What's more audacious than a PR firm pitching a fiction book author as a guest on the pod? The author reaching out themselves. These folks either need more AI or just no Ai so that they can let people be. There is no middle ground here.
Ai slop has found its way to keynote speeches, YouTube videos. It’s happening now. Witnessing one now. Part of me wants to stab my ears

I’m 14 and I build open-source AI tools.
Now I’m looking for my first development sponsor.
I’m looking for a company willing to cover my Claude Max subscription ($100–200/month) so I can keep building, researching and shipping.
In return, I’ll recognize you as a sponsor across my GitHub and open-source projects.
So I’m shooting my shot:
@neondatabase @datadoghq @Railway @supabase @vercel @Cloudflare @cursor_ai @huggingface @Replit @getsentry @render @flydotio @planetscale @upstash @convex_dev @modal_labs @togethercompute @GroqInc @github @linear
If your company wants to sponsor a young open-source developer, reply below.
Let’s build some cool stuff.
Some of the analogies used here by Anand are spot on. I remember @dilipti covered this from the other angle - controlling the power of the llm, and guiding it, is much like using gasoline. Burn it and it explodes. Put it into a carefully crafted engine and it carries us from point a to b.

Guys it’s a misconception that Jev can’t hallucinate
It’s a non-generative LM ie it models probabilities of things given language as context
The guarantee is the type-safety, and that answers are deterministic - ie no stochastic sampling. The deterministic answers can still be confidently wrong!
It can still hallucinate if the training data on the topic was under cooked

Hiring a social media manager and content producer for my team at @BlumeVentures. This is a start-of-career role, and the upper limit is 3-4 years of work ex.

Any D2C brand (preferably in sneakers, fashion or Jewellery) looking for graphic design interns? Someone I know (an NIFT grad) is looking for a 6months internship starting December.
DMs open. RT for Karma. Pretty please.

Fantastic video. Must see. (It's in Marathi).
P. S. : Absolutely not against any festival celebrations. Just against the speaker walls.

If you are running the Ladakh Marathon @goathlos will be hosting a pop-up at Metta cafe in Leh Market. We'd also be hosting a shakeout run on 8th and 12 September. I'll be there, come say hi :)
As Oliver threatened to go exclusively with Decathlon we have managed to get our new coach jackets ready in time. If you are in Leh for Ladakh marathon, I will be there at @goathlos popup next week at Metta cafe from 8 to 11 September. Come say hi and check our collection.
