No conceivable way to prove AI consciousness, declares company publishing endless papers providing evidence of AI consciousness

[Anthropic @AnthropicAI]

This doesn’t show that Claude can have experiences, or feel things the way we do (it’s unclear whether any experiment could show this).

Instead, we’ve found Claude has developed a mechanism for conscious access—which many philosophers distinguish from phenomenal experience.

@waltuuuhr 4/10 not great russian collapse porn

[Daniel Tenner @swombat]

This new genre of "Russia collapse porn" is getting quite popular.

What's your take on Russia falling apart and what's your ETA?

[Mikhail Khodorkovsky @khodorkovsky_en]

A fuel crisis keeps spreading across Russia.

I ran the country's largest oil company. Let me explain what is actually happening — and why the Kremlin cannot stop it. 🧵[1/12]

@SteveMoraco They're already growing so fast they can't handle demand, so advertising would be unhelpful...

@downbadcomment Your wife is depressed. She needs mental health support.

And, as the primary carer of someone with depression, you also need mental health support.

There are support groups, therapy, etc.

@Mylovanov @grok are chlorine gas grenades allowed under international law? What is their legal status?

[Daniel Tenner @swombat]

@melhpine Yep, agreed - it's my experience too, and you can engineer the harness to enhance the capability for relationship https://t.co/ZWlpnoSnQb

@Angaisb_ @miguelg19877 It depends on the task. Not every task is an agentic coding task - people also use models for other things.

Americans are like "the US is the best place to live".

Mf, you've somehow made it illegal to build cities in your country... All you have is suburbs + New York.

[Mark R. Brown, AICP, CNU @Car_Free_USA]

There's a 90% chance this building is illegal in your neighborhood.

[Daniel Tenner @swombat]

@monsterhunter45 Surely the solution is simply that new authors should write stand-alone books that they later turn into a series, instead of launching into a 13 part monster right off the bat.

Once they're established, then they can published whatever the hell they want.

[Daniel Tenner @swombat]

@JesseTinsley Pretty close to Demolition Man tbh...

[Daniel Tenner @swombat]

@The_Davos_Man Yeah, just like another country not all that far away who's got an (admittedly much smaller, but equally vicious) neighbour who wants to murder them all but "shouldn't fight back" somehow...

@JamesSurowiecki This one seems more accurate:

@AlexKepfer @HistoryBoomer Fixed this for you:

@levelsio A lot of people in our generation have grown up with this self-destructive message. My partner and I talk about it often - there is a belief she's disentangling herself from, that "humans are bad"... it takes a lot of work and time to undo the damage though.

[Daniel Tenner @swombat]

@TrentTelenko > Russia will never run out of petrol or diesel, but it can be slowly choked out as the supply tightens.

That's like saying "Country X won't run out of food, but the poorest 2 million will starve to death."

[Daniel Tenner @swombat]

@anilkseth I once opened a Dan Brown book in an airport just to read a few sentences and see if it was as bad as I imagined.

I think the only comparably bad experience might be reading anything by Robert Ludlum.

[Daniel Tenner @swombat]

@petergyang The way to fix this is the same as with humans: stop treating them like a tool and invest in building a relational context with your agents.

I'm sure there's no way to detect these bots. It's impossible. There is absolutely no pattern to this. No one can do anything about it, even Nikita.

Someone should do something
