AI is going to get much cheaper soon!

The BYD moment for GPUs seems to be round the corner?

Three questions for every class in the week: what does it give my child that school does not? What does it cost in hours, travel counted? Would those hours do more as study at home?

The full piece: https://t.co/s8E7qFFlqS

[Samisa Abeysinghe @SamisaA]

A class can explain. It cannot remember for your child.

The remembering is built at home, when the child closes the book and tries to bring the idea back alone. Tuition hopping squeezes exactly those hours.

Count the week. Keep the class you trust. Bring back the time.

Hackers didn’t break Europe’s supermarket freezers. They used the defrost button.

Valid command. Authenticated session. 50°C.

We secured access. We never verified intent.
Now add AI agents.

According to a survey conducted for The Economist, a good feeling about AI is strongly shared by countries outside the rich West. Register for free to discover the reasons for this optimism https://t.co/JgdwJNA4O9

Agents are overrated.
Most of what's sold as agents is scaffolding the model no longer needs.

Anojan is a Tamil. Sinhala people fought for his release tirelessly.

"Tamils don't like Sinhalese" is a wrong statement. I am Tamil and I love my Sinhala brothers and sisters. I am not an exception. If you come to Sri Lanka, you will see how united we are actually on the ground.

Everyone is after Russian oil all the sudden!

8 months building with Claude Code. Then I pointed Kimi at the same repo.

It saw more.

A stranger reads the code. The author reads its own notes about the code.

Same model writing and reviewing = same blind spots, twice.

The writer should never be the only reviewer.

From 2027, Grade 6 students in Sri Lanka will study Entrepreneurship and Financial Literacy. I read the first-term module. It starts with the child, not with money. A timely and valuable move. Now let us bring digital and AI literacy into the classroom too.

Nope. In Sri Lanka I am yet to see the decades old architecture realized
To DX through NDX you got to get your APIM cluster corrected and opened to local developer ecosystem
If you do then the ecosystem will develop the AI agents

Who is accountable when an AI agent working for government breaks the rules? OII DPhil candidate Jonathan Rystrom maps three risks agentic systems pose to the state, along with five principles for keeping humans in charge: https://t.co/PU3xs1O8br

@Forbes Could you please define "some"? (And donn't tell me that is a prompt!)

[Samisa Abeysinghe @SamisaA]

Fior leaders and mentors: you might find the most important takeaway is that the highest-ranked employers are not necessarily those that pay the most. They tend to combine:

Purposeful work,
Growth opportunities,
Fair rewards,
Employee well-being, and
A culture people are proud to recommend.

[Samisa Abeysinghe @SamisaA]

What makes them the best?

The main factors that made companies rank highly were:

Meaningful and engaging work.
Competitive compensation and benefits.
Career advancement opportunities.
Work-life balance.
Training in new technologies and skills.
Strong company reputation.
Employees' willingness to recommend their employer to family and friends.

[Forbes @Forbes]

Forbes has partnered with market research firm Statista for the seventh straight year to evaluate companies around the world and identify those that support their employees by offering meaningful work, top-tier compensation, training in new technologies and more.

To put up a small building in Colombo, you may need clearances from up to 13 outside agencies. Each holds one true fact about the
same land.

The only integration layer is the applicant's feet.

I have drawn a proposal for what should carry that load instead. Link in the reply.

[Samisa Abeysinghe @SamisaA]

This is my proposal. Nothing in it has been validated, adopted or standardised by anyone.

One question for anyone holding a budget: when the model behind your service changes next year, what else has to change with it?
