#62"AI Mode" usage is up month over month. Almost like because they forced it upon everyone. Once again, is there any real AI demand?
I much prefer it to having to click through links to find things. My last handful of searches were:
- Looking up open hours for a local store
- Defining words

- "cloudformation read parameter from ssm"
Things where I want to look up a fact, but want an answer right away without having to read through multiple pages.

Maybe Google will finally launch a working coding agent
I cant see how they could. The Gemini cli repo was a shit show the last time I looked a month ago and the service itself wouldnt even let me use version > 2.5 even though I was a paying customer.

#64I was curious and just installed it, and... Antigravity is a literal clone of VSCode. Wtf? Honestly, it's so embarassing. I might write a blog post about this, but I remember falling in love with the art of product watching Google demo Google Wave. Janky sure, ahead-of-its-time maybe, but also visionary and mind-blowing. Here we are almost two decades later and Google is re-releasing something made by Microsoft. The…

#65I wonder what's in store for the local Gemma models, as well as Flutter.

Local models are getting really good these days including web search and tool calling such that for many use cases I don't even need cloud models.

#66Interesting that the 3.5 Flash launches before 3.5 Pro. Historically it's been the reverse for Gemini since Flash is distilled from Pro? Are they just training it a bit longer until it tops benchmarks?

ASI now. You'd think contrasted with AGI it would be Artificial Specialized Intelligence, but it's Artificial Super Intelligence. Since AGI already happened and didn't mean anything, the next step is a super AI.
Oh yeah? My dad works on a super duper AI. It's much better than a super AI.

#70Why would I want to vibe code a "fully functional operating system"?
Tinkering and experimentation. Could be a good use for older hardware. Why not.
