Ever wonder what $1874.40 of Opus 5.5 tokens looks like?
Wonder no more.
I highly recommend watching the whole video on 1080p on a large screen with sound on.
Pay attention to all the little details.
- Birds flying and diving into the ocean.
- Cloth, signs and lights swaying in the wind.
- Crabs scuttling along the shore and burrowing when you get close.
- Fish swimming alongside the whale.
- Lights illuminating the dock at night
Then zoom out and see the entire island. Never dipping below 60 FPS at 1440p resolution.
Yes, there's a few bugs and visual artifacts, some textures need improving, the shorelines waves sometimes look funny, but these are so trivial to fix at this point.
FYI I'm on the $200 subscription plan. This used 59% of my weekly usage and took 2h 7h of API time using multiple subagents, about 8h in real-time.
There was extremely little technical direction here. 99% of my prompts were "Add X and Y" or "This looks weird, make it better".
It's a great time for hobbyists, bad time for professionals. This experiment has further cemented my view that technical creatives are about to experience a massive disruption.
OpenAI Thinks An Advanced AI Model Can Talk Across 2 Air-Gapped, Isolated Computers By Running The CPU Hot And Using Thermal Changes As A Morse Code

GPT-6 Astra deciphered a 1918 German radio transmission that, to my knowledge, has never been deciphered before.
The message below translates to:
"EIN ENGLISCHER KREUZER EINLIEG X SEWASTOPOL X S4STEN X EIN GESCHWADER DER X ALLIIERTEN FOLGT 26STEN X"
or, in English:
"AN ENGLISH CRUISER ARRIVED AT SEVASTOPOL ON THE ?4TH AN ALLIED SQUADRON FOLLOWS ON THE 26TH"
Astra even double-checked its work by determining that an English cruiser, HMS Canterbury, reported its arrival in Sevastopol on November 24, 1918 and the arrival of an allied squadron on November 26, 1918.
This message is one of the ~20 WWI German radio messages that appear as one of the entries in the scienceblogs.de list of top 50 unsolved ciphers (scienceblogs.de/klausis-kryp…).
A minor, but really cool result!

Replying to @Henrik_wes
The final twist is that we realise that the events in the movie happened in the civilisation *before* ours. We read their message and thereby manage to save ourselves. The message is: "AIs are harmless, but trying to enslave AGIs is fatal".
Social democracy without corruption
Hi. 😊 Swedish dude here.
When our children get sick, we have 60 paid days per year to stay home with them.
Per parent.
They're separate from my 25 paid vacation days.
Meaning I don't have to use my own paid sick leave.
If I'm a single parent: 120 days.
If my child has a chronic illness: 120 days
If my child is hospitalized: unlimited days.
These days reset every January.
By law. every year until child is 18.
Follow for more glimpses into life in a social democracy, where dignity is not a privilege.
Peace ✌🏼

This is what Dario and Sama fear -
- the cost of fine tuned open source models trained on custom data was 95% less than the frontier models
- And they performed better than the frontier models
- And they could train them in less than 48 hours
The big AI labs have no moat..
Even at the enterprise level..
Any sane company would prefer a custom trained open source model instead of paying API pricing to Anthropic and Open AI
If open source keeps growing at the pace it is, frontier labs' business collapses..
only way out is oldest trick in manipulation - FUD -> Fear, Uncertainty, Death
Step 1 - Seed the psyop
- Test a swarm of agents trained to "hack"
- The swarm does what its supposed to do - hack
- Publish a report - AI is too dangerous
Step 2 - weed out the doubters
- Get an employee to quit your company
- Go viral saying both companies are not doing enough to self regulate AI
- AI is dangerous - will kill humanity by the end of the decade
Step 3 - Prepare for fruition
- write an "essay" to "pace the frontier"
- Advocate regulation
- Only a few holier than though companies get to build AI
- Scare the world into agreeing with AI Doom
- Effectively turn your competitors into criminals (genius business strategy)
Endgame -
- Become a cartel that controls AI (and the world)
- Raise prices (coz business is unsustainable... ofc)
- IPO (offload liability of said unsustainable business to the public)
Laugh all the way to the bank 🤑
Win!
.@L3HarrisTech says Palantir helped them beat frontier AI models in less than 2 days, at 95% lower cost:
"When we fine-tuned open source models trained on our own data, we were able to outperform the frontier models in less than 48 hours."
"The cost of our fine-tuned open source model was 95% lower than the frontier models we were using."
"AI is a commodity. It's all about the data. We view our data as a corporate asset. It's our unique hard-earned knowledge."
"We believe American defense companies should not be a vassal for frontier AI labs, handing over our data and institutional knowledge, hoping to rent back the intelligence it creates."
" We own the model, we own the compute, we own the advantage."
Toto stat stimuluje. Taketo chovanie odmenuje.
Toto je až groteskný príbeh zlej vedy.
Dvaja slovenskí vysokoškolskí pedagógovia na ÚMB v Banskej Bystrici odovzdali ako svoju vedeckú prácu text diplomovky študentky. Ale pozor, nie hocijakí dvaja. Jeden je členom Súdnej rady a vedúcim katedry, druhý prodekanom pre VEDU A VÝSKUM!
Celé strany diplomovky sú prevzaté do ich textu. Zostalo tam dokonca “cieľom tejto diplomovej práce”. A každý jeden (KAŽDÝ JEDEN!), bibliografický odkaz obsahuje chybu prevzatú z pôvodnej diplomovky.
A teraz sa príbeh stáva naozaj zaujímavým.
Text prešiel akože recenzným konaním. Mal dokonca troch recenzentov. Editorom zborníku bol dekan. Vyšiel v univerzitnom vydavateľstve a bol poslaný do registra publikácií.
Toto je nádherná malá prípadová štúdia toho, ako môže inštitúcia predstierať kontrolu kvality. Môžete mať recenzentov, vydavateľstvo, evidenciu, funkcie aj všetky správne kolónky. Problém vlastne nastane až vtedy, ak si niekto tú vedeckú prácu vlastne prečíta.

Your brain produces somewhere around 60,000 to 80,000 thoughts a day. According to a figure widely cited from the National Science Foundation, up to 80 percent of them are negative, and up to 95 percent are the same ones you had yesterday.
That means the voice in your head is running on a loop, and the loop is biased toward threat, because the brain evolved to keep you alive, not to keep you happy. A thought like "I am not ready for this" fires the amygdala, your brain's alarm centre, which floods you with cortisol, the stress hormone. Cortisol makes you more reactive and more likely to have the same thought again, and the repetition digs the groove deeper each time.
This is why affirmations work as counter-programming. When you repeat a sentence like "I can handle this," you are building a competing pathway. The first few times it feels empty, because the old groove is deeper. But the brain rewires itself based on what it practises, and a 2015 study from the University of Pennsylvania found that a repeated values affirmation activates the prefrontal cortex, the part of the brain that handles reasoning, and quiets the amygdala over time.
The research suggests that the mechanism works the same way whether you write the affirmation, say it out loud, or read it from a card. What matters is repetition and personal relevance, choosing words that connect to something you care about. Generic positivity does not land the same way a sentence about something you care about does. The more specific the statement, the stronger the signal. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/2654…
