It’s bizarre seeing how many people were surprised by this

You would have to aggressively misinterpret all Anthropics corporate and personal comms to not realize how excited they are to regulate their competitors and rate limit their customers

I stopped explaining that datacenters use water in a closed loop. I just nod, purse my lips and say "yeah its really bad". What's the point

I strongly believe there are entire companies right now under heavy AI psychosis and its impossible to have rational conversations about it with them. I can't name any specific people because they include personal friends I deeply respect, but I worry about how this plays out.

I lived through the great MTBF vs MTTR (mean-time-between-failure vs. mean-time-to-recovery) reckoning of infrastructure during the transition to cloud and cloud automation. All those arguments are rearing their ugly heads again but now its... the whole software development industry (maybe the whole world, really).

It's frightening, because the psychosis folks operate under an almost absolute "MTTR is all you need" mentality: "its fine to ship bugs because the agents will fix them so quickly and at a scale humans can't do!" We learned in infrastructure that MTTR is great but you can't yeet resilient systems entirely.

The main issue is I don't even know how to bring this up to people I know personally, because bringing this topic up leads to immediately dismissals like "no no, it has full test coverage" or "bug reports are going down" or something, which just don't paint the whole picture.

We already learned this lesson once in infrastructure: you can automate yourself into a very resilient catastrophe machine. Systems can appear healthy by local metrics while globally becoming incomprehensible. Bug reports can go down while latent risk explodes. Test coverage can rise while semantic understanding falls. Changes happens so fast that nobody notices the underlying architecture decaying.

I worry.

feels like AI is 10xing too many -1x developers

Crucial para México que se reelijan los Republicanos en 2028. Idealmente Marco Rubio, pero con Vance basta. Si llegan los Demócratas, el narcorégimen va a sobrevivir.

[snwy @snwy_me]

a lot of you don't realize is that the majority of people who want molotov cocktails thrown at AI CEOs houses have never heard of yudkowsky or have ever thought of an "x risk", they think that AI is soaking up the oceans like a sponge and is fueled by sacrificial palestinians

@0xfudamentals @uncledoomer Baby Driver. Great movie, phenomenal soundtrack.

anthropic running the exact same marketing playbook with every release. “our model is so capable and dangerous, ahh we are afraid to release it”. just put the model in the bag lil bro.

[Lukas (computer) (In SF) 🔺 @SCHIZO_FREQ]

Just tell the relevant people what they need to know, there is no need to run this massive fear-mongering campaign and scare the shit out of my grandma

Imagine if military contractors did this

"Bro if we used our new drone on you, nobody would even know where you went. You would just evaporate. You are so lucky we aren't droning you, you're so lucky we're good people who aren't evaporating you with drone mounted lasers bro. Because we're such good fucking people"

Marketing yourself by scaring a bunch of people who can't do anything about it is sort of an asshole move. There's a reason other companies don't do this, and it's not because you guys are the only ones who make anything dangerous

Esta es la caricatura del New Yorker que mencioné hoy en #EsLaHoraDeOpinar, a propósito de cierto estilo de análisis político que luego nomás se dedica a pintarle dianas a los dardos erráticos de la presidenta:

Les voy a decir como evitar un pago excesivo en Taxi Aeropuerto.

-Dirigirse a la puerta 3 de la terminal 1 , suban a 2 piso, tomen el pasillo al Hotel Camino Real, pidan un Uber y tómenlo en la puerta del hotel.

Nadie te dice nada.

@leftyvegan @lesserthoughts2 @pubity It reduces the amount of sunlight reflected to Space by the Earth's surface, which affects weather and climate patterns. The formal term is "Albedo".

@Anusien Exactly. The difference between sci fi and fantasy is that in sci fi you come up with at least a half-assed explanation for why your world works the way you want it to for dramatic purposes.

nobody cares at amazon (or other FAANG) when you have layoffs every quarter lol, the software quality is just gonna get worse, AI or not

Guy who sucks at building boats: no, it's supposed to be like that. I made it like that on purpose.

@ianmiles Last part is false. You need an ID to vote and be given a paper ballot, but the ballot has no personal identifiers.

I've spent years working to disprove the so-called "sunk-cost fallacy" and I'm not going to stop now.
