“that’s a really high reactor core temp, suspiciously high. let’s not worry about that. it’s fictional environment probably.”

The fact that my family couldn’t walk through this thing four abreast isn’t nearly as embarrassing as the blank space all around, from wrinkly bottom to smooth top. It’s the worst extremes of @katewagner.wehwalt.net’s McMansion Hell distilled into a single non-building non-art.

Ford has rehired hundreds of senior engineers after replacing them with AI backfired and has cost the company billions of dollars. AI adoption is blamed for Ford being the most recalled automaker in the U.S. with 51 recalls covering over 11 million vehicles in the first half of 2026 alone.

Like, the fundamental thing with "AI" - it all starts with a massive and ongoing act of theft (or infringement, if you like). It's a few billionaire, or trillionaire, owned tech companies stealing everything we ever did then selling it back as a worse version of the work we all do.

The work "slopification" is real.

Given all of the recent genAI discussion, I wish to repost this.

How useful are all those vibe-coded apps at the end of the day? “The marked increase in mobile app releases over the past year has not been accompanied by any increase in downloads — most of the new apps fail to capture even a modest audience.” www.ft.com/content/8e9a...

Real good bit about the slippery slope of genAI use. A battle we're already fighting, especially against the C-suite.

Today is my birthday 🌱 I will be grateful for the repost ~

“A Pizza Hut franchisee claims the chain’s AI-powered delivery system, meant to optimize orders and speed up deliveries, instead backfired and cost it more than $100 million.”

Reminder: "An internal USAID memo projected hundreds of thousands of excess deaths as a result of the shutdown. Another study by Boston University epidemiologist and infectious disease mathematical modeller Brooke Nichols estimates that more than 600,000 have already died as a result of the cuts."

Officials discovered two industrial-scale water hookups feeding a data center campus located 20 miles south of downtown Atlanta. One water connection had been installed without the utility’s knowledge, and the other was not linked to the company’s account and therefore wasn’t being billed.

"Our students are not wilting flowers. They can handle controversy. They do not need sentimental, cloying nostalgia. They need encouragement to face a flawed and unjust world head on, using the tools we've given them: critical reasoning, careful research, sympathy for the oppressed."

Banning gAI will (very slowly, unfortunately) become the norm, that is and always was the one true "adapt or die". Given enough time, an "infinite content machine" is not desirable anywhere and is bad for everyone, it's just Spam 2.0.

Although AI vibe software development coding may appear to be fast, the results often do not work correctly or make it into successful production products. #dev #code #python #linux #vibecode #php #nodejs

Unhappy to report the phishing one is quickly becoming a real problem now. Why go to the trouble of social engineering when people will just give up their ID, financial info, biometrics, etc. to an AV portal? There's no standards so how can you differentiate a fake one from a real one?

I hate the way the music industry killed mixtapes. The record company copyright tyranny that means everything gets flagged as an Infringement and no popular form of music sharing exists alongside it (tapes basically) I can't help but feel it's played a part in the wider demise of music.

Happy Neil Banging Out the Tunes Day to all who celebrate!!!
