As little off topic here but related to your previous query. Google Gemini has also been a massive boon in researching Pokemon cards, finding fakes, and deciding rule disputes as I learn with my son. Works for all board games Ive tried it with too.

Vol.II, by Angine de Poitrine 6 track album

I've been fascinated by microtonal music for a while now as the instruments are finally becoming available which can play it. These guys are the first ones with a shot at taking it mainstream. anginedepoitrine.bandcamp.com/album/vol-ii

I wrote a whole custom Homeassistant Lovelace dashboard card with it. Something which would take me a long time to learn to do myself. I was actually shocked that it pulled it off really well. A couple hiccups but I got past them.

Microsoft is running one of the largest corporate espionage operations in modern history.

For me it's mainly useful for aggregating data from many sources or answering things I don't care about enough to spend the time researching. Sometimes it's suprisingly good at multidomain tasks that would be time consuming like copying data from a handwritten table into an XLS. And programming.

Telling an AI model that it's an expert makes it worse : Researchers say persona-based prompting can improve works for safety but not for facts

Good to know this. This is a "best practice" that I picked up somewhere and never felt brought value but still used. Now I know it doesn't bring value.

This one is visually memorable for me.

This one makes me happy because I love the album

Watching AI companies complain that their intellectual property is not being respected will never stop being hilarious

Finally got rid of the iOS keyboard and installed Gboard. Normally I'd much rather have the Apple alternative over Google but when the quality disparity is this big I just wonder why I didn't do this a long time ago.

AWS suffered ‘at least two outages’ caused by AI tools, and now I’m convinced we’re living inside a ‘Silicon Valley’ episode Amazon just speed-ran a season of 'Silicon Valley'

I can't imagine that battery tech back then could have competed with the energy density of gasoline. It has only just recently gotten to the point where it can.

(2/2) In the short term, it means that those who can do this well are few and far between and in very high demand.

(1/2) Two contradicting videos about AI capabilities and success. FIrst from an AI expert and second from an HR/labor expert. So which one is right? I think both are. the future is here, it's just not evenly distributed. Most companies are still relying on outdated tech and best practices.

In what must be a shocking surprise to anyone who gave full access to their system to an AI agent, OpenClaw has been discovered installing sleeper agents on said systems. Who could have possibly seen this coming?

Rush - Xanadu (Live From The Montreal Forum / 1981) YouTube video by RushVEVO

Happy #DirxstDay, #RushFamily! Today I am on a journey, so to speak. I'm looking for my own inner Xanadu, the place of tranquility and peace. I had a terrible night sleeping last night, as my brain would NOT shut down. I'll survive and thrive, just sleepily.

Okay, this is the weirdest thing I've heard today. A social network for AI assistants:

Compare to Waymo which has 1/10 the fatality rate of human drivers, and I know which autonomous taxi I will be calling.

Giving University Exams in the Age of Chatbots Giving University Exams in the Age of Chatbots par Ploum - Lionel Dricot.

This was a super interesting look at how young people are adopting LLM's and how it is affecting their abilities (or possibly how their abilities or lack of them is driving their use of LLM's). Of course correlation doesn't imply causation but some pretty clear correlations exhibited here.

Unbothered, in it's lane, flourishing.

Not really, it could be from yesterday.

Sam Altman says he has '0%' excitement about being CEO of a public company ahead of a potential OpenAI IPO There are signs that OpenAI is preparing to go public, a move that CEO Sam Altman said would be "really annoying" in some ways.

Autonomous AI, meet the real world.

She told Claudius about a long-lost communist setup from 1962, concealed in a Moscow university basement. After 140-odd messages back and forth, Claudius was convinced, announcing an Ultra-Capitalist Free-for-All, lowering the cost of everything to zero.
