I'm not convinced there IS a "right way" to do ads in AI.

I think most people see ads as a necessary evil. But we don't need ANY evil in our AIs. And we certainly don't need to erode trust any more than we have already.

Liberals and Leftists generally seemed to tend towards not liking AI.

But it feels like since the Trump admin has gotten behind crypto and AI, the AI hate has become palpable.

I can't help but be reminded of Right Wingers who became anti-vaxers because they perceived Democrats as being pro-vax.

I know this isn't what it's meant for, but I found taking a long video that I didn't want to watch, and getting this thing to create a blog post out of it, provided an useful way of summarizing video content.

Does someone need to make a wallet for Agents?

Agents having access to one's funds is a risky proposition in reality, nevermind perception.

An MCP wallet that prompts the human to verify all transactions, and which only has the funds that the human has deposited, might be a good product.

In my quest to imagine what the future of education will be like, I came across Dani Nova on YouTube. He's both a deep thinker and only has 100+ followers.

Check him out.

Nate's article on Parenting and AI is great.

As someone who has spent some time on this topic; I find his way of explaining things very easy to relate to and I'm definitely going to borrow from him when I conduct my next Parenting & AI workshop.
