Stop Writing Code To Clean Up After Your AI

Join the Clarity open source harness waitlist: https://heyclarity.dev/ Build AI that actually works: https://heyclarity.dev/ Self Aligned Newsletter: https://www.selfaligned.me/ A new model just came out of stealth claiming 440x cheaper and 193x faster than OpenAI and Anthropic for structured decisions, with output tokens priced at zero. The win isn’t a smarter model, it’s that it never writes words, so there’s nothing for your code to parse and nothing to hallucinate. I sat down with my co-founder Jonathan on Type Safe’s new system one model, and why most AI calls inside your software never needed to write words in the first place. Jonathan’s hands-on test with early access, why open weight models just hit 78% of token volume on Vercel, what Cursor teaches you about building a moat against the frontier labs, and why you should not use this model for compaction. If you’re an AI builder or a tech exec who is still writing code to parse, check and clean up what your model spits out, you need to watch this.
