Claude makes things unnecessarily complicated. Information overload is a real thing. Unfortunately, the models are incentivized to pump you full of information you cannot process.

@mareni_musashi 🤣🤣🤣

[Roy Naquin @RoyNaquin]

@mareni_musashi But have you said Thank You to Claude?

[Roy Naquin @RoyNaquin]

@CalvinGrunewald Many coordinator roles only want to hop on a group call, ask what everyone is working on, summarize, and send an email or slack. They cannot do real work themselves i.e. research, writing, diagramming, design, etc. managers need to have skills.

@kimmonismus Claude also ended my session a few weeks ago after I insulted it.

@p_millerd People have stopped peopling. Today on in my Tokyo neighborhood I spoke to a Russian guy I’ve seen a few times. Said he’s been here six months and I’m the first person to talk to him in public.

What do you think is creating this social behavior?

[Roy Naquin @RoyNaquin]

@mareni_musashi If he’s still pivoting after 7 years it might be time for change. I left a startup after 2. Cofounder kept going for ~10 years. He finally hung it up and moved to a service business and is doing well. Don’t jump in the quicksand with him. Give him a stick to pull himself up.

@p_millerd “Slop has no story.”

My 11 year old daughter has been with me for the last 3 weeks and is addicted to Roald Dahl books. She’s probably read 10 of them during that time.

I asked why she likes them and she says “Because the story is good.”

Additionally, in my experience you retain very little of the information provided by Claude because it is incentivized to overload you. If you want to learn about a complex subject pick up a book. Read it, take notes, write them. Anthropic is selling you “artificial perception” not real intelligence.

[Roy Naquin @RoyNaquin]

@trq212 Save your money, folks. Anthropic employees have massive token allowances that cost them nothing personally.

You don’t have that luxury. NotebookLM has similar functionality built into its learning tools.

Get outside today. Do something physical. Step away from the algorithm and experience something real.

@fedesimio Seriously looking at the list of products acquired by BendingSpoons and cannot imagine using them in the current environment. Each of them had early traction and unique value. Now they all seem to be clinging to life. Seems like a public rollup valuation boost bet.

[Roy Naquin @RoyNaquin]

@KenWattana Even worse with Anthropic peeps.

[Roy Naquin @RoyNaquin]

Can’t believe you are promoting this. This is absolutely the last thing that any sane person needs in theory life. We are witnessing the erosion of human expertise and the rise of artificial perception.

Pretty soon people will not be able to tell what’s real. Critical thinking skills are declining at an alarming rate

@danshipper Love this video. One thing on the decision making process. Does outsourcing the process to AI reduce ownership and accountability? AI saying “here is what you ‘might’ want” is different than “here is what I believe and expect.”

Weight management tip for your travel in the Philippines. Drink the water.

It’s boiling in Cebu City. This morning, I’ve seen two Muslim couples… same pattern. The woman is head to toe in full burqa. The man is wearing shorts and a t-shirt. Just an observation 🤔
