I truly don’t know how to process Ben Thompson’s essay today. He’s been my steady source of clear-eyed tech takes for like 6 years now and this one feels like straight sci-fi. I’m not an AI doomer, but I’m def in my feelings rn 😩 https://stratechery.com/2023/from-bing-to-sydney-search-as-distraction-s

Part of it might be to protect the sources for reasons that might not be clear to us now.

I’d be much more inclined to take their “journalistic integrity” seriously if this wasn’t the miasma through which I must consume their content 😐 https://i.imgur.com/TpBvUam.jpg

What is they’re hackers? I’m nit saying they are. But what if their entire intention is to find the vulnerable parts. Would you think it’s better to identify them?
