Really enjoyed reading your perspective. I am a recent math PhD graduate, and I also find it both exciting and terrifying to see what AI is doing to the field of math.

I used AI to help write the article, but the ideas and the technical perspective are mine. This wasn't made wholesale. I've been working on creating an MCP server for DynamoDB, and have been thinking a lot about how much better AI works with SQL than without it. Considering how many people use DynamoDB, it surprises me that there aren't better ways to get AI to interact with it. Just wondering if other people feel the same way.

Are there actually people out there who have never played “modern board games”? Maybe I’m just surrounded by nerds, but I don’t think these games are very niche. If someone I know hasn’t played board games like these, then it’s usually because they don’t have the attention span or don’t enjoy the strategy, not because they don’t realize board games exist.

I read this article assuming the title was clickbait, but no, that pretty much sums up the whole article. “Let’s solve the AI takeover using eugenics!” If even Elon musk and the Chinese government claim the solution is immoral, then all we really have is a second problem on our hands.

Trade school seems to be looking more and more valuable these days. I feel bad for young people who are going to a 4 year university and gaining debt for a career that might not exist in 5 years. Being a plumber might not seem glamorous, but we're a long way off from AI learning to fix your toilet.

Interesting post. I'm notoriously bad at noticing the common characteristics in AI writing, but once they were pointed out, I realized I've been seeing them everywhere in websites.

Cool article. Did a very good job explaining things simply and providing good diagrams.

I have a hard time imagining that universal medicaid would ever become reality. A more realistic goal might be making the premium tax credit more accessible or lessening the restrictions to qualify. That way, more people could afford marketplace health insurance.

Can't even imagine what it's like to live in Europe. Just casually going on a walk and finding a coin that is over 2 millennia old. Just another Tuesday.
