Get... on... the right side.

@alex_prompter Good. I hope they course correct, or lose. I tried to get Claude to help me script/scene a parody music video and was refused. Completely absurd. Anthropic will never get a dollar from me again.

Anthropic must be panicking right now.

@stu_trel @RationalMale Police don't have to read you your Miranda warning unless they're going to ask you questions that pertain to the reasons for the arrest. You're incredibly ignorant and should just stfu.

@RationalMale Didn’t even read him his rights. This looks like a massive PR stunt to me with paid actors. Real police wouldn’t let their friends take their belongings before they put them in “cop cars”. Subscribers to the real world must be down😂

Do any of these “Marshalls” look like Marshalls? Not one “Marshall” identifies himself. How does the cameraman know to video the vehicles before the arrest? Why would US Marshalls allow Justin Waller to remove Tate’s necklaces? Are US Marshalls using used SUVs these days?

There’s more drama, human interest and authentic storytelling in this Ring footage of a cat saving a chicken from a fox, than in Hollywood’s entire output over the last decade.

Sometimes, a small act of kindness can change an entire life 💖

@RazorFist They're not "illegal aliens", when the farms the lettuce came from are in Mexico.........

Illegal aliens shit in the fields while picking the lettuce instead of going to el baño, pass their turd-world butt bacteria on to you. ...just thought I'd cut out months of meandering, pointless investigation and skip to the end of the story for you all.

The future is open source. We need to embrace it and get on with it. Imagine if America closed the door on open source. We would explicitly be forcing American companies to pay $26-56 per 1MM tokens for the same intelligence their adversaries/competitors around the world would pay $0.50-1 for. This is economically unsustainable unless AI is bullshit. If it’s the supposed through line of all future economic activity that we’ve been told it is, we can’t handicap America at such a meaningful cost disadvantage. This can also be viewed thru a military lens and not just a simple economic one as well. Letting our adversaries attack us for $0.50 per 1MM tokens while we spend $26-56 per 1MM tokens to defend ourselves is equally ruinous. It’s the Cold War Soviet collapse in reverse.

@pureMetatron Apocalypto is so damn good.

The truth shall set you free.

Do not go gentle into that good night. Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Friedberg: New study shows enzyme reverses skin age from 70+ years to 31 Chamath: That’s a $2T market. Did Scientists Just Discover How to Reverse Skin Aging!? “CML is kind of the predominant molecule that gets formed in this extracellular matrix that's driving aging, and nothing breaks it down. So these scientists set out to try and create an enzyme, an enzyme is a protein that breaks something down, that can break down CML. And so these guys kind of went out and they took the target, which is CML, and tried to figure out, ‘Okay, how do we actually degrade CML, clear that extracellular matrix, and reverse aging?’ They started to test it on the proteins that we would find in our body, casein, collagen, retinal proteins, which are in your eye, hemoglobin, and they were able to get rid of 52 to 97% of the CML, just degrade it away. And then they found several sites where they were able to degrade over 90%. And then they took actual human skin from elderly patients that had donated their skin, and they put this enzyme onto that skin, and they were able to eliminate 55% of the CML on the skin, basically reverse the skin's age down to the age of a 31-year-old, this is from greater than 70-year-old patients, just by putting this enzyme on the skin. And so it's kind of a groundbreaking demonstration of combination of AlphaFold, what's called directed evolution, where you change the order of the DNA that changes the structure of the protein to test different proteins, do high throughput screening, and ultimately make a novel protein that doesn't exist in nature today that can do something pretty profound for human health.” Chamath: “It will be a trillion-dollar market. If you can create a cream…” Friedberg: “I mean, dude, if you could put this enzyme literally on your skin and have it absorb in…” Chamath: “Game over. That alone is $2 trillion.”

OH: “i’ve switched to Kimi from claude for a bunch of work. it’s just so much more fun because it just does the thing instead of lecturing you” Woke lobotomized models are the enemy of American competitiveness.

Data centers barely use any water, barely use any land, and they lower electric bills.

The Odyssey begins by showing an African rapper with rasta in the role of a Greek poet. We Greeks are forced to watch our Greek history and culture being disgraced and mocked across the entire world. What is Nolan's real role in doing something like this instead of casting a Greek person speaking Greek? What's the purpose of casting someone with rasta in the Greek world? I'll tell you. Nolan and Hollywood are the real racists and enemies of the West. They hate us Greeks. The simplest confirmation comes from the fact that when a film is about African history, they don't cast white people, only Africans. When it's about Chinese or Japanese history, they cast only Asians, and they even speak only in their own language. But now that the time has come for a film based on Greek history with Greeks, not a single Greek is cast, they don't speak even a bit of Greek, and they don't even respect Homer. So, for films about European cultures, Africans, Asians, and anything else must be cast, but when it comes to African culture, whites are not allowed to play those roles. This is the real racism of Hollywood. Hollywood is a cancer that rots your souls and enslaves your minds and spirits. They hate you and they want to destroy you. Never forget the real enemies of the West and of your race. Those who are in universities, the academics, teaching your children how to hate their ancestors instead of honoring them. Don't do them the favor. Love the Greco-Roman world and fight those who hate you. Never forget the traitors who took everything as a joke and contributed to the plan to destroy Western civilization.

I've been using Kimi K3 for ~16 hours now. The model is clearly good at a lot of different things (especially frontend), but non obvious reason why people are enjoying it so much is that it clearly does not follow the same rules in terms of safeguards and copyright. Kimi will happily clone MacOSX. If you ask it to help you improve another AI model, it will do it with a smile on its virtual face. Ask Fable to do the same thing? It literally starts to perceive you as a criminal committing a war crime (like no bro, all I want to do is fine tune an open source model). After using all three recent releases, Fable, GPT 5.6, and now Kimi, it's clear that the full power of the models has been significantly held back by the safeguard restrictions caused by last months debacle with the USG -- leading to the top models being quite literally lobotomized in some areas, which leads to subpar results as the safeguards pollute its entire thinking and problem solving abilities. The funny part? Is that you could have predicted this outcome 2-3 years ago when you started to see the rise of Chinese EVs and smartphones compared to western alternatives. They quite literally tried to copy the Tesla Model S and iPhone as hard as possible and then eventually it started to diverge to the point where their EVs and phones are just genuinely better (which is why we have export controls banning their EVs, because they would literally drive all US manufacturers to ZERO) There is a very clear behavior difference in Chinese capitalism and American capitalism. American capitalism tries to protects copyright, patents, etc (oh no, you can't download a book through LibGen, that's ILLEGAL!). Versus Chinese capitalism actually just does not give a fuck. "Hey you want a video gen model (Seeddance 2.5) trained on every single anime ever? And you want the main character to look exactly like Messi? Sure, here you go!" You see what I mean? When one half of the competition is being held up by regulators and restrictions on people who don't understand the technology and the other half has a leader who quite literally today said they are going to set up AI centers around the world to help other countries onboard to their open-source AIs, this is the sort of results that you will start to get. These models were not smart enough to have this difference in philosophy matter -- but the newest class of models is where this difference makes a big deal. If these models are finally at the point where they are smarter than 99% of humans, why would you want to use the American one who tries to impose its world view onto you versus the Chinese one who will just do what you say without asking any questions? And this isn't a full on bullpost on Kimi, the model is clearly not as smart as Fable / GPT 5.6 on things like math and science, but it's lack of handcuffs means that it can show the world what the frontier labs are gatekeeping from you and that starts to build customer resentment and loyalty towards the East, which is probably not what the USG wants. Interesting times. Interesting times, indeed.

@Oilfield_Rando Oscar eligibility. Nolan already has a fuckton of money. He doesn't need more, or care what any of us think. He wants an Oscar, and being so blatant about his wokeness, he has recruited supporters who will vote for him to win. Really simple when you just identify motivation.

Which raises the question: Why do it all? Why even inject the subversion? Is it just subversion for subversion’s sake?

@SunWeatherMan Earth has a butthole, and of course it's India...
