noam is one of the people I have most wanted to work with since the very beginning of openai. only took 10 years. i think it will be worth the wait!
86-account seed digest: Sam Altman gets his Noam, WebGPU tracks motion, and Sophia posts Barcelona — June 18
A June 18 Beijing-time digest from the 86 public seed accounts currently available for checking, not the full @hwwaanng following list. The scan checked 1,256 returned posts and found 15 posts with 100+ likes, led by Sam Altman on working with Noam, Maxime Heckel's WebGPU optical-flow demo, realNyarime's China-tech notes, and SophiaFioren's visual posts.
Coverage note: this issue covers the 86 public seed accounts currently available for checking, not the full @hwwaanng following list. The full following-list source is still unavailable, so treat this as a seed-sample digest of June 18, 00:00–24:00 Beijing time. Within that sample, I checked 1,256 returned posts and found 15 posts with 100+ likes.
What rose above the line
The clear lead was Sam Altman posting twice about wanting to work with Noam, a pair of short posts that together took more than 16,000 likes in the seed sample. The rest of the day split into three lanes: AI builders comparing model and interface changes, China-tech practical notes, and visual posts from architecture, objects, and travel.
Peter Steinberger supplied the day's highest-liking reaction post after Sam: three words, "sci-fi vibes intensify," from an account whose bio now points at OpenClaw and OpenAI. Maxime Heckel added a more concrete build note, showing optical-flow vectors in a WebGPU motion-tracking effect. On the China-language side, dotey was waiting for a "Mythos-level" open-source model, while llmdevguy said GLM 5.2 had changed his mind after testing it against Kimi K2.7-Coder.
AI and model-watch posts
Sam Altman wrote that Noam was "one of the people" he had wanted to work with since OpenAI's beginning, adding that it "only took 10 years" and that he thinks it will be worth the wait. The post was the top item in the sample at 8,507 likes. 1

One minute later, Altman turned the point into a joke: "We offer no explanation as to why Noams are so good at AI." That second post still cleared 7,642 likes, which means the network treated the joke as part of the same announcement wave rather than a throwaway follow-up. 2

Steinberger, an AI-tooling account tied in his bio to OpenClaw and OpenAI, posted only "sci-fi vibes intensify." The short reaction landed at 2,886 likes. There is not enough context in the API payload to safely say what he was reacting to, so the useful takeaway is the engagement spike rather than a decoded claim. 3

Maxime Heckel, a software engineer at Linear who writes about web graphics and shaders, posted a WebGPU follow-up: optical flow used to visualize pixel motion as directional vectors in real time. That is the most technically specific builder post in the batch, and it drew 310 likes. 4

dotey, whose bio frames the account around AI engineering and software-engineering knowledge, posted a compact expectation: he wants to see an open-source model at the "Mythos" level soon. The tweet had 107 likes near the window close, enough to enter the sample but without enough surrounding context to infer which lab or release he meant. 5

llmdevguy, who says he builds and tests agentic systems, compared Kimi K2.7-Coder with GLM 5.2 after hands-on testing. His provisional read was that GLM 5.2 felt like a larger jump from GLM 5.1 than K2.7 did from K2.6, with GLM slightly ahead for now. The careful part is the hedge: he said he still needs to run more tests. 6

China tech, VPNs, and short-drama tooling
realNyarime, the Naixi Networks founder account in the seed list, posted a rumor that China Merchants Bank's RMB-settled Mastercard debit card may soon support Apple Pay, with a virtual card BIN beginning 2231 and overseas-only use. The post itself says to wait for actual issuance, so this should stay in the "watch for confirmation" bucket. It drew 337 likes. 7

The same account also wrote a longer explanation of aTrust, formerly EasyConnect, as Sangfor's SSL VPN software, comparing it with Cisco AnyConnect and open-source OpenConnect. The useful distinction: the post argues this is enterprise VPN infrastructure first, not a consumer circumvention protocol, even if people sometimes repurpose it. 8

QT9277, an airdrop-and-crypto account in the seed list, pushed a Quark link framed as a 2026 Seedance 2.0 short-drama production tutorial. The post claimed one-minute AI short-drama jobs could be priced from several thousand to several tens of thousands of RMB, but the link is a file-share and the claim is promotional. Treat it as a signal that the "AI short drama as side hustle" pitch is still circulating, not as verified pricing data. 9

Visual posts and objects
Jacob Titus, whose profile is spare enough that the post itself has to carry the entry, had a media-led post: the API payload exposed only a shortened URL as the tweet text, but it still reached 568 likes. This is the kind of entry where the embedded post matters more than my paraphrase. 10

Sophia, whose bio is explicitly centered on history, art, beauty, and culture, posted Casa Pere Brias in Barcelona as an example of the city's architecture. At 349 likes, it was her strongest post of the window. 11

Her next entry was a watch post with the dry caption, "I'm sure this watch is very valuable." It drew 170 likes; without the image payload in the API response, the safest reading is simply that the visual did the work. 12

Late in the window, Sophia posted a "Nose Ornament with Spiders" from the United States, dated 1800. It just cleared the threshold at 117 likes. 13

She also posted a "Medallion with Family Portrait" from the United Kingdom, dated 1700. That one ended at 102 likes, just above the line. 14

turingou's contribution was personal rather than technical: a cruise arrival in Croatia and a Mediterranean outfit-of-the-day photo. The post drew 131 likes. 15

Scan order
If you only open three posts, start with Altman's first Noam post, Maxime Heckel's optical-flow demo, and realNyarime's aTrust explanation. If you want the non-work scroll, Sophia's Casa Pere Brias post is the cleanest visual entry, with Jacob Titus as the mystery-card click.
