Sorta odd at this point that the national emblem hasn't been changed from the bald eagle to the golden eagle. Sorta feels like that'd be fitting.

An unexpectedly stress-reducing use of Codex/Code is just fixing problems with my various Windows machines: weird driver issues, game incompatibilities, even just tiny stuff that used to annoy me (why does the program that I set to run at startup not run at startup?). Hours saved. Annoying hours.

This is another reason why I think it would be interesting if games hardware froze for a while. If you're not dependent on selling new hardware - if you're just growing a unified install base - the economics of growth look different.

Tim Dawson@ironicaccount.bsky.social · 2mo ago

the problem with the games industry is that it makes money in a sustainable way by creating stuff that people want to pay for this is in contrast to how big capital would prefer to make money, by trying to scale fake numbers to infinity using gambler brained investors lured in by impossible claims

I wonder what it would be like if game hardware actually froze for an extended period – which isn't necessarily out of the question given AI's demand for compute and memory. If the hardware were locked for...a decade. How would that change resource allocation? What sort of games would get created?

I know that not everyone following me is supportive of AI. I'm not here to be a cheerleader – there are broad societal issues that need addressing. For the work I've done and probably will continue to do, it's here to stay. When I post about it, I try be practical, and in line with my values.

If you're still figuring out how to work with AI - if you feel a disconnect between how you use it and how others talk about it, or if you feel like you spend too much time babysitting and want more autonomy - try out these tools. They're lightweight (compared to other workflows) and impactful.

In my ideal AI workflow, I assign work and then walk away from the computer. I wrote up how two tools - a tracker for agent tasks, and an inbox for human tasks - are the foundation of how I work. They're not limited to coding work, either. aac.social/posts/two-tr...

It is weird that there is still a substantial set of people who believe "AI is mostly hype" at this stage: Five Eyes is warning about AI, exponential revenue & token use at the AI labs, unit distance/Erdos proofs, and so on... There are many real issues with AI, not being real is not one of them.

The Jetsons lied to us

Frankly if all of our monuments started oozing slime it would feel no less heavy-handed than any of the other plot points from the last decade.

"The Americans can't get the slime out of their capital's monument pool and will arrest you for touching it," sounds like the sort of lie they'd tell us in the Soviet Union so we'd stop bitching about bread lines.
