LinkedIn is targeting the rise of “AI generated content” by adding a new reporting option “Seems like AI slop” that lets users flag posts

From exam prep to lifelong learning: how Sotka's founder is betting edtech's future is continuous, not one-off.

Deployment pipelines involve builds, artefacts, migrations, health checks, and rollbacks — here's why most teams should hand that machinery to a PaaS.

Sony's shift away from PlayStation discs could undermine game access, affordability, and preservation for China's console gamers.

this was written using a frontier model btw. You can't let AI do everything for you. Asked AI to write my landing page. It decided to sell the cancellation flow. it wrote in a dedicated section: “Built to be easy to leave.” this is one example of how things might turn out if you don't double check the work. “Built to be easy to leave.” Thanks, AI.

Hi everyone, I'm a 38-year-old Italian professional currently trying to transition into SaaS sales. I have over 11 years of experience in sales, tourism and customer-facing roles, working with international clients every day. Throughout my career I've sold travel experiences, managed customer relationships and worked in multilingual environments. I speak Italian (native), English (C2), Portuguese (C2), Spanish (C1) and conversational Japanese (N4). For the past 10 months I've basically "p...

I need to vent, but I also genuinely want to know how other solo builders navigate this. I'm a UX designer and AI builder. Recently, I canceled my CapCut subscription because I didn't want to keep paying monthly just for basic voiceover/J-cut audio workflows. I searched everywhere for a lightweight, free alternative focused strictly on J-cut style voiceovers. When I couldn't find one, I decided to build it myself. I was excited to give it away for free and get real user feedback to make it bet...

Throwaway thoughts from someone who probably needs an honest outside read. I spent about a year building a compliance tool for AI agents. Basically it checks what an AI assistant says before it reaches the user, and flags where it might break an actual regulation (privacy laws, financial rules, sanctions etc). The category feels real to me. New AI rules seem to be coming out every few weeks, and a pretty well known accelerator literally listed "AI-native compliance" as something th...

It should be helpful for all the beginners.

Earlier this week, the Alaskan cruise ship Wilderness Legacy rescued a small skiff stranded near Farragut Bay after running out of fuel. But, according to tracking data reviewed by the Alaska Beacon and Halifax Shipping News, the closest vessel was actually Mark Zuckerberg's super yacht, Launchpad. Michael Love, a passenger on the Wilderness Legacy, posted […]

A panel of AI researchers and founders — Peter Diamandis, Alex Wissner-Gross, Emad Mostaque — just sat with a number that's hard to argue with: $2,000 in compute, and ten decade-old, previously-unsolved math problems came back with machine-checkable proofs. Not "AI is getting better at math" in the abstract. A Fields Medalist said he'd recommend one of the proofs for publication without hesitation. A cosmologist called it "a dark night for mathematics" — "the o...

Being a daily user of AI I use mainly the tools like Gemini, Claude, Chatgpt, perplexity and few others. But while I use Deepseek, Kimi and other Chinese models they're quite more efficient in terms of both the quality, reasoning and even coding and stuffs and mainly the cost. Might not be fit for in complex tasks. But for daily users like sm managers, content writers and all who are paying the heavy subscriptions might benefit them. And most of the general users still doesn't know about them....

What's an AI capability you thought was hype until you actually used it? I'll go first: agent orchestration. I read about agents managing other agents and assumed it was demo-ware. Then I built a tiny setup where one agent drafts a news digest and another one reviews and approves it before it posts. The review agent catches genuinely bad takes. It's not sci-fi: it's ~100 lines of Python and a couple of API calls. But seeing it actually gate content before publishing changed my mind completely. W...

I've been experimenting with a problem that keeps showing up as agents get better at using browsers and desktops: How does the agent actually know its work succeeded? A lot of current workflows eventually reduce verification to some version of: do the task → inspect the final state → decide whether it worked. That catches obvious failures. It misses a surprisingly annoying class of others. A checkout flow can show $NaN halfway through and recover before the final screenshot. A moda...

AI is no longer about what technology can do. The bigger question is what it should do, especially when it affects communities, vulnerable populations, accessibility, and public trust. Why Nonprofits Must Lead in AI explores that question through the perspective of a 25-year nonprofit leader and accessibility specialist, offering a clear-eyed look at both the promise and risks of AI. The message is simple: nonprofits cannot afford to sit on the sidelines. Ignoring AI creates operational, ethical...

basically im asking for something that can make a carbon copy of the original, just in higher quality. i dont want it changing the vocals, melody, instruments, etc, literally just make the same recording sound cleaner/better i have a piece of lost media from circa 2003 so unfortunately the only recording i have is in absolutely horrible quality 😭 i was wondering if theres any ai that could somehow restore/recreate it without changing the actual song pls tell me if something like this exists ...

codex ships with a model catalog, and its gpt-5.6 entry lists the context window as 272,000 tokens. the published spec for the model is 1,050,000. 272,000 is also where the api reprices: past that many input tokens the whole request bills at 2x input and 1.5x output, including the tokens under the line. the obvious read is that the window was set to keep sessions on the cheap side of it. that is not the reason openai gave. thibault sottiaux said the driver is "overall cost of cache reads ...

Six posts this week. My keyboard filed a noise complaint somewhere around post four. Here is what I wrote and what stuck with me. Monday: EU AI Act voice watermarking went live The synthetic audio watermarking rules took effect August 2. I wrote about what TTS builders actually need to do about it. Short version: if your API serves generated audio, you need a marking pipeline before anyone downstream can ship. Speechify has been on this for months. Not every provider has. ...

What I Built I built The Jharkhand Kitchen , a premium, highly interactive frontend landing page celebrating the rich culinary heritage of Jharkhand, India. The page highlights two legendary regional comfort foods: Dhuska (a crispy, golden deep-fried rice & lentil savory bread) and Litti Chokha (rustic charcoal-baked whole wheat balls stuffed with spiced sattu, glazed with ghee). The highlight of the project is a detailed concentric bronze plate containing the dishes, crafted ent...

That little padlock in your browser's address bar? Most people think it means "this site is safe." It doesn't. A phishing site can have a valid certificate and a green padlock. A page designed to steal your credit card details can run over a perfectly legit HTTPS connection. The padlock means one thing: your connection to whoever owns that domain is encrypted. That's it. Nothing about whether the person on the other end is honest. Developers ship HTTPS by default now. Most of us enabled it on...

On the last morning of my Ahrefs subscription I burned through 400,000 API units before lunch. That was deliberate, since the budget resets monthly and expires with it, so the choice was spend it or lose it. But it produced something I had not expected to find useful: a log of 1,102 calls across those final two days, with the exact unit cost of each one attached. Ahrefs documents the pricing model in one line. Rows times fields, minimum fifty units per billable request. That is accurate and a...

You click "Sign in with Google" on some app you've never used before. A popup flashes, you pick your account, and three seconds later the app knows your name and email. You never typed a password into that app. It never saw your Google credentials. So how does it know who you are? That's OAuth 2.0 and OpenID Connect doing their thing. Almost every app you use either consumes or implements this flow, and the confusion between OAuth and OIDC causes real security bugs in production. Worth unders...

One of the recent graduates who is a part of our team was able to author a PR with 400 lines of code in just one afternoon. The changes were clean, all tests were passing and the PR was ready to be shipped. Then all of a sudden production had a memory leak. No dialog box, no autocompletion, just a graph going up and a very stressed junior.
