AI Productivity Gains
Operator, Deep Research, and Bolt
Hey 👋
I did a demo working with Operator and Deep Research of OpenAI and Google, comparing them.
Also, while there are hefty productivity gains already possible, v2 and further versions of e.g. Operator will give us insane productivity gains. Because open-source is pushing hard.
ONE MORE THING: I share my learnings with you, and keep you updated on AI/ how to build best with AI, as new tools/ AI will be launched.
I am launching the updated online course: Everyone can Code!✨ (Updated, because it keeps valuable lessons on working with AI, but has a chapter that I update constantly.)
🚨Special DEAL: Get a yearly Premium Subscription to this newsletter and receive the course Everyone can Code!✨for free!🚨 (Together worth 200 €)
(You will be emailed with the course entry. Current Premium subscribers will get access to the course automatically.)
The future of presentations, powered by AI
Gamma’s AI creates beautiful presentations, websites, and more. No design or coding skills required. Try it free today.
(✨ If you don’t want ads like these, Premium is the solution. It is like you are buying me a Starbucks Iced Honey Apple Almondmilk Flat White a month.)
[Demo] OpenAI’s Operator can perform multiple tasks in parallel
To run Operator you need to have an OpenAI Pro account (200$/m). If you are from the EU, like me as I am from Munich, Germany, you even need to use a VPN to have access to this tool.
Operator, sort of like your AI EA, is in its first version. And not yet effective at all times. However, I am learning to work with it in the most productive way possible.
In this video I demo how to outsource multiple tasks to an Operator fleet. I hope it helps.
The next version must be significantly better, as there are already open-source versions for close to 0€.
[Demo] Deep Research: Google vs. OpenAI
Both OAI and Google have released a Deep Research feature within their AI tool, ChatGPT and Gemini respectively.
As I have access to both (oh boy, all of these subscriptions .. 🥲), I thought I will do a direct comparison of A) how well their reasearch capabilities are and B) how well they can reason over the findings.
I hope you enjoy it. (Who do you think has the better product?)
(It is OpenAI’s version of Deep Research. 😉 )
Bolt(.new) Updates
If you want to build (AI/ tech) products (which everyone can do these days), I consistently see incredible productivity gains when combining Bolt.new with Cursor’s AI Agent. Bolt(.new) for the coarse-grained things you want to code like UI/ UX/ DB etc., and Cursor for the fine-grained adaptation of the product.
Pro tip: When you are stuck with hard problems you can’t solve in cursor, use OpenAI’s o1 in Pro Mode. With this, you are, hands down, unstoppable.
These tools update their tools btw. very frequently. Literally, every week one of them pushes a minor or major feature.
Especially, Bolt has had a lot of improvement. So, I thought I mention my main ones:
Integration of he DeepSeek R1 reasoning model
ICYMI: DeepSeek is coming to @boltdotnew
Already landed in our OSS version, incredible results

Terminal error detection integration (catches like 35% of all errors)
Bolt 🧠 update: Terminal Errors Detection
Some errors are hard to catch: they happen in the terminal where we don't often look.
Bolt is now tightly integrated with your app's development environment to automatically detect issues and gather the data needed for the fix!

Smart imports (most of the errors come from dependency issues like this)
Bolt 🧠 update: Smart Imports
'export default' might not be the most thrilling part of your codebase. But it is important!
The latest update in Bolt's engine ensures that all imports and exports are correct.
Live now on all projects!

Crazy one: makes it faster, saves tokens, less errors → leverage external assets
More tokens savings landed!
Bolt's agent leverages external assets now instead of allowing the LLM to create new ones from scratch.
This saves hundreds of thousands of tokens—and is orders of magnitude faster! 🤩

Awesome tools are being built (one of many examples)
Minecraft avec bolt.new ! 🤯

If you stay on top of these three apps/ tools, you are going to be unstoppable.
Awesome time to be alive.
I hope you enjoyed it.
Happy weekend!
