This is a great idea. Can you share more about what "24 specialized agents" mean in this context? I assume each agent is not simply an LLM model with a specific prompt (e.g. "You're the world's best biologist. Review this biology research paper.") but is a lot more sophisticated. I am trying to learn how sophisticated it is
Zoo co-founder here. Our product is still pre-v1. But getting to v1 very soon. We actually built a whole new CAD kernel from the ground up. I say this because we can't actually train on models the CAD engine does not yet support. Just 2 weeks ago we shipped csg boolean operations to the CAD engine. This unlocked new data to train our model on that use those operations. So its actually fair to say at the time he used our model we using about 2% of the data we actually have. Once we can use more and more the ability of the model will only get better.
Training an audio model this good from 0 prior experience is really amazing. I would love to read a blog post about how you guys approached ramping up knowledge and getting practical quickly. Any plans?
I'm a fan of your work! I'm curious about how you decided to work on building a terminal for your next project among your other ideas. If you have time later, could you share your main motivation with us or link to an existing post if you already mentioned it elsewhere?
It’s fast. In the same league as Alacritty and Wezterm, which is to say on the doom fire benchmark those terminals can do 500fps plus, where iTerm2 does 90fps on my M4 MacBook Pro. In practical terms if you use tmux or vim in the terminal, it makes a big difference for typing latency and scrolling.
I am not a very adept terminal user. I just hook in to tmux. So all emulators are basically the same for me. Switching windows in tmux is much faster than clicking on tabs. ghostty at least looks much nicer. It has a lot of built in fonts and themes. Command line editing is similar. Man pages for some reason are very slow to open in iterm2, but that isn't the case here. The only deal breaker for me is that it takes up a lot of cpu (in macbook air). Unless there is a simple, non-consequential config to change that will fix this, I will stay with iterm for now.

Sure, if you're clicking tabs... A fairer comparison would be between the keyboard shortcut to switch windows in tmux and the native keyboard shortcut to switch tabs.
Several years ago Twilio wasn't so bad. It always had pretty antiquated API practices and felt clunky but it worked.
Nowadays, it's expensive and contains a ton of hoops to jump through for business and a2p verification. They charge you for many things (monthly for a number, for verification, every submission for a2p and re-submission if they reject it for whatever reason). I tried to contact support and they wanted me to upgrade to a support plan to even ask a question.
If I don't find a simpler solution I'll remove transactional SMS messages entirely from my application. I'd rather remove it than deal with Twilio.
