You see @cabernet.bsky.social ? People are peaking up on the uncertainty.
Also note that I said that I agree to a certain extent about the addiction so I donโt disagree about the operant conditioning. I just think the post does not convey the message successfully, at least to me.
All this is up to interpretation.. But even if you are right, I still donโt like the metaphor as the author could then focus on the operant conditioning and not mention gambling, as the first thing that people think is randomness when they hear gambling.
Maybe you are right. But I still dont like the slot machine metaphor; chances there are really low, while with Claude Code I consistently achieve what I want with a good strategy.
Note that, I agree about the addiction to a certain extent. I just didnโt like the gambling metaphor.
The Israeli army is using AI systems to mark tens of thousands of Palestinians as potential targets for assassination. But the AI targeting systems have almost no human oversight and seem to be extremely permissive when it comes to casualties, regularly slaughtering entire families.
AI is being used to improve target tracking and kill rates of anyone Israel deems to be enemy combatants. Israeli company Smart Shooter has developed an AI-powered โsmartโ weapon sight that can be installed on any basic gun to transform it into a far more deadly AI precision-guided firearm.
Thanks for the article @taylorlorenz.bsky.social! You might want to check our relevant workshop: aiforpeaceworkshop.github.io.
From Gaza to now Iran and Lebanon, Israel is expanding its testing ground for AI-enabled military technology in terrifying ways.
Read my latest piece in Zeteo about how big tech is powering Israelโs AI war machine ๐
Last year, we introduced FlexOlmo, a novel way to train parts of a model independently then combine them later.
BAR builds on that idea for a harder problem: how to keep improving a model without having to retrain each time. ๐งต
I could indeed draw some parallels but there are fundamental differences:
- Gambling is often associated with drinking. I don't want to drink when I use Claude Code.
- After gambling (+drinking), people feel remorse + low self-esteem. Claude Code makes me super productive + confident.

@elluba.bsky.social and me are super excited to organize the first AI art gallery in a European conference #ECCV2026! I've met lots of AI artists over the years in Europe who couldn't travel to US to show their work. We are excited to see you in Malmรถ (Sweden) early September. Submit by 14th June!

PS: @emily.space Please do not take this as an attack to your post, it's more of an open discussion. I actually enjoy your posts a lot. ๐

- I feel that Claude Code is boosting my attention (bsky.app/profile/ekaz...). Not sure about gambling.
- With gambling you can lose a lot of money. With Claude Code it is constantly 100$ per month, never more.
- Claude Code is funded by my boss. I don't think my boss would fund my gamble.

A fun task tackling the domain shift from single-species training images to multi-species test images, an exciting opportunity to make real impact by improving plant identification worldwide!

One thing that I like to do for vision conferences is to create a custom feed for the conference, so people have the ability to see all posts from the conference gathered in one place. @graze.social makes it super easy!
