@[email protected] just released #AppsCreator - a prompt-based web-based app / widget creator that Nothing phone users can use to #vibecode mobile widgets & simple apps, and #Playground where the apps can be shared and forked into new apps. Quick. Easy. Fun.
The three Southwest Air ladies who helped me just now are freaking angels.
I reserved the wrong date for my ticket home. When she said my reservation was for March I broke into tears and whispered, My father just died i have to get home.
Immediately two other women came over helping the first lady navigate their system to rebook me. I didn't even ask. One of the women was watching me and also crying and she had to walk away. She whispered to her coworker, This is too much.
There was now a small crowd of southwest folks grabbing my bag, making sure I was on preboard while I was just hunched over, crying quietly. All I could think was how if I fucked this up my sister would never forgive me.
One of the women grabbed my hand and said, We did it. You're rebooked for LA at 1 and you're coming back on Saturday. Don't worry. You're going home.
I could barely thank them. I started to walk away then came back and got their names.

Thank you SO much.
As #GenAI is developed, should we be embedding Isaac Asimov’s “Three Laws of Robotics.” Companies like Anthropic are studying why its chatbot may “intentionally” provide wrong answers to humans.

It’s been an unusually busy couple weeks in #AINews, with #stargate & #DeepSeek getting a lot of attention. I found this Episode of Decoder very helpful to quickly bring me up to date:
DeepSeek, Stargate, and the new AI arms race - Decoder with Nilay Patel https://pca.st/episode/670625bb-4326-4846-842c-3fff7be5f684
Decoder is a show from The Verge about big ideas — and other problems. Verge editor-in-chief Nilay Patel talks to a diverse cast of innovators and policymakers at the frontiers of business and technology to reveal how they’re navigating an ever-changing landscape, what keeps them up at night, and what it all means for our shared future.
Remember to pay attention to messaging in the shows you’re watching. If there isn’t “product placement,” does that mean that media doesn’t have to disclose funding it received? #propaganda
