You're about to switch out of CS over fake AI layoffs

Big tech used AI as a cover story. They overhired during COVID and needed an excuse to cut

Matt Garman, AWS cloud CEO: replacing junior devs with AI is 'one of the dumbest things I've ever heard'

Sam Altman: "I was wrong" about white collar job losses

Jevons Paradox. Steam engines got more efficient. Britain burned way more coal. Sounds similar?

@MarioNawfal @elonmusk We take accuracy very seriously so we copy unverified story as fast as humanely possible 🤣

@bradmillscan Hey Brad this is a known tracked bug. https://t.co/4yQgyZ3MhC hope this helps : ))

[Paul Wei Jian @datapwj]

@ICannot_Enough @grok fact check the claim that EV is #1 in China

1. The top 5 best-selling EV models in China by unit sales in 2025 or the most recent month available

I want primary sources not secondhand claims. Flag anything you’re uncertain about.

@jun_song this oddly sounds like an 2021 ICO manifesto. Your LLM hardware content has been really good, keep it up 🦾

[Paul Wei Jian @datapwj]

@jun_song I am already 100% going to get a new device if Mac Studio comes out at WWDC. Would you recommend buying an extra 1, given people will likely run local LLM given sharp rise in token cost?

@Zac_Pundi Haven’t been to johor in ages, quite surprise that prices have went up so sharply.. is that 25.6B going into building data centre or something else? 👀

@nicdunz GPT-6 news 6 months early counts as industry research. Respect the full circle moment sir 🫡

[Paul Wei Jian @datapwj]

@elonmusk @whyyoutouzhele 👏 X looks so adorable as well

[Paul Wei Jian @datapwj]

@tetsuoai What did you build on your 1st attempt? 👀

[Paul Wei Jian @datapwj]

@nicdunz That’s fair, even though the AI space is moving fast enough that your blanket rule might not apply in a 6 months time frame maybe even shorter

[Paul Wei Jian @datapwj]

@elonmusk @grok give me the strongest version of Saad’s argument, not the text you find on the back cover. Give me an actual claim a thoughtful person would have to engage before dismissing it. If there’s not enough public information available online search for discussion on X / Reddit

just finished a Claude Code podcast on the drive home, noticed @Rasmic kept hammering one thing:

↳ use the askuserquestion tool,
↳ let claude interview you,
↳ build feature by feature with a proper PRD

that's what separates good output from AI slop

if writing the spec doesn't start to feel annoying, you're not thinking hard enough

while everybody's one-shot prompting their way to apps, low key the real bet is NOT taking the path of least resistance

@WatcherGuru What’s slopdome interception rate? 😂 the last I saw iron dome had quite a high interception rate

@hata_david Malaysia Boleh but does H&M t-shirt still shrink after 1 wash lol. Stopped buying 10 years ago

[Paul Wei Jian @datapwj]

@jun_song Same game plan, have been holding off my purchase for LLM hardware for far too long

[Paul Wei Jian @datapwj]

@jun_song Yeah already watching this happen in real time. Data analyst cutting report prep time from 3 hours to 30 mins

[Paul Wei Jian @datapwj]

@MKBHD One sec has been doing this for year, research shows 57% reduction in opens. Excited to see how this feature hold up 👀
