Utterly rancid linkedin post:

lmao fuck off

It’s an anti-fun version of listening to dark side of the moon while watching the wizard of oz.

You didn’t link to the study; you linked to the PR release for the study. This and this are the papers linked in the blog post.

Note that the papers haven’t been published anywhere other than on Anthropic’s online journal. Also, what the papers are doing is essentially tea leaf reading. They take a look at the swill of tokens, point at some clusters, and say, “there’s a dog!” or “that’s a bird!” or “bitcoin is going up this year!”. It’s all rubbish dawg

This needed a TW jfc (jk, uh, sorta)

“Notably, O3-MINI, despite being one of the best reasoning models, frequently skipped essential proof steps by labeling them as “trivial”, even when their validity was crucial.”

LLMs achieve reasoning level of average rationalist

I’ve already depicted you as the virgin Robespierre… and that’s the limit of my knowledge wrt figures in the french revolution.

Yeah, accelerationism before e/acc always had the consequential component of “society breaks down as a result of the rapidly worsening situation”. So like many things out there, tech people have co-opted this term and corrupted its meaning. M18n, in his deranged e/acc post, decided that the accelerationism part just meant the gotta go fast part; his assertion was that more tech fast == more society gooder, with no mention of “democracy collapses and the tech bros take over”

Amazing. Who would have thought that an idiot regressive trying to turn the clock back to the 50’s would be such an impediment to e/acc.

Also: I mean trump is still accelerationist, just not in the way (all) the e/accs necessarily want. For the e/accs only concerned about the tech side of things, trump is demonstrably decel. But trump is accelerationist for the cryptofascists.

Bruh what is the fuckin y axis on this bad boi??

words that the AI-O-sphere are gonna vomit

OH. so two things.

1. I obviously misread your comment, as my brain filtered “likes” into “views” as I guess it subconsciously thought that was more plausible.
2. I believe on tiktok live specifically, you can like something multiple times, and it is counted. I occasionally watch a stream that floats at about 100 viewers, and sometimes this hits 100k likes over the course of two hours. So to hit 350m likes over the course of 25 hours, you might need like 280 viewers on average, which seems doable.*

*Please fact check this arithmetic. I have run out of motivation, in general

Edit #100: I jumped on said stream to see how it was going. Floating around 100, but hitting maybe 10k likes per hour. Apparently the booker stream hit 170k viewers at the tail end. 350m likes might actually be a little low, the dems need to up their spend on tiktok boosting

well ackthscthually after 9/11, the whole world got isekai’d where everyone exists in a game-like status point system. The 1st world is reserved for the top rank of humans, the n+1th world is worse than the nth world. IQ points = your int stat. This is just how it is, sorry

Jesus, what a fuck. Having spent time in both SF and NYC my guess is that this shithead’s SF pedestrian experience is getting in and out of ubers and the treadmills at equinox. That, and he is probably outwardly disdainful, which doesn’t go over well in NYC.

not odd, as I think nobody cares about Booker his filibuster thing (stick a pin in that)

I agree, or at least anyone thinking critically. I think that anyone would agree that the speech was, as you said, hopium. He’s giving braindead dem voters what they want: a nice, tall, liberal man who looks like he is resisting the reds. Expect him to run for the democratic nomination in 2028, assuming the trump presidency lets an election happen.

RE: view counts. Most charitably, maybe it’s 300m views aggregated across different sources. Neutrally, I mean I wouldn’t be surprised if tiktok, or any other social media platform was manipulating view counts. Least charitably, someone probably asked an LLM for the view counts and just took the answer because people are fucking stupid

These fuckin nerds don’t care about the imitation game, they only want the imitation gams

First graph reminds me of that ‘human progress stunted by dark ages/Catholic church’ image which makes historians so mad.

But muh religon bad

The fact that the turing test is still the go-to example of a machine intelligence test goes to show that the AI field needs more haters in it.

shout out to the “legions of CCP spies”, if you’re listening
