There's a lot of amazing candidates running for office right now that earned their first dollar on Crowdpac years ago, and that makes me pretty proud
We're going to need to get every human into, like, a big stadium and agree on a secret phrase only we know

once this gets cheap, this is the real AI cybersecurity disaster waiting to happen. we can fix bugs but there's no systematic way to prevent scams
This news straight up sucks. One of the all-time gems in the east bay! kron4.com/news/food-business…
"Brand" is the fact that the facebook glasses *hardware* looks amazing, but I would never personally use them in 1,000 years
You ever throw something totally, absolutely, unreasonably ambitious at the models and get kind of scared when you can see it just might do it
You ever get in the zone, then come out of it and think why the HECK am I sitting in this chair so weirdly

woah. Court just unsealed Summary Judgment motions in New York Times v OpenAI / Microsoft.
Easy to see why the AI companies had so many redactions (pink). Their own people wrote the lede for NYT, the "largest theft of labor in human history"... "more and more substitutive..." /1
Much ethical

Blood boiling. Not a good look for OpenAI or Greg Brockman here:
"ah nice" in response to "a hack to get around nytimes paywall" in his efforts "to scrape" The Times website. After many points on his bragging about OpenAI's substitution for news. /4
In a weird way, it almost feels like critical parts of society need to go more analog or offline in order to safely let AI do it's thing
My daughter is *obsessed* with Thrones so much so that she's been reciting their little welcome jingle multiple times a day for months, and we built a scale model to play with at home. Anyways, big fan.
A lot of people use LLMs like they are scaling up a 480p video to a 4k display. Yes, it's certainly *larger* but you haven't added any new information or resolution. And it's painful to consume.
Lazy work used to mean too little output.
Now, with AI, it often means too much and more work for everyone else.
@tobi call it "slop grenades."
A "Slop Grenade" is when you let AI produce the work and pass it on without adding any value (including checking it).
Someone else has to wade through it, catch the mistakes, and clean up the mess.
You save time and look productive but someone else pays for it.
