  • If the agency you hired is using AI generated images like this, they are doing you a disservice, over-charging you and doing irreparable damage to your brand.

    The thought of doing that makes us sick at @set.studio, so if you're looking for an agency that actually cares, check us out.

    An AI generated image for Chery of 2 rulers, captioned "Platinum lasts longer. Over 200km longer." 

"We didn't test for the brochure, we tested for the real world."

The problem is, the ruler's measurements are a hodge-podge of random numbers.

  • I think the most pragmatic thing people can do, if they're being mandated to use LLMs, is to unionise.

    If by some miracle the bubble doesn't burst, there will still likely be lots of layoffs so get protecting yourself and your colleagues.

    @ethanmarcotte.com has got the blueprint for you here.

  • I'm convinced that if Bluesky had an option to hide posts with images that have no alt text, it would improve my experience 10,000%

  • something that's always consistent with the replacing writing CSS with framework/paid SaaS squawkers is they don't seem to understand CSS at all which is probably why they think their thing is smarter

  • I think Paul is fundamentally correct that even if AI companies went bust, the tech is here forever.

    What boosters consistently fail to consider though is without the soft touch from the media, without the relentless boosting and without the mandates, is the usage gonna be anything like current? no

    A thread by pfrazee.com

A year ago, I thought LLMs were kind of neat but not that useful. I saw the code autocomplete and thought, meh.

Last summer just flipped. I never ever thought I would see automated code generation like we see now.

I know there’s baggage but you need to know the coders are being real about this

The open source models are good enough that you could tank every foundational company and this still would be happening.

This tech, whatever it is, is here, and I can run it at home

If you don’t see the utility personally, I can get that. If I wasn’t coding I probably wouldn’t either.

If you’re worried about its downsides, join the club. A lot of us are too.

But no matter what your take is, take it seriously. This shit isn’t crypto.

  • The side notes we've added to @piccalil.li are probably my favourite feature at the moment

    Paragraphs read: 

The original idea was to merge WordPress and AT Protocol data into a shared /feed route and then, based on type/source, render in different sections of the site. The music collection will always be treated as its own little ecosystem.

Everything in this pass is idealistic. Now let’s get pragmatic.

The side note reads: 

The [..slug], [...page] and [...did] parts reference Astro dynamic routes.

  • Streeting has gone in way too early with the enthusiasm of a dog with two dicks.

    He’s gonna be firmly exposed with his Mandelson and Thiel relationships as more comes from these Epstein files and I’m really looking forward to watching it all fall apart.

    The find out is coming for him.
