Even on Claude Max, I'm running out of tokens. I'm starting to see the value in self-hosting a small GPU farm and LLM. I'm consuming enough AI capacity now where it might be cost effective.

When we get to AGI, it won't be *just* an LLM. There's got to be a whole cognitive architecture around it. And it looks nothing like "ChatGPT".

#vibeCoding today, knocked out MCP servers for #Jellyfin and #shlink. Once I use them without issue for a little while I'll open source them.

🎵 Prince: neurodivergent genius who gave permission to explore identity when the world wasn't ready. From epilepsy to "Purple Rain" to gender fluidity—why his revolutionary art remains so relevant. #Prince #Neurodiversity

In other news, scientists make breakthrough discovery that the Sun beams solar power from space.

🧵 Democrats led by Rep. @aoc.bsky.social and Sen. @wyden.senate.gov are demanding answers from #Palantir about their #surveillance "mega-database" (exactly what my past investigations predicted). The same #AI targeting #Gaza civilians is now tracking American taxpayers. #Congress #Privacy #Iran

Working on an article about #Prince. Probably sharing too much about how his music gave me permission to be #queer during the height of 1980's HIV/AIDS-fueled homophobia. But hey, it's #PrideMonth, right? (Yes, I'm aware his personal conduct was often homophobic, and I cover that.)

Europeans: "this email is unmonitored over Summer. good luck" Americans:

I respect that the big AI companies like #Anthropic and #OpenAI are under enormous scaling pressures, but JFC it's annoying to pay for these services when almost daily I get errors from #Claude about "unexpected capacity constraints" [...] "Claude is unable to respond to your message."

I realize my account is torn between two identities... 1. hey look at my new article 2. I love you Claude. I hate you Claude.

Did… #adobe… somehow NOT ever hear there is already a #FirefliesAI app? I am really hoping for a David & Goliath smack down on this one.

I was in such a groove with Claude on an idea and... "You’re almost out of usage - your limits will reset at 6:00 AM"

OK this didn't age well at all; #n8n released their own #Perplexity tool for agentic AI flows this week. All of my pre-work was for nothing. Well, not NOTHING. I learned a lot from the experience. But I could have aimed my efforts elsewhere.

🎙️ Just published a new episode of Groktopus Newsletter: Oracle and Meta's AI Infrastructure Spending Spree Reveals Strategic Missteps. Have a listen:

#Oracle: $25B on AI infrastructure, negative $400M cash flow #Meta: $14.8B for #ScaleAI after losing 78% of research team 42% of companies abandon AI projects Infrastructure ≠ strategy #AI #Strategy

Gosh you head from the US to the EU and suddenly every website really cares about your privacy.

OK I created a special account for my #BrainFarts podcast, hosted by @transistor.fm It's really a show that's all over the place, giving a few minutes of time to an array of different interests. Whatever I'm learning about at the moment. I promise there won't be a regular cadence. 🧠💨
