I still teach from this book. It rules.

Community Perspective - Daniel Rock - AI2050 Rock asks how, and how much, AI technology will impact the many tasks that comprise a given job — each one may be affected to different extents, changing a job in more nuanced ways than completely…

How will AI reshape jobs—not just replace them?

Daniel Rock, 2023 AI2050 Early Career Fellow at Wharton, studies how AI transforms individual tasks within jobs and is building a model to track those shifts.

that's interesting I didn't realize you could still get shingles if you had an attenuated vaccine.

I had chickenpox and then shingles a couple years ago. worst physical pain I've ever had.

“They’re eating… the pets”

gonna drop this platform for a bit. take care everyone.

tbh there's no "best" AI. I think using cursor for scripting with claude code and gemini as terminal options works well right now.

I write spec docs with sonnet 3.7, architectures with gemini, and code with a combo of models. models have different strong suits.

Are you at all concerned about an uprising

Feel like there are a lot of folks on Bluesky who need to read this paper.

Common AI failure mode is to ask it for what you want in the end. One day that’ll be doable generally… only sometimes it works now.

For now ask for code that generates what you want (where applicable).

This is true for training ML models too… learn the DGP then transfer to other target/outcome.

It was always a better platform for building.

One thing I love now is being able to implement papers on my own at low cost.

Yo you’re leading our scrum later right

Yellen would’ve kicked his ass, and everyone would’ve watched.

This is a common phenomenon that's not unique to this site. As a reporter, I post things about antisemitism in America as part of my job. The posts do not mention Israel. I will nonetheless get many reflexive replies saying "anti-Zionism is not antisemitism." These people are telling on themselves.

Full automation of code is a choice, and I don’t think it’s one that’ll be made in most firms. By percentage of code written, sure, machines will dominate. but you know what’s complementary to shitloads of new code? Talented developers.

For those who don't know this story, which I first shared six years ago today....

This one time I got my days wrong at work and ended up alone in a room with my boss and the President of Ireland while I was on ketamine.

My perspective on vibe coding vs real coding

It also strikes me as somewhat bad faith to attack Koch or Arnold here.

I'm a current Harvard graduate student and I found out today that I had my NSF GRFP terminated without notification. I was awarded this individual research fellowship before even choosing Harvard as my graduate school

lol delco pooper

People don’t realize the reason bond ratings matter is that they’re tied to regulations and policies with margining requirements.

You really don’t want the BBB- to BB+ change.

(Handwaving) just build MCPs for every government source.

Shingles is terrible. Get the vaccine… it’s not just a disease older people get.

#econsky What do we know about “Artificial Intelligence, Scientific Discovery, and Product Innovation” and about MIT's investigation of this paper, which apparently led to expulsion of its author? And what should we change in response. /1

Let's talk about these two department store owners: brother and sister Louis Bamberger and Caroline Bamberger Fuld. From Newark, New Jersey.

They are random people, basically. But in the late 1920s, with fascism taking over Europe, they made a choice that profoundly changed the world: 🧵

Overleaf needs another 100 years before you should be allowed to use it

Who is this mathematician and why is he using AI to cheat??
