Open Source AI Setup Repo Hits 800 Stars on GitHub
Yo real talk we did not expect this kind of love when we open sourced our AI setup repo but here we are sitting at 800 stars and 100 forks and we are genuinely hyped about it. The repo is a collection of AI agent setups configs and workflows that you can plug straight into your projects. No gatekeeping just pure community goodness. We built this because setting up AI agents from scratch every single time is a massive time sink. So we said forget it lets just share everything openly and let the community build on top of it. Repo is right here: [https://github.com/caliber-ai-org/ai-setup](https://github.com/caliber-ai-org/ai-setup) Now we want YOUR input. What setups are you missing? What features would make this a no brainer for your workflow? Drop your ideas below because we are building in public and your feedback actually ships. LGM 🚀

Nvidia Exec: AI Currently More Expensive Than Human Workers
Nvidia’s vice president of applied deep learning, Bryan Catanzaro, recently stated that for his team, “the cost of compute is far beyond the costs of the employees,” highlighting that AI is currently more expensive than human workers. This challenges the narrative that widespread tech layoffs (including Meta’s planned cut of \~8,000 jobs and Microsoft’s voluntary buyouts) signal an imminent replacement of humans by AI. An MIT study from 2024 supports this, finding that AI automation is economically viable in only 23% of roles where vision is central, and cheaper for humans in the remaining 77%. Despite heavy AI investment—Big Tech has announced $740 billion in capital expenditures so far this year, a 69% increase from 2025—there is still no clear evidence of broad productivity gains or job displacement from AI. AI spending is driving up costs, with some executives like Uber’s CTO saying their budgets have already been “blown away.” Experts describe the situation as a short-term mismatch: high hardware, energy, and inference costs make AI less efficient than humans right now, though future improvements in infrastructure, model efficiency, and pricing models could tip the balance toward greater economic viability in the coming years.
