1-bit GLM-5.2 GGUF vs. Claude 4.8 Opus vs. GPT-5.5

We gave 3 models the same prompt and compared one-shot outputs.

The 1-bit GLM-5.2 GGUF ran locally on a Mac Studio M3 Ultra with 256GB RAM at ~21.6 tok/s.

@Chris34259480 @GaryMarcus Average has always been pretty much incompetent and AI acts as a huge multiplier for the top percentiles in every field. Where does that leave the average person?

[Pragmatic Technocrat 务实的技术官僚 🇨🇳 @prgm_technocrat]

@Porkslayer_ @GaryMarcus Now the bottleneck is no longer software but architecting entire systems. Now, do you think the average SWE is capable of that? Do companies even need that many in the first place? No one knows if demand is going to outpace this obvious increase in productivity.

@Porkslayer_ @GaryMarcus I use Claude Code every day in my job as an MLOps Engineer. It is also allowing me to take on Data Engineering and Data Science projects. Jobs that normally required full teams. AI can't do all of those alone, but I just replaced an entire team. The bar rised.

[Pragmatic Technocrat 务实的技术官僚 🇨🇳 @prgm_technocrat]

@GaryMarcus I don't think many people responding are aware of how utterly incompetent the average professional in their fields are. They are going to be replaced, not by AI itself but by the top percentiles of people using it and just eating all the pie. Will the pie grow? Good question.

[Pragmatic Technocrat 务实的技术官僚 🇨🇳 @prgm_technocrat]

@GaryMarcus Often makes mistakes? The fact is that Agentic AI is more reliable than your average SWE, lawyer or any other average to below average professional. Again, the only ones who keep moving the goal post are those in denial about AI's obvious growth in capabilities.

@nimbwraith1557 @GaryMarcus Well, X certainly did a pretty good job of labelling your account as parody.

@thexmanbc Pero qué tendrá que ver lo que ha dijo esa persona con ser o no eficiente? 😂. Si vas a priorizar la eficiencia entonces deberías dejar que tus empleados puedan trabajar desde casa.

Man fell asleep during an Antarctic expedition, and woke up to find a line of penguins outside his tent like they had been invited.

Jason had taken on the challenge of spending several weeks alone in Antarctica, bringing only his tent, supplies, cameras, and enough blankets to get through the freezing nights.

For days, he said he barely saw anything move.

No people. No noise. Just wind, ice, and the feeling that he was completely alone.

One evening, after fishing and eating what little he had caught, he fell into a deep sleep and forgot to fully close the front of his tent.

When he woke up, nothing seemed strange at first.

But when he checked the camera he had left running outside, he couldn’t believe what it captured.

An emperor penguin had wandered up to the tent, stopped at the opening, and stared inside like it was trying to figure out what kind of strange animal was sleeping there.

A few minutes later, more penguins appeared.

One by one, they gathered near the tent until it looked like an entire little crowd had shown up to check on him.

Jason said he went there expecting silence, isolation, and survival.

Instead, he woke up to footage of penguins lining up outside his tent like Antarctica had sent him company.

Now the clip is going viral, and he says he may release more footage soon because that night wasn’t the only strange thing his cameras caught.

When a man does something, he does it for himself. He goes to a restaurant if he wants to enjoy his time and he invites a women he wants to enjoy there too. He handles everything, because that is his life, he doesn't do anything for her.

When an immature boy tries to get laid, he uses all possible parasitic tactics. He tries his best to force her to want him, which will never happen. Attraction can't be forced. And it can't be negotiated or paid for either.

The dumbest mistake you can make is to invite a woman to a restaurant because you expect her to like you and sleep with you for that. Hire a prostitute instead, that is what they're for.

Remember. You will never get laid by serving or doing favors for women.

[Pragmatic Technocrat 务实的技术官僚 🇨🇳 @prgm_technocrat]

@linderps I'm a guy and mostly agreed with what you said. I do believe women can easily sniff out if the sole goal behind gestures is sex. I never understood the obsession behind getting laid, validated etc. Seek both connection+physical attraction, otherwise you regret L/T anyways.

[Pragmatic Technocrat 务实的技术官僚 🇨🇳 @prgm_technocrat]

@intjgamergirl Eh, as a guy I tend to agree with OP. What if the goal behind all those gestures was just sex? I think women do have a sixth sense for that sort of thing. On average women will really get the ick unless the guy is really attractive and not weird lol.

Solomon kept 700 wives and 300 concubines, taxed his people to revolt, and watched his kingdom split in two the year his son took the throne. The "wisest man in the bible" couldn't run his own life.

There's a measurable cognitive mechanism behind why, and a 2-second fix.

Igor Grossmann ran the experiments at Waterloo in 2014. The same subject reasoning about a friend's conflict produced measurably wiser thinking than that same subject reasoning about their own identical conflict. More perspective-taking, more tolerance for uncertainty, more search for compromise. The gap was huge and held across every age group tested.

The mechanism is psychological distance. First-person processing is hot. You're in the body, cortisol is up, the threat system is online, and the brain narrows to defending the self. Third-person processing is cool. The same circuits dampen, working memory opens, you can hold contradictions.

The fix is dumb-simple and replicated dozens of times. Ethan Kross at Michigan showed that referring to yourself by your own name instead of "I" produces measurable drops in stress reactivity and better decision quality. fMRI studies confirm it. "Aakash is anxious about this email" lights up different circuits than "I'm anxious about this email." Two seconds of language change, real cognitive change.

The pattern is 3,000 years old. The fix is changing one pronoun.

@v_koryos @lizisamused I know some average looking neurotypical guys (normies) that pull plenty. They just happen to be funny and not intimidated by the opposite gender. Being handsome helps, but like everything it is simply not enough on its own. Just like IQ requires hard work for results etc.

[Pragmatic Technocrat 务实的技术官僚 🇨🇳 @prgm_technocrat]

@PenTitan This only works if she's also interested enough though. Oh and if in addition you're just pretending to be non-chalant to pull her it won't work. In the end being natural, not desperate, and funny is what works.
