If anyoneโ€™s to blame, itโ€™s us for believing OpenAi could do a good naming strategy.

I read this as โ€œHoly shit container, queries are cool.โ€

a) Iโ€™m going to start using โ€œholy shit container!โ€

b) a holy shit container would be a terrible thing in real life.

I deleted and tried to re-download it. Not itโ€™s saying โ€œNot foundโ€. Could be an Overcast caching issue though? ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

@brianmc.bsky.social thereโ€™s a problem with the episode today. Thereโ€™s two versions of the podcast playing at the same time!

Search LibGen, the Pirated-Books Database That Meta Used to Train AI Millions of books and scientific papers are captured in the collectionโ€™s current iteration.

@brianmc.bsky.social youโ€™ve probably already done this, but: www.theatlantic.com/technology/a...

I can see you in there!

Apple and Google Are So Back The famous frenemies seems awfully aligned again...

@mgsiegler.com so, in the world of search Google have gone from paying Apple a boatload of money every year, to getting paid (presumably handsomely) by Apple for providing a search LLM. Not bad! spyglass.org/apple-and-go... @mgsiegler.com

That could end badly. I can see the TechCrunch story: โ€œDad orders Uber Horse for his 3 kids, enters school as destination, but their last known location is galloping somewhere along the coast.โ€

The dangers of autonomous vehicles, I guess.

Been refreshing and logging out and back into ChatGPT since the GPT-5 announcement.

Just opened my Mac this morning and the Mac app has it! Web and mobile are still back in the stone ages.

Can we determine how good a model is based on how precarious and in-danger the pelican looks?

I still think Nolan would have made for a better director to pick up the Bond franchise. For one, he could have used his fascination with time to figure out how we go back in time, undead Bond, and start again - maybe in the 60s again.

@briancasel.com that's a pretty good result!

โ€œThatโ€™s good, but I still understand line 31. Make it even *more* legacy.โ€

Wait, what was the first and last line of my post?

I uploaded a PDF into the ChatGPT Mac app, and it confidently summarised the doc. But every single word was made up, based solely on the doc's title.

Then I tried again with the ChatGPT web version and get back "No text could be extracted from this file."

Which makes much more sense.

Be aware!

Good strategy, when you realise you need to focus your efforts on picking the next Bond!

Micro eggs?

I should have bought a truck-load of eggs last year. Theyโ€™d be worth a fortune now!

Thereโ€™s now nothing stopping Jeff Bezos becoming the next Bond. Surely that was his plan all along!

I muted โ€œtrumpโ€ and โ€œmuskโ€ on Bluesky, so at least here I have a small relief from the real world.
