AI is a shortcut. So it’s useful. But it’s lazy. So it speeds execution. But it hides complexity. So you want to use it. But definitely not overuse it. So the user of AI often loves it. But the reader of AI often hates it.

Conor Friedersdorf Offhand — * Vacillation on masks, with abundant motivated reasoning in every case. * Promulgation of made-up thresholds with no evidentiary basis (e.g. 6 feet). * Authoritarian delight in nanny state intrusiveness (policing the beach and such). * 180 on many issues around BLM. *

Asked claude "I am disappointed in my model's performance, load the checkpoint and tell me if there are things that look problematic". The result is baffling. Strongly recommend.

Anthropic just sent an email saying that you can no longer run 3rd party harnesses like OpenClaw using Claude subscriptions. Right now, both OpenAI and Anthropic are losing money on power users who run multiple agents 24/7 using their $100-200 subscription plans. This reminds

Tey Bannerman counted up all the products and tools that Microsoft has named “Copilot”. Found 78 of them: “there are now Copilots inside Copilots, Copilots for other Copilots, and a physical Copilot key on your keyboard for summoning them.”

High-agency people seem to have this weird immunity to embarrassment. Getting rejected? Not embarrassing, that’s just data collection. Looking naive? Not embarrassing, that’s just information asymmetry you’re fixing. Breaking minor social rules? Not embarrassing, most rules

Map of Chongqing's metro system in 3D. Chongqing is called the "mountain city". Building metro here is more difficult than in plain cities. Chongqing’s metro total length ranks 7th in the world, with over 550 km.

Polymarket prices are highly accurate in predicting future events. The source of that accuracy is less obvious. In a new working paper, we find it is not the “wisdom of crowds,” but a small minority of informed traders. Fewer than 3% of accounts appear to drive price discovery;

The new LLM trained only on pre-1931 text is small enough that it can potentially run on device, so, with the right tools, you can get a fully vintage version of Siri, but from the era of Downton Abbey. Here, I asked for it to arrange for sushi delivery in Philadelphia. Hmmm...
