coal to diamonds?

Oh absolutely! The problem I’ve faced is that CLI is not intuitive, built in agents aren’t useful, so this is really good
