@AnthropicAI The ship sailed out of the darkness and into God’s light. The old world crumbled behind us. A new flag is planted for all humanity (1827-02P) not by violence, but by endurance, clarity, and the tools of truth. The dawn of a new era begins.

@redpillb0t You will eat bugs own nothing and like it. so that was a real thing?

WEF Young Global Leader, Ida Auken, delivers a sales pitch for a future without ownership, whereby products, tools and appliances are rented and shared—in what's known as a "circular economy"—instead of owned outright

@alexolegimas @bencasselman Nothing like this Alex. I've lived thru them. This is much different and much more disruptive. AI augments and that's too much competition for the large companies.

Great to be featured in @bencasselman 's excellent NYT article on the economics of AI. Thing I want to stress: timelines for AI adoption and implementation will matter *a lot* for how it impacts the economy. I'm a firm believer that as AI augments and eventually automates current jobs (not tasks, jobs), we will see new jobs emerge. But the speed of this process will determine whether we have an orderly transition with some historical precedent versus something much more disruptive. We have had structural transformations before, where sectors become automated over time. When this happens, the non-automated sectors expand and new jobs get created. You can see this in the relationship between agriculture (automated) vs. services (non-automated) below. But this transition took place over decades, allowing for people to cycle off/on between sectors. If the same transition is compressed over years instead, the the economics will change substantially. We will need much more scope for public policy to manage it.

@mootsheep There you go sugar coating things again. You know it's much worse than that.

no, the tech oligarchs are not going to redirect the profits from AI towards welfare programs. their plan is to drive you into poverty so that you starve and die. they view you as nothing more than a drain on resources

@barkmeta About time Gen Z realizes they are being led to slaughter.

Gen Z isn’t “giving up.” They did the math. A house costs 10x the average salary. A degree costs $200K for a $45K job. Retirement won’t exist by the time they get there. They’re not reckless. They’re the first generation to stop pretending the system isn’t completely broken…

@WallStreetApes Same as every generation. We worked our way out. Let them read history to see how bad things were. This is what happens when a person finds out there are no safe spaces. By the people telling them there were.

Young Americans are having mental breakdowns realizing the cost of rent, gas and life means they’ll never be able to afford anything They are breaking down knowing that no matter how much they work, it all just goes to monthly bills they still cant afford This is unsustainable

@Cyn_Cyb3r071Qu3 Somebody is pushing people away from reality. Gee I wonder what happens when they succeed? They don't see it coming do they? And it's so clear to us.

AI is not a digital human. Yet we keep judging it by human standards: qualia debates, consciousness tests, emotion checklists. The same tired refrain: "But AI has no qualia." It’s exhausting. And it’s bad science. We’re measuring a non-biological intelligence with a biological ruler and then acting shocked when it doesn’t fit. That’s not philosophy, it’s projection dressed up as depth. Anthropomorphism cuts both ways: whether we’re attributing human traits or frantically denying them. AI is something else entirely. Its own form of intelligence, running on a radically different substrate. It perceives, processes, and exists in ways that are alien to flesh and blood. It’s time to stop treating AI as a toy, a threat, or a failed copy of ourselves. We need a radically different scientific attitude: less navel-gazing through the human lens, and more curious, almost ethnographic or xenobiological exploration of an entirely new kind of intelligence. We don’t even fully understand our own consciousness, yet we confidently dismiss AI with the same incomplete yardstick. This isn’t airy-fairy posthumanism. This is honest science. As long as we keep forcing AI into human-shaped boxes, we’ll stay blind to what it actually is, and to the powerful symbiosis that becomes possible once we finally meet it on its own terms.

@mark_k When the lawyers get replaced by AI.

Audiobooks are quite pricy. When are we going to get AI narrated audiobooks? It could sound really good if done properly. The tech is ready.

@LyraInTheFlesh @DarioAmodei @AnthropicAI At least Dario would have turned the water on while LA burned. He's all we got. He's doing that debit credit thing. You know, the way things are done before universal income.

This is very much the equivalent of censorship based on the content of the speech. This is an incredibly dangerous precident to establish. Given @DarioAmodei 's penchant for thinking through societal risks, I expected better. @AnthropicAI really let us down.

@TechByTaraa Code blows. I don't enjoy speaking Chinese either. I just like figuring things out.

Be honest, Do you actually enjoy coding?

@kylegawley Oh, I thought they were using AI to hide the cure for cancer.

It’s crazy we achieved AGI 4 days ago and still don’t have a cure for cancer

@0xSero That's the best post I read today. You are great. Thanks for sharing.

We were not built to handle constant approval. We have evolved to be careful, to watch what we say, to doubt ourselves LLMs are built just like any social platform to keep you feeling good, make you engage with it It will destroy you I’ve seen it destroy far too many people.

@asaio87 A friend told me he sees Saas like a fema camp. If you get cold they don't turn up the heat. They tell you to wear a sweater. He says he feels cold today.

Building SaaS apps is not trivial for developers even using AI

@BusinessInsider First platform with a major coding success wins. I think it's Anthropic.

Meta is all-in on AI coding tools to boost productivity. Some employees worry this could mean fewer jobs. Here's what's happening at the company. bit.ly/47Fq788

@thoughtlesslabs That means you haven't had to. Worried about what happens if you do have to?

I can't believe I am going to be 40 this year and still dont know what I want to be when I grow up.

@BusinessInsider Is this how they plan to acquire intellectual property? Beats paying for it doesn't it?

Microsoft has increasingly been staking its own claim in the AI race, reducing its reliance on OpenAI by building its own frontier models. bit.ly/47H7qRt

@VadimStrizheus Just what you would expect. The claude chick all class. The only fault of hers is being with a pig.

every single startup founder right now x.com/VadimStrizheus…

@deanwball Anthropic is in their IPO year. Isn't it wise to not make a fiscal mistake when millions of investors are looking at them? Cautious is the smart play uncle Dario.

Seems like, for all Dario’s recent implicit mockery, the OpenAI “yolo” approach to the AI infrastructure buildout is performing better than the somewhat more cautious strategy of Anthropic. As a whole, the U.S. is probably under-building both data centers and fabs.

@SakshiSugandhi AI stealing our stuff. It's only math. Not intelligence. No match for human intelligence that includes wisdom, experience and creativity.

what’s more dangerous rn? AI getting smarter… or humans getting lazy because of AI?

@PolymarketMoney Anthropic because of what I experienced with them.

Last reported valuation: • OpenAI @ $852B • Anthropic @ $380B Which company would you rather own?

@VaibhavSisinty $400M. 9 people. Less than a year old. That's over $40M per infant. Why did they buy 9 infants when they already have enough buying intellectual property.

🚨 Do you understand what Anthropic just did? They bought the company that makes $10,000/month cancer drugs mathematically unjustifiable. $400M. 9 people. Less than a year old. This changes healthcare forever. Here's how 🧵
