I get there are things we can't claw back at this point, but I hope we use the same claws to protect human creativity

As a fan of Conway's Law, I can't wait for the louder Conway's Law moments in AI (I see plenty but y'know this shit takes time) Tech bros that aren't great at humans are building tools that are supposed to be great for humans. And now they're trying to coordinate. Kayyyyyyyyy 🍿

"Nvidia Corp. introduced a new double-layered artificial intelligence security system that it says would've prevented the recent high-profile breach of Hugging Face by OpenAI's AI models." So you're saying that clearer specs and plans can prevent issues?! YA DON'T SAY.

The risks in using AI without paying attention to what's going on under the hood are plainly foreseeable. But it feels like one of those dangers where every single person is going to have to learn it for themselves by getting burned.

I've been in such time warps yesterday. Took my kiddo to a mall I haven't been to in yeeears and the huge place was playing MMMBop overhead. Disorienting. And now I just saw Madonna take an award from Baby Spice on stage (morbidly curious about MTV awards) so like...WHAT YEAR IS IT?!

what the fuck is going on in Sam Altman’s head
4 panel comic

Panel 1:
Weird AI Ghoul Sam Altman is being interviewed by a Purple Guy. They are both sitting on green chairs. Sam Altman says “We see a future where intelligence is a utility, like electricity or water”

Panel 2: 
Purple Guy says “Sorry, can I just-“ and he reaches over and cups Sam’s chin. There is a clicking sound.

Panel 3: 
The entire front of Sam’s face flips up like the bonnet of a car. Purple Guy leans in for a closer look.

Panel 4:
We see the inside of Sam’s head. In the background Purple Guy peeks in. There is an empty white room. In the foreground we see a little mutant version of Mr Burns with HAL from 2001: A Space Odyssey sticking out of his head. It’s weird, trust me.

I *think* I'd be more excited about AI tools if I didn't know they'd be eaten up by people that absolutely do not want to interact with humans. And a lot of those people are in tech, still trying to make powerful stuff for humans. We never cracked that nut but here we are, handing it to AI.

Okay okay products like this excite me a bit. Not in a "be a Luddite way" but just in damn control of our brains while navigating ever-changing tech kinda way. This and the "back to the wild" themes from a couple years back make me think we could reclaim our attention in time. getbrick.com

Still debating how/if the timing of babies in my life during the acceleration of AI is helping or negatively overwhelming my brain, but I can say that swapping "touch grass" for a giggly, smiley baby is a major upgrade. And of course the increasingly-clever 3yo antics. Life's gonna life.

A lot of people are not well right now: physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. This is an excellent time to de-escalate conflicts and to lean into patience. This is true in our personal lives and also (maybe especially) online when it's overwhelmingly strangers crashing into each other.
