Am I being dumb, or is this not making any sense? Thanks, but no thanks, Google, I think I'll work this out for myself. I've mainly used DuckDuckGo recently, so it is interesting to see this. #AI #smallbusiness

Machine learning is only truly effective and efficient for a small number of tasks when done right.
Large Language Models in particularly are only good for a small subset of Machine Learning tasks. None of these tasks are best done with a single monolithic "AI" machine.

Fun fact: if you're buying from a creator on etsy, you can reduce their etsy selling fees from 6.5% to 2.5% by ordering via 'shopname.etsy.com' instead of 'etsy.com/shopname' or searching from the main site. It costs you the same but the creator makes more

After using Adobe's graphic suite for many years, we switched to using Affinity at the end of 2024.
This was partly because of the price. Adobe charges upwards of £50 per month, per user, for its software. Affinity charges a one-time fee of under £200...🧵

When I talk about the negative consequences of the internet, I don’t mean the internet is fundamentally bad or that it should be destroyed or that people shouldn’t be able to connect at scale. What I mean is that the most popular internet platforms have been weaponized to incentivize bad behavior
