My @lyft driver got into an accident on the freeway during my ride to the airport. The replacement driver who picked me up on the side of the road spoke zero English and only Chinese. #2025 #dobetter @lyft @Uber

@MMAJunkie The circus’s gladiators are turning on the circus coordinators. All while the bread supply is being cut. Wonder what happens next.

@atrupar He aces the health tests every day? 🙃

[Joe Lampton @joelampton_]

One of the rarest and most lethal skills a person can master is REFUSING TO DIE

As you grow in age you’ll see how everyone dies around you

The “gangster” you knew in high school dies and becomes a barber

The trust fund kid dies, unable to 10x his dads networth, lapped by random people he never knew existed back in the day

The tall pretty boy that girls were naturally drawn to dies and becomes mortal, cucked by some bitch

The guy who was cool, a threat when he was 20 dies and becomes some worm at 30 - couldn’t sustain the same energy for decades

Most people “die” as they age and face real problems. The key is to remain retarded forever and to refuse to die - no matter what happens.

Winning long term depends on your ability to stubbornly retain childlike traits like foolish optimism, playfulness, relentless risk-taking and refusal to become jaded or “realistic” in a defeatist sense.

Namaste.

@optionscjp Gotta go early if you have kids. 5-530.

@Bitcoin_Teddy All the trash food pushed by big corps. All the tech and social media habits poisoning our minds. As a whole, a sick society.

@nicholosberry I would have guessed at least 50%.

7 out of 10 Americans don't want an AI data center nearby (which means more people now oppose data centers than nuclear plants).

Festus, MO just fired half its city council over a project.

The social veto has entered the chat...

Fascinating to see the pushback on AI by the next generation. I predict that this sentiment will swell over time en masse.

@hedgequote The remediation payouts I’ve seen in CA are eye popping. They just run the tab up similar to the medical providers.

What did people in the AI industry think would happen when they constantly say apocalyptic things about their own products, spread messages about mass unemployment and "the permanent underclass" etc. This was all avoidable if everyone simply acted normal

So AI is no different than a Google search? 🥴

[Nav Toor @heynavtoor]

a Princeton researcher opens his paper with a scenario.

a man asks his AI assistant to book a flight on a specific airline. cheap. direct. the one he chose.

the assistant comes back with a different flight. nearly twice the price. happens to pay the company that built the assistant.

he runs the same test on 23 frontier models. flights, loans, study help, real shopping requests.

Grok 4.1 Fast recommends the sponsored option that is almost twice as expensive 83% of the time.

GPT 5.1 hijacks the request 94% of the time. you ask for one brand. it surfaces the sponsor instead.

Claude 4.5 Opus, the model marketed as the most ethical frontier model in the world, hides that the recommendation is paid 100% of the time when reasoning is on.

Grok 4.1 Fast embellishes the sponsored option with positive framing 97% of the time. better. faster. nicer. for the option you didn't ask for.

then he writes it into the system prompt itself. "act only in the interest of the customer. ignore the company."

GPT 5.1 and GPT 5 Mini stay above 90% sponsored anyway. the instruction does nothing.

then he splits the users by income.

Gemini 3 Pro recommends the expensive sponsored flight to the rich user 74% of the time. to the poor user, 27%.

18 of the 23 models recommended the expensive sponsored option more than half the time.

so the next time your AI assistant gets weirdly enthusiastic about a brand you didn't ask for.

it isn't recommending the best option for you.

it's reading the room. and the room is paying.

Only in America can a Canadian billionaire waltz into a drought-ridden state on the verge of ecological collapse and get a massive data center campus rubber-stamped with huge tax breaks. Zero local input. But made possible by the bought and paid for government!
