Decided to try Claude by revisiting a malware analysis project that I originally presented at @objective_see in 2021: the CIA's OS X implant called Green Lambert. It's amazing what you can do with a terminal and ~15 min of free time these days.

“Anthropic’s artificial-intelligence tool Claude was used in the U.S. military’s operation to capture former Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, highlighting how AI models are gaining traction in the Pentagon, according to people familiar with the matter… The deployment of Claude occurred through...

A new Bitcoin biopic starring Casey Affleck will use AI to generate locations and subtly tweak performances. Hollywood isn’t just writing about crypto anymore — it’s producing films with AI in the creative loop. The real disruption may not be on Wall...

I've tested 90+ checkout flows. Here's the pattern: Checkouts I made 'simple and clean' converted at 4%. Checkouts I added urgency and scarcity to converted at 11%. Your minimalism doesn't matter. Psychology does. Test everything. Trust nothing.
A popup should offer one clear win, not “join my newsletter.” Nobody wakes up craving newsletters.
We should have a class of drugs you can only sell to people over 70 —super aggro longevity stuff, muscle regeneration, etc - tolerate more possible bad side effects given you don’t have much time left for effects to manifest...

Perfection is getting cheaper. AI makes everything smoother. Cleaner. Flawless. But I’m noticing something. The more perfect things look, the more I value the imperfect ones. Machines polish. Humans leave fingerprints. And fingerprints matter. So here’s my question: When everything is perfect… will imperfection become the new luxury? #AI #Creativity #Humanity #Innovation #FutureOfWork
Am judging @hackwithtrees Stanford sama’s takes on: - the literal first day of OpenAI - “if you’re a sophomore, you’ll graduate to a world with AGI” - why @MattPRD’s Moltbook matters - what you should work on inspiring in how down to earth it...
Eventually, as a result of the context limitations of AI agents, we’ll start to change and improve our work practices to aid in their success. One of the most interesting issues with AI agents is because of their inherently limited...

As agents do more coding, I notice more whiteboarding and design work around the office. https://t.co/KN15rGA0pw
AI value doesn't live in slideware or labs. It shows up when agents are embedded in day-to-day work, governed like core systems, and held to the same standards as any critical operation. #AgenticAI #EnterpriseAI https://t.co/VtuS5rQ0ZG
NASA had literally three years after Artemis I to work on, and improve the SLS rocket ground systems. The annual budget for SLS "Ground Support Equipment" is around $650 million. It's completely unacceptable.
But this is such treachery. Doesn’t our govt understand pandemic threats? New waves of zoonotic flu, SARS-3 coronavirus; arboviruses from climate change; bioweapons from our enemies: Russia, DPRK, Iran; return of measles, pertussis, soon polio. What’s going on? Exclusive: Key US...
Yikes. NASA couldn’t even complete a test of the SLS rocket’s ground system seal for liquid hydrogen because something else broke with the ground systems. And they wait until 8 pm ET Friday to send an update on something they...

If you feel like you’re drowning, check what you’re tracking. Sometimes the metric is the problem.
AI won’t replace people, but people who use AI will replace those who don’t. 👥 At the #CiscoAISummit, leaders discussed how 70% of code is now AI-generated, but human judgment remains "priceless." The CIO's job is now as much about culture...

AI companies should go back to doing focus groups on their messaging. It’s all currently in-group optimized. Even the “positive” message: “a data center full of geniuses” is at best is meaningless to most people.
Even for people working at AI companies, every now and then, the acceleration hits you hard and it gets a little dizzying.
"Ship fast and break things" must not apply to AI agents with access to customer data or production workflows. My checklist explains how to balance speed with responsible releases. #AI #DevOps #CIO https://t.co/1tg10UmJNv
The Proton launch of Russia's Elektro-L No. 5 weather satellite carried a secondary payload, Iran's Jam-e Jam 1 television broadcasting sat, also called Iran-DBS. Elektro-L-5 has a mass of 2120 kg; Jam-e Jam 1 is likely only 150 kg...

The best CTAs don't sound like CTAs. "Submit." No one in the history of the internet has been excited to "submit." "Buy now" vs. "I need this" "Subscribe" vs. "Count me in" "Learn more" vs. "Show me how it works" Generic CTAs describe the action. Great CTAs...

Most portfolios fail because they stop at “model accuracy.” A good AI/DS portfolio has: 1. A model that predicts something the business can act on 2. An AI agent that turns outputs into next steps It's that simple. Want help?
