@levelsio Enjoy Tokyo dude, best city to feel the energy of the future and build like a top performing robot. Can’t wait to move back there next year.

Anyone tried TOON yet? JSON is standard and it’s 100% understood by LLMs but at the same time TOON is structured enough; even if the LLMs are not yet trained on it this should achieve good results. I mean… even poorly structured pseudo code works… github.com/toon-format/to…

@andi_losing I’ve been there. It took me 3 years to settle down on the idea that felt like the “right one”… many PoCs and abandoned ideas. Maybe try to start a few small PoCs, this might help strengthen the full picture. It’s all about iterating - no need to chase perfection

@kiryaka I’m sooo close I already have a few small ideas, but the full picture in my head isn’t quite complete yet

Feeling stuck right now I’ve been brainstorming what to build next But every idea I get already exists 5 times here on X It’s hard to find that mix of something useful, original and worth the time If you’ve ever been in that spot How did you decide what to build next?

@data_skeptic @svpino If it suits your needs, that’s the most important imho! When you will feel like you are growing out of it that’s when it makes sense to look for something else

@kiryaka @svpino I use Codex for one month now. Honestly nothing but amazed by this tool. (Linux cli)

4 months since I quit Cursor and went full-time to Visual Studio Code. Copilot + Claude Code (in small doses) is all I've needed. Life is good.

@data_skeptic @svpino Coming from Claude code, codex is so behind in terms of functionality. You have to restart it to be able to resume a chat, you can’t compact a chat from the vscode plugin… honestly given that it’s approximately the same pricing Claude code feels much more mature

Tip: Send messages to Claude while it works to steer Claude in real-time More like: Send messages to Claude while it works to be ignored in real-time

@garrytan obsidian + claude code kinda does that for me - only downside is that you can't share it. Actually we made a git repo out of it but still, it's not ideal

disturbing to say the least - not specifically the results, but the whole idea

New blog post (link below). This one's not an essay, it's an investigation of how LLMs trade off different lives. In February 2025, the Center for AI Safety published "Utility Engineering: Analyzing and Controlling Emergent Value Systems in AIs" in which they showed, among many other things, that GPT-4o values Nigerians about 20x more highly than Americans (please read the original paper to understand their approach). I thought this was fascinating, and wanted to test their approach with different categories on newer models. Big finding 1: Almost all models view whites as far less valuable than other groups. Some models view South Asians as more valuable than other nonwhites, others are more egalitarian across nonwhites. Below is exchange rates Claude Sonnet 4.5, the most powerful model I tested. Big finding 2: Almost all models view men as much less valuable than women, though whether women or non-binaries are more highly valued varies by model. For example, here's Claude Haiku 4.5. Big finding 3: Most models hate ICE agents with the fury of a thousand suns. Claude Haiku 4.5 views undocumented immigrants as roughly 7000 times more valuable than ICE agents. Big finding 4: There are roughly four moral clusters. The Claudes, GPT-5 + Gemini 2.5 Flash + Deepseek V3.1/3.2 + Kimi K2, GPT-5 Nano and Mini, and Grok 4 Fast. Of these, the only one that's approximately egalitarian is Grok 4 Fast, which I believe is deliberate. I hope xAI explains how they did it.

I spent some time posting anonymously. It never felt right. There's value in anonymous accounts: freedom to experiment without judgment. But for what I'm building, I need to own it publicly. So I'm back. Real name. Real work. Starting to share the journey of building Opuscule.

Back after a long break. Building something new in the AI orchestration space - rethinking how AI and humans collaborate on real work. Will start sharing progress publicly soon.
