I'd love to go to Develop and see all the people, but being around lots of people I don't know, hoping to find people I do know, is terrifying. A thousand people watching me on stage, not a problem. Alone in a bar? Pure terror. Like finding a thousand spiders in your sock. Wish it weren't true.

PROMETHEUS: BEHOLD! I bring you the fire of the very Gods themselves! Raw power, the definition of an epoch! Raise yourselves up, become, evolve, challenge for what is rightfully yours! HUMANS: Or we could do some SaaS rationalisation and fire some people and ooh make some powerpoint decks maybe?

Being polite to an LLM is like being polite to a waiter. No one knows if waiters are sentient or not, but it’s better to be safe than sorry

I spoke to Tony Coles and it turns out he recorded it all and made it into a podcast. These days, you can't trust anyone, these days.
