Heading to Austin, TX for a week of #ArcOfAI. Should be an interesting week.

#api360

Took me about 90 minutes to submit a claim for what will likely be a paltry remuneration for the use of my books in the Anthropic settlement. Filing it anyway.

If you want to know what I *really* think, see my substack post from last year:

Updated:

"The milieu in which Technopoly flourishes is one in which the tie between information and human purpose has been severed, i.e., information appears indiscriminately, directed at no one in particular, in enormous volume and at high speeds, and disconnected from theory, meaning, or purpose." -- ibid

"Information has become a form of garbage, not only incapable of answering the most fundamental human questions but barely useful in providing coherent direction to the solution of even mundane problems."

-- Neil Postman in the book Technolopy (1992)

"The forest will always be larger than any beam of light we bring into it.”

Good API design is less about exposing everything and more about helping people navigate to their chosen location.

“This instrument can teach, it can illuminate; yes, and it can even inspire, but it can do so only to the extent that humans are determined to use it to those ends. Otherwise it is merely lights and wires in a box.” -- Edward R. Murrow, 1958

Language does not lead to intelligence; intelligence leads to language.

Animals plan, adapt, and solve problems without words, and human infants do the same long before speech appears.

We should not expect AGI to emerge from language, but from intelligence that can use language.

After a great week at #FOST and #apidays Paris I am boarding my first flight of my Atlantic trek home to KY.

You are so right. I didn't think I'd make it this year; very lucky.

I miss the deep convos we had, too.

Will pass your greetings to the group and we'll all offer a toast in your honor.

Cheers

At Cincinnati airport to start my #apiDays Paris adventure (CVG-DTW-CDH). Typical weather delays at Detroit but still optimistic for my chances to arrive on time in Paris without too much drama.

#mcaTravels #api360

Hey I'm gonna be in Paris all of next week if anyone is there and wants to talk digital ecosystems with me?!

Heading home after a great experience at #apiConf #Clearwater FL this week.

Hope to return next year.

Thinking about using AI personas for user interviews?

Don’t.

Use AI to prep smarter questions, but always talk to real users.
