"This is essential to build trust in the information ecosystem and will help the public better understand whether content is AI-generated or manipulated."
The downside is when it gets it wrong after lots of people have learned to trust the label. This is an arms race and there will be times the baddies pull ahead.

It’s not just you. The world’s software is feeling a little unstable lately. Must be all the Rust people are using

And this is a surprise?
Every advance in hardware is instantaneously filled with more bloated consuming software just because. Only because you can do one thing doesn't mean that you have to. If people tried to be good at a couple of things instead of purchasing all the buzzword bingo bullsh1t that is put in those useless rankings every year... maybe some things would not happen. After all, there is no bug free software and no 100% security, no matter what you do

It's growth. Well, that, and the way we grew.
We needed a decade's worth of web developers. We thought it was just fine to have a million different APIs we just download and glue together with tips from S.O.
This is skill, but it is a different sort of skill from authoring those APIs or authoring things without them.
I think it will continue to erode a bit longer. Too much demand and too little skill to go around and the combination means it's even more rare to have acumen in management with regard to all of it. AI will exacerbate this (via quantity), but the degree to which it helps find mistakes may make it a wash.

Even as companies race to roll out generative AI tools to be more competitive and productive, several hurdles are leading to pilots being abandoned. The other two will just disappoint

Microsoft's cloud services are having a bad day with users worldwide reporting difficulty connecting to Azure. Who needed to get any work done today anyway?

From the article: The outage will doubtless trigger a cold sweat in admins after the events less than two weeks ago, in which an Azure wobble preceded the arrival of CrowdStrike's horseman of the borkpocalypse.

Developers who use Google's Gemini Code Assist tool in Microsoft's Visual Studio Code editor were this month informed the tool would be free to use until Nov. 8, 2024, an extension of a previous July 11 deadline. No one is using it, are they?
Now you can not use it even longer!

Right....
Based on the "AI" chatbots companies put on their websites, do not invest in these companies. Dumber than a brick and I see no intelligence at all. It's like a chatbot that wants to be a human with knowledge but no knowledge.

First of all, not all programmers would make great entrepreneurs. But the parallels between the skills required in programming or better yet software engineering or development, and entrepreneurship is striking. Present company included, of course

You can now leverage Sign CLI for a more secure, modern way to sign your Visual Studio extensions. Sadly, you still need to get a cert separately
