The Flaky Wanderer

People who are frustrated that the Anthropic/OAI divide makes it hard to equate "AI" with a single ideology are going to be even angrier when they discover that China and France exist.

i have no qualms about using AI in creating artwork, and if i wanted to make art for some purpose that demanded certain aesthetics it would make perfect sense to use it for that, but it's also just fun to doodle free hand and i give my art away for free so it doesn't really matter what it looks like

The thing I don’t understand is people so easily landing on thinking the only way to use an automation tool (that might be fallible) is either not at all or with blind trust

(I do not recommend this method of clearing dishonor)

Samurai with a dishonor to clear from himself: I guess I will be dumping my core

Narrator: They, in fact, did not want an honest explanation.

> you check on someone using incognito and they are asking if someone would explain something to them
> you would be happy to inform them on this subject
> they have you blocked for disagreeing with them on this subject previously

Okay I'm taking the word "collapse" and putting it on a really high shelf until people stop writing fan fiction about how AI works. "Knowledge collapse", "model collapse" these things aren't real, it's just you being a dipshit. Don't want them to happen, don't be a dipshit, use known best practices.

Zitron is constitutionally incapable of perceiving anyone acting based on principles, even when an entire company was created because the one all the founding employees left (OpenAI) consistently flouted those same principles.

I always wanted one to encase in acrylic, just to have in a collection

I’m an expert in my field and their answers are pretty good

Step 1 of a kickass autonomous driving system: give it super senses

2030s: code is free (as in variable)

If people want our torment nexuses being run on man-made horrors of biological constructs rather than thinking machines we can certainly do that too

Wait until this list maker finds out about professionals

Pretty sure the 24 beers is the hardest part of this unless you're some extremely hardened drinker

Hell yeah a grill friend

Aletheia tackles FirstProof autonomously We report the performance of Aletheia (Feng et al., 2026b), a mathematics research agent powered by Gemini 3 Deep Think, on the inaugural FirstProof challenge. Within the allowed timeframe of the chal...

Pretty wild Ai result, that will probably get less press than the latest Ai boyfriend article: arxiv.org/abs/2602.21201

A benchmark was created with professional mathematicians, using problems naturally encountered in their research and not publicly released. Aletheia solved 6/10 autonomously.

I don't believe that copyrights should be a thing != I don't think artists deserve money for their work

Many many many blanket bans simply do not seem to work as behavioral levers and I'm disappointed every time I see people on here fall into this trap. We have to do the actually hard work of changing behavior not just policing it

The rate of convergence of this system is absolutely glacial

yeah I’ve become much less tolerant of ‘directionally correct’ stuff as a direct result of RFK. it matters if something is true. yes, even if the motivation for the lies is understandable and the target of them unsympathetic like big pharma is/was.

We are Changing our Developer Productivity Experiment Design Our second developer productivity study faces selection effects from wider AI adoption, prompting us to redesign our approach.

aaaaaah updated METR study updated METR study

update on the new version of the study that people wrongly cite as proof that LLMs slow developers down. they're having trouble because it's impossible to find participants willing to work without AI for the comparison lmao

Tensor dysphoria (A 4d array wanting its indices to be explicitly covariant/contravariant)

No one poorer than Sony can afford to litigate an IP case and thus IP does not exist except as a cudgel to be used against such people. Every little thing that claws back some of the ground that's been slowly encroached by IP maximalist lobbies for the past 50 years is good, in my humble opinion.

Hint: it's not "GDP excludes imports so spending on hardware offsets domestic spending by these companies and also we have no idea how to measure the impact of AI use on GDP" like the article says

My sense of shame has been blunted over the years

I hate people who seek out other’s posts about having fun working on a side project for the first time in years to say “actually that sucks”
