People talk about fake news and conspiracies, but Effective Altruism is aggressively placing their agents inside of the mainstream media outlets to control the narrative about AI, and they're not even hiding it. They literally brag about it in public. Do you think China knows they've placed agents in their media as well? I wonder if Trump and Xi talked about an AI Doomsday Cult from Berkeley infiltrating Chinese media or not... As always, it's the same pool of money controlled by Anthropic's seed investors, and Dario's brother in law. They're doing it right out in the open. https://vibecodeguild.substack.com/p/how-effective-altruism-infiltrated?r=706kcp&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=true

Meta's new Muse product is poised to win the AI race because they have the distribution and they figured out how to make AI approachable for normal people. Most people have zero interest in coding some lame SAAS project, but everyone has things in their life that could be simplified and Facebook made this easy with all of the ideas and goal inside Muse. Anthropic went after Nerds, OpenAI went after Nonfunded Obligations, and Meta is going after Normies. Normies pay the bills, this is a smart move and their stock will probably reflect that over the coming months. Here's an overview of why they're positioned to win

full write up is here with links and list of speakers, and one fun story of me destroying a kook with facts because he wandered too close to my actual area of expertise and personal connections.

🧶 Naughty Knitters is live on the App Store! I'm a non-coder who vibe-coded a native iPhone app with Claude, and it's finally out in the world. It's a free map of BC yarn shops, fibre farms and mills, plus a community events calendar and a set of free knitting tools (row counter, needle chart and more). It's available in both Canada and the US. The map is BC-focused, but the tools work anywhere, and it's a good look at what a solo builder can ship without a dev background. If you have an iPhone, I'd love it if you'd try it and leave a rating or review. Reviews are what get a new app noticed, and I'm entering it in a hackathon that ends Sep 30, so this week matters most. 🙏 👉 https://apps.apple.com/app/naughty-knitters/id6802524617 Happy to answer questions about how I built it, the tools I used, and getting through App Review as a first-timer. Feedback and honest criticism welcome! I'm busy returning emails from Knitting shops etc. I have an AI event at the University tonight and am waiting on a review for my second APP, I hope it make it in the hackathon also? Still shaking of dirt from Camping, will talk soon.
