Humans don’t recall, we compress. Thousands of moments become a vibe: trustworthy, family, stranger. That’s intuition. Fast, lossy, powerful.

LLMs aren’t there yet.

Imagine meeting someone and the only way to know who they are is replaying every moment of your life until you find a match. Horrible, right? That’s basically how LLMs do it.

Confused by that AGI chart showing LLMs still suck at “memory”?

ChatGPT has memory, sure. But pulling stored facts ≠ human memory.

Seeing so many Trump voters be like “but the wolf told us that he wouldn’t eat the sheep when we employed him as sheep herder!”

One thing the TikTok ban discourse has not included is that many TikTok creators privately do not like TikTok, which of course they’re not saying because none of us want it banned.

It’s a brutal creative ecosystem that extracts from creators until they burnout and then they are replaced.

Damn, I always joke I only spoke on 6 continents so far because it turns out that penguins aren’t the best audience for my talks 😅 great achievement!

I guess I’ll have a lil more space in my bookshelf again now that I’ll get rid of anything written by Neil Gaiman, including the beautiful Sandman collector editions.

Can’t agree more - is there a good alternative though? Was curious about that for a while, all other large aggregation wikis seem to have the same bad behavior

I’m at this point in my life where I’m so frustrated about the current state of web development that I’d rather write everything from scratch each time than to bother with bundling, transpiling, vdom etc. preserves my mental health.

That would go so hard.. oh man

Alright this hit me

It’s kinda hard to tune it initially, I’m definitely not there yet..

It me

Oh man. Seems like a perfect match for Karat (credit card for creators), have you considered asking them?

Checks out

Alright, I’ve finally given up on X. Here goes nothing!

I’ll be geeking out about creators, fandom, new tech, games, film and culture here. Follow if that’s your jam :)
