One good reason to doubt the 3-5yr timeline of the AI jobpocalypse is the utter incompetence of most organizations. Most jobs could already be eliminated if companies just did stuff in a less roundabout way. Bullshit email jobs don’t exist bc those ppl are really good at sending emails

Citibike cutting the e-bike top speed from 18 to 15mph is textbook enshittification: basically a 16% price hike by making the product worse

A crucial pt about AI writing: this never happens. That's why it's so easy to identify AI writing - the next world is always exactly what you think it will be

The difference between good and great prose: when instead of reading with a kind of auto-complete in your head, where you anticipate the next word, you are surprised so consistently that you stop and surrender to the misdirection, the aptness, the wily mind of the writer

People introducing themselves by their handle is the 21st century version of occupational surname like ‘Michael Shoemaker,’ ‘David Carpenter,’ etc.

During his election campaign, Trump debuted a mysterious proposal in support of “freedom cities.” Details have been sparse since then—but charter-city advocates have been pursuing legislation ever since. @samfromvenis reports: thepointmag.com/politics/turbo…

very good article by @samfromvenis about surreal libertarian visions of charter cities/sovereign states and their desire to replace legacy nations like the US in the same way modern nations replaced medieval feudalism…..

Charter-city advocates argue that China’s strategy of special economic zones was essential to their economic ascendance, and that if American leaders were smart, they’d reproduce the model. Has the Trump administration begun to take notice? thepointmag.com/politics/turbo…

With “freedom cities” suddenly sprouting as a branch of federal industrial policy, what was once a LARP is now the subject of congressional debate and a legitimate investment opportunity. @samfromvenis reports on what might be coming next: thepointmag.com/politics/turbo…
