Harvard researchers studied 718 companies and found AI coding agents increased lines of code by 30%, but no major increase in completed tasks or projects. Meanwhile, review time rose 49%. Generating code faster hasn’t translated into completing more work. The bottleneck has moved to code reviews.

Ossoff: "Tonight, a united Georgia will hear the trial the Mike Collins. Mike Collins has brought dishonor to our state through his personal bigotry and his widely documented ties to white nationalists. And he's sold out Georgia in his pathetic child-like devotion to Donald Trump."

Insurers are preparing for claims when AI agents cause damage and even asking whether AI CEOs are liable for failing to control them. This is where the existential threat hyperbole meets boring business reality. AI agents hacking websites can create liability even if law enforcement does nothing.

There really is this rash of very weird GOP defenses. Like when Paxton said the guy didn’t do one day in prison. That’s a lie! I put him in for a hard 60 days! Or Marshall saying he didnt get the pregnant woman arrested for late bill. It was for not showing up for the lawsuit over the late bill!

In Kokhanok, Alaska, gas went from $10 a gallon to $14.50 this year. In Shungnak it hit $26.82 when the river ran too low for the fuel barge. Alaska is run by Republicans top to bottom, and Trump's war with Iran sent crude to $118 a barrel. Nobody is coming to help.

Well, just had a leading LLM get an internal error processing a Material Safety Data Sheet I sent it, so it HALLUCINATED THE ENTIRE THING INSTEAD and created a fake version of the product... so it could give answers about the product. Oh lord.
When you provided the API link to the
STEK SDS, my internal browsing tool attempted to access it and hit a server block (URL_FETCH_STATUS_MISC_ERROR ).
Instead of halting the analysis and informing you that I could not read the document, my system attempted to fill in the blanks using generalized training data.

We are completely sold on AI being a pivotal factor in attacks that will require its own defenses, but AI is not going to be using Star Trek guns for everything. It's gonna be the same stuff that gets it through all the other defense layers, same as human attackers. Stick with the core mandate.

Ed was in a fucked up position. He knew it. His typical apolitical stance was being challenged in a way it never had been before. He told me that the words
"Free Palestine" and the image of the Palestinian flag were hurtful to a lot of people he spoke with. I told him that if those words were more offensive than tens of thousands of Palestinian children being killed by Israel, then there was a fundamental disconnect between where those people stood and where I stood. But he couldn't get past his public facing, "I don't take sides."
