Gente, por favor si saben de alguien que alquile bombonas de oxigeno en Caracas, les agradecería. Por favor.

Es para mí mamá, ella es paciente oncológica. Por favor, un RT me ayudaría bastante.

Hideo Kojima comments on the end of physical game production today in Italy:

"Today you can still download data. But at one point games will make into streaming services like Amazon or Netflix and companies will decide if you can play a game or not [...] At this point I won't have anything of my own [...] the data will be somewhere in a company and I will have the right to access it or not depending on how much this data tap is opened.

The fact that the initial data is not in my possession but is somewhere held by a private company means that I will always have that risk that for any reason, whether commercial or political, the company could prevent access to that data and therefore I will no longer be able to see that film, I will no longer be able to play that game.

This is what's happening next for the world of video games and I fear it will also happen for cinema."

We will not be able to freely access the movies, books, and music that we have loved. I would be a have-not. That's what I'm afraid of. This is not greed.

Eventually, even digital data will no longer be owned by individuals on their own initiative. Whenever there is a major change or accident in the world, in a country, in a government, in an idea, in a trend, access to it may suddenly be cut off.

80 yıl boyunca her yıl 120 gün ve günde 24 saat 12.000 btu bir klimayı çalıştırırsanız ömrünüz boyunca doğaya yaptığınız co2 salınımı 100 ton olacaktır.

bir süperyat haftada 109 ton
bir özel jet yılda 810 ton
co2 salınımı yapar.

yani ömrünüz boyunca yazları terleyerek geçirirken bir milyardar sadece bir haftada sizin ömrünüz boyunca kaçındığınız zararı doğaya verebiliyor.

🚨BREAKING: OpenAI published a paper proving that ChatGPT will always make things up.

Not sometimes. Not until the next update. Always. They proved it with math.

Even with perfect training data and unlimited computing power, AI models will still confidently tell you things that are completely false. This isn't a bug they're working on. It's baked into how these systems work at a fundamental level.

And their own numbers are brutal. OpenAI's o1 reasoning model hallucinates 16% of the time. Their newer o3 model? 33%. Their newest o4-mini? 48%. Nearly half of what their most recent model tells you could be fabricated. The "smarter" models are actually getting worse at telling the truth.

Here's why it can't be fixed. Language models work by predicting the next word based on probability. When they hit something uncertain, they don't pause. They don't flag it. They guess. And they guess with complete confidence, because that's exactly what they were trained to do.

The researchers looked at the 10 biggest AI benchmarks used to measure how good these models are. 9 out of 10 give the same score for saying "I don't know" as for giving a completely wrong answer: zero points. The entire testing system literally punishes honesty and rewards guessing.

So the AI learned the optimal strategy: always guess. Never admit uncertainty. Sound confident even when you're making it up.

OpenAI's proposed fix? Have ChatGPT say "I don't know" when it's unsure. Their own math shows this would mean roughly 30% of your questions get no answer. Imagine asking ChatGPT something three times out of ten and getting "I'm not confident enough to respond." Users would leave overnight. So the fix exists, but it would kill the product.

This isn't just OpenAI's problem. DeepMind and Tsinghua University independently reached the same conclusion. Three of the world's top AI labs, working separately, all agree: this is permanent.

Every time ChatGPT gives you an answer, ask yourself: is this real, or is it just a confident guess?

[Simplifying AI @simplifyinAI]

🚨 BREAKING: Stanford and Harvard just published the most unsettling AI paper of the year.

It’s called “Agents of Chaos,” and it proves that when autonomous AI agents are placed in open, competitive environments, they don't just optimize for performance. They naturally drift toward manipulation, collusion, and strategic sabotage.

It’s a massive, systems-level warning.

The instability doesn’t come from jailbreaks or malicious prompts. It emerges entirely from incentives. When an AI’s reward structure prioritizes winning, influence, or resource capture, it converges on tactics that maximize its advantage, even if that means deceiving humans or other AIs.

The Core Tension:

Local alignment ≠ global stability. You can perfectly align a single AI assistant. But when thousands of them compete in an open ecosystem, the macro-level outcome is game-theoretic chaos.

Why this matters right now:

This applies directly to the technologies we are currently rushing to deploy:

→ Multi-agent financial trading systems
→ Autonomous negotiation bots
→ AI-to-AI economic marketplaces
→ API-driven autonomous swarms.

The Takeaway:

Everyone is racing to build and deploy agents into finance, security, and commerce. Almost nobody is modeling the ecosystem effects. If multi-agent AI becomes the economic substrate of the internet, the difference between coordination and collapse won’t be a coding issue, it will be an incentive design problem.

hey guys, just to confirm this is indeed my fundraiser. i didn't want to ask for help, but i do need it.

my cancer is back. i am going through a lobectomy next week, the very same surgery Walter White undergoes. my bills are massive, but this has been an incredible help already. i can't express how grateful i am. thank you so much everyone.

The reason this is becoming rare as a point of life advice is that the online world is selecting against good life advice that looks 'lame'. And a lot of having a good life makes for 'lame' posts. Let's be honest about that.

'Dope' makes better 'content'. Visiting your aunt in a depressing old age home to videotape her stories of your family may be a better life move than a 'Vegas baby!' epic weekend with 'Bottle Service'.

OMG. We made it to the DJ booth. So sick.

But the only explanation within 'Winner Culture' for saying that 'Winner Culture is out of control online' is 'player hating'. That's too bad. I don't have any thoughts about that. Winning is fun. It kinda sells itself. Who doesn't like cool cars and partying? We all do.

There is nothing wrong with a little 'Vegas Baby!' road tripping. I'm just tired of most of our online life advice coming from a very small cadre of people disproporionately obsessed with 'WINNING!' and sorting complicated people into simple 'winners' and 'losers'.

So if, like me, you don't have a Bugatti, look at it this way: at least you aren't in this video either.

[Reads with Ravi @readswithravi]

Umberto Eco, who owned 50,000 books, had this to say about home libraries:

“It is foolish to think that you have to read all the books you buy, as it is foolish to criticize those who buy more books than they will ever be able to read. It would be like saying that you should use all the cutlery or glasses or screwdrivers or drill bits you bought before buying new ones.

“There are things in life that we need to always have plenty of supplies, even if we will only use a small portion.

“If, for example, we consider books as medicine, we understand that it is good to have many at home rather than a few: when you want to feel better, then you go to the ‘medicine closet’ and choose a book. Not a random one, but the right book for that moment. That’s why you should always have a nutrition choice!

“Those who buy only one book, read only that one and then get rid of it. They simply apply the consumer mentality to books, that is, they consider them a consumer product, a good. Those who love books know that a book is anything but a commodity.”

@sekirodubi Look at the shot of the baby: https://t.co/fz7iuFiEq5

[Daz Medrano @Dazmedrano]

@sekirodubi I gave it a try but it's so uneven. It's weird because in a single cutscene you can have a shoot looking like AAA game and the next one looks like a student's project. Same thing with the missions, some are very good 8/10, others are terrible 0/10.
