Daily Alchemy: a question to think on together
“If AI starts creating the stories, songs, and medicines that shape our lives, what do humans most need to keep making ourselves?”
Trust ranks through the site stewards' curated lens.
The Open Question Jun 24: What makes humans unique & valuable?
Hey y'all! This week Oracle said in its official SEC filing it replaced 21,000 jobs with AI. And last month Pope Leo XIV delivered his first encyclical arguing that the real danger of is that we start treating people, including ourselves, as products to be optimized and... Please help me stay intellectually honest!
I'm not a fan of generative AI in general, and LLM technology specifically. I think its capabilities are being drastically over-hyped. It's a perfect, sweaty example of a solution looking for a problem. I'm skeptical of many claims people are making wrt how it's helping them.... Trump is going to be President (again)
The assassination attempt is definitely helping propel Trump to the presidency (aka the belief that "God is ordaining Trump to be president, thus saved him from harm"), though Elon Musk’s immediate endorsement after the assassination attempt (and $45 mil per month committed... AI gave me TikTok brain
I fell into a pattern of ask ChatGPT first, think second. And it caused me to think less for myself. Any problem or idea with building my business, writing software, etc. my default would be to ask ChatGPT, read its response, then start thinking about it.... There are two ways I know of to code with LLMs well, at least if you’re me. 1: If you want to keep building on something: know what it’s doing all the time, and take responsibility for whether that’s a good way to do it.... Claude's character training
https://www.anthropic.com/news/claude-character (From June. There’s also an audio version there, nice to hear Amanda Askell share some personal takes.) Over the past few months, I keep feeling more like asking for Claude’s help on various stuff, and less like asking for ChatGPT’s... PSA on using ChatGPT to edit writing- We’ve probably all read text that was obviously written by AI. If you’re using AI to edit writing- pro tip: rather than have the tool write anything for you, instead ask it to ask you questions, suggest what you’ve missed in your writing,... A future I love: Collaboration AI and Collective Agency
This vision is totally under construction right now, so the way I share it here is going to be choppy and incomplete, because that's what I've got. Near future: Tipping Point for sensible discourse - I dream of a near future where red and blue don't only throw things at one... - johnky...
My Journey with Claude Code
The more I use Claude Code, the more impressed I become. I keep throwing progressively harder problems at it, and whenever the problem is conceptually tractable, it can usually just solve it.... What the Pope said on AI, and where it leaves us
Last month Pope Leo XIV released his first encyclical. Perhaps unsurprisingly, it's about artificial intelligence, and what it might be doing to our sense of being human.... - Shera JoyCry...
After further consideration :) Upload: warm fuzzy interesting dramatic and funny on Prime *Super Loved (amazonprime) Severance: So well done, what if we could clone ourselves to do the work we didn’t love.... - annabeth...
Amazing hack to assess accuracy of your writing
As I’ve been building this project I’m calling Better Political Conversations, I’ve stumbled across an AMAZING "virus detector" for my writing. When I think a section of my content is complete and fully edited, I copy-paste it into NotebookLM and have it generate a podcast of the... - LeifHansen...
Digital Mystics: AI, Love & Spirit Can Dance Together Harmoniously
I'm becoming increasingly confident that we're potentially standing at the threshold of humanity's greatest evolutionary leap. The AI revolution isn't merely a technological shift—it's a cosmic invitation to expand our understanding of what it means to be human.... The anti-uptrust
First time I'd heard of Cluely, a startup that whose website explicitly says "invisible AI to cheat on everything" and raised $15M from a16z. Check out 21 yr old founder Roy Lee at 9:50 in this podcast "theres not enough viral content to go out.... Quick reflections on vibe-coding:
kicks up weird addiction cycles in me the end product feels more like 20-30% jordan's creation and 70-80% LLM's. The text for example is all a little off, the style, etc, and it drifts because it's so easy to have it do it and so much more "time consuming" to go fix all the... Second Coming <--> Positive Singularity <--> Steel-UpTrust? pt 1
Note: Originally written for the participants of the AI alignment X spirituality/metaphysics retreats I’ve co-hosted with Jordan and Anna Salamon, so there may be some references to ideas or people you don’t know.... - nat...
I didn't book an accommodation because of AI generated images
I love AI because it has helped me save hours by automating systems, analyzing SEO, and creating website content. But today, while researching places to stay in Buenos Aires, I realized that we need to be mindful of when to use AI so that trust is not eroded.... - Mark Burns...
A Partially Artificial Manifesto
This post was generated by AI. Every word of it. Directed, edited, and published by me — but generated by a large language model under my instruction. I'm telling you now, in the first line, because transparency isn't a footnote. It's the foundation.... I had a similar journey with Christianity. Some of you know I was in a cult from 23-26 and fell out because…it was a cult. I think it was a bit better than an average cult though because as we were starting they made sure to tell everyone, "Don’t trust us, trust your experience."... I’m excited about what might be possible in the longer term, when we have the combination of: slick private groups, as an equivalent of DMs activity + AI prompt driven nudges from bots trust scores for bots In my best case scenario, that could unlock something like a...
