Morning y’all!

It’s another full day so we’ll jump into it, shall we? I hope you’re having a good one so far! We’re almost to Friday — you can do it.

Apparently some folks believe that AT is losing all its hype:

AI enthusiasm is going down. Some argue this dip is merely a natural part of the "hype cycle," but others think that AI won't be able to provide the value that it was promised to provide.

The promise is almost never delivered instantly, so, patience is required. Hold on.

I almost missed this but Midjourney finally has their own web-version for folks to try and use (you get 25 free images to start). I wonder how many folks still prefer Discord or if that’s still a thing.

Microsoft is releasing a Windows Recall AI search feature which takes screenshots of screen activity so people can search for information they saw earlier. The privacy issues on this are numerous and seems like a hacker’s paradise.

This old guy (Amazon Cloud CEO) says that the future is where most engineers do not actually code and AI does it instead. I’m sure that their employees are stoked about hearing that.
