"When we think of AI agents, we shouldn’t anthropomorphize, treating them as conscious beings with their own will. They are (software) machines, developed by people working in corps. While the agents’ behaviour aren’t explicitly programmed, they are nurtured with the values of their creators." 🎯

Anthropic wants Claude to analyze your bank account and financial data
Anthropic is testing a new personal finance feature called "Claude Money" that will allow you to connect your bank accounts directly to Claude and "understand your money."

Sure, history is full of great examples of "self-policing" and how self-regulation worked 😜🫠
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 5d agoMike Johnson on OpenAI and Anthropic: "They can self-police. They can self-regulate."
"Generating code is largely solved, but building great software remains a mystery to most." @imjacobclark.bsky.social
Generative AI is dangerous to humans, not in the Asimovian way the Anthropic creeps are carping on about, but in the way that it is literally poisoning our air and water www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Trump says every adult American will get $5,000 if Republicans win midterms
Speaking at a party convention, the US president gave no details on how the plan would work or where the money would come from.

🤮 There should really be more awareness and resistance to overeager data collection (if possible). People should fall back to the "I've got nothing to hide"!

It was great fun seeing friends from the local community and participating again at @devopsdaysgraz.bsky.social 🚀 #DevOpsDays Another awesome event @patkoch.bsky.social and the team 👏
I wonder why people having trouble disconnecting from #AI use and they feel there is always something else to work on (e.g. code), also stems from the fact how major vendors are billing for it. So you have time based usage limits which are resetting every few hours 🙃

On the new #AI coding hype and following any idea: "There's an intense state where people think anything can be build, but reality is that most ideas probably aren't worth building" 😜 youtu.be/GEkoGCFpY8c?... Coding those is much easier now, but old barrier to entry was actually a good refiner.
