One of the things I learned writing on social networks is: asking for answers in the post just doesn't work. People answer/reply because they want to according to the post, not because the author asks for an answer (like "and you, what do you think?") ๐คท๐ป

SQL has no secrets anymore... thanks, ChatGPT ๐คท๐ป
Saying "don't use AI because you'll lose your thinking ability" is like saying "don't use the digital address book because you'll lose your memory ability."
I can't help but do it
Read a book in the traditional way, page by page (on paper, possibly).
Then, ask ChatGPT for a summary of the same book.
After that, challenge both it and yourself on what you grasp further, to learn more and gain different perspectives, and possibly pursue further reading.
It's powerful.
Time for another personal software.
WhatsApp allows exporting the full chat with someone.
I wanted to gain some insights from a time perspective.
I ran @bolt.new, and after a few minutes, I had what I needed to play with.
The speed of having an idea, making it, and then moving on is impressive.
Yes we can ask ChatGPT a bullet list of important insights from an entire book, but reading a book is a means to deeply learn and fix to our memory such insights.
I'm soft-launching a little project used privately by several clients so far.
It's the first project I created with 100% AI assistance.
I barely typed some characters, pretty much all the code has been written not by me, but by the AI.

Startup idea: an AI Agent that will analyze and assess for you the coming huge wave of AI Agent platforms!
At some point, there'll be tools that will easily allow regular people to fine-tune LLM models that will be plugged in somewhere, and that will generate any kind of competition (and markets) you can imagine.
I have the same repulsion when reading "RIP software dev" as well as "Vibe coding is a joke" ๐คท๐ป
I now use ChatGPT for search all the time. And I pay for it $20/month. Something I don't know I would do for Google back then, to be honest.
I now find myself using Google search only to verify chatgpt results, when in doubt.
If you want to write on social media, just write, it'll be awful at the beginning, then, you'll find your way, aside from metrics, you'll feel good.
In a world where producing a quantity of text is no longer an effort, I start to value much more short (but dense in meaning) text.
I find it somewhat ironic; maybe software can survive AI. What about Stack Overflow?
Who is going to develop a dedicated and specialised fundation LLM model able to select between LLM models?
All the demos of an AI-based search tool are: finding a restaurant, booking a hotel, or a flight. ๐ค
I don't really know why I ignored @obsidian.md ... definitely a mistake.
I thought it was a joke. It's all real ๐
Same here
The next big thing will be a marketplace of MCP servers with unified auth and billing.
I want a writing tool that contains all my writings, notes, ideas, drafts, and, aside helping writing, fixing, also proactively suggest and propose and stimulate me.
The o3 image analysis capability is insane, we should really stop publishing personal images on the web.
Progress on this little tool connected with Google Slides...
MCP is underhyped
There's no more release' day strategy
One of the best not so popular benefits of using ai code assistance? Helping you to tune yourself again on code base you worked a while ago
Wondering why all the tech-optimist ppl and Trump supporters, are pretty silent these days ๐คท
Picturing the data flow is a very valuable and important skill.
