Kwan Wei Kevin Tan, reporting for Business Insider five months ago:
Dario Amodei, the CEO of the AI startup Anthropic, said on Monday that AI, and not software developers, could be writing all of the code in our software in a year.

Complete bullshit, but, I guess he still has one month to go. (Via Dave Winer on Threads.)

Five-minute short film from Apple, about people with severe hand tremors from Parkinson’s disease using the iPhone’s Action mode to shoot steady video — including filmmaker Brett Harvey, who was diagnosed at the way-too-young age of 37. There’s also a brief short with Harvey explaining the settings to shoot in Action mode by default, or to use voice controls to avoid needing to tap buttons.
Apple at its very best. If this doesn’t hit you, you’re not hooked up right.

r/ChatGPTPro: What is the most profitable thing you have done with ChatGPT?
This Reddit thread - with 279 replies - offers a neat targeted insight into the kinds of things people are using ChatGPT for.Lots of variety here but two themes that stood out for me were ChatGPT for written negotiation - insurance claims, breaking rental leases - and ChatGPT for career and business advice.
