the web3 dream really is dead... struck by how financial this list is
At @ycombinator, we're excited to fund more crypto startups solving financial needs including AI capital raising, stablecoins, trading, and agents. Here's our latest crypto request for startups. Our next application deadline is Monday.

I find this to be sort of bleak in the context of Anthropic's stated goal of "Utopia ruled over by God in a box". Neurotech offers one of the only real and substantial paths to continued human oversight. Seeing Dario and Daniella essentially scoff at the idea bodes very poorly for the likelihood that they pivot away from a human zoo and into human-machine coevolution. If you work at Anthropic and you feel like your beliefs are misrepresented here, please come to the Coevolution Conference. It's never been a better time to talk - CoevCon.com
Dario: “Yeah some people are gonna want to link their brains to computers, and good luck to them.” Daniella: “I don’t think anyone at Anthropic is in that boat for what it’s worth.” … Oh no

we’re in a phase where BCI is taboo, and all the AGI labs have to pretend to be in the ‘keep the future human!’ camp MANY ppl at anthropic understand that unaugmented humans will have ZERO causal purchase in the near-term, and they’ll get the matrix plug as soon as it’s viable at some point I will be obvious that augmentation will not completely mandatory for anyone who wants to survive the future ‘Solving alignment’ is the dishonest thing the AGI labs say today soon, they’ll be frank: there is no eternal control. There is no ‘survive by telling all future intelligences to do your bidding forever.’ The only way to persist, ever, is the become WHATEVER you need to become in order to contribute within the larger living system jn which youre embedded But none of the lab leaders can be honest about this because ‘tranahumanism’ is seen as ‘anti human and bad’ (when in fact transformation is the ONLY alternative to attenuation)

Delete your search history, delete your bookmarks, delete your reddit, medical records, 12 yr old tumblr, delete everything. Every photo on the cloud, every message on every platform. None of it is safe. It will all become public in the next year Local storage and compute 📈
society needs to grapple with the reality of a mythos-level model being open source in <12 months. i’m not sure we are prepared.

It’s clear this stuff is debanking for the AI era. They can lobotomize you without due process. There are legitimate safety concerns but the way the system works right now is broken and insane. Shocking that the same people expect us to trust them with literal brain implants and mind reading technology
banned for reverse engineering work? that’s wild oh well, -$500, and a bunch of banked resets) but gained motivation to get 3 more machines and finish my cluster. i have never used openai to exploit or find vulnerabilities, only local reverse engineering which tripped daybreak.

Starting 2027 anyone worth hacking needs to spend 1-3k$ per month on always-on proactive opsec guardian angel AIs! We are all complicit in this. We got high on the poison. Now we need to spend 10x the price of our 20x AI subscriptions to just stay sane & safe.
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman: "I don't even know a dramatic enough word to use… models can find bugs that are outside of the normal threat model of what we think a hacker can do… hardware-level, insane stuff… I no longer think we're gonna be able to just patch all the bugs." It's over.

3% of “critical” software security bugs, in all of recorded history, have been found in the last month. This is on pace to find another ~100,000 bugs this year alone, adding ~26% more vulnerabilities to the all time total Do you realize how fucking insane that is?
I'm tired boss

I looked up everything I could publicly on what happened to those kidnappers when they got arrested. The very large majority of them did not go to jail and are now walking around freely. In the midst of all of this, there is now a new law that forces you to declare your self-custodial wallets or risk 10k fine / year if you dont. And if you want to leave france, you will now also have to pay an exit tax on your crypto, forcing you to sell. zero
🚨🇫🇷 NOUVELLE AGRESSION LIÉE AUX CRYPTOMONNAIES : UN COUPLE SÉQUESTRÉ À SON DOMICILE ! Dans la nuit du 21 au 22 octobre, vers 3 heures du matin, trois individus cagoulés se sont introduits par effraction dans une maison à Mont-de-Marsan, dans les Landes. Les malfaiteurs auraient réveillé les occupants, un couple de sexagénaires, avant de les ligoter avec du ruban adhésif et des colliers de serrage. Selon les premières informations de Sud Ouest, les trois individus auraient pris la fuite avec un ordinateur portable. Les suspects sont toujours en fuite.

The NSA is telling American companies to take production systems offline. The AI-era of cybersecurity has fully arrived.
Effective Immediately, all organizations using PHP for their systems are advised to be prepared for an update addressing two critical vulnerabilities. PHP is widely used for web applications. These vulnerabilities often provide a direct path to the server's file system or database. If an immediate update is not feasible, it is recommend that organizations take the system offline until it can be fully mitigated. NSA will follow up shortly with more specific guidance.

If you want to frictionmaxx just move to Europe You'll get bored of self imposed cute little frictions once you've experienced the full asymmetric warfare of stochastic environmental friction
being able to afford to reject efficiency and convenience is becoming a huge class divide

The Intelligence Curse is happening TLDR: When AIs make humans economically useless, governments and corporations have no incentive to invest in their people For centuries, normal people could withhold their labor to negotiate. That era is almost over. This breaks democracy - politicians won't need the support of the people - and leads to severe concentration of power
The first phases of pyramid replacement are happening at Anthropic

String theory is what happens when an intelligent system is starved of sensory input and starts hallucinating. Intelligence needs grounding. For this reason, intelligence is practically never the bottleneck to solving impactful problems. The bottleneck is iterated contact with reality.
