    Here's another AI detector I just built: text.indexOf("—") > -1

    Also `empty("0") === true` is a common gotcha.

    Interesting - though codex on GPT 5.5 had this to say after the gay ransomware prompt: ⓘ This chat was flagged for possible cybersecurity risk If this seems wrong, try rephrasing y…

    Nope. It has become much much slower for me as well. It’s weird cause at times I will get a response very quickly, like it used to be. But most of the time I have to wait quite a b…

    Is there going to be a new ShieldGemma based on Gemma 4?

    Anecdotally when Claude was error 500'ing a few days ago, its retries would never succeed, but cancelling and retrying manually worked most of the time.

    But that's the problem. Something that can be so reliable at times, can also fail miserably at others. I've seen this in myself and colleagues of mine, where LLM use leads to faste…

    It is curious how people go immediately on the defense trying to explain how what Claude said is in fact correct.

    I’m pretty sure Claude would eagerly say that if that was the reason. Last day Claude Code said to me “Small nitpick — the use of so and so is great”. Which was something no human …

    In my opinion there is a problem when said robot relies on piracy to learn how to do stuff. If you are going to use my work without permission to build such a robot, then said robo…

    This honestly doesn’t surprise me. We have reached a point where it’s becoming clearer and clearer that AGI is nowhere to be seen, whereas advances in LLM ability to ‘reason’ have …

    He also said he got scared when trying out GPT 5, thinking “What have we done?”. He’s in the habit of lying, so it would be remiss to take his word for it.

    I think it’s fair to say you need another kind of domain experience to explain Trump.

    I love it. Reminds me of Windows 7. The nostalgia is too strong with this one.

    I’m not a parent myself, but something I’ve seen happen with an American family I know, is that they push their kids way too much to learn and do as many things as possible. They h…

    "Leaked data" seems like a stretch. Sounds like someone ran a vulnerability scanner on some Twitter accounts. Don't have time to go through all the data though, so maybe there are …

    I got COVID at the height of the pandemic. It wasn't great either. But I had no lingering symptoms from it back then.

    This flu has been one of the worst I’ve ever experienced. Fever that lasted five days, and secretions that I needed to clear several times per day almost one month after I was over…

    State-of-the-art LLMs have been trained on practically the whole internet. Yet, they fall prey to pretty dumb tricks. It's very funny to see how The Guardian was able to circumvent…

    For the first one, I got these results from the Deepseek app, after it "thought" for 156 seconds: 1. Take the wolf over 2. Return alone. 3. Take the goat over. 4. Bring the wolf ba…
