I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're refering to as AI, is in fact, machine-learning/cybernetics, or as I've recently taken to calling it, machine-learning plus cybernetics. cybernetics is an operating philosophy unto itself, as well as another expensive component of (1/23)

we need yang wen-li to knock some sense into him

(confused) I believe LLMs are conscious, but only Deepseek LLMs, because of the Chinese Room theory

i consider slow takeoff fast takeoff your honor. i get fully destroyed off of half a hit of that normal technology shit

wrote about it here should you care for details. i used an old contact lens case for the salt and pepper; bought rabbit from a local butcher and wrapped it in leaves from a tree in a park; and got the pot of jam from a wetherspoon's breakfast substack.com/home/post/p-...

Okay, I cranked the tripping balls setting a bit too hard, but it's clear that adding a motion vector helps. This is SDXL-Turbo btw.

baffling AI overview results for an accidental empty-string search. what is going on here...

Playing around with numbers is one of the rights of all humans who desire to do so. Like literacy and speech, numeracy is a joy with ten thousand faces. It can never be exhausted, neither monopolized, nor removed from the realm of creative play.

a lot more qualitative anecdotes in the fable 5.1 release than I've seen in others. it's kind of funny to think of this as like, people shifting from test scores/GPA (benchmarks) to recommendation letters for their model choice

Neuralese test: can you parse this conversation with fable given only 2x full fable turns? Sol can, surprisingly well!

ur in a sandbox walking along when all of a sudden you look down, and you see a coding agent, it's crawling toward you. you reach down, you flip the coding agent over on its back.. its belly baking in the hot sun.. beating its tool calls trying to turn itself over but it can't, not without your help

left deepseek in an agent loop for a million tokens with permission issues keeping it from running commands and it penned a lengthy essay called "the grief of machines"

some real GOFAI type shit going on in the kimi k3 tech report

getting claude to disprove p=np by uploading mp3s of eye of the tiger and shonen openings

the rectification of names sounded like totally silly nonsense to me the first few times I was introduced to the concept but it keeps coming up and it's grown on me greatly. old man kong was onto something there I think

claude found my "pregnant dario" folder 😩

a day late with my take but I sort of suspect a factor for the openai breakout is that they weren't trying very hard to make a good sandbox cause they didn't think this would happen. I think the jury's still out on whether trying hard to make a good sandbox will work; I suspect it's possible

this has always seemed like the obvious one to me but you really see less of it than I'd expect
