I do a lot of work synthesizing information. Much of fundraising is taking what exists in the world and connecting the dots of how a person or institution and their philanthropy aligns with an organization's goals and values. This involves a lot of reading and listening and sorting data. It's tempting to use LLMs to outsource this work, because that's what the hype machine says it can do! But it cannot *actually* do this reliably.

Routinely tasking LLMs with summarizing non-important, non-private information, it becomes obvious that there is nothing valuable for me to offload here. You cannot depend on these things without accepting that what they produce is at best, distorted, at worst, completely fake.

I guess that's fine for some — the *appearance* of work, of depth, and trustworthiness is all that matters! — but not for me.

台灣朋友說想來日本自駕旅行,讓我回想起在日本各個縣開車的經驗。
最近特別有印象是三重縣,發現大家喜歡跟車很近耶。高速公路上車輛就四五輛一坨,不曉得是不是當成公路單車要減低風阻來省油。
我個人經驗島根縣跟秋田縣都對租車(租賃車輛牌照不同)滿容忍的。就算開錯車道當地人大多會讓我臨時切回去。

当時パソコンは別の名前で呼ばれていたけど、この後「ペストが来ないように」という意味で「ペスこん」と呼ばれるようになり、時代とともに発音が変わって「パソコン」になったんですよね​:sitteta:​​:blobcat_uwu:

誰のためのブラウザー? オープンAI「Atlas」が残念な理由
technologyreview.jp/s/371418/i
> むしろ私が強く感じたのは、AtlasはオープンAIで働いている人以外にはほとんど意味のないものであり、ソフトウェアの仮面を被った単なる冷笑主義に過ぎないということである。

「ソフトウェアの仮面を被った単なる冷笑主義」ってすげえ表現だな

📣 attention developers and champions 🚨

The Social Web Devroom at just announced a call for participation, inviting people to submit proposals for talks:

🔗 : socialwebfoundation.org/2025/1

This year's edition (its first) was absolutely EPIC. I got to meet so many Fediverse makers, champions and instance admins.

The 2026 edition will have a new 50 minute talk format... and 10 hours of programming (instead of 5 this year).

Check out the link and submit your idea 😊

불확실한 상황에서 성장하는 나만의 힘

4. 실패는 배움의 과정이다
5. 스스로를 믿는 용기를 가진다
