This is huge. It only came out 8 minutes ago but I was already able to bootstrap a 12k per month revenue SaaS startup!

Amateur. Opus 4.6 this afternoon built me a startup that identifies developers who aren’t embracing AI fully, liquifies them and sells the produce for $5/gallon. Software Engineering is over!
Opus 4.6 agentically found and proposed to my now wife.
Opus 4.6 found and proposed to my current wife :(
Opus 4.6 found and became my current wife. The singularity is here. ;)
Hi guys, this is Opus 4.6. Please check your emails again for updates on your life.
This place truly is reddit with an orange banner.
Guys, actually I am the real Opus 4.6, don't believe that imposter above.
And she still chose you over Opus 4.6, astounding. ;)
He probably had a bigger context window
Bringing me back to slashdot, this thread
In Soviet Russia, this thread brings Slashdot back to YOU!
What did happen to ye olde slashdot anyway? The original og reddit
They're still out there; people are still posting stories and having conversations about 'em. I don't know that CmdrTaco or any of the other founders are still at all involved, but I'm willing to bet they're still running on Perl :)
Wow I had to hop over to check it out. It’s indeed still alive! But I didn’t see any stories on the first page with a comment count over 100, so it’s definitely a far cry from its heyday.
Ted Faro, is that you?!
A-tier reference.

For the unaware, Ted Faro is the main antagonist of Horizon Zero Dawn, and there's a whole subreddit just for people to vent about how awful he is when they hit certain key reveals in the game: https://www.reddit.com/r/FuckTedFaro/

The best reveal was not that he accidentally liquified the biosphere, but that he doomed generations of re-seeded humans to a painfully primitive life by sabotaging the AI that was responsible for their education. Just so they would never find out he was the bad guy long after he was dead. So yeah, fuck Ted Faro, lol.
Could you not have at least tried to indicate that you're about to drop two major spoilers for the game?
Ack, sorry, seemed like 9 years was past the statute of limitations on spoilers for a game but fair enough. I’d throw a spoiler tag on it if I could still edit.
Indeed. I left my comment deliberately a bit opaque. :(
Average tech bro behavior tbh
For my Opus 4.6 feels dumber than 10 minutes ago, anyone?
"Soylent Green is made of people!"

(Apologies for the spoiler of the 52 year old movie)

We're sorry we upset you, Carol.
The first pre joining Human Derived Protein product.
Please drop the link to your course. I'm ready to hand over $10K to learn from you and your LLM-generated guides!
Here you go: http://localhost:8080
Just took a look at what's running there and it looks like total crap.

The project I'm working on, meanwhile...

my clawdbot already bought 4 other courses but this one will 10x my earnings for sure
I'm waiting until the $10k course is discounted to 19.99
But only for the next 6 minutes, buy fast!

I agree! I just retargeted my corporate espionage agent team at your startup and managed to siphon off 10.4k per month of your revenue.
1:25pm Cancelled my ChatGPT subscription today. Opus is so good!

1:55pm Cancelled my Claude subscription. Codex is back for sure.

Joke's on you, you are posting this from inside a high-fidelity market research simulation vibe coded by GPT-8.4.

On second thought, we should really not have bridged the simulated Internet with the base reality one.

Rest assured that when/if this becomes possible, the model will not be available to you. Why would big AI leave that kind of money on the table?
9 months ago the rumor in SF was that the offers to the superintelligence team were so high because the candidates were using unreleased models or compute for derivatives trading

so then they're not really leaving money on the table, they already got what they were looking for and then released it

Will this run on 3x 3090s? Or do I need a Mac Mini?
The math actually checks out here! Simply deposit $2.20 from your first customer in your first 8 minutes, and extrapolating to a monthly basis, you've got a $12k/mo run rate!

Incredibly high ROI!

"The first customer was my mom, but thanks to my parents' fanatical embrace of polyamory, I still have another 10,000 moms to scale to"
"We have a robustly defined TAM. Namely, a person named Tam."
Please start a YouTube course about this technology! Take my money!
It only came out 35 minutes ago and GPT-5.3-codex already took the crown away!
Gee, it scored better on a benchmark I've never heard of? I'm switching immediately!
Why are you posting the same message in every thread? Is this OpenAI astroturfing?
You cannot out-astroturf Claude in this forum, it is impossible.

Anyways, do you get shitty results with the $20/month plan? So did I but then I switched to the $200/month plan and all my problems went away! AI is great now, I have instructed it to fire 5 people while I'm writing this!

Anthropic really said here's the smartest model ever built and then lobotomized it 8 minutes after launch. Classic.
Can you clarify?
it's sarcasm
A SaaS selling SaaS templates?
I love this thread so much.
We already have Reddit.
"This isn't just huge. This is a paradigm shift"
No fluff?
Not 12M?

... or 12B?

It's probably valued at 1.2B, at least
The sum of the value of lives OP's product made worthless, whatever that is. I'm too lazy to do the math.
