Margaret, 90, had gotten outside twice before her son Keith installed cameras. He expected to find footage of the problem.
He found something else. Every single night for nine months their golden retriever Flynn had already been at the front door before Margaret reached the hallway.
Blocking. Redirecting. Taking her sleeve and guiding her back to bed. Thirty-seven documented nights. Not once had she made it outside. Margaret's neurologist watched the recording and said: "I have worked in memory care for twenty-three years. Flynn is performing structured redirection. He built every component of it on his own." Keith said: "He figured it out the first night."

Also worth reminding that one of the persons who bought everything Guo was saying - to the extent he wrote an entire Foreign Affairs article as essentially a mouthpiece for Guo's claims (https://t.co/xlh0IPpTlt) - was Rush Doshi, who was Deputy Senior Director for China at the NSC in the Biden administration (and the author of the very intellectually dishonest book "The Long Game: China’s Grand Strategy to Displace American Order").

Really goes to show that in Washington, being wrong about China is never a career liability. He is literally the guy who was advising the White House on China.

I'd argue that, given a lot of this is reselling unused capacity from paid Claude Max plans, this isn't fraud.

It's actually extremely common in China: there is a very vibrant ecosystem to resell the % of your subscriptions that you haven't used. Something we should absolutely do more of in the West.

I actually pay for the Claude Max plan myself (alongside way too many AI services but that's another issue😅) and, I just checked, I virtually never use more than 10% on a monthly basis. The reason I pay for it is that, from time to time, I need a big surge of it on a given day and given daily session limits, only the Max plan allows for it.

If I could resell the 90% of my subscription that sit unused on any given month, why the hell not? That's not defrauding Anthropic: in fact in a very real way it's Anthropic defrauding **ME** by having this setup where I'm effectively forced to pay for something I only use 10% of!

When I'm in China, to buy almost anything, I will always check marketplaces like Xianyu (闲鱼) where you can buy these unused subscriptions.

For example, every year I go do a comprehensive health check with a company called iKang (爱康) which is owned by Alibaba. If I were to buy their health check package at the rack rate, I'd pay around RMB8,000 But on these platforms, *for the exact same package*, I can pay only RMB1,000 -> 1/8th of the price!

How is this possible? Well because you have plenty of large companies out there that buy iKang subscriptions for their employees as part of their remuneration packages. A big proportion of these employees - often young and healthy - don't want to spend a full day doing dozens of health checks so they resell their packages at a heavy discount. iKang doesn't care: the packages are paid for anyhow... They're not getting "defrauded".

Same thing for hotels: many credit card companies or banks offer people free hotel stays as incentives. Many people resell those at unbelievable discounts.

As for the part on subsidizing access in exchange for user data, I'd argue that - as a user - it's also a pretty sweet deal: if I could pay $20 for Claude Max instead of $200 in exchange for agreeing that my data - on top of training Claude itself - is also used to train another open source AI, why the hell not?

That's literally the deal Google has offered you for the last 20 years. Nobody is calling Gmail fraud 🤷

Does all of this violate Anthropic's terms in some way? Probably. But Anthropic's terms also say absolutely insane stuff like the fact that if you use Claude to help you criticize Anthropic publicly, you've pre-agreed to pay their lawyers to go after you and you've pre-agreed you've lost the case (https://t.co/F3nU7eAN0X). So "it violates the ToS" isn't exactly such a moral high ground.

So, no, this isn't fraud. It's what an efficient market actually looks like.

85 years ago, on June 22, 1941, at exactly 4:15 AM Moscow time, more than 3 million German soldiers opened artillery fire and began pouring into the Soviet Union. Operation Barbarossa, the greatest invasion in human history, had officially begun.

Almost four years later, at the cost of 27 million Soviet lives, Hitler, Goebbels, Himmler, and the rest of the German scum would be dead, and the flag of workers and peasants would fly high over the Reichstag in central Berlin.

Who actually ordered the assassination of the Russian General, who exposed US backed Biolabs in Ukraine? The ones we were told were "conspiracy theory"

All now confirmed as real by @TulsiGabbard

Lieutenant General Igor Kirillov, head of Russias Radiation, Chemical, and Biological Defense Troops was killed in a targeted assassination in Moscow, my sources suggest Ukraines SBU (secret service) who are closely aligned and trained by CIA and MI6 were responsible.

Kirillov, 54, led Russia’s efforts to expose alleged US biological activities, exposong documents found in Ukrainian laboratories.

In March 2022, he presented documents claiming Pentagon-funded biolabs in Ukraine were developing biological weapons using bats and birds.

He said these documents showed experiments on Ukraine's population, testing pharmaceuticals, and exporting biological samples to the US for offensive purposes.

In January 2024, he accused senior US officials, including Gina Haspel, Alex Azar, and Anthony Fauci, of obstructing COVID-19 origin investigations.

In September 2023, he labeled the US biolab network a biological threat, citing an illegal lab in California that housed pathogens such as COVID-19, HIV, and hepatitis.

He repeatedly accused the US and Ukraine of violating the Biological and Toxin Weapons Convention (BTWC).

Kirillov claimed Ukraine covertly used DM-105 chemical munitions disguised as smoke shells in Sudzha, Russia’s Kursk region, in August.

He revealed that Russian forces thwarted Ukraine’s “Short Circuit” operation to seize the Zaporozhye Nuclear Power Plant in October 2024.

He warned that Kiev could stage a “dirty bomb” incident, training personnel to produce and detonate such devices in populated areas

El momento en el que un autobús lleno de civiles de Donetsk, fue bombardeado esta noche con drones de origen europeo por el régimen de Zelensky, asesinando a 7 personas e hiriendo a otras 11 que iban en el vehículo.

Esto es lo que la UE está financiando, 90.000 millones de euros en drones y misiles para matar familias en un autobús.

¿Quién dio permiso a que usen el dinero de los contribuyentes para bombas que matan inocentes? ¿Entonces por qué lo llaman democracia?

🇮🇹 The breathtaking beauty of Tropea is something that never ceases to amaze.

Spending a summer vacation in this Calabrian gem truly feels like stepping straight into a dream, completely surrounded by great weather, crystal-clear water, and stunning cliffside views.

The absolute crown jewel of the experience, however, is witnessing the sunset over the distant volcanic island of Stromboli.

The sight is so deeply mesmerizing that it inspired us to board a boat for a day trip to explore the Aeolian archipelago, spending an unforgettable day hopping between the shores of Lipari, Panarea, and Stromboli.
