Simplicity rearranged

unmonetizable content since 1997


Hello DeepSeek. Well this changes things…

From Jeffrey Emanuel, one of the best analyses of the advances in DeepSeek AI, wrapped in an investor’s rundown of Nvidia’s valuation, business, and future. This is long, but full of great information and insights. Here’s another good DeepSeek post, written as a FAQ by Ben Thompson.

You might notice that it’s a blog entry at “youtubetranscriptoptimizer,” which seems to be an AI-powered tool for generating transcripts from just about any YouTube video. Emanuel created that app, as well as “fixmydocuments,” an AI-powered tool for converting documents (and audio files) among formats, which for far too long has been an annoying and often difficult process.



About Me

I’m Pete Harbeson, a writer (among other things) located near Boston, Massachusetts. In addition to writing my own content, I’ve learned to translate for my loquacious and opinionated pup Chocolate Bossypaws. No surprise, she mostly speaks in doggerel. You can find her contributions tagged with Chocolatiana.

Check out my newsletter, Artisanal Scribbles, where I’m grappling with writing, authentic human authorship, integrity, and the craft of beauty in the AI age. You can also find some of my old software projects at GitHub. Nothing very impressive. I mostly wrote tiny utilities in Python and shell scripts. I’m mostly retired from coding nowadays.

I find myself suddenly de-corporatized (their choice, not mine). To help keep the lights on, buy me a coffee!
