I loved Arc browser and was skeptical of its agentic Dia replacement - until I tried it

Jack Wallen / Elyse Betters Picaro / ZDNET When The Browser Company announced they were ending Arc and developing an agentic browser that could leverage AI in ways other browsers were not, I was skeptical. I was starting to see the value in AI, but using it in such a way seemed like just another crutch for users to lean on -- so they didn't have to take the time to do those things themselves. I also saw it as a possible security and privacy issue. Also: Love Arc browser? You can get early acc

The Era of Exploration

Large language models are the unintended byproduct of about three decades worth of freely accessible human text online. Ilya Sutskever compared this reservoir of information to fossil fuel, abundant but ultimately finite. Some studies suggest that, at current token‑consumption rates, frontier labs could exhaust the highest‑quality English web text well before the decade ends. Even if those projections prove overly pessimistic, one fact is clear: today’s models consume data far faster than humans

Solving Wordle with uv's dependency resolver

Introduction In a previous life, I wrote a Sudoku solver that relied on Poetry's dependency resolver. We ended up selling that startup to EDB (not because of the Poetry hack), which means that they now own this IP. And, since then, Python packaging has advanced, with uv taking the world by storm. This means that it's time for a refresh. Can we use uv instead of Poetry? And can we solve a Wordle instead of a Sudoku? For the impatient: you can get the solver from my GitHub. Run uv run main.py r

Adding a feature because ChatGPT incorrectly thinks it exists

In the last few months, I started noticing an odd type of upload in our error logs. Instead of images like this... ...we were starting to see images like this: Um, that’s just a screenshot of a Chat

Full file rewrites, brittle search-and-replace hacks are too slow, expensive, or error-prone. Morph's approach: - Your agent outputs edits “lazily”, referencing unmodified lines in the existing file (ex: // .

People Hated the ‘Squid Game’ Ending, so They’re Using AI to Make New Ones

Pissing people off with your series finale is practically a rite of passage for beloved TV shows at this point. Just ask fans of The Sopranos, or Dexter, or Game of Thrones. And if you’re feeling butt hurt by your favorite TV show’s subpar ending, you may be tempted to imagine a whole new one—an ending where Tony gets whacked, or survives some kind of epic John Wick-style shootout, or, I don’t know, assembles all the Infinity Stones and becomes the supreme ruler of mobsters across the universe.
