What happens once AI fixes all the bugs and then writes all the code, will the AI not have any bugs left to fix

Publishers have every right to challenge businesses that exploit their work—but the Wayback Machine has become collateral damage, the Internet Archive founder Brewster Kahle argues: theatln.tc/oV7fzdLp

The story never made sense and I’ve seen plenty of people sharing it who should have known better

If we sent AI people to prison when their agents induced teenagers to kill themselves or they hacked into other companies I think the "alignment" problem would solve itself pretty quickly

over the past few weeks several AI evaluation/cybersecurity experts have explained how what's happening is a result of human incompetence rather than "AI going rogue". I'm begging the media to show a shred of journalistic integrity and stop parroting what altman or amodei say

Last night I planted an olive tree at Gracie Mansion with Palestinian families from Gaza.  May peace be our future.

It's hard to overstate the level of psychic damage AI is inflicting on boomers, their minds truly have been turned to goop

Just incredible business sense to wade into this bullshit, why can you not just be happy to collect $60 a year for doing what Apple Passwords does for free and shut the fuck up

Just read a line from a letterboxd review that is not great: > I consume a lot of true crime, and I’ll freely admit that I’m a fan of the genre. Disgusting that "true crime" is a genre! Why is it that people feel it's OK to make the worst day of someone's life their entertainment, get a hobby

I made a website that lets you cut out old magazines from the internet archive (or any PDFs you own) and make collage art out of them: ✂️ clipart.studio

Hmmmm

This is not at all a novel tactic (this was happening at Reddit at least as early as 2015-2016) and it's ridiculous for anyone involved in this article to be saying that www.nytimes.com/2026/05/21/b...

Google, Microsoft, and Meta brag about how most of their code is AI-generated now. The developers generating that code say it sucks and that it's making the stupid www.404media.co/software-dev...

As wealth concentrates, so does power — the power to influence elections, shape policy, tilt markets and define the terms of public debate. Taxing billionaires is not radical. What is radical is allowing a system where extreme wealth exists alongside widespread hardship.

The "why don't they make the whole plane out of the black box material" of our age is "why don't they just use Claude to fix Claude outages?"

“We are collateral damage.” - Mark Graham, Wayback Machine When preservation is caught in the crossfire, it’s not just libraries that lose—it’s the public’s access to history, knowledge, and truth. The web shouldn’t disappear behind closed doors. ➡️ www.sfexaminer.com/news/technol...
