Frontier AI Labs with Wil Waldon
Hosted by Frontier AI Labs · EN
Hi 👋 I'm Wil Waldon. I build products with Claude and I teach others how to do the same.
I've been writing code for 15+ years. Fullstack product engineering, MVPs for early-stage founders, a couple of exits. These days most of my workflow runs through Claude. Claude Code, the API, system prompts, MCP servers. I use all of it daily.
This channel is where I break down how I actually use Claude to build and ship work. Not hype. Not demos that fall apart outside a screen recording.

The $500 AI System I'd Build for Any Small Business
5d ago00:09:25Tap to summarizeToday I want to walk through how to put together a simple AI system for a small business using three tools. Claude, Make, and a form builder like Typeform or Tally. By the end of this you'll know how to set things up so new customer inquiries get answered automatically, leads who go quiet get followed up with, and a two-minute voice memo turns into a week of social media posts.Before any of that makes sense I should probably explain what these tools actually are.Claude is an AI assistant. Same general category as ChatGPT, made by a different company called Anthropic. You can use it free at claude dot ai. People who use AI for real work tend to prefer it because it writes in a more natural voice and handles bigger documents better.Make is an automation platform. The way to think about it is that it connects apps to each other so they can pass information back and forth without you copying and pasting. You build little flows where one thing triggers another. If you've heard of Zapier, it's the same idea. Make is usually cheaper and gives you more room to do interesting stuff.Typeform and Tally are form builders. Drag and drop, no coding, you put a form together in maybe ten minutes and paste a link to it on your website.Reach out >>> https://wilwaldon.com

SpaceX pitches Starlink as a GPS alternative
2w ago00:18:16Tap to summarizeThe development of next-generation positioning, navigation, and timing (PNT) systems to supplement or replace the aging Global Positioning System (GPS). SpaceX has formally proposed using its Starlink satellite constellation to provide low-Earth orbit (LEO) navigation services, highlighting its potential for resilient, high-bandwidth connectivity that functions independently of traditional military-run signals. Academic research and technical reports further examine how signals of opportunity from various private satellite networks can be harnessed to improve accuracy and spoofing resistance for drones and maritime vessels. While these innovations offer a robust backup against electronic warfare, some experts express concerns regarding system privatization and the potential for subscription-based access fees. Technical simulations reveal that satellite trajectory accuracy and geographic latitude remain critical factors in determining the reliability of these emerging space-based navigation alternatives. Collectively, the documents advocate for a diversified PNT ecosystem to ensure global security and economic stability.

OpenAI’s $14 Billion Problem and the New AI Cybersecurity War
2w ago00:21:13Tap to summarizeOpenAI, Anthropic, and Nvidia are moving artificial intelligence beyond chatbots and into one of the most valuable markets in tech: cybersecurity and enterprise AI.OpenAI recently introduced Daybreak, a GPT-5.5-powered cybersecurity platform built to find software vulnerabilities before hackers can exploit them. The launch puts OpenAI in direct competition with Anthropic’s Mythos model and Project Glasswing, as the biggest AI companies race to build tools for threat detection, vulnerability scanning, and corporate defense.But there is another side to the story. Security experts and government agencies, including the Five Eyes intelligence alliance, have warned that AI could also help criminals discover zero-day vulnerabilities, automate cyberattacks, and launch more sophisticated hacking campaigns.At the same time, OpenAI is facing major financial pressure. The company is reportedly projecting a $14 billion loss in 2026 as it spends heavily on AI infrastructure, data centers, and model development. To turn enterprise AI into real revenue, OpenAI has launched OpenAI Deployment Company, a new unit designed to place engineers directly inside businesses and help them build custom AI systems.Nvidia is playing a different but equally powerful game. The chipmaker has invested $40 billion across the AI sector, backing companies that depend on its GPUs and reinforcing demand for its hardware. In effect, Nvidia is helping fund the ecosystem that keeps buying its chips.This episode breaks down how AI is shifting from consumer apps to cybersecurity, why enterprise deployment may be the real business model, and how OpenAI, Anthropic, and Nvidia are positioning themselves for the next phase of the AI boom.Thanks for listening to the show.

Transcribe →Anthropic Just Pulled a Terrible Move
3w ago00:10:16Tap to summarizeAnthropic is testing a change that removes Claude Code from the Pro plan for some new users, and I think it is a mistake.In this video, I break down what changed, why people noticed so fast, and why this kind of pricing test sends a bad message to the exact users most likely to adopt Claude Code, stick with it, and eventually upgrade. I also go through Anthropic’s response, why it feels like damage control, and what I think may be coming next.If you use Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, or AI coding tools every day, this is worth paying attention to.#ClaudeCode #Anthropic #AIcoding #ClaudeAI #AIDevTools
Transcribe →The Threat Musk Sent OpenAI Right Before Court
3w ago00:10:18Tap to summarizeOpenAI's Sunday court filing exposed a private text exchange where Elon Musk pushed for settlement two days before trial, then threatened Greg Brockman and Sam Altman when Brockman pushed back. Inside the filing, the judge's ruling, the Kalshi market collapse, and what it all means for the rest of the trial.

The Trial of OpenAI: Musk v. Altman Courtroom Showdown
4w ago00:16:14Tap to summarizeA high-stakes legal confrontation has emerged in Oakland, California, as Elon Musk takes OpenAI and its leadership to court. The lawsuit centers on allegations that Sam Altman and Greg Brockman abandoned the organization's original nonprofit mission in favor of commercial interests and massive private investments. While Musk is pursuing billions of dollars in damages to be returned to charitable causes, the defense maintains that his legal claims are entirely without merit. This trial serves as a critical examination of corporate ethics and whether the company's founding principles can still govern its multi-billion-dollar trajectory. As jury selection concludes, the proceedings highlight a bitter rivalry between former partners over the responsible development of artificial intelligence.

Anthropic Mythos Automates 20 Hour Network Attacks
Apr 2300:15:49Tap to summarizeA significant escalation in digital risk following the emergence of Claude Mythos, an advanced AI model capable of autonomously breaching corporate networks. Reports from the UK’s AI Security Institute and various cybersecurity experts highlight that this technology can discover zero-day vulnerabilities and execute complex attack chains in seconds, far outstripping human defensive capabilities. In response, government officials in the UK have issued urgent warnings to businesses, advocating for rigorous cyber hygiene and board-level oversight. Concurrently, OpenAI has introduced GPT-5.4-Cyber to provide defensive tools for security teams attempting to keep pace with these evolving threats. Industry analysts suggest this "Oppenheimer Moment" marks a shift where application-layer security is no longer sufficient, requiring a transition toward data-centric protection and zero-trust architectures. Ultimately, the sources emphasize that while AI offers powerful new tools for software defense, it simultaneously grants attackers unprecedented speed and scale.
Transcribe →Hydrogen Leaks and Filters Stall Artemis_II
Feb 1600:27:06Tap to summarizeNASA is currently addressing persistent hydrogen leaks and ground equipment failures hindering the Artemis 2 moon mission's preparation. Recent "confidence tests" intended to verify repairs to the Space Launch System rocket's fueling seals were only partially successful due to a faulty filter. Despite these technical setbacks, agency leadership remains optimistic about meeting a March launch window following an upcoming full-scale rehearsal. Administrator Jared Isaacman has indicated that while safety limits for leaks were recently relaxed based on new data, the fueling interfaces will likely require a complete redesign for future missions. These reports highlight the ongoing financial and technical challenges of maintaining the bespoke SLS architecture as NASA transitions toward more modern, reusable flight hardware.
