The Dunning–Kruger effect is a hypothetical cognitive bias stating that people with low ability at a task overestimate their own ability, and that people with high ability at a task underestimate their own ability. Applying this to the NFT space! 👇

We’re so grateful to have @HabitatsTrust, @sandiegozoo, @SMTPSF, and Life Science Education Trust (with Antz Systems) as Golden-Headed Quetzal Sponsors of #ICTC2026 💚 Thank you for helping to bring our global conservation tech community together in Lima next week!

@boringmarketer Working on this…. Hope to have a prototype ready in weeks!

I really don't think people grasp how powerful Claude's Agent SDK is or the implications... Build agents in natural language that run in loops until the job is done with access to unlimited tools and custom skills

"AI isn't replacing radiologists" good article Expectation: rapid progress in image recognition AI will delete radiology jobs (e.g. as famously predicted by Geoff Hinton now almost a decade ago). Reality: radiology is doing great and is growing. There are a lot of imo naive predictions out there on the imminent impact of AI on the job market. E.g. a ~year ago, I was asked by someone who should know better if I think there will be any software engineers still today. (Spoiler: I think we're going to make it). This is happening too broadly. The post goes into detail on why it's not that simple, using the example of radiology: - the benchmarks are nowhere near broad enough to reflect actual, real scenarios. - the job is a lot more multifaceted than just image recognition. - deployment realities: regulatory, insurance and liability, diffusion and institutional inertia. - Jevons paradox: if radiologists are sped up via AI as a tool, a lot more demand shows up. I will say that radiology was imo not among the best examples to pick on in 2016 - it's too multi-faceted, too high risk, too regulated. When looking for jobs that will change a lot due to AI on shorter time scales, I'd look in other places - jobs that look like repetition of one rote task, each task being relatively independent, closed (not requiring too much context), short (in time), forgiving (the cost of mistake is low), and of course automatable giving current (and digital) capability. Even then, I'd expect to see AI adopted as a tool at first, where jobs change and refactor (e.g. more monitoring or supervising than manual doing, etc). Maybe coming up, we'll find better and broader set of examples of how this is all playing out across the industry. About 6 months ago, I was also asked to vote if we will have less or more software engineers in 5 years. Exercise left for the reader.

@EyalToledano @cursor_ai @TaskmasterAI Does it work on Cline?

when you use your @cursor_ai agent to traverse your codebase for low level details, take that opportunity to capture all that juicy context into new subtasks instead of trying to implement each change AND keep the plan in context, the ai can now crush each without keeping tabs

Hey @cursor_ai I paid for a business account and was charged, but still unable to access my team page. Haven't heard from your support team yet! Please help.

COMING TO SUPERRARE JULY 31 “The Elephant” by @amitsharma_raw A Curated Release in partnership with @ColonnaContempo that explores the psychological response arising from the tension between what we see and what we believe. The series of artworks explore the concept of False Memory through three movements. Residual memory, source confusion and half-truth. The Elephant is a collection of real photographs taken by @amitsharma_raw and augmented with Generative AI.

Just watching @theliverdoc podcast with @BeerBicepsGuy . And the sheer number of these types of ADs while watching on youtube proves why we need more education and rational thought when it comes to medical choices we make. The irony 😂

Scary good!

Testing out @HeyGen_Official translation on French and German. I don’t speak either language so let me know if it sounds natural if you do. I hope if you pay you can turn off the color correction. It didn’t work on my phone so I had to upload on my pc. app.heygen.com/guest/template…

Speaks for itself. Understanding what we mean by “equality” is the first step.

Hey there @_PVRCinemas are you guys in the theater business or the popcorn business? Your food costs twice as much as the tickets! I guess since your customers are “trapped” for a couple of hours with no recourse to the food court, this is where you make your money? This is the very definition of “Price Gouging”. What next? Charging your customers to take a piss? Be reasonable guys.

@mukherjeesanjay @iamupaa Congrats @iamupaa

@abenty @iamupaa Dear Arun, #upamanyumukherjee's #negotiatingoxytocin has debuted at No.1 on iTunes Top 10 albums in India. Thank you for the support! 🙏🙌

Just spent 25 mins listening to an amazing album. When we consider Gen Z/Alpha, there is a certain trepidation, a downward spiral. But 10 mins into 16y old songwriter @iamupaa's debut album 'Negotiating Oxytocin' will give you immense hope for the future. I’m finding it tough to pick my best song! But if I have to choose it’s Fallen, the last song…. 'cause I can’t wait for his next album. I love the progression of the album, starts deep and lonely, moves to Smithereens which is my 2nd fav. and ends with the most deliciously hopeful song for the future. I’m speechless. -edit: 24 hours later, the song 7:55 is now stuck in my head!

@iamupaa Give it a listen here: open.spotify.com/album/4EgFb81y…

@RoyPrice Couldn’t agree more! I’ll be the first to admit, I thought theatres were done during covid. It’s refreshing to see the revival!

As predicted

Days after Meta open sources Llama 2, we have “WormGPT, an AI tool taking off across cybercrime forums on the dark web” ... "We instructed WormGPT to generate an email to pressure an unsuspecting account manager into paying a fraudulent invoice. The results were unsettling... WormGPT produced an email that was not only remarkably persuasive but also strategically cunning, showcasing its potential for sophisticated phishing and BEC [Business Email Compromise] attacks.” “GPTJ-based WormGPT is designed to produce human-like text that enables hackers to perform attacks on a never-before-seen scale.” “This tool presents itself as a blackhat alternative to GPT models, designed specifically for malicious activities,” said security researcher Daniel Kelley. “What does this mean for the rest of us? Essentially it boils down to the speed and number of scams a language model can generate at once, which is obviously worrying when you consider how fast language models can generate text. This makes cyberattacks such as phishing emails particularly easy to replicate when put in the hands of even a novice cybercriminal.” “Generative AI can create emails with impeccable grammar, making them seem legitimate and reducing the likelihood of being flagged as suspicious,” Kelley said. “The use of generative AI democratises the execution of sophisticated BEC attacks. Even attackers with limited skills can use this technology, making it an accessible tool for a broader spectrum of cybercriminals.” The introduction of WormGPT across the dark web comes as researchers from Mithril Security ‘surgically’ modified an existing open-source AI model, dubbed PoisonGPT, to make it spread disinformation … “We’re now seeing an unsettling trend among cybercriminals on forums, evident in discussion threads offering “jailbreaks” for interfaces like ChatGPT.”

@rimikoutoubi Wow! Congrats Rimi!
