iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

Will someone feel deceived if I don’t disclose I used AI? Will this make more work for myself and others in the future? Should someone take the time to read what you didn’t take the time to write?

I also mentioned how there is an assumption that this work is easy but that it actually takes a lot of work and skill to make it look effortless

Also an absurd number of crows

It’s a nice school. I grew up on the island but way further east so knew a bit about it

I also said that livestreaming will be an important medium for the next decade we should be paying attention to. Some streamers also desperately need PR strategists

Panel went great. Talked a lot about the human skills that AI can’t replace and the questions we should ask ourselves when given new tools

Today I’ll be on a panel on The Future of Work in communications for Hofstra’s @hofstrau.bsky.social Presidential Symposium

“In safety systems in any hazardous industry — nuclear, air travel, transit — we think in terms of controls and monitoring. We specify what a system is permitted to do, constrain its ability to depart from those permissions and monitor its operation for evidence that our controls are inadequate.”

“This changes the calculus on which AI systems should most worry us. It’s not those with the strongest scores according to model benchmarks. It’s the ones with the most uncontrolled autonomy, of which model capacity is one component and excessive agency is the other.”

The main purpose was for my memory. The added benefit is now we have a discussion point for our class on video games in a few weeks

I expect my followers to well document my descent into evil

Number go up is such a powerful force I am trying to use for good

Evidence gamification works even when you explicitly tell them what you’re doing

Worked absurdly well

A large handful of red admit one tickets lie in a pile on a desk

In order to keep track of participation in class, today I tried giving out a paper ticket to everyone who participates and they hand it back with their name on it. So many hands today!

i agree with the key point here and will add to it that there IS a reward, it’s knowing you did one right thing instead of walking around plagued by the nameless shame that afflicts all men who are determined to live the most frictionless lives possible

i worry that men think being A Good Guy is dramatically and heroically intervening on behalf of an endangered woman and then being publicly rewarded on a grand scale when actually being A Good Guy is just usually saying, “hey man that’s not funny” or “wow that’s fucked up” and there is no reward

Doing some research for a new paper idea and came across this Mae West tidbit. Truly the GOAT "Mae West has the most famous bedroom in the film colony. The ceiling is completely covered with mirrors which gives an unusual effect to the entire room"

A picture of Mae West writing a letter in bed in Screen Book 1937, with the caption "Mae West has the most famous bedroom in the film colony"

Screen Book 1937: "Mae West has the most famous bedroom in the film colony. The ceiling is completely covered with mirrors which gives an unusual effect to the entire room, decorated sumptuously in white. Mae’s entire day centers about her bed when she is not at the studio. Not only does she have her meals served in bed, but she does all of her writing there while reclining amid lace pillows in Westian opulence,"

Working on a cool book anthology that will answer the question, "Where is video games' Jeanne Dielman?"
