My Artificial Cognition trilogy is now available for free. I began writing the first book a decade ago (2016) and completed the last two in 2023. The process of writing was an aid to understanding the development of today's AI. Insights in these books have stood the test of time and offer powerful metaphors for understanding today's AI and its future evolution. Feel free to have your daily AI driver ingest them for additional insight!

We had a wonderful time chiseling that code by hand. We are no longer programmers, but makers of things. What a privilege it was to be on both sides of that chasm.
DHH is probably one of the top software artisans of the past decade. Hearing him speak with this much conviction and transparency about one of the most polarizing topics in software right now, writing code by hand vs. with AI, is something pretty much every software engineer should hear a few times. Especially those still on the wrong side of history.

I feel the same way as a book writer. (also been a programmer too)

When the history of the singularity is written, I wonder what we’ll settle on as the start date. AlexNet? AlphaGo vs Lee Sedol? Vaswani et al.? November 2022?

GPT-3 ... that model is approximately the same size as models that are quite competent today. It just needed more "experiences"

Do you feel the AGI yet?!
How do you explain recursion? This one is pretty fun. I had Claude Opus 5.5 make: "A video explaining recursion, where every explanation about recursion has a radically different video style, make this self-referential & clever & fast moving." Nine genre shifts, one prompt...

I overlooked that this AI discussion was elevated before the UN Security Council! Very serious stuff indeed.
🚨BREAKING: Sam Altman, Dario Amodei and Clément Delangue just addressed the UN Security Council about the future of AI. First time in history the builders briefed world leaders directly. Watch their full 20-minute interventions 🎥👇 (0:00) — Sam Altman (OpenAI) (09:30) — Dario Amodei (Anthropic) (14:40) - Clément Delangue (Hugging Face)

This is true. People like you keep it alive and moving forward. It's a wild and dangerous time in history. It's also has the most potential to be absolutely amazing. And one of the things that gives me hope is that this is also the one time in history when the individual has more power to change the world than ever before.

We are approaching a world of infinite abundance, yet we are starting wars for no good reasons why. If there's anything to be paused, it's the warfare (and not the technology that will end all war).

This theater is just so weird to watch. They are literally building this to far surpass their own intellect and yet they still think they are going to control it. The combination of hubris and flat-out stupidity is stunning.

At least conversations are happening. A few years back, there were none!

24 senior mathematicians met at Harvard and agreed on something big: A PhD should no longer be awarded mainly on the dissertation text. Their reason is that AI can now help write it. They want in-person, written, and oral exams instead. Personally, as someone with a PhD, I think the defense should have been the real test all along. Anyone can polish a document. terrytao.wordpress.com/2026/…

But does this not favor someone who can think fast on their feet? Are PhDs supposed to be granted to people who can perform like excellent lawyers?!

Technological stagnation or a culture of scarcity? One could have technological progress but have artificial scarcity almost everywhere.

Yes, it was hard to read, but the DC kids played the situation just perfectly. Friends close, enemies closer.

Are you sure, or are they being outgamed by the labs who are using AI to push their strategy?!

Just insane what Opus 5.5 can conjure up for education! Here you can watch the linear film or you can explore by zooming. Even crazier is that the entire HTML exists as a single 5MB (voice and music included)! claude.ai/artifact/LEuEp6WoE…
