Looking for islands of coherence between nature, society & technology, in an environment of global entanglement & multi-reality warfare.

I'm so filtered by X that X doesn't show my replies even to me at this point. 😋
No, I don't wanna "pay to play" to the trillionaire fraud.
So if you're one of my 2-3 followers who see this, I might tune out from this network going forward, 'cause the road apparently ends here.
Anthropic was the catalyst for everyone to urgently look at open-weight models (mostly Chinese), but Anthropic is not the only AI lab in trouble - all the US labs are.
While they're bickering among each other who gets to own the market, the market is simply... going away. 😂
How landing on the Moon worked at NASA in the 60s:
- You smoke & do math
- You smoke & build rockets
- You smoke & train to be an astronaut
- You smoke & lead political battles to keep the funding
Then you put on the space suit, go to the Moon and realize you can't smoke there
I wanted to post this & make it official.
Starting tomorrow - I'm a new man.
Times are changing, so I'm also changing.
Say your goodbyes, because all this is going away.
Well, just for tomorrow.
Let's see how it goes, right?
No big commitments.
Ugh. Actually, never mind.
Do you folks realize the GPT-4.x series models were bigger than any model we have right now (maybe except Fable).
If you have strong agency, you will be more conservative in AI use, making sure its actions match your exact intent.
If you have weak agency, you will try to keep yourself out of the loop & delegate everything you can to AI.
Now think about what AI bros tell you.
The opposite.
The thesis that embracing AI to the max is a sign of intelligence hinges on a giant fallacy.
That "adaptation" is to simply give in & blend into your environment. No, that's "death".
Adaptation implies you co-exist with your environment, while maintaining what makes you... you.
Some of the people who created Mythos / Fable are now banned, by US govt, from accessing the model they created.
You gotta admit things are getting funnier. No one has any idea what they're doing. The govt. The labs. The investors. No one wins this in the end.
The US government, citing national security authorities, has issued an export control directive to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether inside or outside the United States, including foreign national Anthropic employees.
The net effect of this order is that we must abruptly disable Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all our customers to ensure compliance.
Access to all other Claude models is not affected.
We apologize for this disruption to our customers. We believe this is a misunderstanding and are working to restore access as soon as possible.

Leadership. 🙄
Human: Let's do <thing>.
AI: We can do <thing> by calling <function> three times!
Human: Maybe there's a better way, check it out.
AI: Checked! No, it's impossible. Can't be done.
Human: It's possible.
AI: *Thinks* You're absolutely right! We need just one call.

it feels like this is what anthropic has been after for a while and they finally got it

Before AI:
Give us your knowledge, your money, your electricity, your GPUs & your RAM and we shall work hard to spread its fruits among all of ya!
After AI:
The Liquid Glass in iOS 27 seems subsampled at least 1:4, even when your slider is pegged to the left (no blur).
That's a good sign they started caring about performance for a change.

It's weird if you think about it.
1. Tim Cook shipped the first iPhone with Siri (4S) in 2011, the same year he became the CEO of Apple.
2. HE THEN SAT ON IT FOR 15 YEARS.
3. And now he's fixing Siri in his final year as a CEO.
Imagine a world where labs invented a new, uniquely tasty fruit.
We're all fascinated.
But the seeds are extremely expensive, unless we all start buying toke... I mean seeds & grow it ourselves. The labs need everyone buying & growing. But when everyone is growing it... (1/2)
