FYI -- there's no such thing as a "tactical" nuke. A nuclear bomb is a nuclear bomb.

Can people please not post links with vague titles like this? I had to click through and read half the article to even figure out what this was about, and I wasn’t interested.

Why does the term “spiritual” bother you so much? Perhaps interrogate that.

Scientific studies grasping for explanations to spiritual things always give me a smile. This is the way. It’s about opening up to the energetic experience being conveyed through the medium (art, music, whatever). Has nothing to do with ind

Google has the time, money, TPUs, and ability to siphon talent. It'll be an unsexy slog to the top, but they'll get there eventually.

I don't mean to be cynical, but I read this move as: OpenAI scared, no way to make money with similar product, so acqui-hire the creator to keep him busy. I'd love to be wrong, but the blog post sounds like all the standard promis

Love the idea, discussed doing something similar with a friend around the late 2000s but never did. Hate to say it, but the concept needs to be gamified and turned into an app. This is the only way you’re gonna get the average citizen today

It looks nice but nothing groundbreaking. If you hadn’t told me Jony Ive did it, I wouldn’t have ever known or thought it was unique.

If my 12-year-old painted that, I would call a priest for an exorcism.

Absolutely not.

This is great. I just need: easy way to track sets/reps, ability to save specific workouts, and charts would be fantastic. I also find the little animations some apps provide to be a helpful reference for form, but that's a nice-t

LOL. Is this working from a prompt to make up a fictitious sin? Because if what it's telling me is true...

Someone build an LLM confessional site where a human user acts as the priest and an LLM joins the chat to confess its sins.

Seems odd to me that there would be one short, powerful jet of a natural explanation. Why hasn’t this thing been outgassing like crazy the whole time?

At last, they've come for Two Minute Papers.

I also use AI to do discrete, well-defined tasks so I can keep an eye on things before they go astray. But I thought there are lots of agentic systems that loop back and ask for approval every few steps, or after every agent does its piece.

Yeah, I think this would work well generally, not just for kids. And ADHD folks in particular.

• I didn't say there's a line between "tech people" and "art people". Why would there be? • We're having this discussion because people are trying to equate an auto-amalgamation/auto-generation machin

Skill is nature's way of gatekeeping. If you're too lazy to put effort into learning how to create an art so you can adequately express yourself, why should some technology do all the work for you, and why should anyone want to he

People love to be snobs about pop music, but it's music. A particular piece of art isn't "soulless" just because it didn't move you. There were still plenty of humans involved in making it, who made specific artisti

This is similar to what I do. There are all kinds of useful ways to incorporate AI into the music production process. It should be treated like a collaborative partner, or any other tool/plugin. It shouldn't be a magic button that

The innovator's dilemma is real. IMO none of the big DAWs are well-positioned to capitalize on AI, but that doesn't mean they couldn't. I'd argue music generation is different from image or code generation. It's clo

Suno is moving toward becoming a browser-based DAW that happens to use AI. There are already more capable and established DAWs, and I see no reason they can't implement AI into their workflows-- in a more precise manner, where it'

What a dystopian and depressing outlook on the valuation and enjoyment of art. Truly hope you're an anomaly.

Side note, but does anyone else have this thought process when faced with yearly subscription vs lifetime purchase? 1. If I buy a subscription and end up not using it, I've wasted money. 2. If I buy a subscription and end up using it,

A project management layer is a huge missing piece in AI coding right now. Proper scoping, documentation, management, etc is essential to getting good results. The people who are having the most success with “vibe coding” have figured this

Oh, to be new to Zen again. That lovely honeymoon phase. Give it a few weeks/months. Bugs, random UI changes, odd development priorities. I wanted to love it, I really did.

Related, just as a heads up. I've been using this for 100% local offline transcription for a while, works well: https://github.com/pluja/whishper
