We ran a randomized controlled trial to see how much AI coding tools speed up experienced open-source developers.
The results surprised us: Developers thought they were 20% faster with AI tools, but they were actually 19% slower when they had access to AI than when they didn't.

I ran an absolutely 100% human, zero AI-involvement at any stage passage of my writing through an "AI detector," curious if it could really tell human from AI work, and it said my own writing was "84% AI written" then asked I wanted to pay to have it "humanized." So there's that to keep in mind.

Out of curiosity, I just ran a few paragraphs from The Butchering Art through an AI checker and it got flagged: 88% AI. This book was released in 2017, and AI machines were subsequently trained off it. How many writers are getting flagged for AI because of the literal theft of their work(s)? Insane.
OMG - f*ck AI for ruining the em-dash for writers. I use them all the time. Of course, what a shock that AI uses them since they were trained off my voice and other authors' voices.
I'm a writer who has specifically been directed *not* to use em-dashes because "they mean it was written by AI." I can detect AI writing, but it is not simply a matter of the punctuation used.

Gift link, probably the funniest thing the Wall Street Journal has done this year.
We Let AI Run Our Office Vending Machine. It Lost Hundreds of Dollars.
An AI agent ran a snack operation in the WSJ newsroom. It gave away a free PlayStation, ordered a live fish—and taught us lessons about the future of AI.

If the biggest donor to the DCCC/DNC ran a website where you could use AI to take women's clothes off I feel like there'd be a demand for Dems to give the money back.

NEW: Meta reviewed, approved, and ran more than 50 ads containing AI-generated child sexual abuse material across Facebook, Instagram, Messenger and Threads. They ran for nine months. Some were live this week. After WIRED asked about them, researchers found ~30 more

Out of curiosity I ran one of my texts (which is already available online) in Pangram, the AI detector thing. It thinks it's 75% likely to be AI.
I obv didn't use any AI whatsoever in writing it. So yeah, miss me with "we are SO reliable in detecting AI".

My favorite pro-AI argument goes like this: "In the past, other technologies have truly been transformational" and that's the whole argument

It's been fascinating to follow AI industry's journey from "it's smarter than your experts!" to "at least it's cheaper than a human" to "your annual token budget ran out in March"
‘While some cling to the promise of an AI “revolution,” the cost of adoption is proving a stubborn bottleneck. These developments also suggest that the economics of replacing human labor with AI may be more complicated than some early forecasts originally implied.’ fortune.com/2026/05/22/m...
Microsoft reports are exposing AI's real cost problem: Using the tech is more expensive than paying human employees | Fortune
Companies are racing to incentivize employees to use AI. But as some companies are finding, the more employees that use the technology, the heavier the bill.

Crunchyroll really just becoming a piece of shit AI also-ran garbage company, good grief
I don't know if anyone but me would catch this, but @crunchyroll.com's latest article for the new Doraemon movie uses an AI-generated image of the cast for the header.
You can tell because Shizuka and Suneo look completely wrong, and there's telltale problems with the lineart.

They just ran a commercial for Google AI where a guy was making pasta sauce and poured too much sugar in, and the AI suggested he turn it into cookies (?). Then he ate one and was like “mmm!”

The bigger issue is that this gives people the ability to launder real csam.
Real csam ran through AI almost instantly becomes legal.

Woke up to this news and I’m beyond disgusted. It’s a US *constitutional right* now to create and own ‘CSAM,’ as long as it was made with AI??
AI gen images are built from real images, of real children. This directly re-exploits every single CSAM survivor.

When you say “AI models went rogue,” you manage to skip the part where OpenAI manually removed its cybersecurity blocks and ran tests on a machine with a live network connection. Remember that when they insist they’re the “AI safety” people.

andrew cuomo ran one of the worst political campaigns in modern history but i think my favorite part was in this ai ad, the pregnant bill cited chatgpt as a source and a chatgpt phone walks onto the screen and goes “that’s right”

NYT just ran a piece about illegal activity and sexual assault in AI incubators/party mansions and i think as we see more and more of these stories emerge we'll also see a heretofore unheard-of level of victim blaming, especially concerning women of color.
