Microsoft’s security chief says frontier AI models cannot be trusted and the company just launched Guardian Agents to police agents and prevent them going rogue.

This is coming from a company selling AI agents.

They’re now selling protection from the AI agents they and others sell you doing crimes

The Mississippi AG says police are justified for killing a baby because someone thought his mother shoplifted diapers that she paid for.

The police have refused to release body cam footage.

Fuck everything about this story.

Every Republican president since Reagan has tanked the economy, increased the deficit and started a costly war in the Middle East.

When people say Republicans are good for the economy, what they really mean is Republicans lower taxes on the rich.

“There has never been an election since polling began in the United States where voters said corruption was their number one issue. This is the first election that has ever happened in American history.”

This is literally what people voted for. Trump has been the same his whole life.

It’s incredible what now happens in plain sight while the media fails to hold anyone accountable.

We’ve reached the point where the satire is funny until you remember it’s describing reality.

Insurers are introducing exclusions for AI-related losses as AI agents create new risks. Who pays if an employee's rogue agent hacks a site?

Insurance companies may become the most effective AI safety regulators because they can refuse to insure companies that don't take safety seriously.

I use three AI apps regularly and this is what my experience is like daily. I can’t get over how Google seems to have completely fallen behind in AI.

Anthropic published a report on how AI has changed employment at the company.

The share of junior technical hires fell from 27% to 9%. Like everyone else in tech.

Employees are more productive and no one has the time to review the output from Claude. Also like everyone else.

The new normal.

I found it amusing that Anthropic tracks “hours worked by AI agents” as a metric.

This is even sillier than lines of code as a productivity metric.

Why not also count hours worked by cron jobs, database migration scripts and compilers while you’re at it? 🙄

Going back to the Reddit post I shared earlier, this is part of why junior hiring in tech is collapsing.

Why hire someone junior to do work that a senior employee using Claude can complete faster and often better?

It’s short-sighted, but this is how many tech companies are thinking today.

Day two of owning a flying Tesla Roadster.

It is a depressing sign of the times that Marjorie Taylor Greene has come out more forcefully against the Trump administration trying to strip Ilhan Omar of her citizenship than the Democratic Party or any major newspaper.

Amazon launched a $75 AI wristband that listens to your conversations and remembers what you said. It can also recommend products on Amazon based on things you mention.

Apple’s new watches will have similar conversation memory features.

AI remembering everything we say is now a consumer feature.
