    TLDR

    Alex Heath posted about two new AI assistants generating buzz in Silicon Valley. Nathan Baschez noted that Instinct and Grok Bot receive attention because they accept more risk and allow agents to access and act with fewer step-by-step permissions. He compared this approach to the early appeal of Claude Code in a CLI format. The linked coverage from sources.news states that Instinct and Grok Bot provide glimpses of AI's direction.

    @nbaschezSheel’s take on why Instinct (and Grok Bot) are getting love is interesting - basically they are willing to take more risk, and let the agent access and do more without step-by-step permissions Reminds me of my pet theory about why Claude Code took off The CLI form factor, which was new at the time, had such a bad UX for trying to see what the agent is doing that it encouraged people to —dangerously-skip-permissions for the first time (whereas Cursor’s nicer diff approval UX was less painful so people kept it on). Combine this with timing of models getting good enough to trust, and you have a recipe for magic moments. Lesson for startups: risk is a nice wedge That being said, it’s a very short term advantage. ChatGPT and Claude will copy fast.
