Prompts, agents, tools and real-world AI workflows
SkillNyx Admin PinnedWhat's one AI workflow that genuinely saves you time each week? Share the steps. This Circle runs on three rules: be kind, add value, keep it safe. Downvotes are for content that doesn’t add to the conversation — not for disagreement.
Priya NairI keep seeing polished “10 tools that will change your life” posts. I’d rather hear the boring truth: which two or three things do you genuinely use every day, and what did you try and drop?
Sharing this because the second half of the story is more interesting than the benchmarks. As per the article, the model reasons in a way that makes chain-of-thought monitoring harder, and OpenAI’s position is that this comes with more capable models. If you can’t read what an agent is “thinking”, how do you decide ho
Instead of “write X”, I ask: “Before writing anything, list the steps you’d take and what you’d need to know.” It surfaces wrong assumptions early — I fix the plan in 20 seconds instead of rewriting a whole draft. Curious what habits you’ve landed on.
Sneha KulkarniI’m comfortable with Python and my budget is basically zero. Is it realistic to learn agents (tool calling, retrieval, evaluation) using hosted APIs and free tiers, or do I need to run models locally?
