If children grow up interacting with AI companions, how might that shape the way they understand relationships? In this episode of Lives Well Lived, we speak with Dana Suskind, pediatric surgeon and author of Human Raised. #PeterSinger #DanaSuskind #Podcast #AI #Parenting Related

Their words
I think for me, let's go back to the first principle of intelligence. Intelligence is not sitting there stuck and just seeing something or interpreting something when it comes to space and physical space, right? It's really this uh closing the loop between seeing and experiencing and interaction.

Software engineer at PlanetScale and creator of the vim-go plugin. Writes at arslan.io about Go, tooling, industrial design and books.
I think I’ve realized that GUIs, even though they have much better primitives for displaying all sorts of information and interacting with it, are also very restrictive. There’s usually only one way of doing things in a UI. You either love it or hate it. Which brings me to terminals and multiplexers. When you think about it, a terminal is basically a small GUI builder, letting you create your own environment from small, well-crafted tools that each do one thing well. So it’s no wonder people keep coming back to terminals. Quoting @mitchellh Quick Superlogical demo to end the week. This demo is just of the basic functionality, but I want to highlight just how FAST it is. There's a WHOLE lot more functionality already present and coming but I wanted to keep the demo short. But seriously, check out that speed. I'm showing the macOS app h… Related

Design engineer; formerly at Linear and Vercel; author of Sonner and Vaul; teaches animations.dev.
While I really like prototypes, because you can convey ideas easier by interacting with the real thing, it’s also important to know when not to do them. Prototypes have this flaw that because everything is already built, and it looks so real, people might assume that all the decisions have already been made. That’s because the building step was the most expensive before AI, but it’s not anymore. So sometimes, it’s better to ask the why first. Why are we making this in the first place? Allow yourself to be slow, write a doc with your reasoning, and only after you are aligned, start prototyping… Related

Founding member of OpenAI and former director of AI at Tesla; creator of nanoGPT and the term "vibe coding".
This is a new paradigm for interacting with Claude that is significantly more "inline" with all the other human activity org-wide. Once you do all of the under the hood engineering work to make this "just work" (e.g. across tools, integrations, compute environments, memory, security, etc.), Claude basically joins the team in a seamless way - you can talk to it as you would talk to a person and it can help with a very large variety of workloads. Imo this is the 3rd major redesign of LLM UIUX. The first paradigm was that the LLM is a website you go to, the second was that it is an app you downl… Quoting @claudeai Introducing Claude Tag, a new way for teams to work with Claude. In Slack, Claude joins as a team member with access to the channels and tools you choose. Tag Claude in and delegate tasks to it while you focus on other work. LLMs Anthropic Related

Geneticist at Harvard; reads ancient DNA to work out how populations moved and mixed, and wrote Who We Are and How We Got Here.
Their words
there's as populations become more apart, there begins to be biological incompatibilities rapidly developing, probably as the square of the distance separation, because you need pairs of interacting genes, and therefore it's the square of the separation.

Independent game developer, creator of the colony simulation RimWorld and author of Designing Games: A Guide to Engineering Experiences. Previously worked on BioShock Infinite.
Some games are just harder to design than others. Eg A Paradox-style grand strategy game requires much more design ability to do well than an action platformer. More interacting systems, more situations to think about, longer play times and thus scarcer test feedback. Related

What is a korrent?
A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one
sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at
korrents.com .
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said.
The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in
korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who
else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public
statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.

About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they
do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in
this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the
serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to
quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter,
especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked
article and a belief on korrents.com
are left in their original language.
