Seems like the economic premium on IQ is going down, which is unfortunate since one never had to work much for it.

Neat, though:

> I'm a minimalist at heart. I use classic Vim with zero plugins. That means no LSP, no autocomplete, no code formatters, and no AI.

yet the author gives us an AI-written blog post :p

I tend to agree with the post, but narrowly on the hook:

> Do you want to listen to music? Just open a Spotify playlist and let the algorithm figure out what you like. Please ignore the AI slop they will insert in between real songs to avoid paying royalties to real artists.

To be honest, my Spotify recommendation algorithm complaint is about the exact opposite, that it’s too conservative in what it suggests. Sometimes I feel stuck in a musical “echo chamber.”

I hear from this post that recommendation algorithms are too broad, but it seems from policymakers the bigger complaint is again the opposite (“echo chambers” and “rabbit holes.”) Not sure which is more compelling, but they are surely not entirely orthogonal features.

I'm not sure what the primary signatories want, exactly. "No mathematics" safeguards added to frontier models, like the "no cybersecurity or bio" ones that currently ship? That seems like a bleak future. Protectionism like tariffs.

Damn even Nvidia is putting out fully Claude-written articles.

From the post, “and the incentive structures we have built are the experimental apparatus.” That’s a Claude sentence.

Was almost going to praise this article for not overtly sounding like Claude, but then I read this: > and the incentive structures we have built are the experimental apparatus.

So close!
