"How do you know about all this AI stuff?"
I just read tweets, buddy.

Everything that's not a chatbot is great, and that's why I have a whole website about normal AI!
The hype around large language models really lets you sneak in a lot of older, super basic machine-learning as long as you give it a little AI polish. Is this how statisticians felt about data science?
I love how absolutely bland the results are:
LLMs aren't perfect, but they're pretty good. Fine-tuned traditional models are also pretty good. Be careful when you're putting your data and prompts together. b Life is like that sometimes.
Rest of World has been doing some great work on AI lately. This is an especially excellent piece because it isn't about the traditional "here are the people doing the behind the scenes work" that's been so common when talking about not-America – instead, it's about the people who have been displaced by or are using AI in places like Mexico and Lagos.
Really really good read. Shows the difference between human- and AI-generated work, how the tools are used, all the details you could want. I don't know if it really deserves the #dystopia tag, but business is business.
This is weak. I'm tired of generic advice.
I wasn't there, but I cite this tweet like every hour of every day.
