@kevinroose.comThe NYT Magazine asked me and @caseynewton.bsky.social to open their AI issue by talking about how we use AI, why it's not going away, and how you can't be a serious critic if you're in denial about how useful it is. Bluesky's gonna love this one!
@kevinroose.comlol
@kevinroose.comwow what a shill
@kevinroose.comIt's Hard Fork Friday! This week on the show:

@kevinroose.comhe actually told me to publish it specifically at the worst possible time, he's always doing that
@kevinroose.comoccasionally! but it's hard, so i do bad work instead
@kevinroose.comi think you missed the part of the article where i (the editor of the new york times, also the CEO of anthropic) called for only robots to have rights. read the room emily!!!
@kevinroose.comthe story is actually about anthropic, a different company than openai. hope that helps.
@kevinroose.comno not really
@kevinroose.comhe's been on!
@kevinroose.comhank, i fear you have mistaken this website for a place to talk about AI. this is a place to yell at AI until it goes away.
@kevinroose.comhow dare you jerry. think of the people with no ability to fight unusually sized animals at all. do better.
@kevinroose.comI agree that you, personally, should resist the impulse to write about this stuff! 💪
@kevinroose.comMy new column is drawing rave reviews like “go fuck yourself,” “die, loser” and more! Take a look and add yours to the pile!
@kevinroose.comSome news: I'm writing a book about AGI! This has been a while in the making, very excited to front-burner it for a while. I think what's happening in AI today is the most important and exciting story in the world, bar none, and I can't imagine a richer topic to write hundreds of pages about.

@kevinroose.comI spent a week testing Operator, OpenAI's new AI agent that can browse the web and take actions on your behalf. It ordered me dog food, booked a haircut, took online surveys for cash, and more.
Spooky stuff! Even spookier: it registered me for a LinkedIn webinar.
