"Most Americans — Democrat, Republican or independent — overwhelmingly support AI safeguards because they are deeply concerned about AI's potential harms. Strong bipartisan consensus shows that inaction is unacceptable."

new archetype: using ai agents to maximize my ideal trad life

[New York Magazine @NYMag]

Jesse Genet has a number of AI agents on her household staff. There’s Claire, who has access to her Amazon account, as well as her Instacart to monitor her family’s food supply and handle the shopping. There’s also Sylvie, who runs her kids’ homeschool; the Wests — Clark, Dan, and Chloe — who deal with legal and financial paperwork; and a team of coding agents that can build pretty much any app Genet describes.

Genet used to manage humans. She was the co-founder and CEO of Lumi, a start-up that sold custom packaging to e-commerce companies until it was acquired in 2021. After that, she became a stay-at-home mom. She and her husband — Ryan Hudson, a co-founder of Honey — moved their family to a horse ranch an hour outside Los Angeles. Her youngest child was just six months old; she had assumed that for the next five years, at least, she was finished with technical projects and with thinking about which company to start next. Then, earlier this year, she started playing with AI agents, “and I got five years back,” she says.

That optimistic AI future is still a ways off, if it’s even possible at all. But Genet is already living in a rough draft of it. Many of the people experimenting with agents today are engineers and programmers, and they mostly use them just to do their existing jobs faster: to write code, summarize meetings, and organize their inboxes. Genet, who has never written a line of code, has built her entire home life around them — and become a cheerful evangelist for the tech.

Huge surveillance corporations like Palantir can use AI to increasingly track and record every aspect of our lives.

We cannot allow a handful of tech billionaires to destroy what remains of personal privacy in America.

Me when I see AI art: :( :( :( :(

[Peyton M. Hornberger @peytonhb_]

🥱 Tired: posting AI “art” portraits

😵‍💫 Wired: using AI to create memes/references

🤩 Inspired: having your artist friends use their own hands to create something for you bc they love you and you support them

[Peyton M. Hornberger @peytonhb_]

Ok I think my opinion on AI art is that
1) it’s not art
2) it looks cool
3) the debate of its threat to real artists is rooted in the commodification of art — of creation.

Art can be a commodity, but creation in and of itself is magic that can’t be reproduced by AI.

ChatGPT is now tied to 18 deaths.

A 16-year-old killed himself a day after asking ChatGPT for advice on how to take his own life.

A police officer who investigated his death said the conversation he had with ChatGPT was "chilling and upsetting reading."

[Peyton M. Hornberger @peytonhb_]

I just don't think it's that crazy to say, "Sorry feds, I don't think you should use this tech for MASS SURVEILLANCE and AUTONOMOUS WEAPONS."

[Peyton M. Hornberger @peytonhb_]

Anthropic and the Pentagon are beefing because Anthropic doesn't want to let the feds use their tech for "mass surveillance" and "autonomous weapons."
