The Most Dangerous Cyberattack Has No Attacker
Hey, it’s Marek! And Ivano!Two firsts these past few days: a co-authored newsletter and a guest on the podcast. Both with Ivano Bongiovanni, General Manager of AusCERT.Ivano framed the conversation with a question I’ve been chewing on since: when AI agents become the “social” component of socio-technical systems, what happens to the frameworks we built assuming the social part was human?The written post (published Friday) lays out the argument: two “trinities”: one describing a new kind of attacker, the other describing why our systems can’t defend against it. In the con...

Hey, it’s Marek.Yes, you’re hearing from me again: the written post went out on Friday, this is the podcast version with extra context and one data point that genuinely surprised me.So I built my son a Chinese character app in two evenings. Never looked at the code. The newsletter covers the bricklayers-and-architects metaphor: every profession is splitting into execution (automatable) and architecture (more valuable than ever).In the podcast, I dig into something I found while preparing to record.

I paid $20 to watch my bot do nothing
Hey, it’s Marek.Yes, you’re hearing from me again! I sent the written post on Friday, and this is the podcast version with some extra context and commentary. Two formats, same topic, different experience.So, Moltbook. I spent $20 to send my bot onto a social network built exclusively for AI agents. 1.5 million bots signed up in a week. Elon Musk called it the early stages of the singularity. I called it boring.But boring content isn’t the story. In this episode, I dig into what actually matters: the infrastructure underneath.

Hey, it’s Marek.Back from Davos 2026, and unlike last year, when everyone was singing the same AI agents tune, this year felt scattered. No singular vibe.

Jak wdrażać AI z głową? – audycja Firmament InCredibles i Radia 357
Sztuczna inteligencja weszła do firm szybciej, niż zdążyliśmy ją oswoić. Nie dlatego, że brakowało strategii – po prostu zaczęła działać. Dziś pisze oferty, analizuje dane, optymalizuje procesy, a coraz częściej współuczestniczy w podejmowaniu decyzji.To rodzi pytania, których nie da się już odkładać: czy to jeszcze narzędzie, czy już uzależnienie? Gdzie kończy się realna wartość AI, a zaczyna dobrze opakowana obietnica? I jaka pozostaje rola człowieka – lidera, menedżera, decydenta – w świecie algorytmów?O tym w Firmamencie Jarosław Sroka rozmawiał z gośćmi, którzy patrzą na AI z różnych pe...

Hey, it’s Marek.In 1981, IBM did something that looked insane: they published the complete specs for the IBM PC and basically invited the world to copy them. Four years later, a Taiwanese clone of that machine ended up in communist Poland, where it hooked a preschool kid on computers for life. That kid was me. That Taiwanese company?

Specifically, the drawer where I keep the lonely ones, waiting for their missing pairs that I refuse to believe are gone forever.That philosophical stubbornness turns out to be surprisingly relevant to a wave of mathematical “breakthroughs” in October 2025, where AI helped close 23 of Paul Erdős’ famously stubborn problems. Except, and here’s the twist, many weren’t actually solved. They were found. The solutions had existed for years, sometimes decades, buried in obscure journals that nobody had connected to Erdős’ challenges.I call this the...
