this article opens with 10 paragraphs about Daniel Stenberg and cURL’s slop problem as of January without mentioning that in April he said: ”The slop situation is not a problem anymore” and AI reports ”are mostly very high quality” daniel.haxx.se/blog/2026/04...
A lot of people will say they don't believe my numbers on individual AI prompts not being bad. You can use this collection of estimates from outside experts and just see for yourself how many times you'd have to send each prompt to raise your carbon footprint by 1%. huggingfac…

I think I figured out exactly how the “AI used a bottle of water per prompt” miscalculation happened open.substack.com/pub/andymasl...
Just posted the first of a few posts on what I see as the history of the data center panic, this first one is on what was happening pre-ChatGPT blog.andymasley.com/p/a-history-...

I wrote a half thought out rant about how what's interesting about AI art is that it allows people to curate and display their taste, and whether it's "really art" or "really creative" is less interesting blog.andymasley.com/p/ai-art-as-...
I wrote a quick political rant on what people mean by "democratic resistance to AI," which I sometimes strongly agree with and sometimes think is actually a depressingly anti-democratic way of steamrolling the debate blog.andymasley.com/p/what-does-...
This is a fake quote. It doesn't appear anywhere in the talk this is coverage of. Here's the talk, you can search the YouTube transcript: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bj7Q... Here's the source of the quote: theprint.in/feature/jeff...
The AI labs really need to improve their image. They could form some sort of political pac, maybe call it the "AIPAC." I'm sure it'd be really popular
Wow this farmer has a message for AI companies who want to buy his land
My big main objection to how people talk about chatbots is they often imply the majority of people are so tasteless and stupid that they need to be protected from their own use of a talking computer
Had two separate people I knew from college and hadn't talked to in a while mention that AI had helped them find a life changing medical diagnosis breakthrough, it was a little wild and I wasn't fishing for that at all.
I've had a very nice back-and-forth email exchange with Shaolei Ren, who provided the original "AI uses a bottle of water per prompt" estimate with the Washington Post. (1/5)

There's a funny inconsistency in what people believe about how much energy AI uses: "AI uses 10x as much energy as a Google search" ✅ "10 Google searches use as much energy as a few seconds of Netflix" ✅ "AI prompts use as much energy as a few seconds of Netflix" ❌ Must be a lie, must be a shill
Gonna plant a flag that I believe AI will be the main political issue in the 2028 race
It's definitely looking like an AI bubble (a bubble of AI agents expanding at near light speed in all directions from the dyson swarm formerly known as Earth)
To be clear I’m very happy we have an AI safety pope
