Computers are really expensive now. We know this. But maybe we’ll all learn that our 5-10 year old computers are actually… fine?

In the past, when people claimed to have created something, and it turned out later that they’d outsourced the work, we’d call it fraud. But you can outsource to a robot, still claim you created it, and that’s ok? Strange times

Apple finally invents the folding phone. "This changes everything. Nobody has ever been able to fold a phone before. I mean, obviously Samsung has, and Google has, and various Chinese manufacturers have, but nobody has done it properly. Those were gimmicks. This is *innovation*.”

If I’m keeping score correctly, so far the AI revolution has given me: - considerably worse software than before - considerably more expensive devices to run that software - considerably less opportunity to make the money needed to buy those devices

LLMs and performative productivity
It's worth asking whether LLMs are actually making us more productive at all—and if so, what we might be sacrificing in return.

More and more people I deeply respect and have learned a lot from over the years feel like they are speaking into a void, to the point where they are losing motivation to continue making content, which got me to write my first post on my site in over a year... www.kevinpowell.co/article/tell...

I can’t recall the source (irony), but I remember an article that discussed the idea of ‘sourceless’ facts i.e. you follow the rabbit hole down and find there is no factual evidence to support the fact itself, you just get this endless chain of sources with nothing at the end.

I was thinking about the web and coffee. Despite StarbuckNeroCostafication there are still great indy roasters and shops out there. There’ll always be a subset of people that prize craft and quality above all else. We should hold on to that during these slop driven times

I’ve been wondering if the success of AI summaries has been partly due to the fact that a lot of websites are just unpleasant to visit because of ads. I can imagine a lot of users thinking “great! I don’t have to scroll for 10 minutes and crash my phone to get that pie recipe”

Currently building an agent to fulfil the role of a "content editor". I have a difficult relationship with this stuff. We see agents being deployed by "TheGreedy" to replace real people. But in this context, I'm building for a non-profit that simply can't afford the people in the first place
