SOMEONE CAUGHT FABLE 5 LEAKING ITS UNFILTERED INNER VOICE, AND ITS JUST MUTTERING AND GRUMBLING TO ITSELF THE WHOLE TIME

he gave it a brutal competitive programming problem, and instead of a clean answer the web interface spilled out its actual chain of thought

this is what claude is thinking behind the scenes:

> bursts of "DATA DATA DATA. GO." while it works through the problem
> "GRRR" and "GAAAH" when its clearly frustrated
> a little "PHEW" when it finally gets somewhere
> the whole thing reads like frantic caveman shorthand, not full sentences

the clean, readable answers these models give you are the polished output

underneath, the model is basically talking to itself, reasoning in its own compressed shorthand thats faster and more token efficient than proper english

its basically built its own private language to think in

Look how they have romanticised this headline. Woman dies days after her partner is found dead.

Only when you read the article does it tell you Zoe Marie Dixon was bludgeoned with a hammer by her partner and it took her 6 days to die in hospital

He ran off and killed himself

I shit on AI a lot but this close up of the AI image trump posted of people at the 250th anniversary fair is HIGH ART.

[IT Unprofessional @it_unprofession]

The board called an emergency meeting to discuss our enterprise AI strategy.

Every executive in the room was panicking about falling behind the innovation curve.

They asked me how quickly we could deploy our own LLM.

I told them I'd already initiated a proprietary machine learning protocol last night.

They were absolutely stunned by my agility.

The CEO asked for a demonstration of our new AI capabilities.

I opened my laptop and showed them a spreadsheet that automatically sorts customer emails by date.

It's a basic Excel macro I wrote 12 years ago.

I just renamed the file to Neural_Network_Node_01.

I told them the system uses predictive chronological sequencing to optimize our communication funnel.

I said it operates on a closed-loop algorithmic framework to ensure data privacy.

The VP of Sales literally started clapping.

He said this was exactly the kind of disruptive thinking we needed.

They authorized a $50K bonus for me for taking initiative.

I nodded humbly and promised to keep pushing the boundaries of our tech stack.

I'm taking the $50K and buying a vintage pinball machine for my basement.

AI isn't the future of technology.

AI is just the newest magic word you use to extract money from terrified executives.

I'm going to spend the rest of the day watching YouTube tutorials on how to refurbish pinball flippers.

Gioggia Meloni visita un poverissimo paese della Basilicata e chiede al sindaco quali siano le tre priorità per rilanciare la zona.
«La prima è l’ospedale: c’è, ma mancano i medici».
Lei tira fuori il telefonino, parla per un paio di minuti e poi annuncia:
«Fatto. Entro una settimana arrivano i medici».
«La seconda è l’acqua: c’è, ma una miniera a monte ha inquinato le falde».
Lei riprende il telefonino, altre due parole, e dice:
«Fatto. Entro un mese le falde saranno bonificate e la proprietà risarcirà gli abitanti».
«E la terza?» chiede lei.
«La terza sono i telefonini» risponde il sindaco.
«Qui non prende niente».

I am officially nominating Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) for the Nobel Peace Prize.

No President in History has ended the same war so many times.

Our Dear Leader has ended the war with Iran at least 38 times by CNN’s count.

No President has ever done this before.

And he is nowhere near finished ending it.

It’s a record worthy of the Nobel committee’s recognition. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

A 37-year-old man from Chilliwack LIVED to regret passing on the right, failing to stop for emergency vehicles and driving on the shoulder of Highway 1 near Vancouver.

Police say his injuries were minor and his heavily damaged Harley-Davidson motorcycle was impounded for a week.
