Fascinating discussion.

#CreativeAI is the epitome of exponential technology. Not only because of the level of details and overall quality of the images from 2022 Dall-E, Midjourney and Stable Diffusion (compared with 2021 AI-images), but also, and maybe more importantly, because the creative processes involved are now accessible to anyone with an internet connection (and a few buck to spend if they want to create more than a handful of images).

"MacAskill, however, could find nothing wrong with it." "When he met friends at the pub, he ordered only a glass of water, which he then refilled with a can of two-per-cent lager he’d bought on the corner"

Well, in the second case he could not find anything wrong with his own behavior (using deceit to defraud the pub owner of using his facility), so I won't put much value in his first finding or lack thereof.

Interesting. That said, the word "risk" is missing. Fundamental aspect of tech/project/program management - IMHO a good framework should include that!

Agreed it looks very well put together - but I'm a bit turned down by the lack of clear authorship information ;(

Great stuff thanks a lot

Had a somehow similar experience with Strava. I am biking these days only to commute - so doing the same boring 15km urban route 2, 4 or 6 times a week (Returns). Each time my performance would be driven by the weather, my load (public library books weight a ton), fatigue state after a long word day or a poor night, traffic, roadwork etc...not by my training consistency or motivation. Yet the app would keep notifying me of new records beaten each time to keep me engaged by shortening time after time the distances measured,resorting down to timing every single "one block long" segment between traffic lights, stop signs or various landmarks to find new records to beat :(

"your best time is now 41sec (instead of 42 2 years earlier)" -> that's when I stopped completely using it.

"The leavers classifier detects messages that explicitly express intent to leave the organization, which is an early signal that may put the organization at risk of malicious or inadvertent data exfiltration upon departure". In other words "how to promote and encourage paranoid behaviors from employers" :(

I work as an independent consultant. Few months ago, just starting, one prospective client (through their CFO/COO suggested is shaved 33% of my quoted daily rate. I offered a $50 discount instead on the daily rate because i had heard the CEO on a podcast and I was interested to learn more about their company. We verbally agreed on a daily rate and a weekly 1 day commitment. At week 5 client tells me they'll pay only 2 of the almost 4 days I had done already cause "they thought the report after the 2 first days was all what was due" BS :(.

1. I should have seen it coming - entitled dude took on himself to get the 33% discount he thought he deserved. 2. It sucked. I spent some time since writing some agreement template and will slowly roll them out with new clients.
