Reposted by HamedColin @colin-fraser.net · 30/06/2026Maybe this is naive but I feel like targeting social media with regulation is going to be kind of challenging because it’s not actually obvious what exactly should count in the category of “social media” and people are making new websites all the time 5173

Hamed @hamedbh.bsky.social · 31/03/2026I agree, people way overestimate the Big Brother stuff and/or get the causal arrow backwards. Whereas they underestimate the power of something like “Share your Contacts with this app?” 010
Hamed @hamedbh.bsky.social · 31/03/2026This is spot on. I think people believe this because it’s actually less scary and/or more believable than the alternative: the apps don’t need to listen to you through your phone to target ads. 2190

Hamed @hamedbh.bsky.social · 19/02/2026It also becomes a problem of car companies start to cut costs in those remote monitoring centres: plenty of evidence that such a thing could happen! 100
Hamed @hamedbh.bsky.social · 19/02/2026Yeah I assume so too. But if people have something that’s billed as “full self-driving” then they’re probably going to be less responsive to those circumstances. I’d like for the roads to be safer, I just am sceptical about whether software plus remote monitoring centre is an improvement overall. 110
Hamed @hamedbh.bsky.social · 19/02/2026Can’t speak for everyone, but to me the issue isn’t with people being involved. It’s firstly that their involvement is tucked away and obscured, so the presentation of the tech isn’t honest. Secondly it transfers human oversight from person in the car to person in an office far away. 110

Reposted by HamedEd Zitron @edzitron.com · 02/02/2026I think the simple truth about the AI bubble is that, in the case of OpenAI Anthropic, both say they “train” models and spend billions on “training“ that will somehow have an endpoint, when in reality, training models is a never-ending opex. On an economic level, inference and training are the same. 743446

When you see a big wave: the harm of being too optimistic is less than being too pessimistic. 2115112
