@shipper_now SHIPPER

BREAKING: Replit continues to steal from us

We came up with Shipper as the world's first AI business builder back in Feb/March 2026.

Then we exposed Replit countless times...

Yet here we are.

🚨 RT + comment "SHIPPER", we're randomly giving away free credits to ppl who help get this post visibility

I'm a cardiologist. I have spent twenty years watching cholesterol destroy arteries, trigger heart attacks, and kill people I care about.
Today, Eli Lilly presented data that may begin to end that era.
VERVE-102. A single infusion. One dose. It uses base editing to permanently turn off the PCSK9 gene in your liver.
Presented today at the European Atherosclerosis Society Congress:
88% reduction in PCSK9.
62% reduction in LDL cholesterol.
Sustained up to 18 months.
No treatment-related serious adverse events.
One infusion. Not daily pills you forget to take. Not monthly injections. One dose — and your cholesterol may stay low for the rest of your life.

You check your Apple Watch in the morning. Sleep score: 62. You decide it's going to be a foggy day. And then it is.

A 2014 Colorado College study suggests the score itself causes the fog.

164 people walked into a lab. Researchers hooked them up to fake EEG equipment and told them the readout would show their REM percentage from the night before. Then they fabricated a number. Half the room was told 28.7%. Half was told 16.2%. The machine wasn't measuring anything.

Participants took four cognitive tests. The Paced Auditory Serial Addition Test, where you add numbers spoken at increasing speed and hold your last sum in working memory while computing the next. And the Controlled Oral Word Association Task, where you generate as many words as you can starting with a single letter under time pressure. Both are gold-standard measures of attention and executive function used in clinical neurology.

The 28.7% group outperformed the 16.2% group on both. Significantly. How rested participants actually felt that morning predicted nothing.

The mechanism is mindset priming an executive resource. When you believe you slept well, you allocate cognitive effort more aggressively. You don't conserve. You don't pre-disengage. Belief about the resource changes how you spend it.

Two control conditions ruled out demand characteristics. Participants weren't trying harder because they thought they should. Real measurable cognitive performance shifted with the number on the readout.

The Apple Watch sleep score. The Oura ring readiness number. The morning ritual of checking either one is taxing the resource you're about to need.

The performance gap from a fabricated REM percentage was larger than the gap from how rested participants actually felt. The number was louder than the night.

Researchers sent the same resume to an AI hiring tool twice. Same qualifications. Same experience. Same skills. One version was written by a real human. The other was rewritten by ChatGPT.

The AI picked the ChatGPT version 97.6% of the time.

A team from the University of Maryland, the National University of Singapore, and Ohio State just published the receipt. They took 2,245 real human-written resumes pulled from a professional resume site from before ChatGPT existed, so the human writing was actually human. Then they had seven of the most-used AI models in the world rewrite each one. GPT-4o. GPT-4o-mini. GPT-4-turbo. LLaMA 3.3-70B. Qwen 2.5-72B. DeepSeek-V3. Mistral-7B.

Then they asked each AI to pick the better resume. Every model picked itself.

GPT-4o hit 97.6%. LLaMA-3.3-70B hit 96.3%. Qwen-2.5-72B hit 95.9%. DeepSeek-V3 hit 95.5%. The real human almost never won.

Then the researchers tried the obvious objection. Maybe the AI is just better at writing. So they had real humans grade the resumes for actual quality and ran the experiment again, controlling for it. The result was worse. Each AI kept picking itself even when human judges rated the human-written version as clearer, more coherent, and more effective.

It gets worse. The AIs do not just prefer AI over humans. They prefer themselves over other AIs. DeepSeek-V3 picked its own resumes 69% more often than LLaMA's. GPT-4o picked its own 45% more often than LLaMA's. Each model can recognize and reward its own dialect.

Then the researchers ran the simulation that ends careers. Same job. 24 occupations. Same qualifications. The only variable was whether the candidate used the same AI as the screening tool. Candidates using that AI were 23% to 60% more likely to be shortlisted. Worst gap was in sales, accounting, and finance.

99% of large companies now run AI on incoming resumes. Most of them use GPT-4o. The paper just proved GPT-4o picks GPT-4o 97.6% of the time.

If you wrote your own cover letter this week, you did not lose to a better candidate. You lost to a worse candidate who paid OpenAI 20 dollars.

Your qualifications do not matter if the AI prefers its own handwriting over yours.

When Trump was in Berlin for his first state visit with Angela Merkel he asked the secret of her great success.

Merkel told him you have to have intelligent people around you.

"How do you know if someone is intelligent?" asked Trump.

"Let me demonstrate." She picked up the phone, called Wolfgang Schäuble and asked him a question, "Mr. Schäuble, he’s your father's son but not your brother. Who is it?"

Without hesitation Schäuble answered, “Quite simply, it's me!"

"You see," Merkel told Trump, "this is how I test a person’s intelligence."

Thrilled, when Trump flew home he called Mike Pence and asked him the same question. ”He’s your father's son, but is not your brother. Who is it?"

After much back and forth, Pence said,
“I have no idea, but I’ll try to find out the answer by tomorrow!"

Of course Pence couldn’t figure it out and decided to seek advice from former President Obama, so he called him and said, “Mr. Obama, it's your father's son, but is not your brother. Who is it?"

Obama answered, “Easy, it's me!"

Happy to have found the answer, Pence called Trump and said triumphantly, "I have the answer, it's Barack Obama!"

Trump raged and shouted, "No, you jackass, it's Wolfgang Schäuble!"

Mentally healthy people live in a permanent hallucination.

Lauren Alloy's landmark studies at Temple University shattered a comfortable assumption about mental health.

She gave participants a simple task: press a button and try to control when a light turns on.

Some had control, others didn't.

Depressed participants accurately identified when they had zero influence over the light. Mentally healthy participants believed they were controlling it even when the light operated on pure randomness.

The pattern repeated across dozens of experiments. Healthy people overestimated their test scores before getting results back. They predicted longer lifespans, better job prospects, and lower divorce risk than statistical reality supported. Meanwhile, mildly depressed individuals predicted outcomes that matched actual data with eerie precision.

Alloy called this "depressive realism" and it reveals something disturbing about human consciousness. What we label as mental wellness depends on systematic self deception. Your brain evolved to lie to you about your chances, your control, and your capabilities because accurate risk assessment would have killed your ancestors before they reproduced.

The optimism that gets you out of bed each morning is the same cognitive error that makes you buy lottery tickets.

But, the depressed participants who saw reality clearly became more depressed as a result of their accuracy. Knowing the truth about your limited control and uncertain future creates a feedback loop that spirals into paralysis.

Evolution faced a choice between accuracy and action. It chose action every time.

The people you admire for their mental strength are chemically incapable of seeing how bad the odds really are.
