Yes we all think this is stupid but we, the ppl brushing our teeth, are not the customers The customers are the investors who in ~1yr will be enticed to fund Dyson's smart dental AI spinoff, featuring models trained on "the world's largest real time floss dataset" gizmodo.com/dysons-smart...

I just read this post from one of the 200+ people laid off from Apple. 37 years at the company. Led features like Handoff and “Add to Dock”. Apple has 166K employees and so this is a tiny layoff relative to thousands across big tech. Yet it’s still sad to not let people leave on their own terms.

So I get that there's (yet again) a big debate going on about AI on Bluesky. I am turning off replies to this post because I don't want to have notifications flooded one way or the other on this one. I just want to share what I've heard multiple times in just the past two weeks.

I don’t get why everyone is angry at Anthropic for text watermarking, if everyone else, including OpenAI, signed the same EU AI Act Code of Practice? 🤔

Super interesting thread.

I found this passage in Mark Zuckerberg's pro-AI manifesto baffling. It's like Zuckerberg, or his comms team, or the AIs his comms team used, know that creativity is about turning "ideas" into "expression" but none of them actually know where those terms come from or what they mean. 🧵

ANTHROPIC: Our son loves humanity and for the low price of trillions and trillions of dollars will usher in an era of unprecedented peace and prosperity! OPENAI: Our horrible oafish son is hacking web sites without our permission. ANTHROPIC: (eyes narrowing) Our son is also evil
