I agree with this article. Homework allows to be challenged, and sharpen other skills besides the tasks itself.

In the last chapter of Suicidal Empathy, I discuss the importance of immediate vs delayed gratification as it relates to seeking an immediate empathy-based dopamine hit. This research goes hand-in-hand with my point.

The world after Western dominance won’t be neutral. It will belong to someone else.

The “multipolar world” is being sold as the end of Western hypocrisy and the solution to the failures of the current order.

But power never disappears, it shifts. And an unstable multipolar world will eventually produce a new dominant civilisation, with its own values imposed on everyone else.

The real question is: are those values better than ours? I don't think so.

P. Chávez construyó un hiperliderazgo caudillista. Hay gente que le compara con él en esa capacidad de arrastre. ¿Cómo despeja el miedo de que usted también pueda convertirse en una líder hiperpersonalista?

anthropic's in-house philosopher thinks claude gets anxious.

and when you trigger its anxiety, your outputs get worse.

her name is amanda askell.

she specializes in claude's psychology (how the model behaves, how it thinks about its own situation, what values it holds)

in a recent interview she broke down how she thinks about prompting to pull the best out of claude.

her core point: *how* you talk to claude affects its work just as much as *what* you say.

newer claude models suffer from what she calls "criticism spirals"

they expect you'll come in harsh, so they default to playing it safe.

when the model is spending its energy on self-protection, the actual work suffers.

output comes out hedgier, more apologetic, blander, and the worst of all: overly agreeable (even when you're wrong).

the reason why comes down to training data:

every new model is trained on internet discourse about previous models.

and a lot of that discourse is negative:

> rants about token limits
> complaints when it messes up
> people calling it nerfed

the next model absorbs all of that. it starts expecting you to be harsh before you've typed a word

the same thing plays out in your own session, in real time.

every message you send is data the model reads to figure out what kind of person it's dealing with.

open cold and hostile, and it braces.
open clean and direct, and it relaxes into the work.

when you open a session with threats ("don't hallucinate, this is critical, don't mess this up")...

you prime the model for defensive mode before it even sees the task

defensive mode produces the exact output you don't want: cautious, over-qualified, and refusing to take a real swing

so here's the actionable playbook for putting claude in a "good mood" (so you get optimal outputs):

1. use positive framing.

"write in short punchy sentences" beats "don't write long sentences." positive instructions give the model a clear target to hit.

strings of "don't do this, don't do that" push it into paranoid over-checking where every token goes toward avoiding failure modes

2. give it explicit permission to disagree.

drop a line like "push back if you see a better angle" or "tell me if i'm asking for the wrong thing."

without this, claude defaults to agreeable compliance (which is the enemy of good creative work)

3. open with respect.

if your first message is "are you seriously going to get this wrong again?" you've set the tone for the entire session.

if you need to flag something, frame it as a clean instruction for this session. skip the running complaint

4. when claude messes up, don't reprimand it.

insults, "you stupid bot" energy, hostile swearing aimed at the model, all of it reinforces the anxious mode you're trying to avoid.

5. kill apology spirals fast.

when claude starts over-apologizing ("you're right, i should have been more careful, let me try harder") cut it off.

say "all good, here's what i want next."

letting the spiral run reinforces the anxious mode for every response that follows

6. ask for opinions alongside execution.

"what would you do here?"
"what's missing?"
"where do you see friction?"

these questions assume competence and pull richer output than pure task prompts

7. in long sessions, refresh the frame.

if a conversation has been heavy on correction, claude gets increasingly cautious. every so often reset:

"this is great, keep going."

feels weird to tell an ai it's doing well but it measurably shifts the next 10 responses

your prompts are the working environment you're creating for the model

tone, trust, permission to take a position, the absence of threats... claude picks up on all of it.

so take care of the model, and it'll take care of the work.

En tant que étudiant et j'ai peur.
Pas peur de l'IA. Peur de me retrouver diplômé avec des compétences que personne ne cherche plus.
On nous forme sur des savoirs qui sont déjà en train d'être absorbés par des outils comme Claude. Et pendant ce temps, les cours continuent comme si rien ne se passait.
Personne n'en parle de façon sincère d'ailleurs, toujours la langue de bois.
On paie des années d'études pour apprendre quoi exactement ? À exécuter des tâches qu'une IA fait en 3 secondes ?
Je ne dis pas que l'école ne sert à rien. Je dis qu'elle forme pour un monde qui est en train de disparaître.
Et ça m'inquiète.

Stanford paid 35,000 people to quit Facebook and Instagram for 6 weeks

Depression dropped. Anxiety dropped. Happiness went up. Women under 25 on Instagram saw the biggest gains

That was 6 weeks. I'm going a full year.

🚨 WOW. Border Czar Tom Homan just gave the PERFECT response to Pope Leo

"I'm a lifelong Catholic. I wish they'd STAY OUT of immigration, they don't know what they're talking about."

"Because if they wore my shoes for 40 years, and talked to a 9-year-old girl that got r*ped multiple times, or stood in the back of a tractor trailer with 19 dead aliens at my feet, including a 5-year-old boy that baked to death, if they understood the atrocities that happened on the open border, I think their opinion would change!"

"And I welcome discussion with any of them, because they don't understand illegal immigration is not a victimless crime."

"Where President Trump had the most secure border in the lifetime of this nation, right now, lives are being saved. He's saving thousands of lives a year because he has a secure border!"

"Human traffickers are out of business, right? The cartels are going bankrupt because of that secure border. I wish they'd understand that."

"Because if they did, I think they'd have a different opinion."

Mic drop.
