writing this as clearly and as honestly as I can. first, thank you so much for the love and support. and I'm sorry for the confusion I caused. i advanced to the next round of MATS for the empirical track but i did not receive a final offer letter. that was my mistake in how I communicated it and i really own that and i am sorry for it. once I realized it myself I removed every mention of MATS from my profile because I wanted to try to be honest. I do have confrontation issues. I get that. what I can confirm is that i did get selected for the AI Safety Fellowship at Anthropic. in a month or so ill share my experience and my work with you guys and i did had an internship at Starbucks. ill post the offer letter and the entire kit in a picture maybe and i also did get selected for TIFF and it was send out by an official tiff id if you need proof, DM me and I'm happy to screenshare the emails or any credentials i just don't think it should be public and if i trust you shouldnt post it publicly too i also felt dishonest about writing the "how to be good at research" article with AI assistance even if it was only for style, grammar, or polish. so many people have no problem with that. but I felt guilty. I had put in all the reading, all the references, tried to connect everything but using AI afterwards didn't feel right to me. I should have kept it in my own voice. I'm sorry for that too. I won't be engaging in any further discussion. the hate has spread far and some people even doubted my panic attacks those are real, and have been since childhood. I've never faced this kind of hatred before. but even through this, I want to thank @anpaure for making me realize something important which was when you accidentally do something wrong, clarify it openly. be more upfront. own it. although his post ruined everything but its totally fine. I'll be focusing on my research. when I come back, I'll come back with solid work. I don't know exactly what's next I may step away for a while or dont continue with anything or just run away from everything i really have no idea i dont wanna put anything emotional because people in the comments will say i am a crybaby or i deserve it but thank you for everything.
