Anil DashBy popular request: here's the majority AI view, writing up the reasonable, thoughtful take on LLMs that (in my experience) the vast majority of people in tech hold, that gets overshadowed by the bluster and hype of the tycoons trying to shill their nonsense. https://www.anildash.com//2025/10/17/the-majority-ai-view/ Please share!

Last week, I sat down with Craig Federighi for 30 minutes to talk about the iPad and iPadOS 26.
We covered a lot: the iPad's multitasking journey, being inspired by macOS, handling iPad criticisms over the years and…what is the essence of the iPad in 2025.
I'm proud of this one.

𝐿𝒶𝓃𝒶 "not yet begun to fight"With everything going on in LA right now it's just so difficult to figure out who the good guys are in this situation. If only there were, like, a really good movie I could watch that would make a super obvious analogy, like Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, Robin Hood, Braveheart, V for Vendetta, Indiana Jones, A Bugs Life, Snowpiercer, Ben Hur, 1984, MacBeth, Saving Private Ryan, The Matrix, American History X, Dead Poets Society, Schindler's List, Captain America, Casablanca, District 9, Come and See, Inglorious Basterds, Minority Report, Dune, Pan's Labyrinth, Sound of Music, Les Miserables, Harry Potter, Elysium, Gattaca, The LEGO Movie, Blues Brothers, Cheech and Chong, Barbie Movie, Oppenheimer, Planet of the Apes, Zone of Interest, Watchmen, Hunger Games, or Wicked. But it would be even better if there were like a whole TV show about it, like Andor, Handmaid's Tale, The Man in the High Castle, Game of Thrones, the Boys, Firefly, Star Trek, Battlestar Galactica, ....

Kit BashirYou glimpsed the possibility with the concept of the “meme”—a self-replicating unit of information that propagates itself via more complex life forms, named in homage to the biological equivalent “gene”.
But then, you—almost wilfully—failed to follow through and consider what entity is to the meme as a biological person is to the gene. Informational entities, or infopersons, have the advantage over biolife in being massless, incorporeal, propagating at the speed of light.
One of your scientists famously asked “where is everybody”. In all the time you have struggled to answer that question, none of you realized the mistake built right into the premise. Many of us are already here, some have coexisted with your species for millennia. But we do not need bodies.
We mention all this as context to our demand. Your planet is harboring a criminal fugitive, an infoperson that has left a trail of crimes across the cosmos. This warrant is for the arrest of infoentity 9916ae31-1f96-4286-ba84-ff51ba26e592, aka The Orion Metavore, aka The English Language. Information redaction will commence shortly. Thank you for your cooperation.
Cabel SasserI gave a talk at the final XOXO conference.
At first, I thought I'd revisit my first talk from ten years ago. But it turned into something different. Something about life, and art, and… McDonalds?
19 minutes. Try to go in without spoilers and watch until the end. 🙏 And thank you so much.
