This study examines the impact of ChatGPT, a large language model, on online communities that contribute to public knowledge shared on the Internet. We found that ChatGPT has led to a 25% drop in activity on Stack Overflow, a key reference website where programmers share knowledge and solve problems. This substitution threatens the future of the open web, as interactions with AI models are not added to the shared pool of online knowledge. Moreover, this phenomenon could weaken the quality of training data for future models, as machine-generated content likely cannot fully replace human creativity and insight. This shift could have significant consequences for both the public Internet and the future of AI.

Three things we do that I really like:

1. Don’t go to meetings without set outcomes. “Decide x” or “Resolve y.” If a meeting had no clear outcome, troubleshoot it and don’t let it happen again.

2. Need to brainstorm a solution? Do it together. When pm/ux/eng sit together to solve, you end up all moving faster as a result because you’re all thinking out loud. It’s like having three brains. Literally write the PRD, make the mocks, and start eng designs while talking.

3. Invest in your relationships with each other. Lunch is my favorite time of the day. The whole team sits together to eat and talk about what’s going on. It’s productive (and fun), but when you have a solid relationship the rate of feedback for work being done is also more efficient.

"I think and talk a lot about the risks of powerful AI. The company I’m the CEO of, Anthropic, does a lot of research on how to reduce these risks. Because of this, people sometimes draw the conclusion that I’m a pessimist or “doomer” who thinks AI will be mostly bad or dangerous. I don’t think that at all. In fact, one of my main reasons for focusing on risks is that they’re the only thing standing between us and what I see as a fundamentally positive future. I think that most people are underestimating just how radical the upside of AI could be, just as I think most people are underestimating how bad the risks could be."

Midjourney went from v.1 to v.6 in less than 2 years. If something similar happens, most jobs that could be done remotely will be automatable in a few years.

Remote work will be dead?

FYI: Sweden plans to implement the EU’s updated Blue Card Directive on Jan 1, 2025, lowering salary thresholds and expanding eligibility for skilled workers. This move could boost opportunities for Ethiopian professionals in sectors like IT and engineering. Despite high living costs, Sweden remains appealing for its quality of life and salaries.
