Hi, I’m Craig Bailey and this is my personal blog where I write about technology, business systems, HubSpot and general life experiences. You can read my posts here.
(If you are looking for the Content is King post by Bill Gates it is here)
I’m involved with three agencies in Sydney:
I also co-host HubShots, the podcast and YouTube show focussed on getting the most out of HubSpot. We are the creators of the HubShots Framework.
Good article covering the water usage in data centres, with a focus on those used for training AI. [Aside: Interestingly, the Techmeme summary title is a little click-baity (which is unusual because techmeme usually takes the hype out of articles).] The summary seems to be that data centres can take up to 1 litre of water for every 100 ChatGPT prompts from users. The calculation comes from a...
This is a follow up post to my The Four Voices of the No Campaign article last week. As per that previous post, a few introductory notes: This is based on my personal sphere, I’m not pretending it is representative of the wider community This won’t discuss any of the issues, it is purely about the groups that are voting Yes With that said, here’s my current observation of the...
From The New York Times: The Internal Revenue Service has started using artificial intelligence to investigate tax evasion at multibillion-dollar partnerships as it looks for ways to better police hedge funds, private equity groups, real estate investors and large law firms. NYT Assuming this does focus on the bigger players (often the smallest tax payers) and has safeguards in place , I’d...
SimilarWeb reckons ChatGPT usage is dropping (according to this Reuters article). See also this report from back in July 2023 reporting on a 10% drop in web traffic to the ChatGPT site. Note: this is only looking at web traffic trends, ie it excludes apps and API traffic (which one would assume is growing). Difficult to say what this means for ChatGPT (versus AI interest in general), but given...
Amazon has updated it’s Content Guidelines for Kindle books to require indication of AI generated content – here’s the full section that’s relevant: Start quote: “Artificial intelligence (AI) content (text, images, or translations) We require you to inform us of AI-generated content (text, images, or translations) when you publish a new book or make edits to and...
Do you remember your first time using Google search?
I do. Even after all these years. It was amazing.
Hard to believe that was 25 years ago.
The LastPass security issue continues.
Summary:
A bunch of seasoned, security minded crypto investors are finding their wallets drained
So far, $35M has been confirmed
A common trait is they had their seed phrases stored in LastPass prior to the security incidents last year
If this ends up being confirmed as a LastPass hack outcome, then it’s only the start of a bunch of knock-on effects.
A few introductory remarks (since this is such a passionate topic): This is based on my personal sphere, I’m not pretending it is representative of the wider community This won’t discuss any of the issues, it is purely about the groups that are voting No It will likely be updated based on feedback from smart people than me As I see it there are four main groups (‘voices’)...
One quick answer: can we see it? And does seeing it invoke an emotional response? Trying to get to the bottom of what clients perceive as valuable is challenging, but I’ve started to realise an important part is whether they can see it. Whether they can point at it. Whether they can easily show it to others. A few examples to highlight the differences: Improving the efficiency of a sales...
I’m guessing 1 in 5 of the posts I see on LI these days is ChatGPT generated. They have that slightly fake feel about them, that we’re all starting to become attuned to. The equivalent of seeing an airbrushed ‘candid’ photo in your feed. Not off-putting, but not completely authentic. Your mileage may vary. Not that there’s anything wrong with this, and frankly it...
