Atlassian decided to vomit AI all over Jira so I decided to mop it up with uBlock Origin. So far so good.

<p>Google is so sneaky. This prompt inside Gmail gives you three options. The two most visible options (number 1 is &#x27;Try it now&#x27; and number 2 is &#x27;Continue&#x27;) basically mean &#x27;Enable Gemini AI to write emails.&#x27; The third option cancels it which is hidden well. Google, you could do better than this. This is a perfect example of a dark pattern. For those who want AI to write basic emails can enable it but there is not need to do this kind of &quot;shady&quot; stuff.</p><p><a href="/tags/ai/" rel="tag">#ai</a> <a href="/tags/privacy/" rel="tag">#privacy</a></p>

Software &quot;agents&quot; were a hype-y topic when I was a graduate student 25 years ago. I wrote one for a class. I feel like what&#x27;s being called &quot;agents&quot; or &quot;AI agents&quot; these days are even less capable than what seemed possible a quarter of a century (1) ago when I was in school.<br><br>What I thought then is still true today: to make something like a software agent legitimately useful for a lot of people would require a large amount of low-level grunt work and non-technical work (2) of the sort that the typical Silicon Valley company is unwilling to do. (3) The technology is the absolute easiest part of this task. Throwing a Bigger Computer at the problem leaves all those other pieces of work undone. It&#x27;s like putting a bigger engine in a car with no wheels, hoping that&#x27;ll make the car go.<br><br>By the way <a href="/tags/ai/" rel="tag">#AI</a> companies and VCs, I&#x27;m available for contract work and have done due diligence research before if you ever want to stop wasting everyone&#x27;s time and money!<br><br><a href="/tags/ai/" rel="tag">#AI</a> <a href="/tags/genai/" rel="tag">#GenAI</a> <a href="/tags/generativeai/" rel="tag">#GenerativeAI</a> <a href="/tags/llm/" rel="tag">#LLM</a> <a href="/tags/agents/" rel="tag">#agents</a> <a href="/tags/hype/" rel="tag">#hype</a> <a href="/tags/siliconvalley/" rel="tag">#SiliconValley</a> <a href="/tags/venturecapital/" rel="tag">#VentureCapital</a> <a href="/tags/dev/" rel="tag">#dev</a> <a href="/tags/tech/" rel="tag">#tech</a><br><br>(1) Which we&#x27;ve been told repeatedly is essentially infinite time in the tech world.<br>(2) Establishing semantic data standards and convincing a large enough number of people to implement them being an important component. LLMs do not magically develop protocols and solve all the ETL-style problems of translating among different ones. The Semantic Web didn&#x27;t really stick for a lot of reasons, but one reason is that it&#x27;s hard!<br>(3) Back when I was still in the startup world I was asked several times by VCs to tell them what I thought about some new startup that claimed to be able to magically clean and fuse data. I think they&#x27;re still very keen on investing in this style of magic, because it requires an intense amount of human labor, but I think where companies landed was invisibilizing low-paid workers in other countries and pretending a computer did the work they did. Which has also been happening for well over a quarter of a century.<br>

Definitely read this whole thread about the eBook manager calibre adding AI slop to &quot;chat with books&quot;, and why that&#x27;s a horrible move that immediately destroys trust in calibre. Here are some highlights I especially appreciated:<br><p>Here, Calibre, in one release, went from a tool readers can use to, well, read, to a tool that fundamentally views books as textureless content, no more than the information contained within them. Anything about presentation, form, perspective, voice, is irrelevant to that view. Books are no longer art, they&#x27;re ingots of tin to be melted down.<br></p><p>It is completely irrelevant to me whether this new slopware is opt-in or opt-out. Its mere presence and endorsement fundamentally undermines that stance, that it is good, actually, if readers and authors can exist in relationship to each other without also being under the control of a extractive mindset that sees books as mere vehicles, unimportant as artistic works in and of themselves.<br></p><a href="https://wandering.shop/@xgranade/115671289658145064" rel="nofollow" class="ellipsis" title="wandering.shop/@xgranade/115671289658145064"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">wandering.shop/@xgranade/11567</span><span class="invisible">1289658145064</span></a><br><br><a href="/tags/ai/" rel="tag">#AI</a> <a href="/tags/genai/" rel="tag">#GenAI</a> <a href="/tags/generativeai/" rel="tag">#GenerativeAI</a> <a href="/tags/llms/" rel="tag">#LLMs</a> <a href="/tags/ebooks/" rel="tag">#eBooks</a> <a href="/tags/ebookmanager/" rel="tag">#eBookManager</a> <a href="/tags/calibre/" rel="tag">#calibre</a> <a href="/tags/aislop/" rel="tag">#AISlop</a><br>
