We’re now at a point where the Donald is happy if Iran removes the mines it may have placed in the Strait of Hormuz. Everything is going according to plan.

Fun fact: If you take one CENT out of AGENTIC you get AGI.

“How to tell your designer to make the logo bigger for the 4th time without hurting their feelings.”

Plus it's fun. Working with a human illustrator is so fun once you know how it works.

I think we need to do a little guide for how to work with a freelance human because a lot of people just don't know how, and a lot of the benefit of LLMs is avoiding the fear and discomfort, more than the $$.

Unacceptable!

At some point someone will have to sit down with wars, in general, and have a serious talk about their behavior.

Yeah, that’s pretty much what I am talking about. Ideally it will work as a pretty spectacular self-selection mechanism, when all is said and done. 🤞

Sound like my ex-boss. Who was also big on saying “Own your mistakes.”

(Dude “lost confidence” in working with me when telling me to own my mistakes in a call and I went through all the issues and Slack messages, with a shared screen, to look for his non-existing instructions on what to do.)

I’m kinda crossing my fingers on them blowing their own legs off with it, myself. 🤞

The only really positive thing for me is how it unmask so many people for what they are.

And the icing on the cake is how most of them are “proving” how awesome AI is by making trivial shit that no one would and will never pay them for. Literally hyping themselves out of future work possibilities.

It’s a bazooka for people who are insecure about their incompetences.

That's why a lot of the impact is to extensively tarpit people who do the work and know how to do the work. Which is extremely counterproductive and rapidly burns those people out.

e.g. In the past 24 hours have watched how this is evicting the most valuable contributors from open source projects.

Can companies be trusted enough to still deliver quality and due dilligence when pressured to be ever more efficient?

For a general idea, one might ask the FAA if they trust Boeing.

The problem: This means regulatory bodies can be spammed by submissions that they don’t have the capacity to review, and that all _look_ competent. But it would be up to the companies, all under different market/investor pressures, to make sure the generated documentation is truthful.

In practice, this could mean hundreds of requirements, system specifications and even verification/validation test specifications that ”people who know what they’re doing” would review and sign, all generated within hours. Very efficient!

I worked on tools for regulated industries that pivoted hard to AI. Medical Devices were the first vertical.

The pitch _absolutely_ was to “ease the regulatory and documentation burden“, implying AI will generate any “missing configuration items” and offer them for quick review & signing-off.

Former Austrian Foreign Minister Karin Kneissl, you know, the one who invited Putin to her wedding has received some 244 000€ by Russia for "analysing" global politics. She was nominated by the far-right Freedom Party, currently polling at around 36%. Guess we'll see more of that soon.

One of the nice side effects of being a Slovenian is that at least the odds of our military doing any damage with our signature balloon squadrons dropping water balloons are quite low.

Not zero, but still, schools and hospitals are probably safe.

(Unless someone angers us, then all bets are off!)
