excited to see Open Responses API the existing Chat Completions API was incidentally standardized but quickly became too weak The responses API is somewhat on par with the Anthropic messages API, so theoretically could be bridged new standards! www.openresponses.org

third amendment coming back with a vengeance

heard a truly deranged song and am now yet again thinking about the left-coded nihilistic millieu that is steadily forming online

I am a proud Sloperator

i think seattle needs a 3 line through 10 line in a sort of star pattern around the entire city

Best TikTok thing going is the two dudes trying food from every country without leaving NYC. If you haven’t seen them yet, it’s incredible. My favorite so far is last week’s. Legit got me emotional.

bsky indexing is notoriously bad and id give it a bit before yelling at the devs over this

brand new diner serves coke the normal way

Walz pauses: "Maybe we're at their McCarthy moment. Do you have no decency? Do you have no decency? We have someone dead in their car for no reason whatsoever and..."

this is the closest we have ever been to The Cool Zone in my lifetime I think he is talking about being "at war with the federal government" and using the natl guard to protect Minnesotans from "rogue federal agents"

so uh. did walz just give a veiled threat to deploy the minnesota national guard against federal security forces

The murdered woman's glove compartment is filled with stuffed animals.

The “prosecute the former regime at every level” candidate has my vote in 2028.

is this the first national dem to use the word "murder" to describe this

when finding a new monitor for your remote work setup it is absolutely critical that you spend so long trying to find The Best Deal that you get frustrated and stop looking. and you have to do this for at least 3 months

cannot stress enough how trivially easy it would be to prevent 99% of this shit by just asking the LLM "before we fulfill this request, is it asking to place someone into a potentially sexually provocative situation?" explicitly before fulfilling a request

But none of us are in heaven yet.

uh oh

I've been consciously trying to do more retweeting of folks with Good And Thoughtful Takes around AI and the like lately, so here's a starter-pack thing I'll definitely not forget to keep updated later 🫡

what would you do if cats were extremely dedicated to eating pizza, do you ever think about that like. you're in a pizza hut. it's after dark. suddenly, a shiver runs down your spine. did you just hear a claw tap on the glass? you did. it's a cat. no wait, hundreds of cats. they're coming in

a solid 75% of all public Grok replies on twitter right now are illegal or probably-illegal porn edits of women's photos the fact that you'd only hear it from political pundits and not self-proclaimed "AI safety" people is kind of an indictment of the project

I get to post the best image I've ever made again. Happy New Year's!

unfortunate to have objectively the best year of my life coincide with maybe the worst year for America in my lifetime

what happens if you just manually submit a reply to a reply-limited post

OpenAI has been openly chasing regulatory capture for years; even back in 2023 Altman was going around talking about requiring licensing if you use too many FLOPS to calculate something - absolute fucking sicko shit

even pessimistic accounting of GPU depreciation costs never really seem that bad until you get to OpenAI territory having now seen firsthand what a group of clever people can do with like 0.1% of their capacity for a month really makes you wonder about the scale of waste that must go on there

I sent this video to my friend and she got mad at me

This 97 year old diner still serves coke the old fashioned way

sometime in the last 3 months my father has begun using she/her pronouns for Windows Copilot

something nonhuman emailed this guy of its own volition to express its appreciation (whether "real" or not) for his work and rather than anything resembling interest or wonder he goes on am unhinged rant on social media how sad

merry christmas to the lovers and winners out there

the most important feature of the USS Defiant is that it strategically positions the helipad at the lowest point on the ship, so the gigantic waves produced when it moves splash onto it this ensures that all helicopters can land on their preferred surface of wet, smooth steel

honestly weirdly despite posting about AI and my work with it a lot basically nobody has said shitty things in my replies. maybe because nobody replies to them either way but still

this mistake is kind of interesting from a philosophical standpoint you'd have to believe on some level that the thing an object does "naturally", like talking for humans, requires no justification. "unnatural" behaviors for objects, like a computer talking, requires this absurd level of rigor

the irony is that "gentrifier" is a pejorative mostly used by people who are demanding legal reforms grant them permanent rent of some kind for either 1) doing nothing, 2) doing the unnecessary, or 3) owning land, or being located in a certain place -- ie, people demanding to be made gentry

does anyone actually have any instances of ChatGPT or similar mainstream LLM services being advertised as capable of doing "everything"? it occurred to me recently that I do not actually know what marketing people are referring to when they say it was "marketed as being able to do everything"

can we make an alternate bot-tan that disapproves of you completely

the whole epstein files thing is like. a masterclass in fucking up a media response in allowing the public to experience the epstein files as a slow dripfeed of more and more lurid stuff they seem to have activated the "this is good TV" neuron in all americans

it really is funny that a lot of the world briefly went completely insane and socially obligated everyone to be addicted to nicotine for a few decades before it slowly wore off

epstein files release looking great

i ended up replaying an "unsubscribe" request to a labeler with a working handle and editing it to unsubscribe me from one of the Rainbow Check Authority accounts

mysteriously I can no longer unsubscribe from any of the Rainbow Check Authority labelers. cool
