OpenAI is getting Deepseek’d again.

@Convergence_ai_, a tiny London startup just built one of the most capable AI agents for the web.

Proxy is outperforming Operator on every benchmark handpicked by @OpenAI.



Let’s dive in! 🧵↓ proxy.convergence.aiImage
Let’s start with this, proof that funding isn’t everything.

@OpenAI raised $18 billion.

@Convergence_ai_? Just $12 million! That’s 0.067% of OpenAI’s budget.



And yet, Proxy is faster, smarter, fully autonomous.

Keep scrolling for comparison videos! ↓tech.eu/2024/09/27/con…
Task 1: Find chicken recipes.

❌ Operator gives up after 4 minutes.
✔️ Proxy completes it twice before Operator finishes.
✔️ Not only that, Proxy also delivers complete results.

3/
Task 2: Get the latest basketball news.

❌ Operator gets stuck on a CAPTCHA and needs human help.
✔️ Proxy bypasses it instantly with no manual input.
❌ Operator provides just a link with minimal info.
✔️ Proxy delivers full details in under a minute.

4/
Task 3: Find top-rated @Tripadvisor stays.

❌ Operator takes over 2 minutes and delivers less information.
✔️ Proxy finds 5 top-rated stays in 56 seconds with prices, ratings, and reviews.

5/
Task 4: Get the latest US economy news.

❌ Operator is slow and less informative.
✔️ Proxy provides a detailed, high-quality summary faster.

6/
What’s more, Proxy is ranked #1 globally via the WebVoyager benchmark which assesses agentic capabilities across 600 web based tasks.

7/ Image
.... and when it comes to cost, it’s not even a question.

→ Operator costs $200.
→ Proxy is Free, with a $20/month Pro option.

Check it out:

But wait… there’s more.

Proxy does stuff that Operator simply can’t.

→ Schedule automations to run on repeat - your own AI agent on autopilot. → Instantly share automations on X/Twitter so anyone can run them... with one click! 🤯

9/ Image
That’s a wrap!

Proxy beats Operator where it matters most: speed, autonomy, features, and cost.

Try it for free or go Pro for just $20/month.

If this was useful, a quick RT would go a long way in giving this London startup a voice and some more oomph against the industry giants! 💪

CodeRabbit in Cursor changes everything.

Now you can vibe-code in Cursor, then vibe-fix it with CodeRabbit! 🔥

And it works in Windsurf, VS Code, Claude Code, OpenAI Codex…

Here’s how to do it 🧵↓
1/

Let’s get started by installing the CodeRabbit extension


Find CodeRabbit in your IDE’s extension marketplace.

You're all set! 🙌 coderabbit.ai/ide
2/

Vibe-code as usual.

Before committing, just click `Review All Changes`

CodeRabbit picks up your branch, finds the edits, and runs a thorough review...

If you’ve ever had a hard time wrapping your head around all the layers and matrix stuff inside an #LLM, this site is a game-changer! 🔥

One of the clearest, most interactive breakdowns I’ve seen! 🧵 ↓
It walks you through each core piece, step by step:

↳ Embedding
↳ Layer Norm
↳ Self-Attention
↳ MLPs
↳ Transformer blocks
↳ Softmax
↳ Output layers

All explained visually, intuitively.
Here’s the app →

Kudos to @brendanbycroft for making this gem!

Seriously, one of the coolest tools out there for truly seeing how LLMs work! 👏👏👏 bbycroft.net/llmImage

This is crazy.

Postman's new AI Agent Builder lets you turn any API (from over 100,000!) into an MCP server in seconds, no code required! 🤯

Your custom MCP server, ready to use in Cursor, Windsurf, Claude Desktop, Docker, and more! 🧵↓ Image
1/

First, start here →

You’ve got literally 100,000+ APIs to check out!

1. mix and match any endpoints you want
2. download your custom zip file
3. that’s it! fnf.dev/4mGnOYq
Mind = blown.

That zip file has EVERYTHING:
↳ a readme with setup instructions
↳ your selected endpoints
↳ all the files to run your MCP server locally, on Cursor, Windsurf… even Docker!

You also get an .env file with your prefilled variables → just add your API keys! 🔥 Image

Google just dropped some wild Gemini updates at I/O 2025.

Buckle up, here’s what’s new 🧵 ↓ Image
1/

Veo 3 is the first video model with native sound.

↳ Generates movement, ambient audio, even character dialogue
↳ Simulates physics impressively well

Just write a prompt and it builds the whole scene! 🤯

Imagen 4 is Google’s most powerful image model yet.

It generates richer visuals with nuanced colors, intricate details, and superior typography.

Generation speed looks blazingly fast too! ⚡

Wow! Google is building a coding agent called Jules.

Looks more user-friendly than @OpenAI’s Codex.

It can do a lot!
↳connect to GitHub and open PRs
↳run or write tests
↳verify code in a cloud VM
↳share its plan, reasoning, and diffs 🔥
