You opened it! Thanks for reading my newsletter. Let's catch up on the latest in tech! This week, I headed to Seattle for two big Microsoft events. One focused on their new computers and another was aimed at developers. I had some time to explore Pike Place Market, and it was excellent. It was a perfect sunny Sunday afternoon. I checked out the fish-throw…

Google’s NotebookLM is a new free service that lets you apply AI to your own notes and documents. You can use it to surface new ideas and find fresh connections in your thoughts and research. Read on for how I’m using it, what I like most about it, its limitations, and two interesting alternatives.

Hi all, Parker here. A Google search for the phrase “how many rocks should I eat each day” returned an AI-generated result citing “UC Berkeley geologists” who suggest people eat “at least one small rock a day.” It turns out that the actual source of this information was

Hey there, Digital Writers! Today, I want to share with you the two main ways I think about interacting with AI: Prompting and Chatting Prompting is your go-to when you have a clear idea of what you want. Chatting is perfect for exploring new topics and uncovering unique angles.

Financial operations are needlessly complex. You have to cobble together a patchwork of tools that aren’t integrated with each other, cost you time, and lead to errors. Mercury simplifies this with banking* and software that powers all your critical

Welcome to Issue #71 of Detection Engineering Weekly! I had an amazing time at SLEUTHCON last week! It was a privilege to be around so many like-minded threat intel and research professionals. I’ll make sure to link some talks once the recordings go up on YouTube, but if you have a chance to go, please do!

Hello to all my new subscribers! If you’re here because you read the tome I put out last week about how race, class, and identity were playing out in my home congressional district, as incumbent Rep. Jamaal Bowman and challenger George Latimer clash in the wake of the Israel-Palestine rift among Democrats, be forewarned: The Connector is my forum for re…

On May 10, I saw the northern lights in southern Missouri. I didn’t know they were coming. I was on a river sandbar looking for the Milky Way. It was early, so my husband and I were counting stars. It is easy to see stars in a place with no people. A white streak emerged, wider than a strobe and more defined than a galaxy.

I hinted at some thoughts about AI in my last Team Human monologue, and those generated as many emails as the main subject - which was learning to disengage from the pace of the internet. These ideas are related, of course: making a conscious, human choice about whether and how we use AI requires the same application of agency as disengaging from the pa…

The other big recent news, aside from Sam nonconsensually making a Scarlett Johansson-like character, even after #ScarlettSaidNo, was that Satya unveiled an Orwellian new Microsoft feature called Recall that will (not making this up) take and record locally screenshots of everything you do. (“F^ck that. I don’t want my computer to spy on everything I do…

We may never reach Stage 8 of the model I explained in last week’s article, but we can come very close. Although recruiters believe that AI cannot completely replace them and hold on to the assumption that people are always necessary, they have been proven wrong in many other fields. We no longer generally use travel agents, nor do we go to shops when we want to buy a complex product. Online access gives us more information and allows us to research several options. It puts us in control. I believe this is what both hiring managers and candidates want as well.

In terms of things that go in AI updates, this has been the busiest two week period so far. Every day ends with more open tabs than it started, even within AI. As a result, some important topics are getting pushed to whenever I can give them proper attention. Triage is the watchword.

Darryl Cooper joins me to discuss the archetypical significance of UFO's and AI as a "living myth" of the modern era. Are they real? Will AI replace humanity, as so many predict? Or are aliens and AI two different manifestations of the same Archetype for the technological age?

An AI-generated image of tents spelling out “All Eyes on Rafah” has gone viral as people share their horror at the tragic events in the southern Gaza city. An Israeli airstrike, targeted at Hamas commanders, is believed to have caused a blaze in a tented area for displaced people.
