Sunday morning at the airport Time to evaluate sessions for Agentic Coding Con in Berlin
Preparing my stomach for the next week in Orlando! 🤪 See you soon at @droidcon.bsky.social USA I might speak about sth with AI 🤖
Working with coding agents is not replacing your junior (or more). At least I never worked with a junior who was so convinced that THIS TIME they found the error, although it's attempt no. 30 already! But this time for real! It was obvious! Pinky promise!

I remember this coming out, wasn't that just yesterday? 🤣
Siri AI won’t be available in the EU because to comply with the Digital Markets Act’s interoperability rules they would need to make it easy to replace Siri AI with ChatGPT or Claude. Apple asked for an exemption instead and EU regulators said no. So no Siri AI for European users.
EU Says Decision Not to Launch Siri AI in Europe Is Apple's Alone

Anthropic will collect all prompts and the output generated by Mythos class models such as Fable and store them for 30 days. This is meant to better detect abuses of their terms of service. Microsoft has held off on adopting Fable due to this data collection and I expect many others will as well.
