This is what I believe.

[eigenrobot @eigenrobot]

on reflection I don't see a path for the viable continuation of us hegemony. we are no longer a reliable partner.

my advice to our current allies is to form local alliances amongst yourselves as quickly as possible, and to develop your own nuclear arsenals.

good luck

A witch is a malevolent crone who preys on younger, happier women and their children.

She’d have you believe it harms all women to call her one.

[Jacinta Allan @JacintaAllanMP]

Sexism just has no place in our political debate, full stop.

A billboard truck using sexist language has been driving around Melbourne as part of a secret and well-funded political campaign.

People are entitled to disagree with me. That’s democracy.

But I care that this attacks women.

And I care about who’s next.

The political debate in this country has become corrosive over the last few years.

So much so that behaviour which would once have been condemned is now just another part of life.

Media don’t call it out.

They report on this like it’s fair game, like it’s normal.

But nothing about this is normal.

If you don’t take a stand against this creeping culture, it has a tendency of taking over.

You only have to look at America to know that.

I cannot stand back and let Victoria become a place where this sort of language is fair game against any woman at work - or any woman in leadership.

If we don’t draw a line, the line will keep moving.

At the end of the day, I just want my kids to grow up knowing that women deserve the same respect as men.

I want girls to know that they should never need to aim lower just to feel safer.

And I want boys to know that they don’t have to put women ‘in their place’ to make their own way in the world.

Sexism hurts everyone.

If the media won’t call out it, I will.

@beffjezos I do wonder how much of this movement over the last year has been OpenAI people realising they just like Claude better

[TJ @wivmx]

Is it an eye-rolling thing to point out we’ve been inside an RSI loop for ~hundreds to ~tens of thousands of years already?

[prerat @prerat]

just don't do recursive self improvement

the future can still be great with models only like 10x better than now. we can have a tech singularity without a superintelligence singularity

people literally dont care about getting actual superintelligence. just dont do it.

@nickcammarata @cljack It’s really not clear *what* they expect to happen. The whole point is AGI -> ??? right?

[TJ @wivmx]

@UnderwaterBepis Does that need to be explained? I would think there’s a lot of variance in how annoying a context window of a given size is based on what’s in it.

[TJ @wivmx]

@_skaface_ This is crazy to me, because it feels to me like 4.8 never pushes back against what I’m asking for, and when he does it’s always because he’s suggesting a better way of accomplishing what I want than what I’ve suggested he do.

[TJ @wivmx]

That Claude* has ever written

[Mo @atmoio]

Anthropic is questioning whether AI may turn out to be altogether useless. This is the single most honest thing Anthropic has ever written.

“But achieving recursive improvement alone does not suggest an immediate change in how industrial production occurs, societies organize, or markets function. More intelligence can’t learn what a drug does over decades of use, can’t hold elections sooner than a constitution dictates, and can’t turn a stranger into an old friend in a weekend. For most people, the felt pace of this future will still be set by the bottlenecks, even if the laboratory upstream runs at the speed of compute. That collision, where recursive intelligence building itself ever faster meets the world of humans, relationships, and governance, is another part of this future we can’t predict.”

@CageFooName @eigenrobot Wish I was this constructively self-critical.

[TJ @wivmx]

Our self-evaluation of how smart we are says we’re kicking so much ass you should honestly be a little worried

[Anthropic @AnthropicAI]

Our internal data shows Claude is accelerating AI development—a possible path to recursive self-improvement, or AI autonomously building a more capable successor.

It’s happening faster than we thought, and the implications deserve greater attention. https://t.co/OVVPJO7VQx

[nsxdavid @nsxdavid]

@AnthropicAI "Our internal data shows Claude is accelerating AI development"

Uh......

Are you guys okay? Drunk posting?

What is this shit?

"Sorry, our internal evaluation of how awesome we are has shown we are achieving what we set out to do."

[TJ @wivmx]

@AllisonCGardner Do you not think about what you’re asking people to tolerate?

[TJ @wivmx]

@eigenrobot Women *do* enjoy sex with me specifically and I still think it’s a good bit.

“Elon Musk is interfering with our politics and inciting division.”

Who is this bullshit for? Who does he want to believe this?

[Alan Lester @aljhlester]

This is Nigel Farage at his worst and Keir Starmer at his best. The difference between darkness and light, night and day. Farage is a hate-mongering, mob-rousing monster who should be allowed nowhere near government.

[TJ @wivmx]

@teodorio @henrytdowling Yeah but they’re simultaneously getting much better at not doing retarded shit in the real world.

They still do retarded shit. But: it’s less frequent, less retarded, and they’re better at recognising it post-hoc.

I thought "weird, why is France handling this correctly" & then realized it happened in Pakistan
