NEW — My first true foray into AI haterdom is about how those of us not convinced by AI’s inevitability are a real constituency worthy of a voice. Give it a read:

Hating AI is good, actually
LinkedIn may be awash with boosters, but shunning AI is the human choice.

This is off-topic, but years later, I met a guy who worked at Corel as a manager in their clipart design division He told me he used to convene meetings every morning where he’d point at people like “OK, Joe, today you’re making a tiger. Alan, you’re making a horse, Dave, I need a mailbox,” etc

Deadloch is the sweary dead pan humour you need
Deadloch has just released its second season on Prime in the UK. The first season, set in the eponymous town of Deadloch is the deadpan, straight faced, extremely sweary black comedy about two police detectives investigating a murder in Tasmania. Dulcie and Eddie are the detectives. Dulcie is a six foot tall gay woman married to the love of her life, Cath York.

I met a guy a few months ago who owns a small consultancy specializing in IT emergencies. When things go horribly wrong & nobody on staff can fix it, he’s who you call. In the past year, he essentially has a bidding war for his services every week. This👇is effectively what he does now.

"This is the ouroboros. The snake eating its own tail. AI writes the code. AI reviews the code. AI checks the deployment. When it breaks, the answer is more AI. The loop has no exit condition." There are so many powerful cautionary lessons — both technological + methodological — in here.

This quote from Apollo 14 astronaut Edgar Mitchell has been in my head the last few days
You develop an instant global consciousness, a people orientation, an intense dissatisfaction with the state of the world, and a compulsion to do something about it. From out there on the moon, international politics look so petty. You want to grab a politician by the scruff of the neck and drag him a quarter of a million miles out and say, ‘Look at that, you son of a bitch

it's pretty nuts to see anything from the surface of Pluto, considering it's between 4 and 7.5 BILLION miles from Earth and far far smaller. 1/5th(iirc) the size of Earth. Bonkers.

The older I get the more I think this is probably my favourite live-action interpretation of Batman. It totally nails the assignment, has a singular vision, and delivers on it. It's also incredibly faithful to the specific comics it was referencing. Brilliant all round. And it's aged gracefully!

This is devastating. I went to art college with Dave Taylor in 1989-90. Even then, he was leagues ahead of the rest of the class. He was a regular at Forbidden Planet, my old workplace, for years. One of the loveliest, coolest people ever, and a ridiculously talented artist. RIP, mate.

Watching a Waymo stuck in the middle of a block party, creating a surreal traffic jam because it can’t figure out how to briefly cross the yellow line to get past the crowd. Now the cops are here. They don’t understand the problem and are yelling at everyone but the car. The future is so stupid
