You know what AI can't do for you? It can't love something so much that you want to build it, talk about it, explore it, and bring it to the world. Passion is what makes creators popular. Don't worry about AI. Figure out what your thing is, and go do it 110%.

Honestly I hoped deepfakes and misinformation would have more impact. But I was too optimistic. You have to actually care about the truth before misinformation can do maximum harm. At this point people just pick a narrative vibe and go with it.

He nails it.

This deportation ASMR thing is sickening. Dear Republican friends who support this: I have two questions. 1. What would Ronald Reagan say? 2. What would Jesus say? They would be appalled, and you should be too. Think about your moral North Stars. Do not lose yourself.

Not enough people care. I cannot tell you how many people I know who are content to stick their heads in the sand and “not follow politics” because nothing has affected them. And I cannot tell you how many are happy that people they don’t like are suffering.

With everything happening right now I thought I’d write a few things about my politics, how I decide who I support and don’t support, and related topics. danielmiessler.com/blog/my-poli...

Not enough people are thinking about what's going to happen to open source AI when the first terrorist incident happens that gets blamed on an open model. What does the AI world look like when the government now determines: - What's legal - What's safe - What's approved ???

I think any good definition of AGI needs to have two things: 1. It has to be obvious when it's been acheived 2. It has to be obvious why we should care Most definitions being thrown around to day don't have these, while the definition I've been using since 2023 does:

What will your Daemon say about you?

I think the investment energy over the next few years will start to migrate from who can MAKE good AI, to who can USE good AI. So less like OpenAI/Anthropic, and more like Google/Microsoft. Makers will still thrive, but their % of AI Value will decrease over time.

A reminder for people who use Fabric and want to mess with the new o3-mini model. You can use o1 and o3 models with fabric by using: //example fabric -rp pattern_name -m o3-mini Their thinking models don't support temperature or streaming. github.com/danielmiessl...

The total TAM for AI is a combination of 2 main components: 1. The total cost of human workforces 2. The amount of money that current and future companies will pay to start, 10x, or 1000x their business We're talking hundreds of trillions of dollars. Don't get distracted.

I had a great chat with Faisal Khan from Vanta about how their platform is transforming trust management—automating compliance, streamlining vendor risk, and tackling frameworks like SOC 2 & ISO 27001. Worth a listen if you're in the space! 🎙️ Listen now youtu.be/9GMZrjRwpY0

🚨Clarification for everyone freaking out about Deepseek capturing traffic / data from the internet. 1. Deepseek released a LOCAL model 2. They also have a Deepseek SERVICE 3. The traffic/data capture is for the SERVICE There's no evidence of issues with the local model.

Can't sleep. Will miss something

From last year, but holding up well, here are my four dimensions of AI progress. 1. Model 2. Post-training 3. Internal Tooling 4. Agent Integration … danielmiessler.com/blog/ai-mode...

One of the biggest impacts of AI that goes kind of unnoticed is that we’re about to see an explosion of poorly built applications. Specifically, applications built completely by AI with no thought of security whatsoever. 🧵
