The most common problem that AI solves is "summarize my week [using siloed data from all the corporations that own my work]". What might you say is the actual underlying problem for people and companies here?

anyone who said silksong is not as hard as nine sols. what? how? the runbacks alone make silksong 10x harder. not to mention the intentionally designed traps, these devs seriously hate their fans 😂

I left Spotify after 9 years because of the CEO's autonomous weapons investment shit, but it's not really about Spotify individually at all. It's about trying to be better, and intentional, and asking yourself if you're making the world you want

What Tressie says below is essentially the point of my @insidehighered.com column today. We know what students need (and want) and it has nothing to do with the pivot to AI. In fact, it's more like the opposite. www.insidehighered.com/opinion/colu...

Hey! Not sure where to ask, but ran into a volunteer firefighter at MWN who was interested using Notion to run their team operations. Wondering the best place to route to!

Halfway done with "octodoodles" - a daily musical sketch for one month. Favs so far: "cloud shape", "cozy socks", "bee", "cozy sweater".

I'm gonna try to articulate something I've been thinking about for a while, regarding *why* disillusionment, distrust, & dissatisfaction with democracy are rising.

Almost everything I read takes this phenomenon as an exogenous shock, assuming no one chose to make it so. I suspect that's incomplete.

Feels like a proxied religious war. Silicon Valley gestating their own egregore with AI fundamentalism, which in turn helps "the right" and "the left" (meaningless terms at this point) workshop/worship their own hyperindivdualized gods; vessels for hopes and fears. Deitycraft—as old as the species.

They are becoming experts at living in their own reality. And I guess the endgame is if they can bear it long enough, they will actually emerge into the white christian utopia that they keep talking about. It's literally large scale group manifesting.

DMing @mariepoulin.com in ~2010 on twitter to compliment her on a website design had a pretty decent outcome.

Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.

Gone through a lot of shit working in web dev over the years, most of it due to my focus on publishing and reading and the genuinely shitty management that comes with those industries, but the current "AI" bubble is the first time I'm actively considering an exit strategy out of dev entirely.

I'm in firm agreement. I wonder how much we're ignoring job loss as a measure, not of being replaced, but of simply folks "not enjoying it" any more. Not even just AI—I'd seriously consider something that uses limited computing. At least away from silicon valley.
