[Socket @SocketSecurity]

🚨 The popular PyPI package lightning has been compromised in a supply chain attack.

Socket detected malicious code in versions 2.6.2 and 2.6.3 that executes automatically on import, downloads Bun, and runs an 11 MB obfuscated JavaScript payload designed to steal credentials.

This appears to be connected to yesterday's mini Shai-Hulud attack, but we're still investigating. #Python

Our investigation has revealed that the incident originated from a third-party AI tool with hundreds of users whose Google Workspace OAuth app was compromised.

We recommend that Google Workspace Administrators check for usage of this app immediately. https://t.co/MNxfGOcch9

This is Aki. He just realized how to unify Einstein's general relativity theory with quantum mechanics to solve the black hole information paradox, but then remembered he's supposed to be a dog. 13/10

A teenager from Iran sent me these videos with this message:
“I was terrified while filming them. Please share them and show the world that we, the people of Iran, do not want this regime.”

The protests in Iran began in Tehran and are now spreading to cities across the country.

NEW: Raccoon gets drunk at an ABC liquor store in Ashland, Virginia, and passes out in the bathroom.

Hanover County Animal Protection says the raccoon "ransacked" the store before passing out next to the toilet.

"Officer Martin safely secured our masked bandit and transported him back to the shelter to sober up before questioning," Hanover County Animal Protection and Shelter said in a statement.

"After a few hours of sleep and zero signs of injury (other than maybe a hangover and poor life choices), he was safely released back to the wild, hopefully having learned that breaking and entering is not the answer."

The death of the average.

We are currently witnessing the total collapse of the marginal cost of creation. Copywriting, design, video editing - skills that previously commanded a premium due to the barrier of technical execution are being democratised to the point of irrelevance.

Most marketers view this through the lens of efficiency. They see a tool that allows them to produce 10x the output for 1/10th of the cost.

When the supply of "good enough" content becomes infinite, the economic value of that content plummets to zero. We are entering an era of infinite noise. If you think it is hard to capture attention now, wait until the internet is flooded with billions of synthetically generated articles, tweets, and videos every single day.

(Which is already happening, just not at the quality and volume that it will in 6, 12 months from now)

In this environment, pure volume is no longer a valid strategy. You cannot out-publish a server farm.

The alpha in modern marketing is shifting entirely from production to provenance.

[1] The Trust Premium

As the internet becomes increasingly synthetic, we will see a massive flight to safety. "Is this real?" will become the single most important buying criterion.

We are moving away from algorithm-optimisation and back towards human-optimisation. Personal brands, founders-led sales, and verified human voices will command an exorbitant premium.

The faceless corporate brand is dead. If a consumer cannot verify the human source behind the message, they will subconsciously label it as "spam".

[2] High-Friction Marketing

For the last decade, the goal was "low friction". SEO, programmatic ads, automated email sequences.

As AI cannibalises these low-friction channels, - bots clicking on ads served by bots on sites written by bots - the smart money will move to high-friction channels.

Live events. Physical mail. Handshakes. Closed-door dinners.

The harder it is to scale, the more valuable it becomes. You prove your value by doing things that cannot be automated.

[3] Taste as a Moat

Large Language Models function by predicting the next most likely token. By definition, they regress to the mean. They give you the average of the entire internet.

If you use AI to guide your strategy, you are opting for mediocrity at scale.

"Taste" - the human ability to curate, to select the outlier, to understand nuance and subtext - becomes the only defensible moat.

The future of marketing is about who has the taste to know what *not* to create.

Paradoxically, the more artificial the world becomes, the higher the premium on being undeniably human.
