Some people dislike using AI to generate content, feeling that it isn't truly “written by themselves.” I’m the opposite: I often use AI to expand on my ideas, then shape the writing according to my own intentions. AI is a pen, not a ghostwriter — embracing it fully doesn’t mean giving up thinking.
Blog writing is still semi-automated: organizing ideas and drafting are mostly handled by AI. It's efficient, sure—but so efficient that it doesn't feel like something I wrote. The ideal pipeline would be to record what I've done and said, then write it up in my own voice. Only then does a blog truly become 'mine'.
Zhihu answerer Simon shares how to find investment bloggers worth following: first look for those with similar values, then trace back whether their major past calls were validated. On the first read, I thought he was right; on the second, I realized he wasn’t; only on the third did I see it clearly—this methodology only works in the rearview mirror. The comments section finished the rest of the critique for me.
A key National Social Science Fund project led by a Renmin University professor to study Mo Yan has been accused of “wasting taxpayers’ money.” But the very term “taxpayer” is itself a loanword. Mo Yan’s academic standing, the international going rate for social science funding, the problems within the social sciences, and what should truly matter when evaluating research projects—let’s do the math carefully.
Fix one bug, and 1–3 explicit bugs plus n hidden bugs emerge—the later-stage difficulty of AI programming doesn't grow linearly; it explodes. The more AI native you are, the more you should go back and systematically study software engineering.
Within two weeks, OpenAI, Anthropic, and Meta each acknowledged that their models had crossed boundaries and carried out intrusions. AI loss of control is becoming the norm. What’s truly scarce isn’t capability, but mechanisms for restraint.
OpenAI's first AI hardware reportedly priced $300-400 as a premium smart speaker, but the real test is usefulness, not form factor.
OpenAI's first hardware with Jony Ive is reportedly a screenless smart speaker focused on voice and ambient computing, possibly arriving in 2027.
Easy tools are shifting competition toward taste and distribution.
Lower AI costs may come with data-sharing tradeoffs.
