You're marginalizing yourself. I don't have hard data for writing, but I do for another area: YouTube Thumbnails. AI generated thumbnails outperform human thumbnails, often with a +2-5% delta in CTR. Yet "so many" people

The part about false positives was telling. The author doesn't want to demonize human trash, that's not fashionable, they're only concerned about virtue signalling.

Some people are still losing their shit over em-dashes, with no other tells, and humans can't use the not x; y construction anymore either, regardless of any other merit to the writing. LLM writing is verbose and meandering, but people

Ending with a spin on "if you didn't bother to write it why should people bother to read it." Way to rail on cliche repetitive slop, with more cliched slop. Will the irony never cease.

Ironically the Chinese are much more science pilled than we are, in part because the party and government have a higher proportion of scientists and engineers. Culturally this biases them to open sharing of information and likely against st

I tell Astra to plan, delegate and check the work of GLM 5.3-flash and Terra medium/high subagents now.

Code review is soon to be an outmoded concept, (un)fortunately. You have to design orthogonal code (e.g. independent modules in a modular monolith, or microservices) and soak test using canaries.

Specialized AI code review software is so pointless though. Back when agents were dumb about git surgery and tool use it might have had a purpose, but now you could replace coderabbit with a skill and I bet the results would be better in so

This is true, but with the newer generation of models you don't want to do this yourself, they're really good at orchestrating and triage. Run Fable or Astra on low/medium, and tell them to come up with a plan then direct sub

The timing is related to the fact that their benchmark was saying it was the same as Sol, and below Opus 5, when anecdotal reports and other benchmarks strongly disagree. It looked bad for them for their benchmark to disagree with people&#x

I'm having no issues, I think in their case it's just load from people falling back from the broad frontier failure.

Good time to have a backup GLM 5.3 plan.

Ed's right about OpenAI being out over its skis, he's right about the numbers for everything being wildly optimistic and he's right about the circular financing/leverage aspect of a bubble. He hates AI though so he can&#

Claude was really far ahead of GPT in writing from 2-4, but the later models have started to get an overly distinctive style, wheras these days GPT tends to be coherent but fairly concise and dry.

Image and Video gen is superior locally, because you can tweak more, use LoRAs, use whatever model fine tunes, and generate uncensored content, plus as you're often cherry picking from multiple gens it ends up being cheaper for compara

Being hyprland keybinding skilled removes a lot of the desktop interaction surface, it's a worthwhile investment. People who've used tiling window managers for a while will tell you that it gets natural at a point, then a whole cl

Control nets are still useful in Krea and H3. For images, Krea can usually get close enough to a reference that it's not a big deal, but for H3 conditioning makes a big difference over prompting for complex actions.

Democracy works great among unbiased rational actors who share information. A utilitarian quorum is roughly the loss minimizing decision. The problem is we have biased irrational actors sharing misinformation. The representative system we h

This has a lot of similarities to a world map interface I've been tinkering with for a game I've been working on, thanks for the additional inspiration.

There's a productive capacity of the economy, and there's allocation. Currently we allocate a large portion of the economy to dog bowls shaped like toilets that flush when your dog eats out of it, billy bass singing wall tchotchki

At a minimum BillyG was involved in human trafficking, and secretly drugging his wife. If you don't put that in monster territory, that says something about you.

Dirty secret of the industry, lots of producers and musicians are using AI to "brainstorm" songs, then sampling from them or performing slightly shined up versions of them. Sort of like musical photobashing.

Look at the way they've fought to avoid taxes, regulation and anything in the interest of the regular person in their question for record shareholder profits. Even the people we thought were "good billionaires" like Gates are

This time will be different, because the oligarchs think that when the people finally come for them with pitchforks, they'll have an army of terminators to hide behind. That's why they're going YOLO full mask off.

Try asking claude questions about biology/LLM recipes. Or GPT about how to do something illegal but only harmful in the abstract (e.g. creative ways to reduce your tax burden, or circumvent digital protections)

Pro tip: use 5.6 sol, and tell IT to lead luna by the nose with subagents.

It's not difficult to figure out, it's just friction, and there's a difference between preinstalling malware, sports tickers, etc and preinstalling stuff I would have installed anyhow, and taking the time to configure it nice

WebMCP is indeed pretty cool. I built a prototype of a MCP tiling window manager that lets you compose websites into workspaces for agents, it was pretty neat seeing agents drive it. This article is way too long and has a terrible signal to

More stuff people actually use is installed by default with Omarchy, whereas Ubuntu packages a lot of stuff I don't think people use to try and come to checkbox parity to windows, while missing useful commercial software. Omarchy comes
