So there's been a lot of talk in AI circles about Jevons Paradox and @hankgreen.bsky.social has one of the best explainers of it I've seen (including that it's not a paradox), but I want to add something to it. Towards the end of the video, Hank says... www.youtube.com/watch?v=a6sY...

I've got used so much with a MacBook that I've had the expectation of a Lenovo ThinkPad to continue working when I've hit the power button. On Windows if you do that the laptop goes to Sleep. You cannot change the operation to do a computer Lock. @microsoft.com can you add a "Lock" option? Kthxbye
Sources and leaks from Amazon, Adobe, Atlassian, Citi, and more show what is really happening with AI right now: companies are trying to reign in AI use as costs spiral out of control.

At unsloth.ai/docs/basics/... we learn how to run Claude Code with a local AI. Below you have Qt Creator 20 using Claude Code in the Terminal directly, or via an ACP Agent. I have added the "TheQtCompanyRnD/agent-skills". @unsloth.ai the documentation is missing the ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN!

People saying "AI is a powerful multiplier" are rightfully vindicated - it's definitively a RAM price multiplier.
If we removed the explicit and implicit subsidies (around 7-8 trillion US Dollars a year) for fossil fuels, we'd keep global temperatures below 2 degrees plus (says the IMF).We might even save some corals. We're still funding the destruction of paradise. www.imf.org/en/topic...

Qt Creator 20 and local AI
Explore how to run a local AI agent in Qt Creator 20 using ACP. Learn how local LLMs like Gemma 4 offer privacy and cost-savings over cloud providers.

Are there software licenses that prohibit AI training and perhaps even using the code in projects that use AI agents and LLMs? Asking for a friend. But seriously, that could be a great way to secure developer jobs esp if it would in place before LLMs got trained on all our open sourced code
Purchase with Purpose@purchase-w-purpose.bsky.social Β· 2mo agoMillions of copyrighted songs were fed to AI music generators - now there's proof Suno and rivals are being sued for $150k per song. A sum that would bankrupt these companies and set an important precedent.
Europe has already cut its energy bill by 29% but nobody talks about it. EU energy use in 2024: 854 Mtoe. Without efficiency gains since 2000 it would have been ~1,103 Mtoe. That's energy nobody had to generate, import or pay for. New policy brief out today π www.janrosenow.com/uploads/4/7/...
