"My token usage is probably down 30x compared to before.” Tim Davis, Co-Founder & President Modular on why he builds AI tooling locally first: “Token usage is incredibly expensive. If you just throw your whole codebase into a model, you’re constantly uploading everything and burning hundreds of thousands or...

$OGPU token is no longer waiting for utility. It is live. Most people still haven’t understood what this means. $OGPU is now connected to some of the most powerful AI models in the world. Claude. GPT. DeepSeek. Kling 3.0. Gemini And more. Top up Relay with $OGPU and unlock up to +20% extra AI credits. That means more Claude usage for the same spend than going direct. Not vaporware. Not a future promise. Live token utility. Once people actually use it, the power of $OGPU token becomes very hard to ignore. $OGPU = AI credits = model usage = real demand Powered by OpenGPU.

Building AI agents and tools is getting ridiculously easy! Here is a pretty impressive FREE and Open-Source AI agent builder that runs on your computer. It's a desktop app you can install on Mac or Windows. Link: • Free • 100% no-code: You can type what you want, and the tool will build everything for you. • You can use local models like DeepSeek or Qwen, or connect to cloud models like GPT-4o, Claude, or Gemini with your API key. • You can turn the tools you build into MCP Servers. I recorded a quick video to show you how easy it is to build something from scratch.

Boris Cherny, the creator of Claude Code at Anthropic, just listed 9 patterns that waste 73% of your tokens. in this podcast he breaks down exactly how the model burns tokens before it even reads your prompt: - the 14% you lose to CLAUDE.md before typing a word - the 13% you pay re-reading old chat history - the 11% from hooks you forgot you installed - why most "Claude got dumber" complaints are wrong if you're hitting Max limits more than once a week, you have at least 4 of these. Probably 7. instead of another show tonight, watch this. my own breakdown based on 400+ hours of usage is below, read it after the podcast

BREAKING: Zach Dell (Zach Dell) CEO of Base Power says " Chinese models are going to overtake domestic models in usage." "I spend a lot of my time thinking about energy, the country, & our ability to consume, generate, store, sell electricity. And I spend a lot of time thinking about China & their ability to produce & consume electricity. One thing that has been interesting to me is Chinese tokens & the rate at which they're being generated & the cost. My hot take is that Chinese models are going to overtake domestic models in terms of usage. If you look at platforms like OpenRouter & other online platforms where you can track model usage, I think the Chinese are gonna continue investing incredibly heavily in energy production. They're going to capture the Watt flop or the Watt token spread by turning a lot of that energy into compute. And that's gonna drive massive amount of usage in Chinese models, which just means we have to go faster. The US energy infrastructure industry has to go faster. We have to build power faster. We have to develop compute infrastructure faster. We must accelerate." "We're here at Hill & Valley, which has me feeling awfully patriotic." Base Power at Hill & Valley Forum 2026 (The Hill & Valley Forum)

Dylan on why access to the most intelligent AI models will determine who wins in every industry: "What really matters is access to the most intelligent tokens and leveraging them at the highest-value tasks. A lot of folks will want tokens, but the shitty SaaS startup in SF who is using Claude is not necessarily creating a ton of value, and therefore they're going to get priced out of tokens. Anthropic only released Mythos to certain companies for cybersecurity. You also don't want people to distill your model so you release them to a fewer and fewer customers. Those customers are now wrestling over the tokens. Token usage and therefore the additional value generated on top of those tokens aggregates among fewer and fewer companies. I don't have Mythos but you know who has Mythos, top banks. There are people like Ken Griffin of Citadel who can just sign a deal with OpenAI or Antrhopic for access to your models. I'll buy the first $10 billion worth of tokens each year. So whenever you release the model, I'll spend the first 10 billion tokens and then everyone else can get the model after that. Now, he's going to crush everyone in the markets. I can envision because I have an enterprise Anthropic contract and Anthropic people like me, they're willing to give us slightly earlier access or higher rate limits, and then my competitor doesn't have that, and I'm able to f*cking crush them."

Day 5 of why you need to use Jupiter Mobile: TRUSTED TOKEN DATA & INSIGHTS See trusted, verified token data + a clean feed of relevant content in Jupiter Mobile Token Pro’s ‘About’ section – powered by VRFD, Jupiter’s verified data layer for token information and insights. Onchain finance has never had a reliable source of truth for token information. Most wallets surface raw links or leave you to dig through socials and explorers. Instead, you get: - Simple summaries explaining what the token is and what’s currently happening - A clean feed of verified community insights, not random noise - Verified token metadata with direct links to official websites and socials If a token is covered by VRFD, you see community-validated information. If it isn’t, the full project X feed is surfaced automatically, so you still have full context. What used to take digging across multiple pages now lives directly on the token page. Just Use Jupiter (Mobile).

YC Managing Partner Harj Taggar says many young founders are still too conservative with token spend and advises them to not skimp on token budget. "Token spend is more like rent. You don't say, 'I'm not moving to San Francisco to build my tech startup because the rent's expensive.' Yes, it's expensive, but it's the place to be. You don't conserve on that. You actually want to spend money on that. There's other things you save money on." "Many of the founders, especially if they're younger, just don't have the budgets to use the latest models and be cost insensitive and token-max. They're just used to conserving and trying to do more with less." "Internally, we wonder if there's some training to push the founders to spend more on tokens because maybe they're thinking about tokens as something you should conserve spend on."

In between major AI model breakthroughs, new models still ship, but they’re not fundamentally expanding what you can do with them. Braintrust CEO Ankur Goyal says that’s exactly when open source starts to surge: "When new models come out, people forget about open source and forget about economics because it changes fundamentally what you can do." "Programming is a good example. The workflow today is completely different than it was a year ago. If you tried to use models from a year ago today, you wouldn't be able to do crazy stuff like OpenClaw or whatever people are building nowadays." "When models don't change at that speed, people optimize the performance on the use cases that they have." "If you look at usage on our platform, almost half the token usage is coming from open source models from a very small number of companies that have figured out how to optimize use cases really well."
