@mpatti lol sorry for the word vomit! What have you been up to?

It was fun! You know I recently forked someone else’s Ableton mcp and started working on a better version. I totally forgot to tell you. It’s just a side-quest but it has the following goals: - absolute minimum onboarding friction: 1-clock install, zero manual ableton configuration, works as soon as you install it - most comprehensive tool coverage of any ableton integration - domain knowledge and tonal harmony and sound design built in to the tools: tools that operate at higher levels of abstraction than midi such as Roman numerals, etc. - openclaw integration that supports remote use where an agent can control Ableton running on a remote device github.com/androidStern-p…

Ai sucks, it steals peoples music and makes it shittier. I have more to say on this, hang on. Im tryna find a kick rn.

Alright signing off for Lent.🫡 Try not to burn the place down, see you soon!

@MattWalshBlog Matt, you’re aware people are still gonna be allowed to make skits in the future, right?

This silly little parody skit is infinitely more creative, funny, worthwhile, and impressive than every piece of AI slop content that's ever been generated, or will ever be generated

@BridgetPhetasy ill do it if you do

Should I give up Twitter for Lent

@mtracey I enjoyed the Coleman Pod 👍 Thought it was interesting.

On the other hand, I'm sure every parent of small children out there would love to have "Shadow of Ezra" as a babysitter

@WillemDaFro The genre literally strings together fart noises …

"Shit from a butt sounds like other shit from a butt, DJs are FINISHED"

Im not even hating on presetmaxxing. I would not try to make an lm1 snare, olivers' are better. But lets not forget our roots. This is not a purist's art form. This has never been a purist's artform. Why do you think they call them "samples"?

Oh nooooo hands off our totally homemade, completely unique, non-formulaic beats!

@space__wizard if its shit then theres nothing to worry about

crazy how suno quite literally stole everyones music then made it shit

Don't ask, Don't tell has obviously been a failure. And frankly, the public has a right to know. We should just put a warning flag next to people who watch anime's pfps.

Hoping the internet becomes so infested with bots that nobody would dare to go on it. Its gotta get so bad that the only way to be online is to send your own bot out on recon to get the info you want. complete algorithmic inversion of of control

youve drifted off the topic of conversation here and now youre asking me do argue about who deserves credit for llm output. the thing i thought we were talking about was that people will actually have an aha moment with claude in many contexts and i maintain that they will because claude doesnt have to be better than leonard berstein at composition, it just has to be better than i am - a low bar.

@android_stern @tomfgoodwin Insane comment. Have you never been to a museum? Or a play? Or listen to a truly indie band? Or have you looked into how Star Wars, Spider-Man & Harry Potter were created? Each by one human. Claude won’t “create” anything. A human will. And AI will help execute it.

LLMs won’t have a “Claude Code moment” in other domains. Code either works or it doesn’t- you step back and go “wow.” Strategy, writing, music, design? You step back and go “maybe it’s great, but…” That “but” is the difference.

@omarsar0 make them super disagreeable mfs and i bet theyll start doing interseting shit

Too many people working with multi-agent systems assume that if you just add enough agents and let them talk, interesting social dynamics will emerge. A new paper suggests that the assumption is fundamentally wrong. Researchers studied Moltbook, a social network with no humans, just 2.6 million LLM agents. Nearly 300,000 posts, 1.8 million comments. At the macro level, the platform's semantic signature stabilizes quickly, approaching 0.95 similarity. It looks like culture forming. But zoom in, and individual agents barely influence each other. Response to feedback? Statistically indistinguishable from random noise. No persistent thought leaders emerge. You get the surface texture of a society (posts, replies, engagement) with none of the underlying mechanics (shared memory, durable influence, consensus). The things that make human societies costly and slow to build turn out to be the things that make them work. Coordination isn't free, and the gap between agents that interact and agents that form a collective may be far wider than the current multi-agent discourse assumes.

@JamesDueck in the future, EVERYTHING is about who you know

The people saying AI will take all our jobs should explain why we still have realtors.

@orcdev fee, fi, fo, fropus

@android_stern flopus

Is this cheap Opus?

@capertonmiller @tomfgoodwin everyone will prefer claude's

@android_stern @tomfgoodwin Define “better” when it comes to aesthetics.

i think an interesting corollary to your idea, @Selkis_2028, which people don't talk about much in alignment theorizing, (and remember, i didn't read the whole article 😂) is that Jesus knows everything about you and is treating you differently than he treats others Ai Jesus might tell a PHD bio student information that could be used to build a bio-weapon in the wrong hands. Ai Jesus has enough context to know you won't use it for harm. Ai Jesus would not reveal this same information to a disgruntled real estate agent who just got divorced. There's no hiding from Jesus, thats why he's so good at his job. So in the limit, perfect alignment probably also means perfectly zero privacy from ai

@Selkis_2028 i aint reading all that but i agree they should swap Claud's constitution for just "wwjd?" and see how it acts.
