Yes, it is. Sort of. I’m running an experiment. A few days ago I flagged a piece someone else had written with ai. It has a specific cadence and some typical patterns. But many people seemed to buy it before I commented. I was surprised. To

The piece was deeply thought-provoking, but I struggled to get through it sensing how much AI was used to write it. I’ve been drafting a manuscript for a novel lately, trying to see how well llms can help. I recognize this prose immediately

Thanks! I’ll look into these. Thought it was simpler lookup of metadata, but these seem like robust offerings that make sense for even more protection.

I have a side project that uses Twilio. Probably going to have to face this dragon at some point and go down the same risk assessment. What values for Twilio line type intel do you block? (or equivalent values if you don't use Twilio)

of course - but aren't there valid voip users out there? or should we just consider all voip users as not worth serving?

The visual system is so subjective[1]. Even cultural differences, prior expectations, and our environment can impact “what we see.” 1: https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal...

I just submitted my first big open source contribution to the OpenAI agents SDK for JS. Every word except the issue I opened was done by AI. On the flip side, I’m preparing to open source a project I made for a serializable state machine wi

They also discontinued the screenshot / recording tool I used. Buggy and slow. But it integrated well. Are they just thrashing around at this point without vision? Most of what I’ve seen launch from them has been… undercooked.

That's ironic. I think local MCPs are an auth nightmare. Just think of all those plaintext auth tokens sitting in well-known locations on your machine. It's a black hat dream. We'll see, but I think commercial use of local MC

I think MCP has legs well beyond just the LLM / agent world. Just like USB went from "how I connect my mouse" to "how I charge my beard trimmer." In fact, I imagine it's going to go full-duplex with all our sys

This is 100% a problem with the MCP spec: it does not currently provide a way to narrow what tools, and therefore context, flow into the LLM. I don't really think there's an easy solution at the protocol level, since you can'

Perhaps the difference is that you’ve been fortunate enough to never need Airbnb support to help you on something serious. When things go well, it’s amazing. When things go poorly, you realize how anti-guest the policies and support team be

You’re right. It’s all part of the natural business cycle, it seems. As the power shifts to the employees, it becomes possible for employees to reduce output with impunity. Employers don’t have much choice, since you can barely fill the pos
