AI
I think about AI a lot, and I write about it here. Predictions, the human side of the equation, corporate absurdity, and why most of what people believe about AI's future is probably wrong.
In "Predicting the AI Future," I look at how TIME and The New York Times predicted in the 1960s that machines would make us all independently wealthy by 2000, working 4-day weeks with 218 days off a year. We know how that turned out. I use that as a starting point for thinking about where AI is actually headed.
"The Human Skills That Make Us Irreplaceable in the Age of AI" came from a talk I gave to students from 40+ countries. The question everyone asks is what AI can't do. I tried to give an honest answer.
"OpenAI Announces $1.5 Billion Bonus for Every Employee" paints a picture: imagine you joined OpenAI as an engineer two years ago. The numbers are staggering, and the implications go beyond just compensation.
"Trying to Poach AI Engineers" starts with the Wayne Gretzky quote everyone knows but applies it to the hiring war that's reshaping tech. With 5 posts and growing, this is where I work through what AI means for all of us.
