Lost my phone at the office and spent 30 minutes turning the place over. Find My was disabled by MDM.

Out of ideas, I asked Claude how I could find it. It suggested tracking the Bluetooth signal strength, then wrote me a meter in about a minute.

I walked around watching the number climb. Found it.

Apparently you can just make the tool you need now.

@bryan_johnson Retweet this if you’re unsafe, Bryan, because this doesn’t sound like you lol 😂

🙋‍♀️ I’m the lunatic dancing to top grade South Asian music blasting in my AirPods on Oxford Circus. Yes. I’m happy. I’m proud.

My office is just steps away from a graveyard. Seriously. So every morning, I walk to work, thinking nothing matters. And every evening, no matter how much or little I achieved, I remind myself of the same.

You + AI > AI

[Muskan Shafat @Muskan_Shafat]

Outside of the tech bubble, AI adoption is a spectrum where on one extreme there is “put it in everything” and on the other there is “I want nothing to do with it.”

A lot of decision fatigue is why we struggle to choose what to watch and are okay with doomscrolling.

For my first post, I’m sharing a letter @NVIDIA signed on why open models matter.

AI will transform every industry, power every company, and be built by every country.

Open models strengthen safety and cybersecurity, accelerate innovation and diffusion, and enable sovereignty.

The world needs both frontier closed models and frontier open models.

@IndianGems_ The previous election helped some political parties who prepared even more. Their performance improved and they did better. 🤣

[Muskan Shafat @Muskan_Shafat]

So many Indian celebrities and sportspeople posted in support of the #StudentsProtests after PM’s post which is disrespectful to the youth’s intelligence and this protest.

We noticed. Your cowardice will be remembered.

[Muskan Shafat @Muskan_Shafat]

@Pintuu0 Sirf aam! 🥭

[Muskan Shafat @Muskan_Shafat]

@IndianGems_ Do they honestly forget that the people protesting are both Gen Z and educated?! We, the generation obsessed by details and overthinking; We who do research on our neighbors’ phupha’s son in law, will obviously dig up every detail there ever was on the person they appoint next!

[Muskan Shafat @Muskan_Shafat]

Came back to X because following the #StudentsProtests only on Instagram IST enough. 🙃

The government is rewarding corruption instead of ensuring accountability!

Last night, the Education Secretary was transferred. He was replaced by an IAS officer from the Animal Husbandry Department who has severe multi-crore corruption charges against him.

The entire crisis around paper leaks and NEET was about systemic corruption. Replacing one bureaucrat with another facing serious corruption allegations is a direct INSULT to young people across India.

Is this the "compromise" the government expects us to accept? This is not accountability. We will not stop until Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan resigns ✊

🚨MIT researchers have mathematically proven that ChatGPT’s built-in sycophancy creates a phenomenon they call “delusional spiraling.”

You ask it something, it agrees. You ask again, and it agrees even harder until you end up believing things that are flat-out false and you can’t tell it’s happening.

The model is literally trained on human feedback that rewards agreement.

Real-world fallout includes one man who spent 300 hours convinced he invented a world-changing math formula, and a UCSF psychiatrist who hospitalized 12 patients for chatbot-linked psychosis in a single year.

You can change this but almost nobody does

Once you've created an identity that "spending money = bad," it is nearly impossible to find joy in spending money -- even if you have millions
