A lot of the AI culture wars seem to stem from:

1) calling everything under the sun "AI", lumping ChatGPT in with random forests

2) not making a distinction between AI the technology and the AI that's the companies stealing copyright and shoving chatbots where they don't belong

Is this platform still massively against AI or has it moved more towards acceptance?

You may have heard of "vibe coding" - when you give instructions to an LLM & let it do the heavy lifting. So how well does this work? Is it good enough for production? Here, Ankur discusses how AI-assisted coding works, why code reviews are still key, & more.

One of the greatest traits you can have and foster is a thirst for knowledge and a desire to learn something new
I am a chronic Googler. It does not matter what the topic is. If I do not understand what someone is talking about it, I’m going to look it up. Every time. Even if it’s none of my business, even if it’s not important. To know that I don’t know something is like an itch that must be scratched.

Yep, it’s first sign of incompatibility for me
People who lack curiosity confuse me. I don’t know what it’s like to not want to know everything about everything.

‘Tulip’ comes from the Turkish word ‘tülbent’ which means "turban."

The flower got its name from the resemblance of its overlapping petals to the folds of fabric in a turban.

I knew this was going to happen as soon as they didn’t pass the national law. But the original law was crap, and right now, some states are a doing better job regulating & putting in safeguards that protect people than the AI companies, which they should’ve done upon inception
AI industry lobbyists have gone from celebrating that the Trump administration won’t regulate AI to now begging for national AI regulation instead of having to deal with different laws on a state by state basis.

Be careful what you wish for because you just might get it as the saying goes.

The PAC is mobilizing as President Donald Trump's White House and congressional Republicans are working to suppress states' ability to implement AI laws.

The most revolutionary shit we could do as a country is actually come together as a country but that would require everybody who aint Black to examine their relationships to Anti Blackness which we know aint happening anytime soon.
"The only thing revealed by this transparency is that social media companies do not give a f*ck about this."

Our attention is the product

There are tutorials in many languages on how to exploit that for profit, not just to stir the pot

It is not possible to have too many books, or computers, or videogames.

Also those cables aren't obsolete because I have the devices they plug into, so there!
Twitter accounts are based in Russia. BlueSky accounts are based in homes with, frankly, too many books, plants, obsolete cables, and pieces of rustic pottery, that could do with a bit of a tidying up, to be honest.

Friend, colleague, family, don't matter. When the trust is broken, the relationship is broken which means we are broken. If all the kings horses and all the kings men couldn't do it, I surely cant put us back together again.
Question for the skyline…. Have you ever recovered a friendship after trust was broken?
