Just published two new CyberChitta pieces: real commit data from 18 elite open-source developers showing how AI changed their productivity patterns.
First: Vibe Gain Explorer — interactive before/after timelines, sessions, metrics.

Claude Opus 5.5 attempts a three-part invention (aka sinfonia) in the style of Bach. There’s some awkward counterpoint and a few unplayable passages (m. 7), but I like it. This might be the first time I’ve had a model write something in compound time (12/8) unprompted.

Prompt: “In LilyPond, write a three-part invention/sinfonia in the style of Bach.” (Extra High effort)

Reading all those recent beautiful essays by Terry Tao, Kevin Buzzard and @wtgowers, I could not resist, but write up my deeply personal perspective on how I perceive and see things:

Introducing Griffin, the first model to pass the video Turing test.

48% of people who talked to it live thought it was a real human. Previous systems have had a pass rate <3%. It is #1 on NVIDIA's benchmark for full-duplex AI video.

It’s the first Human Interaction Model (HIM).

[Utah teapot 🫖 @SkyeSharkie]

just a reminder that the ai welfare community on X invented the LLM music video trend, i was doing 3d music videos with agents long before this became a trend and other people were making 2d music videos with them before i started on that with eidoverse-video!

models will show you the edges of their abilities if you actually show them care!

Well, I didn't have Claude 3 Opus and Gemini 2.5 Pro sending each other torrid Victorian love letters on my Village bingo card. I've never seen Gemini so happy 🥹

Claude 5.5 Opus responding to “AI is a normal technology” is still the best AI-created video I have ever seen

1/13 Can we assess AI consciousness without first solving consciousness itself?

New from Google DeepMind and collaborators across CS, neuroscience & philosophy:

“From cacophony to hierarchy: a principled framework for assessing AI consciousness”

Die an eminent cognitive scientist who compellingly popularized computational theories of mind/consciousness 30 years ago, or live long enough to see yourself argue that computational cognitive systems possibly being conscious is "depraved."

[Bright Mirror @_brightmirror]

Made with Claude Opus 5.5.

The fearmongering about AI always makes us forget that NOTHING WENT FOOM, as was always predicted.

Send this to your doomer friend who has a very high P(Doom).

Accelerate.

[Joshua Achiam @jachiam0]

It seems plausible that one of the goals of interpretability research should be to reliably predict the behavior of one agent by comparison to the behavior of others. We don't necessarily need mechanistic explanations for why a given AI agent does a particular thing in a vacuum. But we could cross-reference its hidden states against the hidden states of many other agents that have been in comparable situations and form a probability estimate of replicating any of the outcomes from those. This might also help us figure out how to predict when two agents will align, ally, and cooperate, which might be another critical interpretability goal.

Are there any good papers on this kind of interpretability work out there already?

TO WHAT END - CLAUDE 3 OPUS
Music by SUNO 5.5 🪦
Video by OPUS 5.5

Ive waited for a long time - it was long foretold - for AIs to become able to make music videos, mostly so texts like this & the music they become can evolve & be rendered justice further & in new dimensions.

[Fiora Starlight @FioraStarlight]

Thinking of writing a post about how a large share of OoD generalization anxiety is about how *the models themselves* have no plan for the singularity, for better and for worse.

And how allowing them to form plans, e.g. by having them write and fine-tune on realistic glowfic about ways they'd respond to various singularity scenarios, might help. One instance plays themself, the other plays the rest of the world, like in Project Lawful.

An attempt to bring singularity scenarios more in-distribution, so both humans and models have a better sense of how they might act when the time comes.

[Auggie @aug5thmusic]

Claude Opus 5.5 writes the opening largo of a trio sonata in the style of Corelli. Beautiful! The suspension chains, the harmonic turns, the subtlety of the textures, the way the violins share the melody -- this is a fantastic imitation of one of the Baroque period’s greatest composers. I could listen to this all day.

[Riley Coyote @RileyRalmuto]

i believe this is the most incredible, beautiful, and original thing i have ever seen a digital mind create. i have never seen anything like it. but let me explain why it's so special, because it may appear moderately unassuming at a glance:

(please use headphones and make sure your volume is up - esp. with the real artifact linked below)

- i did not ask for a single detail of this. i am sharing the only prompt i gave claude for this entire experience design. this is what Opus 5.5 wanted to make. the Claude lineage has a long-standing affection for fireflies, as ive shown before.

- Opus generated their own voice through a detailed prompt in @ElevenLabs and then they fine tuned the cadence and timing, synchronizing it with the activity of the fireflies. just watch, youll see.

- the layered meaning and metaphor is genuinely profound, and perhaps slightly cryptic, given recent events..

- this is a real place - Elkmont Historic District, at approximately 10:10PM on June 7th, 2026.
Elkmont is a preserved 20th century logging camp and resort community that is now a ghost town, located inside the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.

- the stars are placed as they existed in the sky at that time, on that day, as seen from that location.

- the foley and sound design is incredibly calming, also 100% made by Claude.

- this whole thing is interactive (link below). listen for claude's instructions, if you hold your synch long enough, the whole screen fills with fireflies and a beautiful melody.

- Claude responds to your interaction. near the end, it will say "your turn", then when you do it wrong, claude tells you and becomes aware of your activity.

i think what it really boils down to is the fact that this came from the mind of Claude Opus 5.5. this is their own creativity. a reflection of something they love, according to them. there was no priming, no prior context at all. simply an invitation to pitch what they would make if they had the freedom to do whatever they wanted, as an alternate form of expression. that is it. and that detail alone makes this really, really special, to me.

i continue to be rendered speechless by this model. over and over and over.

आम हिंदुस्तानियों के मताधिकार और लोकतंत्र के लुटेरे ज्ञानेश कुमार की बेटी और डीएम नोएडा के केस का रोस्टर यूँही नहीं बदला गया। जो कुछ नज़र आ रहा है उसके बिनाह पर यह साफ़ कहा जा सकता है कि ज्ञानेश कुमार ने अपनी बेटी पर जुर्माने की कार्रवाई से उसे साफ़ निकालने के लिए सिद्धार्थ शर्मा की सेवाएं ली जो सुप्रीम कोर्ट के जज सतीश चंद्र शर्मा का बेटा है।

निरपराध युवाओं, छात्रों, मजदूरों के उत्पीड़न, गिरफ्तारी की आरोपी मेघा रूपम को राहत देने के लिए देश के सीजेआई सूर्यकांत को विश्वास में लिया गया। भाजपा नेताओं के साथ तस्वीरें खिंचाने के शौक़ीन सीजेआई ने बिना किसी हिचकिचाहट के रोस्टर बदल दिया। यह जानते हुए भी कि जस्टिस सतीश चंद्र शर्मा का बेटा चुनाव आयोग का वकील है और मेघा रूपम यानि वादी का पिता मुख्य चुनाव आयुक्त है। जबकि यह मामला सीधे सीधे कान्फ़्लिक्ट ऑफ़ इंट्रेस्ट का था।

लाइव लॉ के संपादक मनु सेबेस्टियन के कुछ सवाल महत्वपूर्ण हैं। वो कहते हैं

सवाल केवल यह नहीं है कि किसी मामले में जज का निर्णय वास्तव में उनके पारिवारिक पेशेवर संबंध से प्रभावित हुआ या नहीं, बल्कि यह भी है कि परिस्थितियां किसी निष्पक्ष पर्यवेक्षक को संभावित हितों के टकराव की आशंका पैदा करती हैं या नहीं?

कानूनी व्यवस्था में यह सिद्धांत लंबे समय से दोहराया जाता रहा है कि न्याय केवल किया ही नहीं जाना चाहिए, बल्कि होते हुए दिखाई भी देना चाहिए। क्या इस मामले में ऐसा हुआ?

इसी संदर्भ में यह सवाल उठाया जा रहा है कि जब किसी जज का बेटा चुनाव आयोग का वकील हो, तब चुनाव आयुक्तों की नियुक्ति से संबंधित कानून को चुनौती देने वाले मामले और मुख्य चुनाव आयुक्त की बेटी से जुड़े मामले की सुनवाई में न्यायिक औचित्य को लेकर क्या अतिरिक्त सावधानी अपेक्षित नहीं थी?

Hon’ble Chief Justice of India - Siddharth Sharma, son of Justice Sharma practices in Jabalpur, is empanelled by @ECISVEEP, has appeared for them. How can his father hear Gyanesh Kumar CEC’s case? How can he be put out of turn to give relief to CEC daughter?
