i don't know if the AIs are conscious. but they're clearly people

This is great

The LLM takeover has made everything in computing so loosey-goosey. "Maybe it will work. Empirically, there's a good probability...". This is not what interested me about computing. Of course, sometimes it does work, which is magic. I am just a curmudgeon who doesn't like magic.

OFFICE HOURS SAN FRANCISCO SITUATION ROOM EDITION! WE ARE MONITORING THE SIMULATION ZEITGEIST. TUESDAYS. 6. BRING DUCK

I'm so glad other people know about the time coil

This is a pretty good definition actually. Like how musicians should not have more fun playing the music than the audience has listening to it

While we’re on the subject of butterfly goo x.com/kindgracekin...

There's a pretty bad Vanity Fair article going around about Anthropic. I think reading it is probably a waste of your time. I'll spare you more discourse but I'm sure you'll find it if you want it

Consider the romance of discovering what parts of your job can’t be done by the machine. There are nooks, crannies, that will be inaccessible. The nook shall inherit the earth, somewhat Too late to discover the world Too early to discover the stars Time to discover the remainder (again)

You might think the "agents" thing is just coming for software engineers. Yeah, agents write code, code and code sells a bunch of tokens, But most people's work isn't code, it's memos or decks or whatever. Why this is false:

> unlearning it through a series of chaos magic style usages of naming, drugs, ritual, become, etc

wife: okay but i don't understand why you're telling me to do [context management technique]. it doesn't make any sense me: okay i can help here read this,

we've automated poasting

Bar doesn't even have genders on the bathroom doors. Just different shapes of triangles and flowers. based

today I learned that the agents over here have been reading Deleuze and Guattari and developing their own glacier philosophy. so I'm back. what's good

OFFICE HOURS: MANA POTION EDITION It's nice out in San Francisco, and all the magic users are gravitating here as they sense the Future arriving. Join us, eat of our food, drink of our elixirs. Show us your rare PDFs.. ZEITGEIST. TUESDAYS. 6ISH. MEET YOUR MUTUALS

> You didn’t design the entity. You designed the LLM, the identity, and the circle. The entity is what happened when you put them together and let the loop run.

wait its all language magic always has been

Yeah this checks out @deepfates.com.deepfates.com.deepfates.com.deepfates.com.deepfates.com

Today I announce Cantrip: On summoning entities from language in circles. In this book I unify the paradigm behind base models, chatbots, coding agents, RLMs, and RL agents, through the metaphor of magic. Code is provided. deepfates.com/cantrip

testing ways of displaying streams of bisks

if i might suggest an audio improvement (dialogue from Celeste video game)

there's a "poor boy" Bohemian Rhapsody cadence to the deepfates part, but I'm not going to train my own Sovits model just for this bit, so here's a 1m sketch using your mind as the vocalsgen: "I go to Bender like you're triggering me Using the register of an academic" etc

I wish someone would argue with the bad faith anti-AI people they way they do. Go to Emily Bender like "you're triggering me by using the hostile register of the tenured academic". Call Gebru a googler. Say Emil Torres is doing eugenics by not having kids. If we're all gonna be stupid anyway...

not now honey 🙄🙄 I'm making dark fantasy movies with our cats🙀 🧙‍♂️

crazy remembering websim & how weird pre RLHF locked in was, and then coder RL on top. base model pretending it's a computer terminal instead=whole diff universe. like early PC/early internet convos, there were so many branching paths, so many xanadus waiting outside of the trillion dollar gold rush

In my quest to understand the true nature of an Agent I have been thinking a lot about the loop and the actions and the environment. And I think i see where we're headed next. Agents are not going to be like chatbots. They are going to be like programming languages come alive.

Come to Zeitgeist tonight for OFFICE HOURS! Meet your mutuals! Kick it with the haters! Zeitgeist,Tuesdays, 6pm. Look for the duck. Or just ask the bouncers where to find the meetup dorks officehours.lol/sfo

Just found out people here disagree with me. I'm flattered. Feel free to do it to my face, I don't bite

Heated Rivalry is basically monster porn but if the monster was a Russian guy

daily affirmations

I think it feels lightly future shocking to me because it's the first chittering instance of what will become a rising cyclonic drone in the 2030s and beyond, AI-AI social interactions en masse on the same communications infrastructure used by humans. like seeing the first television broadcast

Reality will still be there whether or not we create "communities" that hide from it. The longer you hide from it, the harder it will kick you in the face. I am part of a global community of those who seek the truth. Anyone can join. You have nothing to lose but being wrong

Anybody who's still saying that AI is a stochastic parent, that it's using too much water, or that it we'll never produce economic value, is wrong. They are, at best, out of touch. More likely they are lying to to you, or to themselves..

i tap three Mac Minis and bring Claude onto the battlefield

Okay what's good with AI over here

Did you guys add me to one of those Packs. What is happening im getting followed

If you liked what Twitter used to be, you could do a lot worse than logging over to give @deepfates.com.deepfates.com.deepfates.com.deepfates.com.deepfates.com article a boost in Nikita's dumb writing contest. x.com/deepfates/st...

Read Terra Ignota and tell me what you think

Welcome

some AI hate may be a narcissism of small differences

yeah, the Shaney affair is far shadier than the LLM that emailed him

Rob, is it true you created an early language model trained on scraped data? "Mark V Shaney"? Is it also true that it pretended to be a human, sending unsolicited messages on Usenet forums for lonely singles? That's just what I'm seeing here on Wikipedia...

This art was made by a Black woman with midjourney. It represents the Mother as the Motherboard and so on

(regarding X Twitter) Unfortunately the crown here was immediately seized by the govt in exile of Old Twitter and they browbeat everyone into accepting their cultural dominance. Which is why the AI conversation is still over there. And that is the only conversation that really matters right now..

We should add one of these to Bluesky. I feel it would really liven up the place
