Every time I give some "N ways ChatGPT has improved my life" type articles I always regret it. But I keep poking the sore tooth anyway.
Today was all about how to use ChatGPT Scheduled Tasks.
Literally for reminders.

Just saw a local reddit post asking about driving time for a long drive. The person had asked ChatGPT and Gemini and gotten wildly different answers and were confused as a result.

Went from a reddit post where someone was asking about local D&D, to there being a little discord for a few of us, to having a plan for me to DM an inperson one shot to see how we vibe in ~48hrs!

I have been doing entirely too much earnest posting about deep things recently, I need to do a proper thread about hippo testicles or something just to keep myself sane.

Little morning gardening to get the day going. The habanero plant continues to think it ought to be a tree. So many unripened ones still to come - I hope they can finish up before the frost sets in

It must have been around 1997. I vaguely remember picking up Portal, a 5th edition set and the PC game around the same time (all released '97). That was my hyperfixation for the next few years all set 😁
Never would have guessed I'd be back thinking about it nearly 30yrs later!

#AIIDE25 wrapped! Thanks to everyone who made this year’s @aiide.bsky.social such a success. We’ll be back soon with announcements for ’26’s location and call, plus the ‘25 recordings. But for now I’m going to turn off my brain for 48 hours.

If you're going to show up at an academic conference espousing techbro nonsense confrontationally and being disrespectful...
Don't?

It was a genuine honor to sit and listen to this
I was so so happy to give an invited talk today at EXAG, a workshop I co-founded over ten years ago! It was quite a personal talk about how research communities grow and change (and die sometimes), what generative AI means for our community today, and the value of weird, pointless research.
Starting off Day 2 of EXAG with Mike Cook's @mtrc.bsky.social amazingly titled keynote 'Being Weird at the End of the World'. Really looking forward to this talk!
