This open letter — ironically but unsurprisingly — further fuels AI hype and makes it harder to tackle real, already occurring AI harms. I suspect that it will benefit the companies that it is supposed to regulate, and not society. Let’s break it down. 🧵futureoflife.org/open-letter…

Do you have an idea of how to accelerate scientific progress on socially important problems? If so — and if seed funding for a research project would help — please apply to a new re-granting program @PaulFNiehaus, @calebwatney, and I are co-leading.

My biggest take away from this is how boring, predictable and damm near identical most mobile and web design has become.
RIP website designers. This new tool is ChatGPT for UI design. What's even more amazing: it's all editable in Figma. 👇

This! 100% this! I have been watching all the coverage of chat gpt and bing etc and feeling this but struggled to put it on to words. These models are what we have said they are because we have trained them on what we have said about them. theverge.com/23604075/ai-cha…

The Glasgow protest has gotten so big it's taken up the entire width of Buchanan Street.

Look. I've said it before and I'll say it again. If Harry has a problem with his family then he needs to persuade the French to fund him, raise an army, invade and seize the crown. What else was Brexit for, if not to restore traditional British approaches and values?

I feel like in 10 years time the trivia question: "Which UK Prime Minister was in office when Queen Elizabeth II died?" is going to be a real head scratcher.
