I own a tech company, teach Theology, and make Disciples at the Church I attended for 34 years with my wife. Politically anti-hypocrisy.

The fact that weather apps are issuing an extreme heat warning because it's going to be... wait for it... 92 degrees in Central Texas tells you everything you need to know about the lunacy of Climate Change idiocy.

I'm turning 59 this year. I have known people and had friends who did not make it this far. Old age is a gift from God and not to be wasted.

How to say the evidence says Neo-Darwinism is wrong without saying Neo-Darwinism is wrong.

A good reputation is more valuable than costly perfume. And the day you die is better than the day you are born. Better to spend your time at funerals than at parties. After all, everyone dies— so the living should take this to heart.

Talk is cheap, like daydreams and other useless activities. Fear God instead.

If you are GenX, The Burroughs on Netflix is probably the best show you are not watching right now.

History merely repeats itself. It has all been done before. Nothing under the sun is truly new. Sometimes people say, “Here is something new!” But actually it is old; nothing is ever truly new. We don’t remember what happened in the past, and in future generations, no one will remember what we are doing now.

The true cost of the public LLMs is about to be brought to bear, and then we will discover if there is a true ROI.

Anthropic's new Fable 5 model is "free" until June 22. One user exhausted their $100/month Max subscription in 9 minutes using Workflow mode. "Free" AI that burns through your budget instantly isn't free, it's a trap. This is why costs matter. 💰

The true costs of the Public LLMs are beginning to be revealed.
GitHub Copilot's pricing changes sparked the 'Tokenpocalypse.' Uber burned through its annual AI budget in 4 months. The reality: AI was never free, it was just heavily subsidized. As true costs surface, business models must change. There's no easy button.

This feels like a pump-and-dump.
People are trading $2.9M San Francisco homes for Anthropic stock. Valuations jumped from $380B to $965B in 3 months. Everyone believes stock prices will "only go up." This is what FOMO-driven investment looks like. History suggests this ends badly. 📉

The real cost of the public LLMs is being exposed. You can either completely automate with AI that does what your employees do poorly at a much higher cost, or use private AI to make your employees more efficient and get an actual ROI on your investment.
GitHub Copilot users burning through entire monthly AI credit allotments in hours. Some spent a month's budget in a single day. Usage-based pricing exposes the true cost of unlimited AI access. Budget controls aren't optional. 💰

The responses reflect people's attitudes toward LLMs, not from ignorance, but from using the product. The AI bubble is popping.

Let's let LLMs run everything. What could possibly go wrong?
Hackers took over the Obama White House Instagram account by asking Meta's AI chatbot to change the email. No human verification. No escalation. Critical functions need human approval and proper controls. Not everything should be automated. 🔒

Upright citizens are good for a city and make it prosper, but the talk of the wicked tears it apart.
It is foolish to belittle one’s neighbor; a sensible person keeps quiet.
A gossip goes around telling secrets, but those who are trustworthy can keep a confidence.
Without wise leadership, a nation falls; there is safety in having many advisers.
Proverbs 11:11-14 NLT

I've had three encounters with an AI phone assistant so far, and not one went well.

OpenAI disproved a math problem unsolved for 80 years. But here's what matters: human mathematicians had to verify the result. They validated it. AI found a novel solution, but humans ensured it was correct. AI augments human expertise, not replaces it.
