Having a bit of fun upgrading to the Qwen 3.5 family of models. They're very "thoughtful" but also pretty sharp. I will find uses for them.

These airport supply cartels have made it so you can't buy any locally sourced spring water. Only purified or stuff that's been shipped from another continent.

Trade secrets and AI Join us for a discussion on navigating the intersection of trade secrets and emerging AI technologies in today’s marketplace.

Speaking on a panel at USPTO today: "Navigating the intersection of trade secrets and artificial intelligence developments". Always fun to be the outsider voice in the room.

Why is black and white the default color scheme for AI chat? (Anthropic exempted here, obvs). Give me a little useful color, please.

It was an honor to speak about the important work that @wikipedia.org editors do to keep knowledge free and trustworthy!

It is as if AI enthusiasm is causing proponents to forget (and therefore need to relearn the hard way) all of the lessons of the history of computing.

IBM slide, 1979. 

A computer can never be held accountable

Therefore a computer must never make a management decision

I am finding this talk of AI agents as digital employees to be more than a little specious. These agents are tools for work. They cannot be held accountable. Human operators must be held accountable for everything that is done by the agents they deploy. Full stop.
