Cool. Instacartโ€™s recommended recipes are all AI generated. My latest recโ€ฆ Rice. Ingredients: Rice.

These followed by the banger recipes: Rice with Butter and Peanut Butter on Rice Cakes.

These are not recipes. These are ingredients. The bar has dropped so low for any excuse to cut jobs.

We just added over 40 tools to the Searchcraft #MCP server. For those running self-managed integrations, you can now configure Searchcraft with tools like #Claude Desktop. Let's build! ๐Ÿš€ github.com/searchcraft-...

If your content or post tells me something "isn't about [blank], it's about [blank]," then you didn't use your own voice and you're doing the bare minimum. You probably also happen to be saying this while telling me your business is different or better in some way. ๐Ÿคฆ

Did I mention @donmackinnon.dev's way overly polished #PHP client for our search tools yet? If you write PHP, this doesnโ€™t make your PHP project modern, but itโ€™ll help you fake it.

JK. Just try it out and if you feel kindness in your heart, smash that โญ.

I'm dreading the day that #ChatGPT is woo'd by the semicolon and dumps the emdash. I like writing; I love my semicolon. Please don't take this from me, GPT. Don't force me to write differently just to prove I'm human.

Stop pronouncing it DOGE like we're 16th century Venetians addressing the duke.

Start calling it Dodgy.

dodgy /dลjโ€ฒฤ“/
adjective

Evasive; shifty.
Unsound, unstable, and unreliable.
So risky as to require very deft handling.

I mean, IT'S RIGHT THERE.

Stop using generative AI as a search engine Sometimes ChatGPT spits out something original โ€”ย and wrong, like fake presidential pardons.

@charpie.us raised this piece to my attention and it reinforces a sentiment that I have expressed. AI is a useful tool but it works best when paired with knowledge and capability to discern if it's factual or not. Its better as a transformer than a source of truth www.theverge.com/2024/12/5/24...
