The thing about DML

Yes, as I said it several times DML is good, DML is strong and I would hazard a guess that with LLM it becomes a new world altogether. So, yesterday at Google I was given a challenge and I basically set up the the entire station in less than 15 minutes. But it was a group event and I was voted out and like a good geriatric boy I adhered to that setting. There was no regrets because Pradhan who won by one vote was pretty amazing. He programmed the entire setting in three hours and then we ran out of tokens and at Google subway tokens have no value, not even the New York tokens. He programmed it all in CLI and it was pretty stellar what he did. So here I am with my idea and I came to the conclusion that I could add a few settings and add it to my blog. So there are no bad feelings (he was pretty awesome programming it in CLI) and as we all adhered to the group setting, someone had to lose (that would be me) and my idea, which took a mere 15 minutes was ‘scrapped’ only to find some survivability in my own blog.

The setting was to create a setting making the Google earbuds more in any way possible. So here I was and in the first minute my mind when “Hold on, I could do…” and it was off to the races at that point. So I ‘created’ an App (attached at the end) where there are two settings. There are websites and news channels and they only thing it does is give the user an alert through their earbuds. So, I was thinking:

  • new content on my blog (which I all write myself)
  • Added content on Amazon, or added stock of a particular item on Amazon
  • Added messages on a specific website like a message 
  • Added content on IGN Board for a specific game

Then there are the news channels:

  • New materials on Arab News on ‘Egypt’
  • New materials on Al Jazeera on ‘Hajj 2026’
  • New materials on CNN on ‘Trump’
  • New materials on Reuters on ‘Jamie Dimon’

That last one was added as I saw a new apartment yesterday (which was outside of my price range) and the first thing you see when you get out of bed is ‘J.P. Morgan’ so there is that psychological slap in the face, but some might not think it is a bd idea, especially as the Sydney office is pretty nice to see.

And the DML/LLM setting is simple. It took less than an hour and the drag/drop stage is on page 5. It worked all nicely, a few kinks, but this is new terrain, so I am allowed to take my time. The app was more easily designed and I can to the conclusion that one tab needed to be added. You see the tab for Websites with 4 options, but I reckon that close to a dozen are needed. And the news channels the same, but I am still on the fence whether it should be one or two dozen options. The feed tab was missing at that time, so as each target sounds its primary/secondary or tertiary alert, you can decide to stop and see what happens, or you can do so at the next moment you sit down somewhere and as you don’t have to go seeking on the stages that you considered adding alerts, you go into the app and see the last alerts that the app gave shaded red for the primary alert, shaded yellow for the secondary alert and green for the tertiary. It comes from the stage where we have ‘essential to know’, ’need to know’ and ‘nice to know’ and as you click on that alert it takes you to the page that is linked to that. No seeking required and I thought that Google could freely hand that to its customers. Making the mission statement “to organize the world’s information and make it universally accessible and useful” a direct setting for all users of the Google Pixel whatever version and using the Google earbuds. I think I did rather well in less than an hour and now we see that the adaptation of a DML situation on the world stage (still not calling it AI) becomes the birth of a new app glorifying the equipment of that company with the Big Gee (a BeeGees reference). And as you see, I can make fun of myself as well (favourite subject)  but when you wonder why people are failing their AI it is said that “Artificial Intelligence (AI) failures are instances where AI systems produce biased, harmful, absurd, or catastrophic results due to data issues, incorrect training, or flawed logic. Recent real-world breakdowns highlight the need for continuous human oversight, data governance, and cautious deployment.” So, as I see it, I circumvented that part of failure and gave everyone a tool that could be useful for all who don’t want to surf their mobiles and this app gives the user that result whilst that person is listening to music and seemingly running for their lives to their next heart attack (aka jogging). So you all have a nice day and I will hopefully consider another solution in the next 900 minutes.

Till next time
