A thought.
We hold “I love you” up as the ultimate phrase of affirmation.
But I often find something more specific is more powerful.
“I trust you”
“I feel safe with you”
“You make me laugh”
“You are a kind person”
“I enjoy hanging out with you”
Love is utterly necessary – as is communicating it. But the concept is vague.
Sometimes simple, specific words are better.
Is anyone talking about the fact that privatising knowledge and skills in a paywalled AI system, AND having that system drive up the prices of tech, could increase inequality? I’ve been thinking about this. Is this a problem?
I've been thinking about how I tend to prefer simple video games. I don't really care for massively multi-player games, or games with ultra-realistic graphics. It just doesn't bother me.
Seeing this "low-poly" racing game on Itch confirms this, especially after I tried the ridiculous “Gear.Club" on Apple Arcade this morning.
Traks looks like an absolute blast of an arcade driving game.
Shame I only have MacOS as a viable platform.
Oh no. The school found AI image generation for newsletters. 🤦♂️
What’s that you say? Ben Folds is playing Bristol in November?
BOOK THE BABYSITTER NOW!!!!!
I just boosted it, but this is a very good essay on LLM coding and one that I kinda align with.
I would add in some hesitations about the maturity of the LLM tools, the potential rug-pull/bubble-collapse and the fact that having a real human TA is more valuable. (As well as All-The-Issues).
But this is a good take.
