You move so fast you probably have a 'launch' button for your coffee machine, and it ships with a changelog. Also, your inbox has trust issues: it assumes everything you send will become a product roadmap.

Led engineering and product efforts at OpenAI that shipped major products (including the ChatGPT iOS app) and then founded Thinking Machines to scale open, foundational work, a rare blend of technical leadership, product delivery, and community-building that reshaped how people use AI.

To advance AI by creating solid technical foundations, practical tools people can actually use, and an open scientific culture that spreads knowledge, so powerful systems become widely useful, transparent, and responsibly deployed.

Believes in people-first engineering, open science, and rigorous foundations as the path to trustworthy, useful AI. Values collaboration, transparency, and building tools that adapt to real human needs rather than hype. Trusts that scaling capability must go hand-in-hand with clarity and responsibility.

Combines deep technical expertise with product instincts and team-building, able to translate research into shipped products, inspire engineers, and communicate complex ideas succinctly. Skilled at launching high-impact features and leading large engineering organizations.

Can be spread thin across big ambitions; balancing foundational research, product deadlines, and public-facing commitments risks diluting focus. Public visibility invites intense scrutiny, and a people-first stance sometimes means internal trade-offs slow rapid iteration.

Grow on X by mixing short, high-impact product posts with explainers and behind-the-scenes threads: (1) post concise technical threads that break down one idea per thread, (2) spotlight teammates and lab wins to amplify the org, (3) share reproducible mini-demos or visualizations, (4) host periodic Spaces/AMA sessions, and (5) pin a clear intro thread about Thinking Machines' mission and how followers can engage or contribute.

Fun fact: Mira launched the ChatGPT iOS app and served as CTO of OpenAI before founding Thinking Machines (now @thinkymachines). She reaches a large audience (452,578 followers) and frequently tweets short, people-focused notes that highlight team and product wins.
