Also I’ve been told I should share that Claude and I worked on this on the road yesterday

One can imagine a world where every iOS app developer has their own slightly different version of Apple's model

Fine-Tuning Apple's New Foundation Model Building a Golden Gate-Obsessed AI Assistant

New blog post on my experiments with Apple's new foundation model

I tried to make Apple's lil' model act like Golden Gate Claude collisions.substack.com/p/fine-tunin...

another drop in the bucket, bit by bit, the collective unconscious updates it's model of the world and the future

Built an app for funzies today

Like Replit, Glitch (UGC app hosting and remixing) was seemingly in the perfect position for an explosion of amateur code

But radicalized against the tech from the top down

hmm, one has to wonder how this might have played out if they embraced AI codegen

Anil on AI in 2023 and 2025

They were well ahead of the competition well ahead of this presidency

"the way I see it, if you're going to build a time machine into a car, why not do it with some style?"

antinatalism, or: “what if my depression could be an ideology?”

Jobs program for James Earl Jones impersonators. Uber or DoorDash but for pretending to be Darth Vader in a game of Fortnite

Picked up a few comic books for my birthday last week

Hickman's Secret Wars was pretty solid, excited for the MCU movie take on it in a few years

But WOW Brian Michael Bendis's Daredevil run is so so good, already like 40%+ through the omnibus collection

Happy Speed Racer day!

I know we'll be celebrating this evening

The harm section on page 15 is pretty unconvincing. Strongest point is that Meta could have paid them, but there’s not a solid case that the actual download/training harmed authors

How? People aren’t recreating their novels just because the models were trained on them?

There’s a lot of media in my backlog

Each day I’m a little more open to getting UBI and hanging out with my daughter all the time

I bet Claude and o3 can write good-enough COBOL

I don’t understand why journalists would be on Bluesky

More pleasurable to engage with trolls from the other side than scolds from your own

men want one thing and it’s disgusting

What do people mean when they say “nobody asked for” AI

Oh yeah Apple Intelligence will make me a daily user 🙄

Rebuilt an iPod mini I got for free on Facebook

Always wanted one growing up. In sixth grade I’d pay this kid Cullen $1 to use his on the bus ride home

Another facet of using these tools that puts demands on the user: using them to learn or work faster while still always asking yourself, “could it know this?”

Parts coming Wednesday to rebuild a 4th gen iPod I got for free on Facebook Marketplace

nights and weekends side project

Prior eras we compare to didn't have social media

You need new tactics
