@Bash863 @willjciolino @tavus Desperate look 💯

[Will Ciolino @willjciolino]

@tavus There’s 0 chance 48% of people believed they were talking to a human. Unless you biased the population by asking people who are 70+ years old.

That shit was easy to spot in the first half a micro second. Mouth moving a damn Annoying Orange video

Why am I seeing so many homeless people with pedigree well groomed dogs in downtown Seattle?

@shaunmmaguire @masayoshisson @grok what was the company and who was the buyer

Why doesn’t the larger CEO simply eat the smaller CEO?

@signulll i guess this is a bait and switch then?

Use any personal assistant except @Meta @Muse

Why?

Simple

It's meta

We sold them everything about us in the last wave of technology for convenience. Let's not make the same mistake with the remaining personal data we have. Muse is not unique in most of its capabilities relative to other personal assistants or agent harnesses excluding it's integrations with other meta products which, if you're still on, is a problem you should think about fixing

@alexandr_wang These guys are the ones who will keep going and kick off the disaster that causes our extinction. All so they could be first to hypnotize their boomer users with more ads and shitposts.

@DanielSmidstrup their definition of the market

[Scree @latent_drift]

acknowledging someone's individual experience...existence...is the fastest way to earning their trust

use someone's name while talking to them

watch entertainment venues communicate to crowds: sports games, concerts - all say "you exist"

general human greeting norms of thanking people for attending an event, investing/donating, commenting

I'm embarrassed that it took me so long to run local models this aggressively. Sorry fam.

TLDR: Hosted models are so much fucking better but it scratches the tinkerers itch that makes me feel like I'm in my 20s again.

[Nick Mark MD @nickmmark]

An alternative hypothesis:
- model performance is plateauing
- compute is getting much more expensive
- AI data centers are massively unpopular
- slowing down AI development is a way to explain slowing progress, reduce spending, and try to regain some goodwill.
- This is an effort to save the IPO not humanity.

@PaulMarcoe it's defined by the bioregion, here is a great map of it if you want something nice for your wall :)
