How much vfx is being done by AI video editing software/ massive gpu clusters over previous locally employed vfx studio artists? Maybe I’m thinking about this wrong but isn’t the compute/AI vfx models now reducing the amount of humans needed to edit things like Marvel character’s special effects scenes, etc?
Did you redact your ssn and PII info before feeding it to Claude? What are the implications for it seeing your PII by accident? Can it ever get leaked?
Can you talk a little about the work involved in making this masterpiece. Could something like this be vibecoded today with AI in your opinion? Amazing work! I played Brood War every free second I had in my younger days.
For men? I thought it was predominately cervical cancer
So make GLP1 free for the masses if it eliminates obesity mortality rate
How did your ex-gf get caught writing Malware and then how did that lead to prosecution without any tangible damage? A proof of concept was enough for a DA to nail her in court?

Likewise really miss those carefree days killing time in servers and making diabolically hard maps to play online with strangers and friends.
Battle.net servers was my hangout spot with friends eventually joint clans and playing ranked matches. Making maps to play online was also super fun. Brood War was perfect.
Sounds like the plot taken from For All Mankind
I think you have the wrong conclusion with Alexa’s skills and ecosystem, as a prior heavily bought-in Alexa user myself. It did feel like magic in the beginning and was a quality of life improvement if you automated repetitive task of daily life e.g. auto light/thermostat activation.
I never needed it to add stuff to my Amazon shopping cart or interpret things I said as voice shopping asks, which was a terrible UX.
There were so many other daily frustrations and Alexa skills that were half baked and random frequently resetting or going offline. Another frustration was Alexa failing to recognize the magic incantation to activate a simple action in the day to day when skills had overlapping utterances.
I actually wished Siri had better HomeKit IoT products so I could switch over, but I just gave up out of death by a thousand cuts wearing me down over the years and do everything manually now. Privacy and surveillance was also a huge tipping point to make me bin all my Alexa devices. I digress…
What happens if your flashlight craps out?
Has anyone successfully rallied their county to get this program enacted? Seems a lot of Cali zip codes are not available…
Google Glass comes to mind
Any idea if a pill form will be available in the future?
How has it been treating you? Do you keep muscle mass without having to hit 1g/lb of protein intake daily?
It causes less muscle loss/wasting which is a huge benefit over Tirz.

This… wow… should be tightly regulated and illegal to use on the general population.
Literally hijacking people’s neural activation pathways on a mass scale that can’t be easily blocked, unless you look away or start meditating.
Are there any other precedents for this kind of neural-subterfuge being released into the wild, effectively lowering the barrier to mass manipulation?

Should have launched it off from Geisel library
