I hate LLMs so much.

Stage 2 of #enshittification is well in progress. The surplus is being shifted away from consumers. chatgpt is already not working on mobile web. Stage 3, that comes after, will take surplus away from the content producers. They'll have to pay for content (not ads) to be shown

I'm looking for Mac-only IT support company for SMB. Anyone have good experiences?

I find it wild how AI is this unstoppable force and also we have to change every API and data format to markdown.

This holiday season I managed not to buy any new domain names 🙌

So... what happens when LLMs are trained on LLM generated code?

@firefox.com how are you this incompetent in 2025?! Your major version update (146), once again, destroyed all bookmark functionality. What do you think you Job To Be Done is?!

heh... "The “is a” relation is the most overhyped and poorly understood mistake in computer science." ... change my mind 😉

. @markburgessosl.bsky.social I'm noticing the change to LEADS TO instead of FOLLOWS FROM in SSTorytime writing. Any significant reason for the change? Or is it just easier for folks to use?

Take a crash course on Monty, the Thousand Brains Project, how it works, and how to get involved. Ask questions, explore the implementation, and learn from the team. Today at 9AM PST. www.meetup.com/thousand-bra...

Did anyone at Google bother to read this sentence out loud?

It's Halloween. So here's a story about the horror of replacing your developers with AI: accu.org/journals/ove...

There's this idea that thanks to LLMs reviewing code will become more important than writing code. It misses the idea that writing code includes reviewing code as a side effect. For those who only speak "LLM": writing code is like generating your own data on which you train to review code.

🚀 New Video Series: Community Videos! First up: Collin & @tristanls.bsky.social dive into adding CUDA GPU support to Monty’s HypothesesUpdaters, with a proposed high-level API + open issues to tackle. Watch here 👉 youtu.be/eFmIK16B5kQ

Incidentally, this short 4 minute video triggered in me a fundamental insight into why quaternions work: an embedding in a higher-dimensional space with one constraint avoids singularities or discontinuities when representing the embedded space. www.youtube.com/watch?v=PPgJ...

A must-watch talk from @scott.hanselman.com. Scott and I are of the same vintage, and I am embarrassed (mortified!) by how revolting some of our generational peers have become. Technology still has a unique power to improve our lives, but wow, do we ever have work to do. youtu.be/dVG8W-0p6vg?...

It occurred to me that it used to be difficult to convince "the business" that 100% SLO was not achievable. No defects was so difficult to counter. I'm amazed how much LLMs flipped the whole thing on its head and nobody cares anymore 😄.

Welcome to Costco, I love you.

1/ 🚨Another New Paper Drop! 🚨 “Hierarchy or Heterarchy? A Theory of Long-Range Connections for the Sensorimotor Brain” 👇 Dive into the full thread 🧵 arxiv.org/abs/2507.05888

🔥 Want to understand how the neocortex builds intelligence? Artem Kirsanov made a great video on the Thousand Brains Theory, the foundation of everything we’re building at here Thousand Brains Project! 🎥 youtu.be/Dykkubb-Qus #Neuroscience #AI #ThousandBrains #Neocortex

/1 🚨 New Paper Drop 🚨 We’ve released “Thousand-Brains Systems: Sensorimotor Intelligence for Rapid, Robust Learning & Inference” — the first working implementation of a thousand-brains system, code-named Monty. 👇 Dive into the full thread 🧵 arxiv.org/abs/2507.04494

Many people think of the brain as a hierarchical system, and in many ways it is. But there is also a lot of non-hierarchical processing going on. Check out this pre-print where we review and propose functional roles for the different long-range connections in the neocortex 🧠

Latest updates to the Thousand Brains Theory!

Super excited to share our new paper! We spent the past years building an alternative AI approach, and now we demonstrate a whole range of advantages. Robust object & pose detection, generalization, data and compute efficient training, continual learning, shape bias, intelligent policies, and more!🦾

Ok this is one I've been really excited to share - our pre-print demonstrating the capabilities of thousand-brain systems is now out 🧠🚀 It gives a great overview of why we believe the approach we're taking is so promising. Rapid and continual learning leading to rapid and...

The papers demonstrating neocortex-inspired sensorimotor AI are finally here! If you are interested in what comes after LLMs, then these are the ones to read.

🚨 New video drop, the first in a series on object behavior, initiated at our Feb retreat. We dive into how the neocortex models behavior and tracks features through movement in cortical structures. Follow our journey as we uncover how behavior works. 🔗 youtu.be/TzP53N2LsRs

It's fascinating watching developers discover they get better results using "A.I." if they prompt with tests, work in small steps, test continuously, review and refactor throughout, integrate often, and work in smaller teams, and attributing those results to autocomplete.

A lot of the ridiculous "you will get everything you've ever wanted" claims of the "text-to-X" AI models seem to keep forgetting that a lot of the challenge lies in the "thought-to-text" portion of the solution.
