About

Accept All is a magazine, a radar and a diary about artificial intelligence and the craft of code — read from Tokyo, for people who build.

The name is the button. Code is written by agents now and reviewed by a human thumb that hovers over Accept all a hundred times a day; the whole question of this decade is what, exactly, you just accepted. So we read the diff. A magazine, because every week one model, one tool or one idea is worth reading about slowly. A radar, because we count what the labs, the Valley, GitHub and the chip makers are talking about — releases, agents, open weights, compute, funding, rules — and show it as it moves. A diary, because a seal is set each day in that day's colour, and the days add up.

We read the research labs' own posts, the American and European tech press, the Japanese and Chinese developer sites and the newsletters people actually forward, and bring it together in English and Japanese. Everything here links back to the people who wrote it; the images belong to their authors.

Accept All will keep changing. New sources, new signals, new ways of looking — a little better each week, never finished. If something here made you open a terminal, that is enough.

Thank you for reading. ありがとうございます。
