I strongly believe there are entire companies right now under heavy AI psychosis and its impossible to have rational conversations about it with them. I can't name any specific people because they include personal friends I deeply respect, but I worry about how this plays out.

I lived through the great MTBF vs MTTR (mean-time-between-failure vs. mean-time-to-recovery) reckoning of infrastructure during the transition to cloud and cloud automation. All those arguments are rearing their ugly heads again but now its... the whole software development industry (maybe the whole world, really).

It's frightening, because the psychosis folks operate under an almost absolute "MTTR is all you need" mentality: "its fine to ship bugs because the agents will fix them so quickly and at a scale humans can't do!" We learned in infrastructure that MTTR is great but you can't yeet resilient systems entirely.

The main issue is I don't even know how to bring this up to people I know personally, because bringing this topic up leads to immediately dismissals like "no no, it has full test coverage" or "bug reports are going down" or something, which just don't paint the whole picture.

We already learned this lesson once in infrastructure: you can automate yourself into a very resilient catastrophe machine. Systems can appear healthy by local metrics while globally becoming incomprehensible. Bug reports can go down while latent risk explodes. Test coverage can rise while semantic understanding falls. Changes happens so fast that nobody notices the underlying architecture decaying.

I worry.

If you are using @dropbox and do not want 3rd party AI technology partners to have access to your dropbox files, flip this switch (on by default, or did I agree to this somewhere?) (web->account->settings-3rd party AI) /cc @EU_EDPS

The most clearest and crisp explanation, I've ever heard, of how large language models compress and capture a "world-model" in their weights simply by learning to predict the next word accurately.

Furthermore, how the raw power of these base models can then be tamed by teaching them to follow instructions from humans.

Χθες η Ολλανδή υπ.Άμυνας Ank Bijleveld πόσταρε φωτογραφία από την τηλεδιάσκεψη των υπ.Άμυνας της ΕΕ. Στην εικόνα ήταν εμφανές το meeting ID και 5 από τα 6 ψηφία του PIN. Ο δημοσιογράφος Daniël Verlaan δοκίμασε τα ψηφία που έλλειπαν και... κατάφερε να συνδεθεί. Αυτά δε γίνονται!

For the longest time, I've been afraid to speak up about my story with App Review, fearing I'd put my popular app at risk. I've now decided that being transparent and sharing my experience to help others is worth it, so here it goes:👇
