  • Guy got in trouble because of the dumbest possible telephone game (among other things)

    For example, although court documents claim Sanchez searched, “is the 900 mAh battery from a (Game Boy) capable of being used in a trigger device," Sellers said that was actually a search from [his bail] supervisor, who was cross-referencing real searches from Sanchez to see if they could be used to make explosives.

    [Bail supervisor] Coyle then took a screenshot of his own search history and sent it to the district attorney, leading to a violation of Sanchez’s probation and his rearrest, Sellers said.





  • Wired’s Maxwell Zeff wrote about a number of journalists using A.I. to assist their writing, including the Times columnist Kevin Roose… who [created instructions] to help Claude write in his style, including the “10 commandments” of writing like Alex Heath.

  • Those quotes are nearly incomprehensible and they aren’t isolated incidents either. This CEO talks like every tech CEO selling AI products.

    When you look at the term browser, it’s very antiquated in the sense that there’s static content, and when I click on the content, I get to the next link… With apps, it became more bidirectional. There’s more rich engagement with AI.

    Instead of being a browser, it’s becoming a generative system, but it’s not doing it in a negative way that prevents the person’s incentive from creating the content in the first place.

    CEO sure did say a thing. But it’s the interviewer’s job to say please explain what you mean" in response.
