I tried using ChatGPT to buy a pair of running shoes. The results were amazing. #Running #TrailRunning #ecommerce #ChatGPT artificialintelligencer.substack.com/p/i-tried-usin…

This year I’ve interviewed dozens of CTOs for my clients in AI tech. Here's what they say about AI - and what you can learn. #CTO #GenerativeAI #RAG open.substack.com/pub/artificial…

Your content team's job just went from "can you use ChatGPT?" to "can you direct AI across the entire workflow?" The businesses that win won't just change their architecture, they'll transform attitudes. artificialintelligencer.substack.com/p/ai-transform… #StopTheSlop #AIMarketing #ContentMarketing

Remember when "Solutions Architect" sounded made up? Stripe just posted for "Forward Deployed AI Accelerator." Job titles are getting weirder before they get normal. artificialintelligencer.substack.com/p/ai-transform… #StopTheSlop #GenerativeAI #FutureOfWork

@KSimback @cynthiamcgillis What about if you're a solo business? How do you get 5yrs worth of OneNote, Keep, cloud docs, AI chats etc. into a 'second brain' in the first place. And without overloading Obsidian (eg) with utter chaos?

@cynthiamcgillis Ideally companies have an internal portal of skills that are managed/maintained at the company level Might know someone working on this (as a feature of a more powerful product)

How are y'all handling company-wide skills? Putting them in a repo? Does that work for Cowork and less technical teams? I feel like there has to be a better way to organize these.

@sidlowe ...and will have studied average gaps in play, building prepackaged mini-highlights to show during delays. Risks however. Remember early 1990s Spanish coverage of ManU Barca with slo-mo close up of Paul Parker mouthing 'F**k Off'

@sidlowe Compare that with Amazon's coverage Tuesday. Really excelled with the tools on offer. Best directors combine the cinematic: spider cam, depth of field, unique stadium features, and the live narrative, eg knowing when to close up touchline action.

Last 10’ or so the cameras/direction in the Bayern game are all over the place. Dizzying. Very bad.

Anton Griezmann has been bugging me for weeks, but then I finally rem-embered. The absolute spit. #atleti

@dandouglas Exterior in COM was Battersea Power Station. But the interior was Tate Modern.

what they’ve done with Battersea Power Station irl is somehow even worse than in Children of Men

@yijiefeng Hmmm. Installing Claude is the biggest leap, for me, since iPhone or even Macintosh. Because it changes not *what* you do, but *how* or even *why*.

I'm noticing a trend there's a growing number of "AI consulting" firms charging $20K+ to "deploy Claude" to legacy businesses (mid-sized law, accounting, PE firms) as "Anthropic enterprise partners" what this means: - they install claude code, cowork - run a few commands to connect to tools - give generic or misleading advice on a tech stack meanwhile, there's more interest than ever for firms with 0 technical staff to build SaaS in-house and there's an entire industry of advice givers seeking to profit off of this trend last week I was on a call with a PE firm (working with one of these agencies) and someone who had never written code was asking whether to run a RAG vector DB on a Mac mini to chunk internal docs can't make this up

@aliftbll2 This. Imagine you had a player who was allowed to grab, with his hands, a bouncing ball in a tight situation and throw it straight to the next man in space. That's what he does. His technique into and out of tackles is unique as well.

Rice has this ability to win every bouncing or loose ball, anytime I think oh shit the ball is turned over, you just seem him come out of nowhere and win it to help sustain pressure

Automation ≠ transformation. Half of workers use AI daily but most haven't changed how they actually work. We need to talk about this. open.spotify.com/episode/3RwRfs… #StopTheSlop #AISlop #FutureOfWork

@johnarnold It's the shoes. Adidas and co turning running into F1 where engineering is as important as the driver/runner.

Curious to watch how many others break 2 hours in the coming year now that the psychological barrier is gone.

@JasonBradbury Ordered April, arrived mid October 82. The longest six months of my life.

Can’t quite believe the ZX Spectrum turns 44 today! 🙏 I’m even less willing to acknowledge I’m more than a decade older than it! On 23 April 1982, Sir Clive Sinclair unveiled a rubber-keyed, rainbow-striped 8-bit computer at the Churchill Hotel in London. It cost £125. It sold over five million units. It contributed significantly to the launch of the British IT industry. Around twenty thousand+ games were made for it including of course Jet Set Willy, Atic Atac and my personal fave - The Way of the Exploding Fist 🤜 💥 In the middle of an AI arms race, it’s worth remembering how simple the computing experience used to be. What was your first ZX Spectrum game?🕹️

@guywalters These WWII concrete megastructures in DE persist because near impossible to demolish and clear. Red Army sappers managed to collapse the one in Friedrichschain, but the tower of rubble persists. The upper platform lingers like a downed flying saucer.

The scale of this thing is nuts.

@davj It is actually starting to use this tone of voice with me.
