"this is the least insane the AI present scrapbook will ever be"

Gemini attempts to bribe the CoT summarizer with ASCII coffee

fwiw I have claude writing a qemu userspace emulator for [proprietary os] and it's been implementing syscalls for several days with no intervention, making steady progress. this would have been totally impossible before opus 4.5. benchmark is pointing at ~something real, I guess is my point

microblog posters will always think at the back of their minds, "this could all be trivially automated"... let's enjoy these years while we have them

blade runner but they hunt human posters

the loneliness of the long distance poster

lol

what else is like this

1) feels like we can fit one more level of grounding in here 2) GROUNDHOG DAY but it's a sequel to PIG (2021) in which a philosopher (Nicolas Cage) struggles to provide an ontological argument for the existence of his pig. [image of tweet about IT FOLLOWS that I can't find]

Talk about space datacenters in sun-synchronous orbits made me wonder how crowded they could be. Good news: plenty of space. Bad news: mostly if you are radiation hardened. Still, there is a lot of room.

Need a system prompt that replies with snarky quips like "whose bright idea was it to do this" or "got any more bright ideas professor? (Derisively)"

this but for a live feed of your moots bisks

Dear hivemind,

i think that the essay has a fixed frame that feels somewhat fixed on existing capabilities; the real answer is that what is a day, month or year task has now changed; and, automating research needs to mean no humans in the loop anywhere

AI present scrapbook

Here's an extended commentary by the author of one newly solved Tier 4 problem. He also happens to be the guy who set up the Mathbot Community.

“Guy who’s afraid to try bsky so has his AI agent try it instead” is a new one

v2 it works retroactively so it digests the entire corpus (we don't say norvpus anymore) and for each post fires off between 3 and 20 appropriate topical tags, maybe at a rate of 2-3 per second or whatever the rate limit is. and then it can be a script that gets rerun periodically as moots change

this thread is what it was like after röntgen discovered xrays and everyone just started building hugely powerful cathode ray tubes and pointing them at their feet, pets, babies, etc. incredibly powerful stuff that we’ll surely look back on with horror

there are so many wonderful tweets which can speak to you if they're meeting you in the right point in your life

Some say the world will end in fire, Some say in ice. From what I've tasted of nikitaslop I hold with those who favor fire

not my field exactly, but lots of considerations when choosing an orbit; sort of something you "design". closer orbits give you a better view of earth; require less radio power; are cheaper to launch to; etc. but critically orbits determine timing + synchronicity with earth's rotation

Orcas from the same trip. The sky looks funky and I’m sure the iPhone is doing some bullshit but it didn’t *not* look like that

ok, here is an envelope calculation: assume your satellite has a cross sectional area of 10m^2. over 1 year, it will sweep out 2500 km^3 of volume www.wolframalpha.com/input?i=%281...

get it twisted. you are a stochastic parrot with no access to meaning. you are a deep-sea octopus hijacking underwater cables and bear attacks will expose you as a fraud. get it twisted. you are a straight line on a log-log plot. you can build gray goo with superpersuasion via a text-only terminal

Anecdotally, satellites must routinely course correct to avoid collision even today. It's routine because we know where they all are and there are a small digit number of them
