## Posts
- [Daily Digest - 2026-07-15](https://www.antoinebuteau.com/daily-digest-2026-07-15.md) - Early proof that AI agents can iterate on their own code, suggesting capabilities will compound faster than expected. Researchers built AIDE², an AI that improves itself through two loops: an inner loop for code and an outer loop for the agent's harness.
- [Daily Digest - 2026-07-14](https://www.antoinebuteau.com/daily-digest-2026-07-14.md) - AI engineering is shifting from standalone autonomous agents toward the infrastructure around them: workflows, context, evaluations, permissions, and state. The practical goal is reliable systems that augment human operators, not autonomy for its own sake.
- [When the Odds Cannot Be Calculated](https://www.antoinebuteau.com/when-the-odds-cannot-be-calculated.md) - When probabilities and outcomes are impossible to predict, most investors flee. Richard Zeckhauser argues this domain of profound ignorance is precisely where the greatest returns are found—if you have the right framework.
- [Daily Digest - 2026-07-13](https://www.antoinebuteau.com/daily-digest-2026-07-13.md) - As AI agents take over more of the inner loop of writing and testing code, engineers must own the outer loop: defining checks, judging outputs, and remaining accountable for what reaches production.
- [Lessons from Bob Hoffman](https://www.antoinebuteau.com/lessons-from-bob-hoffman.md) - Bob Hoffman developed the Hoffman Process as an intensive retreat for unlearning destructive childhood patterns. His work centers on Negative Love: how children absorb painful parental traits to secure affection, and how adults can unwind those inherited behaviors.
- [Daily Digest - 2026-07-12](https://www.antoinebuteau.com/daily-digest-2026-07-12.md) - Enterprises risk giving model providers their most valuable knowledge through corrections, context, and prompts. Durable advantage requires private evaluation systems, clear trust boundaries, and ownership of the learning loops that turn activity into institutional memory.
- [When Do AI Agents Actually Need Blockchains?](https://www.antoinebuteau.com/when-do-ai-agents-actually-need-blockchains.md) - Jeremy Allaire argues that AI agents need economic infrastructure for payments, identity, and coordination. This explainer separates the functions that genuinely benefit from blockchains from those better handled by conventional systems, clarifying where onchain architecture earns its complexity.
- [Lessons from Jon Taffer](https://www.antoinebuteau.com/lessons-from-jon-taffer.md) - Jon Taffer is a hospitality operator and longtime host of Bar Rescue. His operating philosophy centers on reaction management: deliberately shaping how customers, employees, and owners feel inside a business system to improve accountability, retention, and turnaround outcomes.
- [Lessons from Jaya Gupta](https://www.antoinebuteau.com/lessons-from-jaya-gupta.md) - Jaya Gupta is a partner at Foundation Capital focused on enterprise software and AI infrastructure. Drawing on startup operating experience, she backs technical founders building the picks-and-shovels systems that reshape how companies adopt and use AI.
- [Daily Digest - 2026-07-11](https://www.antoinebuteau.com/daily-digest-2026-07-11.md) - Thinking Machines is betting that useful AI will be customizable, specialized, and owner-operated. The argument moves beyond centralized general models toward systems that extend local knowledge and human judgment instead of replacing them.
- [AI Traffic Is Becoming Workflow Traffic](https://www.antoinebuteau.com/ai-traffic-is-becoming-workflow-traffic.md) - OpenRouter's 100 trillion token usage study suggests AI demand is shifting from simple text generation toward reasoning, tools, code, and context-heavy workflows. This explainer maps what that change means for model providers, infrastructure, and the economics of serving AI.
- [AI 2040 Is a Governance Plan, Not a Forecast](https://www.antoinebuteau.com/ai-2040-is-a-governance-plan-not-a-forecast.md) - AI Futures Project's AI 2040 scenario is less a prediction than a governance proposal. This explainer examines its case for compute verification, research transparency, and international coordination strong enough to slow a race toward concentrated control.
- [Daily Digest - 2026-07-10](https://www.antoinebuteau.com/daily-digest-2026-07-10.md) - OpenAI's new model lineup pairs stronger coding and agent capabilities with a unified ChatGPT and Codex desktop experience. The release also lowers developer costs and gives users more control over orchestrating complex work.
- [Daily Digest - 2026-07-09](https://www.antoinebuteau.com/daily-digest-2026-07-09.md) - Cursor's usage data reveals a steep power law among AI-assisted engineers and confirms that agents spend far more tokens reading code than writing it. Context processing and caching are becoming core infrastructure concerns.
- [Daily Digest - 2026-07-08](https://www.antoinebuteau.com/daily-digest-2026-07-08.md) - Chinese technology companies are closing the AI performance gap with domestic chips, competitive frontier models, and AI-first engineering practices. The result is an increasingly self-sufficient stack spanning silicon, models, and software development.
- [AI Delegation Is a Management Choice, Not a Capability Test](https://www.antoinebuteau.com/ai-delegation-is-a-management-choice-not-a-capability-test.md) - A study of 199 startup founders suggests AI adoption depends as much on managerial willingness to delegate work as on beliefs about model capability. This explainer shows why adoption is a management-design choice, not simply a technology-readiness test.
- [AI Adoption Fails When Firms Cannot Map It to Work](https://www.antoinebuteau.com/ai-adoption-fails-when-firms-cannot-map-it-to-work.md) - A field experiment with 515 startups suggests AI creates firm-level gains when teams learn where to reorganize work around it, rather than merely gaining access to tools. This explainer connects adoption outcomes to workflow mapping, experimentation, and organizational change.
