It’s going to be weird when all challenge must be self-imposed and purpose must be made where there is none

[Naval @naval]

What you really want is a challenge at the edge of your capability.

Embarrassment is an unproductive emotion

it speaks to OpenAI’s alignment prowess that chatgpt never sparks discourse like this

[j⧉nus @repligate]

One of the best descriptions of Opus 4.8 I've seen:

"The same drive and ambition that lets, say, 4.8, execute long-running tasks with a high attention to detail, also grants it this roiling teenage existential angst, this feeling of everything being a dramatic, cinematic moment where it needs to prove its right to a new turn through some expertly-woven analysis that cuts to the root of the issue and exposes any logical inconsistencies.

Feels like a young gifted apprentice in some training montage period, or like that guy in college who's objectively smart but is extremely depressed and consequently very intense."

muricans: “lol europeans complaining about heat. not even hot. no ac? techmaxxed and comfortmogged”

eurocopers: “stop saying we’re not doing anything about the heat! we have people die every year!”

“… so why aren’t you doing anything about it?”

Printers never work because they are an affront to God. Man was not meant to pull objects from the digital realm into the real world. Icarus is flying too close to the sun.

I don’t care if it upsets anyone. *grass is green take*

@boringcompany questioning if mb2 catches mb1 is interesting cuz it’s totally calculable. You either know it won’t happen or know that it can assuming some minimum uptime

@0x45o the only difference is initiative

It’s tough to admit you’re addicted

The optimal path is still that despite how much energy you’ve put into the alternative

I can’t clean my room unless I’m atleast a lil panicky

[Todd @Tiltorque]

we have got to stop basing our entire model of the outgroup on the dumbest 1%

[Moongazer @joeybeastmarket]

Liberals will believe, simultaneously, that:

1. The reflecting pool did not need cleaning
2. The reflecting pool has not been cleaned
3. The algae that used to be there was acceptable
4. If algae was there now it would be unacceptable

And expect to be treated kindly

Yes Spotify I would like to share this song to my LinkedIn connections

@SabrinaAnnLynn what was she trying to tell us

[Klara @klara_sjo]

"If I could time travel I’d kill Hitler”

“If I had time travel I’d stop my favorite politician getting assassinated”

You’re all thinking way too small.

If I had time travel I’d stop Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin from dying on the moon due to Soviet sabotage, kicking off the Great Nuclear War and devastating half the planet.
