Issue 306: The crop circles have code

So, guess we're officially in the post-GenAI world, huh? If you're getting the feeling that the tech is just getting stronger, faster, and better, you're not alone—even the plants are starting to feel it. On the pod, Darryl Lyons from Rainstick joined us to talk about the advancements in AgTech and how they're using bioelectricity to literally make it rain...and enhance agricultural productivity. But it's not all daisies and rainbows in the tech world. We also had Mithril's Jared Quincy Davis on the show to discuss the GPU shortage (or lack thereof), and how the economics of GPUs are going to need to change in the age of AI.

Besides getting your GPUs right, there are lots of things you're probably doing wrong with your AI strategy. Don't worry, we have a piece on the blog for you about what you need for enterprise success in the post-GenAI world. Hopefully that will calm some of the grief you feel when you read about how trillions are being spent on software projects that are still failing. Sometimes, the best way to get things done is just sitting down and doing it, as per another story from the web this week on how one dev team fixed 189 bugs in one week. And doesn't optimization, efficiency, and AI just make you hungry? If so, we have an EGGROLL for you—an Evolution Guided General Optimization via Low-rank Learning ML algorithm to be exact.

If that ML algorithm doesn't satiate your hunger, maybe what you have is an appetite for knowledge. Even in a post-GenAI world, there are some questions only users on Stack can answer. For instance, is it illegal for chatbots to pretend to be human? Did you like Klondike Solitaire before it was cool? Will someone please help this poor person delete these files off their USB? We have those answers for you—and so much more—down in the links below.
