Most importantly, the Chinese names are homophonous with "Zohran Kwame" when pronounced in both Cantonese (the spoken language used by first-wave Chinese immigrants from the South) and Mandarin (the spoken language used by new-wave Chinese immigrants from the North).
What an absolute masterstroke.

“AI didn’t fail. The person who approved this did”
Yes, AI can never be at fault. It’s always the human that made the AI make a mistake. Just prompt better and then spend more time in QA! Duh!

Pay attention to the ATProto community in addition to Bluesky the platform. @leaflet.pub, @tangled.org, @stream.place, @germnetwork.com are doing some amazing stuff with the protocol, and the real vision is starting to come to life.

Altman has been quite clear about his strategy.
From the 2008 crash he learned that if you bind enough of the economy to your business you can do whatever you like; government will decide the rules no longer apply.
What he's selling is unaccountabilty.

I honestly don’t get the value of this company. They hoover up energy and water. Their product constantly gets things wrong and, in extreme cases, coaches people into suicide.
And it’s all built on what seems to be malicious and vast intellectual property theft.
What does OpenAI offer the world?

“authors & publishers who filed a lawsuit against the Sam Altman-led firm have secured access to internal Slack messages… discussing the mass deletion of a pirated books dataset… A NY district court ordered OpenAI to hand over the communications regarding data deletion”

when i wrote "destroy AI" i wasn't saying everything should be destroyed - i was saying the absence of destruction as an option creates a lopsided landscape to our imagination. people can just create and deploy systems, but we can't remove those systems? do you see how that is inescapably untenable?

no wonder why Flusser said that "A designer is a cunning plotter laying his traps" and Papanek said that "Today, industrial design has put murder on a mass-production basis"

Bad UX World Cup is a contest, to make the worst date picker, ever. I love it.

creative agencies are eager defenders of capitalism and global imperialism. take "isleofany", whose catalog of work includes:
- whitewashing NYT of its genocidal crimes
- encouraging overreliancy on a silly system built with labor exploitation and ecological destruction

If concentration camps designers during holocaust had a social media account, they would write shit like this. So many people think they're in the design industry, while in fact they're just visual porn eye candy addicts rotting in the Process Optimization industry.

Have written to my local TDs, Micheál Martin, Simon Harris about Ireland needing to support the Sumud Global Flotilla which has Irish citizens (and members of the Oireachtas on it!) as Israel attacks it in international waters, and to do more to sanction Israel. Feel free to adapt and send your own

A lot of designers only engage with politics as long as it's aesthetically pleasing like, folks please stop infantilizing yourself, you don't need to be fed reality in a wooden spoon...

Best glory I’ve ever seen from a plane! It’s an optical phenomenon that occurs when light interacts in and around tiny droplets of water in the clouds, in the direction opposite the sun.

Did you know your MacBook has a sensor that knows the exact angle of the screen hinge?
It’s not exposed as a public API, but I figured out a way to read it and make it sound like an old wooden door.
