It's time for another electric vehicle charging video. Too many people believe EV charging solutions require expensive, huge electric circuits (or worse: service upgrades). The really high-power ones people tend to go with can be a headache, but there are many other options! youtu.be/W96a8svXo14

"Design Patterns for Securing LLM Agents against Prompt Injections" is an excellent new paper that provides six design patterns to help protect LLM tool-using systems (call them "agents" if you like) against prompt injection attacks Here are my notes on the paper simonwillison.net/2025/Jun/13/...

I’m excited to finally share a project I’ve been working on for several months… I’ve published a long-form guide for how companies, communities, and creators can use Bluesky to grow their brands — you can check it out on @atpota.to. It’s not perfect, but it’s a solid start that I’ll keep updated!

Good read on How to use Claude Code @philippspiess.com spiess.dev/blog/how-i-u...

Yay 🎉

Here's video, slides and a detailed annotated transcript from my talk at this week's AI Engineer World's Fair conference in San Francisco - "The last year six months in LLMs, illustrated by pelicans on bicycles" simonwillison.net/2025/Jun/6/s...

I've been hoping for years that someone would build an event sourcing engine for local-first apps, and now @schickling.dev has done it! Hooray! livestore.dev

For anyone getting started with a homelab or self-hosting, this is an awesome introduction.

Introducing Eleven v3 (alpha) - the most expressive Text to Speech model ever. Supporting 70+ languages, multi-speaker dialogue, and audio tags such as [excited], [sighs], [laughing], and [whispers]. Now in public alpha and 80% off in June.

Launching a new blog series: Mobile On-Device AI 🚀 📱 While cloud computing is driving many AI breakthroughs, a significant opportunity is unfolding right in our hands - running AI locally on our ur mobile devices to faster, more private, and smarter apps. The main post: annjose.com/post/mobile-...

Hi 👋, Along with @annjose.com, I have been working on a side-project we're excited about - a bot that makes sense of the often overwhelming but informative Hacker News comments. It's called Hacker News Companion @hncompanion.com bsky.app/profile/hnco...

Big news! The 3rd edition of Automate the Boring Stuff with Python is now out! nostarch.com/automate-bor...

TIL that Claude Code increases the "thinking" budget to maximum if you tell it to "ultrathink", which is a step up from "megathink", which is a step up from "think" simonwillison.net/2025/Apr/19/...

Great framing from Dan about RSC.

one of my favorite ways to explain the value of RSC is to frame it as a React version of the BFF (“backend for frontend”) pattern. it doesn’t have anything to do with “server rendering”, SEO, or such. i think of it more as an alternative to (or a layer above) traditional JSON APIs. like BFF.

100% agree @addyosmani.bsky.social and @simonwillison.net Vibe coding is not a replacement for all coding, nor is it LLM-assisted coding. Yes, it does lower the inertia to build and is fun! But, it is dangerous to ship code without reviewing and ensuring that it is stable, secure and resilient.

Published a detailed guide on fine-tuning Gemma-3 27B using RunPod. This is a follow-up to my previous blog about using do-it-for-me solutions. I cover when the DIY approach makes financial sense with a real cost analysis showing 7x savings compared to managed services. #llm #fine-tuning #gemma3
