A minister went live on national television, visibly excited that he had finally found a “gotcha moment” against ordinary Ghanaians. Why? Because a draft bill was published on the ministry’s official website, then quietly revised four different times through closed-door meetings without properly communicating any of those changes to the public. After that, he confidently says:
“The old bill is dead. You people are online criticizing a dead bill. You don’t have the updated bill.” As if secrecy, poor communication, and public confusion are achievements. You are pushing 15 digital bills that will affect millions of citizens, businesses, creators, and young people, yet the public engagement has been chaotic from the beginning. Instead of transparency, accountability, and respect, citizens are being mocked on live TV for reacting to the only version they were officially given access to. Leadership is not a game of catching citizens off guard. If people are confused, the failure is in communication, not in the public asking questions. This is not it. Ghana is failing us.

Replying to @samgeorgegh
Leadership is not about speaking down to people and calling it wisdom. A truly God-fearing leader listens, reflects, and understands that authority is a responsibility entrusted by the people not a crown to rule over them. You had an opportunity to engage the people with understanding and respect, yet many felt dismissed instead. History has repeatedly shown that leaders who stop listening eventually lose touch with the very people they were chosen to serve. Ghanaians do not want laws imposed on them without meaningful engagement. We want leadership that listens before it lectures, leadership that serves before it demands obedience. Very disappointed.

They just came to thrown dust into our eyes
Now you all understand why NITA postponed the Space, took the hosting from Nana B, and hosted it themselves. It was simply to give Sam George enough time to convince the public that the bill is somehow good for them before it goes to Parliament. Then they gave chances to about 3 to 5 people they know, who started praising Sam George for his work, and eventually they shut the Space down. So in the end, the whole Space was pointless.

Despite a very full plate, I have been needled by a Ghanaian business journo friend of mine based in NYC to have a go at the debate that has taken Ghana's tech community by storm: the draft NITA bill. My short essay effectively aligns with what everyone else is saying: shred the bill and come back with something more aligned with modern tech reality! But in the tradition of the Scarab, I try to go into a bit more detail than most mainstream pieces. I also point out something that seems missing in the debate. With the rapid surge of technologies like AI, everyone is or will soon be doing stuff previously considered "ICT professional stuff." Licensing ICT professionals is akin to licensing bloggers in today's rowdy information environment: trying to stop a hurricane by blowing fumes from one's mouth. brightsimons.com/2026/05/the…

Or even in negative time
Honestly why stop at 100x engineer? Just use more agents, you literally could be 1000x, 10000x, 100000x just by scaling You could what you use to in an entire year in one second

Wise words. The laziness and delusion must stop
You might believe you should spend less time thinking about code because of AI. I strongly disagree! We’re watching this play out live where tons of AI generated code becomes a liability. At the end of the day, an engineer needs to be responsible / on call for code that gets shipped to production. If you don’t understand the system you’re trying to debug, you’re probably going to have a bad time. Yes, AI can help with all of this, if you set up the proper systems. You can have agents triage prod logs, look at errors, etc. You can speed up parts of the investigation, but an engineer needs to make the call. There might be serious customer or financial implications from that change. I expect the trend continue for trimming dependencies, vendoring code so you can modify it directly, preferring simpler systems with fewer abstractions, and spending waaaay more time thinking about system design and code maintenance. I’ve said this before, but it’s a great time to get familiar with CS fundamentals and some of the history behind what great software looks like. Many parts will be different in the coming years as AI progresses, but also a lot more than people realize will stay the same.

I’ve been trying to find good analogies for this. The argument seems to be: “AI is intelligent because it does intelligent-like things, therefore it is cope to say it’s not intelligent.” Some analogies: - “The moon is really bright. Therefore it is capable of luminance.” Here of course we expose a manner of speaking. The moon reflects the sun’s light. The models reflect our own intelligence. The moon will never be a star. - “A snail on the bed of a tow truck is really fast. Look, it’s moving from A to B at 60mph, it’s clearly fast.” But of course the snail is borrowing the truck’s velocity. Notice how there is no controversy in calling the technology large language models because the term is perfectly apt: a map of language. This points to language as constructed by humans as the true source of magic, and LLMs being algorithms that can traverse this map at light speeds. Before you think I’m being pedantic, understand that the nature of the words we use is precisely what’s at stake. That the moon *looks* bright is incontrovertible. Insisting however that the moon itself has any concept of inherent luminance is when you start to gaslight people into deranged realities that they will not stand for. Attempting to appropriate ageless conceptions like consciousness and intelligence to corporate technology by playing axiomatic word games is insanity. Large language models do what they do and this is non-controversial. Personifying it with human-like attributes however is totally uncalled for, when it is easy enough for us to define new words that better capture the phenomenon. I’ve been thinking long and hard about this and I think a good phrase for these technologies can be—hear me out: “large language models”
The “it’s not AGI because machine intelligence is jagged” is dumb cope. It’s obviously AGI. If you had a friend who had a 130 IQ, could write production code flawlessly, could write academic papers of a high research caliber, pass any exam in any field with flying colors, create a sophisticate LBO model, draw technical diagrams perfectly, compose poetry in any language, and could find solutions to significant unsolved mathematical problems, you would call that person a world historical genius. Certainly, no single human has ever had intelligence that “general” before. Now you think it’s “not AGI” because it sometimes slips up and makes mistakes - so does any human that you would consider “extraordinarily intelligent.” The professor might forget a colleagues name that he has known for a decade. He is still considered intelligent. The math genius might be a little autistic and shy, unable to maintain polite conversation. Still intelligent. You might stare at the fridge for 30 seconds unable to find the butter, despite 5 million years of evolution perfecting your visual intelligence. We give intelligent humans a pass when they have jagged intelligence. So why the double standard? The qualities people list as “necessary for AGI” are important traits to have, but no longer pertain to intelligence. People will say things like “true AGI requires agency, long term goal setting, embodiment, self-direct action”. But none of those things are intelligence. Those are “things that humans have that AI lacks”. Raw intelligence, AI has it in spades. That other stuff - important yet, but broader than and different from intelligence. The unwillingness of people to acknowledge that AGI obviously exists and has existed for a while is due to a kind of anthropic chauvinism - a psychological need to believe that humans are superior in every respect, that we possess soft skills that no machine could replicate. Yes humans are different from machines, but if we are limiting the discussion solely to general intelligence, AI has it already. That battle is over. If you want to reframe the discussion to matters of human dignity and personhood, fine, but that’s not an AGI question. That’s something else. Just take the loss on AGI already. It’s over.

Marc Andreessen accidentally told the truth about AI

Marc Andreessen on JRE: AI hasn't replaced coders. It turned them into vampires. "The opportunity cost of going to sleep is too high because if you go to sleep, you won't be with your 20 AI coding agents."

Incentives drive outcomes
Elon Musk: "If you punish people too much for failure, then they will respond accordingly, and the innovation you will get will be very incrementalist Nobody's gonna try anything bold for fear of getting fired or being punished in some way. So risk-reward must be balanced and favor taking bold moves, otherwise it will not happen"

That’s actually funny 🤣🤣
honorable, the portal is currently down. honestly, the coders of the one million coders website should be enrolled into the one million coders initiative because what is this?🤦‍♂️
