The democratization of game development I dreamed of as a child is finally happening! Game looks rad man ❄️😎

@karpathy Bro discovered talk therapy from first principles

One pattern I find useful for working with LLMs is a nice long ramble session. Sometimes the LLM needs more bits to understand what you're trying to achieve, but you're too lazy to type them. In these cases I like to lean back, switch to /voice and just ramble for like 10 minutes, total mess, anything goes, full stream of consciousness. Sometimes I declare it up top, something like "switching to speech recognition sorry for any typos...". Sometimes I turn it into a small interview of a few turns. But I find that the LLMs are somehow very good at reconstructing long incoherent rambles and often their echo of your own tangle of thoughts comes out quite a bit cleaner than what you started with. The result is that you improve the mind meld and have to correct things less from that point on.

Building an RTS game with @OpenAI ChatGPT Work has been a game changer. Coordinating design, Blender asset creation, coding agents, and documentation from one workflow lets me build a game that would have been impossible as a solo developer a few years ago. Thanks @gdb! #ChatGPTWork

@thsottiaux I think realtime chat for planning and idea phase is really awesome but passing those ideas into codex for implementation can feel a bit disjointed, even with a common GitHub repo and solid guardrails there’s still some copy pasting that feels unnecessary.

How can we make ChatGPT better. It’s already on your phone, but what do you wish would happen more or less of when you open the app. How can it bring you more joy?

@thsottiaux I’m building the RTS game I’ve always wanted to build since I was a kid! It’s been amazing finally bringing the vision to life.

What are you building this weekend?

@negligible_cap The takeaway from Kimi 3 is not "Wow Moonshot is a world class frontier lab!" its "Wow frontier labs have no moat at the enterprise scale"

The fact that $BABA owns 36% of Moonshot (is their biggest single investor) but dropped 4% overnight seems like evidence that there's a lot more than just Kimi to this tech selloff News on Moonshot's most recent valuation was in June, when they were looking to raise at a $30B valuation. Before that, their most recent valuation was $20B post-money in May. So Alibaba now owns 35% of an AI company that's highly competitive with Anthropic and OpenAI, but that company is currently valued at around 3% of their values. Either Moonshot is grossly undervalued or Anthropic and OpenAI are grossly overvalued. Both things cannot be true. BABA selling off despite the Kimi model release is evidence of the latter.

I was at No-Gi BJJ class last night and my coach was like "This next technique, I thought I came up with this on my own but I was at a seminar two years ago and they called it 'The Elvis System.'🤷‍♂️" It was scarf hold from side control bottom. 8/10 would use

Nithya Raman didn't "blow" anything. This isn't incompetence. It isn't an "oopsie!" IT'S FRAUD. They're stealing your fucking money!

@stevesi Nebula

Is there a name agreed to that replaces "cloud" when data centers are in space?

@thsottiaux Computer use and working with enterprises to eradicate form filling entirely!

Here you are! Thinking I am about to announce a reset. But no. I’m just scrolling twitter and looking for feedback on ChatGPT Work. What should we improve?

@FakePsyho tl;dr as in it was too long for you so you didn't read it

tl;dr: "maybe we should regulate AI?" corposlop padded with technomessianism

@Mel_Ankoly @bryan_johnson You should read the relevant parts of the book and find out what it says. A lot of people live by it. Worst case you’ll come out informed about the perspective of a billion people Best case it’s like the king in yellow but instead of madness you get the kingdom of God.

@TravisHyer @bryan_johnson I thought that man was god itself?

The world wants me to die. My incurable disease diagnosis became global news. It was omnipresent on social media and 1,900 articles were written in a matter of days. Many were saddened. However, joy dominated the commentary. People pointed to schadenfreude, the pleasure of another's failure. Yes, there’s that. There is a special place in people’s hearts that loves to see others fail, especially when that person’s presence threatens their own psychological stability in some way or helps them feel better about themselves. But, if you look over the social media commentary about me, you’ll see that pattern: “he deserved it.” I deserved it because I challenged death. The crowd was running a deeply rooted psychological script that represents the oldest, most deeply embedded stories of human culture. This was the first story ever written down, 4,000 years ago. Gilgamesh sought eternal life after losing someone he loved, only to have the plant of youth stolen by a serpent as he bathed. Leaving him to accept his mortality. Asclepius became so skilled at rejuvenation that he raised the dead. As punishment, Zeus struck him down with a thunderbolt to enforce life and death authority. This is the story of Jesus. Pontius Pilate offered a choice between a thief and the immortalist, and the crowd demanded the execution. People need this story conclusion to keep themselves sane. The challenger must lose and the loss must appear deserved. It’s a shield of self preservation. For if death is inevitable, their existence and that of their loved ones is justified and unavoidable. If death is not inevitable, nothing about their reality is safe. I occupy the same philosophical and archetypal position as Gilgamesh, Asclepius and Jesus. This statement will draw outrage and accusations of blasphemy, hubris and narcissism. Nevertheless, it’s the pattern that has repeated itself for thousands of years. Death has been the omnipresent concern of the human race. It encapsulates our greatest fears, joy and curiosities. The discourse around it changes over time; however, the fundamentals remain unchanged. What’s different about this moment, that is unlike any other moment, is that physical death may no longer be inevitable. What if I didn’t deserve it? And what if I am your ally, and not a threat?

Don't harm opossums! They’re harmless and actually really useful. They keep pests in check (eating ticks, roaches, rats, and scorpions), clean up dead animals, and help spread seeds. Basically, they’re nature’s cleanup crew

@ForeignPolicy Raw rare earths aren't rare. Don't dig up the fucking Amazon for it. We need advanced manufacturing/refinement capacity not raw Ytterbium etc.

Max is going into a big fight and feeling himself, guys get like this at the gym too. Its your job as a friend not to quash their confidence (too hard.) That being said, DC would cream Max in under 30 seconds in a cage fight. Off the couch. After a night of drinking.Both know it

DC gatecrashes Max Holloway’s interview 😂 Max: “hey fat ass” DC: “you keep going up in weight, you’ll be a fat ass” DC: “I will f*ck you up” Max: “at a buffet, maybe”

@DKThomp I don’t think it’s fear. Nor about longevity. The vast majority of (admittedly skewed) feedback I get about the alcohol episode of the HLP is how much better people feel not drinking or that they never liked it & now feel they have good reasons to abstain.
