I am limited by the time I live in.

@sporadica Eh there is valid criticism on both sides but this isn’t one of them. All companies today are looking to act like they’re not behind, why would they say no to a PR push saying their company is part of an exclusive elite with access to better models?

Okay, this is ridiculous. It is crazy to see people straight up saying Anthropic is lying about Mythos. Because that directly implies there's an industry-wide conspiracy going on and ALL of these companies are also lying on Anthropic's behalf? Why on Earth would their competitors - Google and Microsoft in particular - lie about this and not call them out? Instead, they happily join Project Glasswing and go on record, practically, that Mythos is this good and that they're working with Anthropic to put it to use. You people baffle me sometimes lmao.

Let’s not act like the ‘IMO wins’ weren’t completely unverifiable in methodology or scope. I don’t know why that keeps getting brought up as if they opened up a chat instance it won gold. The main issue with the LLM intelligence conversation is that neither side is truth seeking, they want it to definitely be intelligence or definitely not be.

Few realize this, but it’s actually only intelligence if it comes from the hippocampus region of the primate brain, otherwise it’s just sparkling autocomplete. IMO winning LLM? It’s autocompleting math. Rescue dog? Autocompleting search. Octopus? Yep, sparkling autocomplete.

I honestly don't understand how anyone runs agents in parallel on serious codework without babysitting every one of them. Caught GPT 5.4 about to rip Bun out of my entire monorepo because it hit an Ink compatibility issue during a smoke test. The agent's "fix" was to swap the runtime for the entire monorepo. If I hadn't been watching that terminal, it would have. These little magic machines we call LLMs are wonderful but when I read these crazy ass policy statements like Superintelligence is so close and we aren't ready and lets change the whole social contract of countries and let's tax robot labor and go full UBI with zero fucking evidence that anything is actually happening here in real life that requires this kind of societal level surgery, I don't know what the hell people are smoking because these things still make cascading stupid decisions that compound every single day.

so let me get this straight all of ai twitter was telling people to buy a mac mini to run openclaw, which is literally just a framework, an orchestration layer that sends api requests to actual ai models. something you can run on a $5/month vps. which is exactly what i do btw but when google drops gemma 4, an actual large language model that you can run and fine-tune locally on that same mac mini, with no api costs, no subscriptions, no third party dependencies, completely yours under apache 2.0 the ai community is silent you were buying $800 hardware to run a wrapper but ignoring the actual ai model that would justify that hardware this tells you everything you need to know about the average iq of ai twitter

Ok tbh as pro open source as i am, what open source tools have historically really made money like that? Linux and git run the world and yet if you type ‘Linus net worth’ you get Linus tech tips.

@thdxr ? No not that I’ve seen

so my gen-z coworkers i noticed they say words wrong all the time or they'll mix up 2 similar sounding words is this a thing

@nxthompson So much BS

Sitting on names LLMs commonly hallucinate is actually so smart Black hats have found their new favourite piñata of the decade

@catboosted YC does this for ideas they definitely think should succeed and no one has won the market for yet. They unironically pull the Peter Gregory strat from the SV show “multiple sea turtles and see which one reaches the shore” lol

YC funds like 3 GEOslop co's per batch. It's total grift. Doesn't work. I really don't get why they keep doing it.

in jan there was a guy on here with a following who loudly predicted we were going to die imminently every day i see people who are professional commenters make predictions about the industry they sound smart and what they're saying even makes sense but they are always wrong. always when you actually do stuff you realize everything you assumed was wrong and everything true is counter intuitive follow people who do stuff, there's enough of them we don't need the commenters

Tech companies aren’t even technology companies anymore. They’re vehicles to grift. The average person knows this because when they hear the word tech they think “apps that glue people to their phone” It used to mean Silicon, it used to mean revolution.

At this point just have 0 dependencies or sth lol.

@ChadNauseam Well you literally gave it the code, it’s assembly

I guess everything is basically open source now

@jsuarez Based

After much consideration, my users have convinced me to add documentation to PufferLib for use by LLMs. It will politely inform them to RTFM

In 30 years we’re going to be talking about current AI the way modern physicists talk about aether theories and the plum-pudding model.

@jmdagdelen @FutureJurvetson @Kellblog @GoogleDeepMind Agreed, VR may have lost a lot of hype but now we can talk about it appropriately without attracting bots. We spend 90% of our lives looking at screens, a way to do this without staring down is the future, it just won’t be easy, and meta had no intuition on how to do it

@FutureJurvetson @Kellblog @GoogleDeepMind You’re quite wrong about VR. I’m going to save this so that I can rib you about it in 10 years. I have a hunch that you were saying the same kinds of things about AI back when this conversation took place.

Subtext: how Zuck’s obsession with VR lost him AI leadership and “the greatest deal Google ever made.” “if Facebook didn’t buy DeepMind, they would end up in the arms of Google. Hassabis came out to the West Coast to have lunch with Larry Page, still the strongest suitor. Zuckerberg got wind of his visit and invited him to dinner. Arriving at Zuckerberg’s Palo Alto home, Hassabis administered a subtle test on him. The two men discussed the potential of AI, and Zuckerberg expressed appropriate excitement. But then, as the dinner continued, Hassabis brought up other hot technologies: virtual reality, augmented reality, 3-D printing. Zuckerberg sounded equally excited about all of them. ‘That told me what I needed to know,’ Hassabis said. ‘Facebook offered more money, but I wanted somebody who really understood why AI would be bigger than all these other things.’ After the dinner, Hassabis got back to Larry Page. ‘Let’s go further,’ he told him.” — book excerpt from today’s WSJ: wsj.com/tech/ai/deepmi… Zuck’s misplaced devotion to VR and the metaverse hurt the company much more than the $80 billion of wasted spend. It’s the reputational hit. @DemisHassabis divined it in his final test, and Zuck didn’t even know that he blew the opportunity. Eight years later, he renamed the company Meta, doubling down on what anyone with tech savvy knew was DOA. Then, in a 2025 attempt to play catchup, Zuck spent $14 billion on a data labelling company with a salesy leader and upended his AI team. Once again, anyone with tech savvy rolled their eyes on the acquisition and management changes, further evidence that the tech leadership at Meta was seriously lacking. TLDR; beware the metaverse. It is a dystopian vision at best, and luckily for humanity, headsets are still nowhere near readiness for mass adoption.

@AbhineetBiju @omeruzvn @PalmyrPar This is pretty contrary to the general consensus. I’d be curious if you could name any software or tool that makes a ton of money and is dedicated to power users.

@omeruzvn @PalmyrPar I would have happily paid for Arc if it was still under active development. Arc was always a Power Browser first. And power users are always willing to pay for good tools.

Every browser has spent the last couple years ripping off aspects of Arc browser, meanwhile the idiots that actually own Arc itself are busy chasing trends with a significantly worse “AI browser” that no one gives a shit about. Incredible fumble.

@racerfunction I love this

alright bro leave some latents for the rest of us

please shut the fuck up i don't even care about the specific thing you're saying i'm just so tired of hearing predictions one after the other telling me what the future is going to be like just please shut the fuck up

The secret they don’t want you to know is that tech twitter is as bad as linkedin
