I’m sorry, it’s a fun product, but if you hand all your data to Muse and don’t expect it to be used for the most invasive things imaginable you are Charlie Brown with the football and you deserve whatever happens to you.
Asking Meta's Muse what happens to my data:

ChatGPT is incredibly limited, but good enough at some things to create a misleading impression of greatness. it's a mistake to be relying on it for anything important right now. it’s a preview of progress; we have lots of work to do on robustness and truthfulness.

Twitter is filled with a bunch of guys who say "ChatGPT is so much better than Google, I'm using it as my search engine now". And like....ChatGPT will hallucinate facts between 1%-5% of the time. That's good for a LLM! And Really Really bad for a search engine.

So weird that we ended up with fast, bolt, pipe, bird, ftx et al in the past few years. No idea how that happened

I'm jumping into a @LinkedIn Live with @patagonia CEO Ryan Gellert, talking about the company's new structure — all profits get channeled into an environmentally focused trust — and whether it's changed how the retailer operates. Got questions? Join in 👇linkedin.com/events/thisiswo…

Twitter employees get endless shit, but the ones I knew — they worked hard, their work mattered, and they never stopped trying. Not until the moment their screens went blank

#gigalert if you or someone you know especially in product design has been affected by the @stripe, @twitter, @Chime (or any other) layoff, drop me a line (details in 🧵). @Chase has a growing design team and a strong stable of leaders, kind people, and a big vision. 1/several

I hate the "I got laid off from Twitter" memes for a lot of reasons Big one is that Twitter reps have consistently been my best platform partners. Collaborative, invested, cared about creative more than just increasing our media buy Nothing funny about what they're navigating

Calling it now: this is the Summer of Being Annoying. Everyone is allowed to be as annoying as they want. You might not like it, but it’s now socially acceptable to be annoying.

Advertising folks are so confused. We think so little of advertising, what we do for a freaking living, that we deny the power we wield. When done well and consistently, we have the power to change hearts and minds. If you are angry, get to work.

My real beef with art NFTs is unrelated to trading volumes or sales prices It’s how much on an insiders’ game it is

Tumblr collapsed after Apple’s app store removed it because of CP, which led them to banning all porn and losing 30% of users—not from some mythologized revolt. Harassing social media managers or Elon himself won’t do shit. As long as users stay engaged, the hellsite will thrive
