My latest for @PopMatters : the fascinating new book by @DigitalAnika on the role of moderators in online communities popmatters.com/anika-gupta-ho…

This is a very misinformed view of clothing manufacturing. Tariffs can drive up prices, shrink variety, and lower quality. Let me show you how. 🧵

Did a bit of playing with @AgentDotAi over the holidays. Built an agent that spins up a creator marketing campaign based on what you sell. The programming model was very constrained, but it felt like I was seeing an early version of a new kind of app store that will live in everyone's systems of record.

If your work involves working with or moderating online communities, I think this book by @DigitalAnika is quite useful and interesting. Lots of insight into the hard work of moderation and value of communities of all types and platforms simonandschuster.com/books/How-to-H…


Live first playthrough by a game design professor -- so cool



🗓️Mark your calendars! The amazing @GamerGrrl is going to be creating and playing a holiday adventure - powered by AI Adventure - this THURSDAY at 7MT/9ET pm! So excited to work with her and also...to see how this crazy story turns out😂

Two mini-launches for AI Adventure * Share snippets from the adventures that you play * Play the first quest of adventures without login Coming very soon: - Tweaks from the feedback about the interplay between open-ended worlds & having firm stakes that matter

This is the first thing that has me looking at Google’s LLMs with interest. Content moderation is a HUGE challenge that isn’t binary at all. This kind of nuance in settings will lengthen the reign of BigCo LLMs a bit in the face of DIY LLMs becoming production viable.
