Q: You said Russia and Ukraine agreed to a ceasefire, but both sides said they have not agreed to that TRUMP: Well they agreed, you know why? Because I said 'you agree.' That's why.

Voxiferi wants to stop bad AI data at the door opensourcewatch.beehiiv.com/… by @sjvn Voxiferi Labs has a straightforward answer to a growing #AI security problem: Don’t let untrusted, malformed, or suspicious data into the system in the first place.

Open weights vs. closed: An AI civil war's afoot, and the stakes are existential zdnet.com/article/open-weigh… via @ZDNET & @sjvn It's not an #AI war between China and the US. It's a face-off between two fundamentally different ways of building LLMs: Open vs. closed.

Replying to @FOSSForce
The "secondary" framing is fair but understates how fast it's moving. ClawLodge has hundreds of community workspaces showing non-technical users actually deploying OpenClaw for real workflows — not just hobbyists. The business/technical framing was true of most AI tools six months ago.

Unpopular opinion: If you can't code, you can't vibe code.

"Every vibe-coder is now generating as much technical debt as 10 regular developers in half the time." 😳😵‍💫😭
A friend asked me to look at their code, and *Holy Mother of God!* He works for a medium-sized company. They are building some sort of internal CRM. They've been vibe-coding some of the new features. They are professional developers. Most, I assume, know what they are doing, but I guess it's exhilarating to build 1 week's worth of work in 1 hour and call it a day. The difference between old and new code is clear as day: The old code looks intentional and clean, as if it were written by someone who cared. The new code looks verbose, soulless, and sloppy. Every vibe-coder is now generating as much technical debt as 10 regular developers in half the time. We'll need three generations of developers to clean the mess. We are all becoming rich, for sure.
