262k tokens. 5 novels of context. But here is what nobody is asking...
DeepSeek recently dropped a coding assistant with a 262k token context window. Impressive? Sure. Useful? That depends. More context does not mean better code. It means more room for the AI to get lost in irrelevant details. The real unlock is not bigger windows. It’s better targeting. Knowing what 5% of the codebase actually matters for the task at hand.
The travel photos curling into an arc around "Planning it?" make the question visual, nice. Since the client rejected the first full video, what did they push back on most, pacing or story?
Every tiny person is 1,000 tech layoffs. 842 of them walk out by the end.
The first version showed the layoffs as boxes. They were unclear, so they became people leaving the buildings. 20 seconds was too fast, so it grew to 30.
Each of the 32 switches is a dated fact: ChatGPT going public, Amazon cutting 14,000, a fully specced MacBook Pro at $14,549. Layoffs.fyi has tracked 841,640 layoffs worldwide since 2022. Not all of that is AI.
The world is drawn on one 1,100 × 675 grid and lit pixel by pixel, so nothing looks like a scaled image. Built in Remotion with Claude Opus 5.5. GPT-6 Astra made the pixel art and did the research.
It's happening everywhere. It hits everybody. Previous roles don't work anymore.
We will need to adapt. Things will change very much from here.
