Of course anybody who has done anything ever at any level of competency learns quickly that work is the entire point. The experience is key. Failure is learning. Effort is execution. AI shortcuts all of that. It's for people who care nothing for journey and everything for destination. It's empty.

You can just ask me.
I can chug a bottle of water and lie to you.

The issue has been "fixed", by which they mean, they've found a way to *prevent the leak*.
LLMs may have their practical uses, but using one to *interface with the world* is extremely unwise, and will lead to your own manipulation.
Information is power.

Is their innovation “but no poor people!!!”?

This is so sad. They’re all so sad. They need therapy and some friends. Also, just complete self-centered assholes.

It's like how my kids both (at different points) tried to use their wet toothbrush as evidence that they'd brushed their teeth.
A wet toothbrush does not prevent cavities just like a generated PRD does not produce thoughtful product strategy.

The LLM sleight of hand operates in the gap between management inputs and work outputs, making it possible (and likely) for managers to see low value *artifacts as proof of work*, and see *work as waste*.

If they train it on previous traffic engineering decisions it’s just going to suggest building more freeways through poor neighborhoods.

Back in 2003 we spoke of DHS as a fascistic name and here we are 22 years later. tada!

I just looked at Effect for the first time and it appears to come with a large amount of cognitive overhead. Rolling that into a codebase would be a non-trivial maintenance risk 😬

Folks around me are more and more interested in zod. Anything you can point me at about the downsides?

"Bipartisan" should be come a negative term, only used to inform voters that a bill has likely been tainted by republicans

None of it makes any sense to me right now. I pulled my high risk EFTs right after the inauguration, which was good, but I don't know what to do about anything else so I'm just watching everything burn. This fucking sucks.

We haven't shopped there since they did that, though we've been to Costco multiple times.

It was sold out so I had to crawl under the slightly-open roll-up door.

Reminds me of Calgary, and how they added it back after removing it didn't go so great.

Why does Altman say they’re trying to cure cancer? They’re defunding curing cancer! They’re not inventing anything but lie machines and money laundering currency for criminals. Why would anyone NOT hate them?

he skips over the part about how he has become a billionaire and we don't yet have any cancer cures, or whatever. He has not done the great thing that he's giving himself credit for.

You can tell it's bullshit because "curing cancer" doesn't require him to steal massive amounts of copyrighted material and build a machine that apes the stuff it stole--but "or whatever" certainly seems to.

"Let's not take the soul-sucking path of sacrificing the most persecuted for that which we deem to be most popular. I know that there are transgender children right now looking out at this world and wondering if anyone is going to stand up for them and for their simple right to exist. Well, I am."

Have you considered appealing to Chris Rufo for help? Maybe if you do some more anti-left moral panic interviews you can get some crumbs?
