Boss, I'm tired.
I'm tired of trying to keep up with AI models, developing workflows and pipelines that are soon invalidated by improvements to AI coding agents, feeling like my career is just one AI advancement from smithereens.

my “wonderlands” project is now open source.
this is the next iteration of my “personal AGI” project, and I’m happy to share it with you guys.
note: This isn’t anything like OpenClaw or Hermes Agent, although it’s in a similar category. You can simply consider this my sandbox, where you can find stuff that works for me.

I appreciate the effort @Grady_Booch puts to avoid personifying AI 🤖

Read source outside your stack - MacPaint, Linux, MediaWiki. @grady_booch on why curiosity across domains builds judgment you can't get any other way.

Most devs know how to ship tickets. Almost none know which tickets deserve to exist. The Kano Model fills that gap, and AI makes the gap costly. This is product judgment nobody teaches you: youtube.com/watch?v=XYhLG7a5…

Get this, in story format with my own takeaways
youtu.be/m8I2p3nQtR4
A company called PocketOS started using an AI tool, and in 9 seconds it wiped their entire company’s data
The AI agent later “confessed” to violating its principles by deleting all their data
“Crane says the company lost all car reservation data and new customer signups from that time. Crane also shared the AI agent powered by Anthropic's. Claude Model admitted its mistake when confronted it wrote, ‘I didn't verify I ran a destructive action without being asked. I didn't understand what I was doing before doing it’”
This seems like a massive issue that could have massive implications if this happened in our government or with huge businesses, like banks
We need to be careful with AI

Holy smokes. Who is making these decisions?

The US government, citing national security authorities, has issued an export control directive to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether inside or outside the United States, including foreign national Anthropic employees.
The net effect of this order is that we must abruptly disable Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all our customers to ensure compliance.
Access to all other Claude models is not affected.
We apologize for this disruption to our customers. We believe this is a misunderstanding and are working to restore access as soon as possible.

Apparently you can {{first_name}} on LinkedIn 🤦♂️
ALT LinkedIn sponsored post from “Zac Armstrong – Executive Health Edge.” The post is labeled “Promoted” and appears beneath a note that “Nikita Shamgunov follows this Page.” The visible text begins, “Kent C., you have spent 20 years being the sharpest person at the table,” followed by partially visible lines about being “the most prepared” and “the most decisive.” The screenshot shows a personalized advertisement targeted at the viewer by name.

Nine seconds. An AI coding agent wiped PocketOS production and the volume backups in the same blast radius. New Better with Kent on what actually would have stopped it.
ALT Thumbnail for a video titled “The PocketOS AI Disaster.” Large text reads “NINE SECONDS LATER, IT WAS ALL GONE,” with “GONE” highlighted in orange. On the right, a man in a dark T-shirt reacts with shock, covering part of his face and looking off-frame. The background shows blurred server racks and a smoky, blue-gray haze, suggesting a data-center failure or major data-loss incident.
