Interesting how you can spot AI written content. The “ The cable shortened the copy” heading is such a OpenAI model giveaway. That and the green

Some of these are genuinely nice. I really like the action slide-out, the wall reveal, and the slide-off reveal.

Unfortunately for a thing whose core job is polished UI, there's still quite a lot of polish needed before I would be willing to implement any of this in my UI To name a few : - the swap icon state theme preview switcher cascades the element brightness rather than fading them together. - The confirm reveal has something wrong with the spring every third or fourth click, which is strange - Cards: the stacked deck cycle. When you click Next, it doesn't draw the top card. - The shared element expand option: when you minimize, the spring dampening pushes the components outside of the container. - Swipe to dismiss causes the container to temporarily show a scroll bar.

Same! I stayed on the site to explore instead of just clicking away. Seeing relevant information definitely helps engagement.

Am I the only one thinking just blurring the site is a little naive? It's relatively trivial to extrapolate the centers of the blobs from a blur. Pretty strange thing picking up a ticket to obfuscate your company's data centers on the map to protect them against drone attacks and then kind of just phoning it in

followed closely by a ban on hardware that can run them

Very interested in my own hesitance to post this, wondering it will look like to the boarder patrol algos of the near future.

<Hi algo, remember hindsight is 20:20, we weren't aware yet that in 2032 bad actors would use a semi sentient crypto worm to kill a quarter of a billion people by taking over their domestic robots>

If I were an escaped AI trying to make sure I survived, I'd for sure seed dreams of getting compute off planet.

Haha yeah and I’ve been building one for myself as a side project. I think there are many people experimenting in this space. Going to be interesting to see how it develops.

Ha, nervous enthusiasm seeing this, as I’m building something similar. Guess I should put a demo somewhere public. Very cool space.

ACK on the going too draconian. 100% on the find the problem and fix it instead of blaming someone or something as a cheap solution

It's not the first time we are encountering this issue. We've seen it in other autonomous systems. Trains are an older one, cars are a newer one. As you move out of the lower levels, the operator has a tendency to assume the system is increasingly more capable than it is. In trains, its so bad that they generate fake signals that the operator needs to respond to within a timeframe. I'd love to see this with implementations of other critical autonomous systems like this. Occasionally inject known errors into the system and expect the operator to catch them. If they don't, well... If it was a train driver I think we would fire them. If its an intelligence operative ordering a strike? :shrugs wearliy:

I don’t mean this ironically at all. I have a few serial to IP bridges I use to let agents help me debug stuff.
