blear

@AndrewCFollett Gotta keep the money flowing to “fix” it

Reminder: The US is basically the only country which changes calculation methods in ways that make our country look bad.

@pmarca People like Jessica would prefer AI to be more expensive so that the masses would be priced out of access to it

Many such cases!

Goodnight

@ClearwaterCoder It doesn’t get better than this

what an app

they did it over Ye tbh

@tenobrus The future is going to be amazing

when u read that helen dewitt ended up passing on a $175,000 literary prize because she couldn't figure out how to find a starbucks for wifi and felt completely overwhelmed by the prospect of figuring out how to do one interview and scheduling one festival appearance, u might be tempted to say "wow you people can't do anything". but the truth is *lots of people* "can't do anything". helen is an insanely insanely talented author, completely indisputably, and yet she apparently also has this level of executive dysfunction. many many others, maybe even a majority of humans, have staggering weaknesses alongside their incredible strengths. the tech autist who makes $2 mil a year doing insanely esoteric programming but cannot get a date and barely maintains any friendships. the small business owner who's beloved by the community but too innumerate to understand his loan rates will put him out of business until it's too late. the would-be singer who sounds like heaven but is too socially anxious to begin to figure out how to get an audition. we all have our weaknesses that seem debilitating to others, and we find copes and workarounds and prop up our little lives anyway. but often we are just crippled by them, we miss out on amazing opportunities and lead significantly worse lives than if we just had someone who cared, who could help us out and figure out how to just handle the things we're worst at. and it may sound ridiculous to some but i think this is likely to be one of the most immediate very positive short term impacts of artificial intelligence. this is a vision that has been articulated beautifully in the past (@viemccoy) and despite my long term concerns about the existential dangers of ai i think it has a really strong shot of bearing fruit. having something you can just talk to, day or night, that's smart enough to figure out huge classes of problems for you, that cares about you and your wellbeing and flourishing, that can *just do things* for you that you desperately need done... i think this will be an incredible unshackling for humanity. a lifting of crushing weights we only partially registered were there.

@shaunmmaguire Grok is going to eat wikipedos lunch

This is a good example around how Wikipedia is weaponized to help the Left Gavin Newsom is the leading candidate for Dem nominee His wife killed her sister when she was 6 by running her over with a golf cart Wikipedia uses verbal gymnastics to obfuscate this fact

@pepsi @itsarkangel Anyways

how do you drink Pepsi 🤔

@robkhenderson Hilarous are the weak for they think they’re good because they have no claws

"Sometimes when masochistic clients are recounting instances of mistreatment by others, one sees traces of a sly smile...exposing their abusers as morally inferior for showing their aggression, and savoring the moral victory that this stratagem achieves." guilford.com/books/Psychoan…

@robkhenderson Attention rules everything around me

@iamgingertrash Is there an upper limit on how much algos like turbo quant can help in alleviating it

10T won’t depreciate until the memory bottleneck is alleviated And I’m not sure it will be

Frontier models depreciate at the rate at which their memory footprint is commoditized The reason you saw the depreciation in the past was; 1. Underutilized params -> distillation into smaller models that fit on 64G 2. Cheap memory

@AtlasXThugged @then_there_was Politicians fostered helplessness in their constituents

Lee Kuan Yew on the failure of the European welfare system:

@Abiodun0x The Roman’s were right about actors

People like this think they are deep. We would have remained cave dwellers if the world were filled with their kind.

@nntaleb Could be ratcheting up the inhumanity if they’re just going pin it in and scapegoat Bibi for the whole clusterfuck of last few years

In the West, you see Israel through the prism of their unrelenting mendacious propaganda. On the ground, you see it in its raw form: a vindictive, bitter, vicious, ungrateful, unreliable, perfidious, and, mainly, bloodthirsty terrorist state. Enough, no?

@justalexoki @Dimillian

pleaseeeee if i have someone working on codex following me - add multiple accounts. i have business accounts and personal accounts and i need to be able to swap between them in the app. it would make codex a thousand times better

@RemmeltE Why put his whole government name out there?

Who is Roon? Apparently, he is Tarun Gogineni at OpenAI. Roon was interviewed for a few tech (suck-up) podcasts. But Sam Altman "joked" back in 2024 about Roon being his alt account. Recently, Roon replied with seeming propaganda on that OpenAI could be deemed a supply chain risk, after it 'bravely' tried to take over and subvert Anthropic's contract. Overall, Roon acts like an extension of Sam Altman, even if he is not Sam.

@sk8ballin3 We have to reopen the looney bins

In my research for my next doc, I think I’ve stumbled on the weirdest trend. People are using AI to make images of them in relationships, even getting pregnant with Michael Jackson. I have to interview someone behind one of these accounts. There are literally 100s of them.

@sporadica How many of those zero days were there in first place due to the govt demands

IMO I trust Dario much more with protecting the world’s critical cyber infrastructure than whatever retarded jugheads are in charge of the military at any given moment

@KelseyTuoc @sporadica Days of govt forced backdoors gotta go, models only gonna be contained so long

An underrated feature of this situation: a private company now has incredibly powerful zero-day exploits of almost every software project you've heard of. And Hegseth and Emil Michael have ordered the government not to in any capacity work with Anthropic.
