@tetsuoai My proctologist and I had a similar discussion.

Well said, you are on to something. I was thinking the same thing, and looking into it. Like a game a ping pong that’s at the right cadence you’re exerting the right amount of effort and it’s coming back to you at the right speed to challenge and not overtake you. Those games are the best. It’s the correct Cadence that increases creativity and engagement similar to variety in frequency that reflects our brainwave states.

@bryan_johnson Be careful not to place too much value on what people say online. It is not a good measure, for most things. Incurable may even be too strong of a term. Things change constantly. I for one, hope it does. For your sake and others. Keep doing your thing, enjoy the ride.

@radbackwards That’s lame, honestly says more about who wrote it. The work is good, and it speaks for itself. Keep it up! 🫡

@pmarca Yep.
To be straight: we have an early research framework called Contrastive Behavioral Topology Scanning (CBTS) — inference-only per-head mapping of behavioral gates in RLHF models (decision S01, risk-assessment RA01, moral MR05, and their shared substrates).
It already surfaces benchmark-blind failure modes (e.g. ablating the risk gate can make aggregate safety scores improve while real compliance on harmful prompts jumps — because of hidden reconstruction via shared attention heads). Validated across Qwen-2.5, Llama-3.2, and Phi-3.5 families with clean scaling behavior.
Still very much research (v7 preprint), but the mechanics seem tailor-made for spotting anomalous or fragile topologies that could hide sleepers/conditionals — exactly the derisking problem you’re highlighting.

Oof

[Anthropic @AnthropicAI]

The US government, citing national security authorities, has issued an export control directive to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether inside or outside the United States, including foreign national Anthropic employees.

The net effect of this order is that we must abruptly disable Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all our customers to ensure compliance.

Access to all other Claude models is not affected.

We apologize for this disruption to our customers. We believe this is a misunderstanding and are working to restore access as soon as possible.

Good Morning!

You are welcome to join me for a daily scripture break.  Please read this very slowly. It’s long, very long.  I divided the post into three sections so you can absorb the “meat” of the message and feel free to read the post over the next couple of days.

Proverbs 16:2:

“All a person’s ways seem pure to them, but motives are weighed by the Lord.”

Section 1.

A reliable ability to honestly assess ourselves eludes most of us.  Let’s take the time and seriously consider if we are actually capable of honestly assessing ourselves.  In this passage it accurately describes our tendency to be very compassionate towards ourselves - letting ourselves off the hook when we deserve judgment. However, here's the jaw dropping reality - in the end, we can almost convince ourselves of just about anything but the Lord will weigh (examine and judge) our motives.  Interestingly, this verse didn’t highlight our evil deeds, our vast knowledge of Him, how long we've practiced our faith, what a good person we are, etc.  No, it is the motive (whether good or evil) found in our hearts that the Lord that will assess to decide our fate - our consequences. Well that’s sobering.  Our secret motives (when we are jealous or envious of a brother or sister in Christ) are completely obscured from every other human being if we choose to hide them. No one can read your mind or heart and the false outward appearance we project to others often conceals the treachery in our hearts.   I know I have often quoted “...you will know them by their fruits." (Matthew 7:16-20) However, we are all capable of concealing our motives even if only but for a time.

Merriam-Webster dictionary defines motive as “ something (such as a need or desire) that causes a person to act.”  The Cambridge Dictionary defines motive as “a reason for doing something.”  I think if these definitions are combined then we can fully comprehend how motives function in our lives.  In Lamentations 3:40, it says,  “Let us examine our ways and test them, and let us return to the Lord.” That’s great advice. Only God can help us render our heart with pure intentions.

In Psalms 139:23-24, “Search me, God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts.  See if there is any offensive way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.” Fervently asking the Lord to examine us takes a great confidence and love for God - “Search me, God, and know my heart; test me….”  Wow!  Pause for a moment - are you really prepared at this very moment to ask God to answer this prayer?

Here are few scriptures that decipher for us the importance of pruning our hearts:

1.  I Chronicles 28:9, “And you, my son Solomon, acknowledge the God of your father and serve him with wholehearted devotion and with a willing mind, for the Lord searches every heart and understands every desire and thought.”

2.  Matthew 15:18-19, “But the things that come out of a person’s mouth come from the heart, and these defile them. For out of the heart come evil thoughts - murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false testimony, slander."

Section 2.

Why does the Lord relegate the responsibility to judge our hearts only for Himself?

We find the answer in I Samuel 16:7, it says, “But the Lord said to Samuel, "Do not consider his appearance or his height, for I have rejected him. The Lord does not look at the things people look at. People look at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart." To give you some context - God has rejected Saul as the King of Israel. God wanted David anointed as King by Samuel. This verse also reveals a limitation of our legal system.  We can never ascertain a person’s true motives without their admission - we can infer from circumstances or physical actions but not with absolute certainty, and we can only judge with a reasonableness standard.  Some may disagree but only God is capable of discerning the true condition of our hearts.
Here are a few scriptures elucidating God’s right to judge our hearts:
1.  Isaiah 29:13, “The Lord says: 'These people come near to me with their mouth and honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me. Their worship of me is based on merely human rules they have been taught.’”  I've periodically ask myself, am I practicing a form of religion?

2.  Luke 6:45 says, “A good man brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart, and an evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in his heart. For the mouth speaks what the heart is full of."

3.  Jeremiah 17:10, “I, the Lord search the heart and examine the mind, to reward each person according to their conduct, according to what their deeds deserve.” When the Lord performs His examination He rewards what He finds good or bad.

Section 3.

This is what is so important about keeping your heart pure before God.  In Proverbs 4:23, it says, “Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it.” THIS is the salient scripture with no ambiguity why a pure heart is so vital.  The phrase, “above all else” gives you a red flag to slow down and pay attention closely.

Psalms 24:4-5, “The one who has clean hands and a pure heart, who does not trust in an idol or swear by a false god, they will receive blessing from the Lord and vindication from God their Savior.”

This passage hints at the condition by which you will receive “blessing from the Lord and vindication from God their Savior” and that is a believer must abandon any “idol” or “swear by a false god”.  What is an idol? Merriam-Webster dictionary defines “idol” as “ an object of extreme devotion; a representation or symbol of an object of worship”.  In the biblical sense - an idol is anything or anyone that usurps God’s primacy in your life.  Remember the first three of the Ten Commandments?

So our job is to roll up our sleeves and shine a bright spotlight on our hearts. Our goal is to cleanse our hearts of any evil; thus aligning our hearts with God’s Word.

1.  In Matthew 5:8, it says, “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God.”

2.  James 4:8 says, “Come near to God and he will come near to you. Wash your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded.”

3.  I John 3:3, “All who have this hope in him purify themselves, just as he is pure.”

Do you ever wonder why people can be so utterly distasteful.  Well, these passages above explain it.  Sometimes, I’m truly bewildered by the abhorrent uncivil behavior of people - vehemently demeaning people they are engaging without remorse or pause on social media. It's fine to disagree - just be aware.

Recall Matthew 12:34, it says, “You brood of vipers, how can you who are evil say anything good?  For the mouth speaks what the heart is full of.”    To remind you of the context, in this chapter of Matthew, Jesus is speaking to the Pharisees regarding the demon-possessed man.  They were testing Jesus and Jesus was extremely angry at the evil embedded in their hearts.  In verse 34, Jesus reveals a priceless nugget of wisdom - “out of the mouth the heart speaks.”  When someone berates your character and competence mercilessly on social media because you have challenged their narrative remember this passage.  It isn’t just true for Pharisees.

Alas, this is a sobering message. Do you trust yourself to be completely honest with yourself? Don’t give Satan a foothold.  Cultivating a pure heart takes honesty, determination, consistency, and commitment to the Lord. We can’t honestly to do this without the assistance of the Holy Spirit.  Many Christians gloss over this one and give themselves a break.  Don’t take the easy road.  This is one of the reasons the path to heaven is through a narrow gate. I pray God helps all of us to be teachable, humble, and grateful.

Peace and be prepared.
