Genuine question: What is the real risk of using your brand's data in ai systems? Potential privacy breaches? Fear that Open AI will copy your business? An LLM training on your data then revealing it to someone with the right prompt?

$20/mo for claude might be the highest ROI spend ever

@CJSlattery What's your opinion on agency kickbacks in general? Not you, but in general? I have seen agency kickbacks on various tools nearly equal their agency fees for a client. Should agencies give a credit back to the brand? Refuse the money from the vendors?

Said it in a comment but will say it here. The amount of undisclosed financial entanglements in DTC twitter is immense. There is so much undisclosed paid promotion, “advisory shares,” direct investment, and more. You have to be crazy careful about who you listen to and about what. Sometimes, when something doesn’t work for you and other people are talking about how great it is, maybe they’re just being paid to say that. I could probably make $100k a year just slinging bullshit on Twitter and LinkedIn. That’s definitely not always the case, but sometimes it is. And even if they have “numbers” it is so easy to torture numbers until they sing. I could take our worst performing client engagement and make a case study out of it. It’s why I consider case studies to be absolutely worthless bullshit. Caveat emptor

Meta auto-applying this to every ad is diabolical.

This is going to be the latest peak season in 5 years. Poor carrier and 3PL performance in 2020 & 21 caused brands to run sales early ever since. Black Friday sales this year will start Thanksgiving week, not November 1. I, for one, welcome the return of the BFCM frenzy.

You know you are aging when finding your birth year in a form takes a few scrolls

Claude is getting worse. The usage restrictions are getting to the point where you can only do a few chats a day. Anything code related seems to exhaust your usage credits after just a few back and forths. Even if the output is better, the experience starting to stink

@AdamSinger @solalcs should change the value to 4pts /3pts

@solalcs Maybe interesting read for you (this is where I found the chart initially) -> thedosagemakesitso.substack.com/p/mid-range-ju…

Still thinking about this chart, wherein NBA is most concerned w/optimizing shots - at cost of entertaining gameplay - and since doing this viewership is down significantly. Is what happens when you let spreadsheet-brained NPCs run everything -music, movies etc all made boring

IRobot was a warning!

chatgpt in the car is one of my favorite new habits. instead of only podcasts, I will stop the podcast and learn more about something mentioned that I find interesting. Someone should build a wrapper that makes this easier

I'm sorry Dave, I'm afraid I can't do that
