I've been thinking for a while that a grim effect of the proliferation of AI across *everything* is that human work will become artisanal. Good for the humans that will do the work, still an unfortunate turn for our world though.
Wow I’m not surprised at all to see this “talk to a human” becoming a value prop.
Ironically, big reason I fly Delta is because, unlike United, they still offer actual in-person support at airports. United removed all of their support desks.

Last year, I predicted we’d see during the next 2 years promotions for AI-free experiences.
I just saw my first one.
United is now advertising their customer service app is a human, not an AI.
People don’t want to be handled by machines. Nobody likes being on the receiving end of AI.

I built an e-commerce site in like 2015 that had a streaming video player that featured product callout overlays, and a CMS for uploading those videos and tagging those products. That was about a year into my career and I learned so damned much so quickly. It was built in angular. Angular.

Do yall do slot controls in your design system Storybooks? I provide them, but you still have to provide the `slot` attribute on any markup you put in the control, which kinda just feels pointless, beyond showing that the slot exists.

As convinced as anyone can be that there is some good in consumer-facing AI, I don't think many people would agree that we are better off as individuals or as a world thanks to the kind of big tech companies that are now pushing AI. I feel like we need to just remember that and reject this crap.

Reading this "Letter to Arc Members", and this line—
"If we were serious about our original mission, we needed a technological unlock to build something truly new."
—is the single biggest fallacy in the entire thing.

Americans speak whatever frickin language we want. And we also speak a bunch of different languages so we can frivkin talk in secret. We also all look different so you’ll never know who’s American and we don’t care if you know, and we can cook, like, a bunch of good foods.
