I don’t think we humans are necessarily better at performing the zero-tolerance-for-error type of tasks but it is true that our preference is clearly for those tasks being done by humans, not machines. The Q of what that means to us isn’t an ideological one.
+1 to the idea of “scaling down” the computing infrastructure and what that can mean, as long as it is pursued for more sustainability and more responsible computing (not just for the sake of austerity and doming more with less)! #cnifall25
@scottjenson thank you!
If more humans start speaking AI language, doesn’t that make AI language just another variation of human language? AI slop or kitsch normalized?
“This is just what the world sounds like now. This is how everything has chosen to speak. … A recent study from the Max Planck Institute for Human Development found that A.I. language is increasingly coming out of human mouths.“

@scottjenson That would be great. The approach in this manifesto is interesting to me, in that it tries to create/find "resonance" via/in technology (rather than nature) through hyper-personalization (that AI may enable). The prospect of establishing technology established again as a *tool* to meet/speak to human needs in its proper sense (=techne) would be exciting.
@scottjenson Thx for sharing this! I would want to know more about "Adaptable" and "Prosocial" as principles and how they would be incorporated in actual software products. Also any examples of the tooling and infrastructure that will enable resonant products and ecosystems by any chance?
@ink I like the practical approach too, especially about in what contexts the new feature may empower or diminish people in what they are trying to achieve. The answer seems never straightforward though!
