Me: “I swear to God I’ll pistol-whip the next AI model that says ‘load bearing’!”

Also me: “Hey Claude, tell me why it isn’t safe to drop this database column…”

Today’s keynote at #OpenSourceSummit was a sharp rebuke of the OSI definition of open source AI.

We won’t have true open source AI until the data and training are open, too. #opensource #ai

A friendly reminder that the Flu shot’s job isn’t to prevent disease, it is to make the disease suck less.

Ask me how I know 😷

Some cause for optimism: AI assistants can make “lack of documentation” a thing of the past in open source.

Tonight I spent less than a half hour of “doc prompting.” That session produced 3 PRs which filled in a gap that was missing for more than 2 years.

I don't want to live in a world where we forget how to be kind to each other and that seems to be the goal of those who want to control us.

COLLINS: The NYT is reporting your legal team is seeking $230 million from your own DOJ now in response to the investigations into you. Is that something you want?

TRUMP: It could be, yeah. I don't even talk to them about it. All I know is they would owe me a lot of money. They rigged the election.

We're seeing lots of headlines about the catastrophic impact of massive data center expansion. But what else could data centers look like?

In my perpetual quest to seek out alternative technofutures, I want to highlight the really cool work of Keolu Fox.
