I miss the voice output though and the very cool status line...

So far, every single reply it gave me was 100% correct and better than I could have done. In ~3hrs of net usage, I'm 90% ready to launch a new product.
AND gave it a skill that makes launching new products with my preferred stack a no-brainer.

@npub1klk…x3vt so thanks to your posts about PAI, I tried it out today. Almost gave up because I haven't used claude code before and had trouble wrapping head around everything...
...and it one shotted a business idea I had. My mind is blown. These things have evolved like crazy since 2 years ago.
Thank you for writing about PAI!

"I think we can solve this with time and better UX"
is the king of "famous last words" for any software or protocol. That better UX NEVER EVER materializes.

I can remember the time very very well and I yearn for it to be back.
That's what it's going to feel like in a few years but with AI agents, and a 100 times worse.

AI will be smart enough to know that a new token with higher throughput has undesirable consequences and just stick to bitcoin.

You seem to suggest that "dna is information, information requires intelligence, therefore an intelligance has created us"
I don't think that logical leap is sound, given that we have a fairly good idea about how DNA has evolved over billions of years, basically due to pure random chance.

Very nice! I recently got me a Kobo Libra Colour and my reading amount has gone up significantly, totally love that device (and am glad that Amazon will never earn a single cent from me for eBooks).
I do notice, though, that a really good page turner novel (I recently read A Deepness In The Sky and really loved it) has the same effect like videogames on me: I tend to devour the thing at every free minute to the detriment of other household tasks that I should be doing while my daughter is sleeping.
For hard books, I think the only way to get through them is to ACTUALLY want to LEARN what they have to say. And in order to learn something, you need to engage and THINK actively. And in order to think actively, you need to WRITE. I'm currently reading all Great Books of the Western World (done with everything up until Plato) and going forward, I will read everything Plato AGAIN, but this time with a pen and a (digital) notebook on the table.

This hits hard. My terminal social media consumption for over 2 decades has definitely killed all my joy to experience the world.
There are no surprises any more, you think you have already seen everything and you think that 90% of everything is just god awful stupidity and misery.
Raising my daughter is what pulled me out of that mindset. Seeing the world through her eyes, almost like having a second chance at being a child again, saved me.

Not sure if Gigi's analogy holds. People definitely pay a lot of money so they can see car crashes.
Various videogames which are all about triggering spectacular crashes were big hits in the 90s.
People also love car chases in ever action movie ever made and the car scenes in MadMax are legendary.
I get what he means, though.

True story: I had StackerNews on my homescreen for 2 or 3 years but never posted anything because I couldn't figure out how the fuck to signup/login.
With Keychat it was a nobrainer.

These sound like massive changes to me, I can't imagine that those few minor tradeoffs would be the only consequences??

How much of this time is glancing at the phone while
- sitting on the toilet
- sitting on public transport, commuting to work
- walking somewhere
- waiting somewhere
You can *easily* spend 4hrs with such activities. Basically, many people use their phone during activities that cannot be spent for anything else anyways.
What about people who drive to work and have the phone on for Google Maps? That drives up the screen time.
What about people who take tons of photos of their young children (like me). Drives up screen time.
Those screen time numbers sound unbelievably high - but there are many ways in which they might be inflated - and your suggestion that all that time could be used for something better is most likely wrong because most of the screen time happens during times when no other activity can be pursued.
Of course, during such idle time humans should be *actually idle* and allow the brain to rest instead of bombarding it with dopamine, so those screen time numbers are still horrible no matter what.

Recently finished Ghost of Yotei.
I felt very satisfied and well entertained. Excellently paced game.

Maybe that's why mindfulness meditation can be a powerful tool.
