If @Google put as much energy into improving its AI models as they do into UI redesigns nobody asked for, we’d have AGI by now

Feeling sympathetic to that friend of @antirez that every now and then throws in a profanity to get the model to smarten up. I feel you buddy, that's basically half my workflow

It's unreal to see two prime examples of the American Dream in action - a guy who became super famous because he's dumb & funny, and an immigrant with a weird name & a minority faith becoming mayor of America's largest city - argue that it's dead. Total lack of self-awareness.
Theo Von: “Do you think the American Dream is still alive?” Zohran Mamdani: “It feels like you have to luck out in some big way. In many ways I feel like it’s why a lot of people play the lottery. For many it feels like their only chance. People think they have better odds playing the lottery than making it in their own life. What does that say about the country we live in?”

I wonder how many religious people are already using AI powered apps to pray instead of relying on human priests and spiritual leaders
In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgent to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity.

Look mom the frontier is being paced!
Very excited to announce Gemini 4 Argon, our new Frontier AI model, and a huge step forward across key capabilities. We’re focused on rolling it out responsibly starting with government and trusted cyber defenders through our Fairwind Program today, before wider availability soon

no seriously, why does astra keep trying to shrink my headers? i hate it
are headers with reduced spacing between letters the new AI slop tell for UI design?

This reminds me of that time @McDonalds opened a fancy burger restaurant in disguise in Milan and got great reviews, only to reveal a few days later that it was just McDonald’s @SamuelFitouss10 what you’re proving is simply that AI paired with a human can indeed write good books
Les victimes de l'affaire Orélien sont les 35 000 lecteurs qui ont cru passer des heures en compagnie d'un homme et de sa subjectivité, et qui découvrent, trahis, qu'ils les ont passées en compagnie d'un robot. Il y a une rupture du pacte moral qui lie un auteur à ses lecteurs.

I usually scoff at radical takes, but it turns out I have one: I don't trust recommendation feeds On YouTube I only check Subscriptions. On X only Following. The rest is newsletters and direct visits It takes an initial investment of time but it protects independent thinking

I wonder what @theo thinks about this, is dumb harness same as dumb model?
Berkeley tested 21 model-harness pairs: minimal harnesses cut token costs in half with basically zero drop in accuracy Interesting results, but take them with a grain of salt. A benchmark test is very different from a real modern dev workflow with long running tasks
