The internet's builders faced engineers who couldn't agree and a technology moving too fast to wait. They shipped anyway, on "rough consensus and running code." uxdesign.cc/the-lie-we-keep-…

The lie we keep telling ourselves about regulating AI

The excuse for not regulating AI is that nobody can agree how. The people who built the internet would find that laughable.

95% of code was slop before AI, too. It was written by underpaid juniors because businesses wanted senior-level results on a junior-level budget.

one thing i learned during my time @AnthropicAI was to always question and reinvent the way you work. and when your tools don’t fit anymore, build your own tools. a lotta wisdom from a lotta good folks here ☁️

“It’s worth understanding the difference between what modern AI does, and what pure computation does. Modern AI is, first and foremost, a way of leveraging the existing corpus of human knowledge. Computation is—at its most powerful—an open-ended way to generate things that are fundamentally and irreducibly new.” writings.stephenwolfram.com/…

What’s the Future for Pure Math Research in the Age of AI?

Stephen Wolfram chimes in about the future of pure math and AI based on his unique perspective of language creator and scientific researcher.

ironically, the best way to learn how to use agents is watching how other humans use agents.
