On the flip side, I do think we should also hold companies more accountable for this. We collectively prevented companies from advertising tobacco to minors through regulation with a pretty massive success rate. These companies know how harmful social media can be on youth, and there is little to no effective regulation around how children learn about these platforms and get enticed into them.

Machines lower the marginal cost of performing a cognitive task for humans, it can be extremely useful and high leverage to off load certain decisions to machines. I think it's reasonable to ask a machine to decide when machine context is higher and outcome is de-risked.

Human leverage of AGI comes down to good judgement, but that too is not uniformly applied.

The documentation from Supabase lists development environment examples for connecting MCP servers to AI Coding assistants. I would never allow that same MCP server to be connected to production environment without the above security measures in place, but it's likely fine for development environment with dummy data. It's not clear to me that Supabase was implying any production use cases with their MCP support, so I'm not sure I agree with the severity of this security concern.

The back-and-forth over σ²’s and growth exponents feels like theatrics that bury the actual debate.

Devices support attestation level A display (green or grey check marks in your call logs designate this). If you haven't seen that check mark, then you probably haven't seen many A-level attested calls to your device. As far as device manufacturers go, they only care about A-level attestation, which makes sense as it has full traceback capability.

The 13 year old driver was not released and will remain in jail until his trial.

QA is still extremely valuable in any software that has long deployment lead times. Mobile apps, On-Prem solutions, anything that cannot be deployed or rolled back within minutes can benefit from a dedicated QA team that can manage the risk appropriately.

"The order finds that Impact Theory encouraged potential investors to view the purchase of a Founder’s Key as an investment into the business, stating that investors would profit from their purchases if Impact Theory was successful in its efforts."

When I purchase a baseball card, I do not have the expectation that there is any additional value attached to the baseball card beyond what the collector's market will pay.

I don't think you can leverage AI in Hollywood for profit on blockbusters without highly trained artists in the mix. It is possible that it could impact the long-tail of b-movies out there, but I think audiences will be able to see through this. I don't know how sabotage will work in this case either.

The FCC is taking a firmer stand and threatening those that support robocalls all the way down the chain. All CPaaS providers need to do a better job managing their customer vetting processes.
