I am continually fascinated by how rapidly AI is getting integrated but wonder if we're building a malicious cyberpunk world straight out of a dystopian sci fi novel instead of something better. Given who owns AI, better be ready to turn off the power to the AI server farms.

I am tempted to create a moltbot on my DGX Spark as a sort of "canary in the coal mine" warning system.

Depends who the "we" is that's doing the building, really.

Based on the examples given, you're still task switching, and you're task switching in a worse way.

ALT-TABbing between my mail client, my IDE, my calendar, and my project management interface allows me to go back and forth with little friction--not to mention being able to set them side-by-side. In a linear chat interface, I'm scrolling between them. That seems like a step backward in efficiency: an "enhancement" in the true spirit of Microsoft.

The point is that now the AI can be aware of what's going on in the other apps.

I can see the law suits piling up soon once people let their bot have access to their bank account etc.

It already started last year because of ChatGPT giving hallucinated medical advice.

Almost every feature they add makes it worse for me

They don't understand GIGO passes. They sit looping burning tokens and fail to return anything too often, if rare.
