More than any other public voice, Doctorow's AI take comes closest to articulating how I feel about the whole thing. Is it a bubble? Yes. Does that mean it's worthless? No. Do I worry about copyright? Mostly no, though I worry a lot about labor & monopolies, not to mention bia…

AI Weekly's analysis →
  • Sequoia calculated the AI sector needs roughly $600 billion in annual revenue to justify current infrastructure spending, while OpenAI generated about $3.4 billion last year.

I was working on a website with a colleague recently, and they asked if I inserted some typos to prove the site wasn’t made with AI. I was like, “No. I’m dyslexic, and my code editor doesn’t have spell check.” I also said, “thank you,” and meant it.
