We went from “AI is just a next token predictor” to “Awkshully you’re doing custom mRNA research with ChatGPT all wrong” real quick.

@SullyOmarr it's not just plumbers tho.
there will also be tons of valuable jobs for important bottlenecks like solving captchas and counting the number of Rs in strawberry.

dumbest take I’ve ever heard
what does he think the people who lost their jobs gonna do?
oh right they’ll probably LEARN to be a plumber
so now you have 1b people who lost their jobs (ai) trying to fight for the remaining plumbing jobs. infinite supply of plumbers

.@travisk says AI will make human labor even more valuable and in-demand than ever before: "Let's say the entire world - everything in our world - was automated, except for plumbers. You had machines making buildings - you would basically have like a thousand buildings a day." "How valuable would those plumbers be?" "Each and every plumber would be like LeBron. Why? Because plumbing would be the long pole in the tent to progress. You can't get those thousand buildings unless you have a plumber." "And by the way, you'd get so much efficiency everywhere else that you'd need millions of plumbers." "Humans [are going to] become more and more valuable because they will be the long pole in the tent to progress - and that progress is going to accelerate and get faster and more robust."

dude computers are actually so fucking insane when you really think about it. we literally figured out how to write some fake-ass rules called code and somehow convinced rocks to follow them. like actual rocks. sand, melted, purified, carved into tiny pathways where electricity just flows in patterns. that’s it. that’s the whole magic.
and yet from that we get operating systems, compilers, kernels, networks, distributed systems, machine learning models, entire virtual worlds running inside other virtual worlds. billions of tiny electrical decisions per second, all because we defined some abstract logic.
humans basically invented a language of instructions and taught matter itself to execute it.

something i learned from my wife, who recently learned how to sew: do not do beginner projects. if what you want to make is difficult to make, you should just try to make it. don't do a slow learning process. don't start with the basics. start with the advanced

Use Safari AND Claude? Then you know this flow: copy, open Claude in a new tab, paste, ask a question. Go back. Have another question. Back to Claude. Over and over. Chrome users have an extension. Safari users? Nada.
So I built AlliHat. Claude on Safari. A sidebar extension. Ask it anything without leaving what you are doing. Summarize, explain, convert this to inches, find the source of an article, whatever. It remembers your conversations per URL. It runs on your own API key so nothing touches my servers.

@JoshMoulton This is great.
It's weird how close we are to neighbors and never hang out with them.
English
Last night our group of 11 neighbors took the #8 halsted bus down from Lakeview to Skylark Bar in Pilsen.
Our first Fletcher St Field trip
It was my pick for the first bar and we plan on doing one monthly. No one in this group besides me had been there before. They loved it.

Google might cure cancer.
But then they’d put it in Google Cloud Console and not even cancer patients would be motivated enough to find it.

@ry_d_e hilariously i find claude's own search through previous sessions strangely lacking :)
