I think this is the thing everyone needs to understand. I'm not really a fan of AI and I don't use it in my workflows, but it's not going away. What normalised AI use will look like is unclear, but it's going to be everywhere in some form, with all the upsides and downsides that brings.
Pandora's box is open. We're not going back to a pre-AI world, even if some of the big AI companies collapse. There are tons of great open source AI models now.

So I hope over time more of you join me in using these tools against the powerful rather than fruitlessly hoping they will vanish.

AI cannot stop checking out Tim Allen's awesome rack.
I specifically tried to program it to not constantly detect Tim Allen's Big (Super)Naturals and LOOK WHAT IT DOES ANYWAY

It's impossible to remark on the weather on the internet, because someone very cool will always come along to say "you think that's cold? Try living here! We had 6 feet of snow in the last five minutes! I'm posting this from inside a snow drift! That's normal here!"

"It's like, you're, it's like, it's next level."
"And it's just getting better."
"It's nuts. It's unhinged."
"And the thing about it that's nuts is it keeps getting stronger."
"It's pretty unhinged."
"No, it's nuts."
"Yes. No, it's, it's, yeah."

Gripping stuff.
Everything about this might be the saddest thing I’ve ever seen

I’m not saying this is what I want to happen, but it does rather make the case that in order to improve British healthcare, we need British politicians to get all the major diseases.

Smart features has been there for years. That's why everyone is scratching their heads when they follow this advice and the filter tabs disappear.

Another "disable this setting immediately!" AI warning that breaks features for users without any evidence as to why this needs doing. No link, nothing.
If you use GMail, AI (Gemini) was turned on yesterday by default and now scans all of your content for machine learning. To turn off, go to Settings>General and scroll down. Uncheck the box for "Smart features."

There's other "Smart" add-ons as well, but that's the one that reads your content.

Not sure about the strategy of #Unity pushing their keynote to be live and available to all, and then burying all the info devs are really looking for in a roadmap talk that will be posted "at some point". #gamedev
