I agree with this. Further, I've started to focus on writing about things that AI cannot write about, like how I experience something or preferences I have. And I've started to consume more content like that, rather than 'kno

The main way I specialize messages at this point is basically 'Am I going to want this later'? If the answer is yes, I use email. If not I use Signal. It's interesting this was the most requested feature... it wouldn't b

Why don't you type 'paracetamol autism' into Google Scholar, too hard for you? "We identified 46 studies for inclusion in our analysis. Of these, 27 studies reported positive associations (significant links to NDDs), 9 s

One way we can choose to apply AI is to re-humanize ourselves and focus less on being machine-like. Over time I think we should adopt a philosophy of using machines for machine work, and refocus ourselves on creativity, judgement and connec

This article is written by AI. The em dashes and 'Don't just X, but Y' logic is a classic ChatGPT writing pattern in particular.

Based on various studies about things like acetaminophen toxicity, effects of screens on nervous system and eye health, effects of eating ultra processed foods, etc. we know that anything that harms kids tends to harm adults, just less acut

I bought 'Full Self Driving' in 2021 and I would not dare to use it on actual roads still. Probably the most money I've ever been scammed before tbh.

Has anyone ever seen a company 'scale effortlessly'? Every version of scale I've been involved in was just constant difficult work involving smart people consuming all of their intellectual cycles.

I like that this establishes prompts as written policy. I do think in a way it should have both engineering and legal review.

Yeah the whole 'just use HEPA' has been what's worked for us after about a half dozen different air purifiers of experimentation. I noticed the positive ionization things changed my heart rate variability which was spooky.

AI is a deflationary technology, sort of like how most of the cost of TVs is the cost of shipping them from where they are made to where they are used. So wouldn't the returns show up in 'less work needs to be done' slowly ov

I am all in cash outside of startup shares. I think it makes sense to be in the market, but compared to 2008, there is way more government fiscal issues, way more concentration of profit growth (e.g. only the top 10 companies have had profi

I connected Gmail to the Mail app on MacOS via IMAP, backed that up to iCloud, and setup my personal custom domain with iCloud Customer Domains. I then forwarded the Gmail to it and deleted all the mail on the Gmail side. I would not go bac
