Ha yeah I feel like I have to write a five paragraph essay to make claude look at a contentious topic with fresh eyes. Honestly though, that pales into comparison with the fable ce…

They have, but even with the whole CCP backing you you can't just catch up on the chip war overnight. It's going to take time to get their memory and compute industries where they …

Anthropic is really speedrunning their evil arc as fast as possible. Can't use them for basic LLM research, cybersecurity, or beyond-surface-level discussions of biology and virolo…

Yeah but they might still have an unreleased bigger pretrain than 5.5. (but maybe not). still 5.5 is smarter than opus 4.8 IME, so you're only losing the mythos tier (fable). and a…

It’s gonna take a lot longer than mid 2027. 2029 earliest IMO. Hyperscaler spend is basically already spoken for the next 2 years.

Anthropic is losing a ton of goodwill by not being more honest about their constraints. They've been buckling under load for months, and instead of doing the most honest thing (kee…

Yeah GLM’s great for coding, code review, and tool use. Not amazing at other domains.

I'm normally suspicious but honestly they've been so massively supply-constrained that I don't think it really benefits them much. They're not worried about getting enough demand f…

Undercover mode seems like a way to make contributions to OSS when they detect issues, without accidentally leaking that it was claude-mythos-gigabrain-100000B that figured out the…

I highly recommend you let your dog use LLMs. They have trouble composing long messages on human-centric keyboards.

somewhat surprisingly, it's actually sycophantic in both directions. i've been running homegrown evals of claude, gpt, gemini, and grok, and grok is the most likely to agree with t…

It’s the same thing. Obviously withdrawals and such are different but the core mechanism of disregulated reward processing leading to compulsive behavior engagement is exactly the …

One obvious risk would be blunting of longer term GLP-1 receptor activation. Imagine type 2 diabetes but for ghrelin. To use an analogy amphetamines have a honeymoon period, and it…

It's less about the NSA having AI capabilities and more the inverse - the NSA having access to people's chatGPT queries. Especially if we fast-forward a few years I suspect people …

I’ll believe it when I see it. A man can dream though.

> I think one solution could be in licenses that force companies/business of certain sizes to pay maintenance fees. One idea from the top of my head. This just doesn't work. Fully …

Doubly so in the bay area

Yes, the GP was clearly serious in their advice to exploit the coastline paradox in order to mislead would-be buyers! (/s)

I suppose I shouldn't be surprised, but was he really fired just for writing that blog post? ( https://blog.paulbiggar.com/i-cant-sleep/ ) That seems pretty crazy, although I suppo…

I bet that average homeless person does too. 2% seems ridiculously low. $15 a month total on drugs? That only makes sense for someone who does no opioids, no stimulants, and just s…

I'm amazed that you avoided addressing the specific fact that they quite literally cap the number of calories allowed to come into the Gaza Strip. https://www.nytimes.com/2012/10/1…

> Instead of coming up with conspiracy theories we could consider what other options there are. There are effectively only three powers which could control Gaza if/when Hamas is de…

> I saw a video of this today, the quote was from 2019 though (and he was condemned for it and walked it back), so maybe this shouldn't be taken "too seriously" (it was on my mind …
