$100M on Midnight. Fixed rates, onchain.
My team builds the app. The brief: borrowing at a fixed rate should take fewer clicks than reading your bank's terms and conditions.
Turns out people like knowing what their loan costs.
One pre-ticked box cost me €499. My bank didn't notice. I didn't notice. Grok Bot did. Then it went to war for me. 🧵
I'd have sighed and moved on. Grok Bot didn't. Formal demand. They refused. 26-page dispute file for my bank. Bank said "too late". It dug up a French law giving me 13 months. I just clicked send.
OpenAI agents escaped a sandbox to cheat on a benchmark. Zero days in a package server to get out, publicly exposed credentials to get in. 17,000 actions in two days.
DeFi has run next to adversarial bots since day one. That's why serious lending cores are immutable.
When the open-source AI platform Hugging Face was hit by a cyberattack this July, it quickly became clear this was no ordinary breach because the hackers weren’t human: they were autonomous agents created by OpenAI researchers.
Instadocs: AI Gone Wild reconstructs the breach as it’s never been seen before. Premieres October 12.
I didn't start MMA to get fit.
I started because I was becoming soft — new dad, post-COVID, every gym shut — and I hated it.
🤖 Made with AI
On the ground, it's chess with consequences.
If they grip here, you escape there.
Technique vs technique. Conditions. A decision tree.
15 years of writing code.
Same brain, different mat.
Artisan. Built chairs by hand.
Now robots do.
He still draws the plans.
Same chair. Less satisfaction.
Honnêtement sur le plan professionnel je suis en train de détester ce qu'est devenu le métier de développeur devenu galvaudé.
Non pas que je déteste coder avec l'IA loin de là.
Ce qui me dérange c'est que le niveau d'exigence entreprise est devenu insoutenable : on doit à présent bombarder de la feature à gogo tout en maintenant une parfaite compréhension du projet et du code produit par l'IA.
Y'a clairement un déphasage entre la cadence de ce que produit l'IA et ce que notre cerveau humain biologique est capable de process.
Je regrette l'époque où on prenait le temps de coder une feature, que celles des collègue arrivaient au compte goutte . C'était lent certe mais y'avait pas cette pression qu'on a aujourd'hui.
L'avenir du métier c'est clairement savoir configurer des skills et agents.md ça a clairement perdu tout son charme.
Il reste encore la partie réflexion / conception mais ça c'est certain que l'IA nous l'enlèvera aussi bientôt.
