@schisofrenia 'monitoring the situation'

everything i say and do is investment, medical, legal, and tax advice. You should be tracking my every move

@tenobrus might as well place them around the crib | just like hanging paintings at that point

anyway despite this i live in san francisco so i do personally own a total of 4 separate 4k monitors, two of which are also 120hz. they make for very pretty wallpaper displays

i don't really use external monitors. this isn't a recent development, it's not agent-mediated, it's been true since the beginning of my career. i often *have* external monitors, sometimes even plugged in to my macbook, but i tend to maybe put one browser window on one and then forget about it, and eventually once i shift to a new position and unplug slowly drift towards not even bothering. i know this is a wildly unpopular position as a developer and sometimes i wonder why i can't seem to make good use of them when they seem so critical for others! something about it definitely just comes from getting very used to this mode of working thru high school and college when desks and monitors were rare luxuries. another aspect might be my emacs-training, the sense of being able to feel all my context out there just a few keystrokes and buffer switches away, and not worrying so much about whether it's literally on screen to glance to. another might be how focus works for me, keeping my brainstate filtered down to one smallish context window at a time and intentionally swapping between windows rather than implicitly having a much larger visible window? but at this point i've mostly given up on changing it. i'm a laptop worker and that's okay.

Reproducing all of Schmidhuber’s papers (1990-2025) using an AI coding assistant. Cool project by @yaroslavvb! It even reproduced the “World Models” paper by me and @SchmidhuberAI with a toy env, with a full VAE + RNN world model implementation. Project: github.com/cybertronai/sc…

@segyges Pragmatics over Metrics Alone

i think i am convinced that the paradigm of constructing ever more elaborate alignment benchmarks is inherently goodhartable and you just have to have an eye on your deployment and make sure it's running at a speed and scale you can meaningfully monitor

just incredible poasting consistency

One of the pros of working with AI as a coding assistant in an artistic context is the ability to quickly build tools to explore specific aspects of the artwork. In this case, I needed to craft a simple algorithm to generate palettes of 10 colors. In less than a day, I was able to extensively explore 5-6 algorithms within the constraints of my project, by building various tools for visualisation. This used to take much more time, or be of a lesser quality due to a lack of time. You can see here different algorithms at the top in a narrowed parametric space, and 1 algorithm mapped to the whole space (3 values between 0 and 1) below. Makes it super easy to chose the right fit at a glance.

@segyges @hecubian_devil Cognitive Dissonance / Distance | Cannot Feel Themselves Boil

If you tell leftists we should appeal to the religious beliefs of the working class to meet them where they’re at, everyone applauds. If you tell them we should appeal to normies’ beliefs and fears about AI to motivate a movement for regulation, they say “you fell for the hype”

good night | not sure what I want this profile to be quite yet | maybe articles | uncertain | maybe generative art | uncertain | project disclosures | uncertain | myself | uncertain | non-committal & avoidant nature | indecisive | exploration / ideation / experimentation all that remains 'The Slate Has Been Wiped Clean' & 'So I Begin Again'

@ShimazuSystems I can see it

If theres no media attached to this post its because this stupid app is broken, if there is - i cant see it, so idk

There is no other OS on this system - aka it now works standalone I'm gunna let this run for 48 hours to test gunna bin windows off the other old all in one thing. This one happens to be touch screen (but has a Pentium), so have figured touch works too, which is kinda neat.

@architecht0nics @Ghostrunner_83 'Waiting for Godot' | Little Demigods

@Ghostrunner_83 Imprecise way of saying vastly more intelligent than humans. So could just be a lesser deity.

Hugo de Garis called it: “the 21st century will be dominated by the question whether humanity should build artilects, machines of godlike intelligence... I see humanity splitting into two major political groups, which in time will become increasingly bitterly opposed.”

@ShimazuSystems INTERNAL vs EXTERNAL Facing/Minded

Me doing my thing, with nothing other than my vibes powering this vision this is based on how I think things *should look*, not how I think other people should think it looks

@somewheresy ever since I noticed the Escher-like/adjacent pfp; Demis has captured my subtle attention

Whenever I see Dario and Sama have a contest of who can go more Mark Zuckerberg I think about how Google Deepmind just keeps chugging along releasing pretty great models and not blowing themselves up on comms or hyping up wook tourists in SF.
