It’s probably a testament to the growing capabilities of LLMs that I often forget they aren’t coding-optimized, and I can just airdrop in with a coding question and they respond with a contextual answer.

Reminder that anyone talking shit about Anthropic's safety right now is either dumb or bad faith. All smart models will "report you to the FBI" given the right tools and circumstances.

Zoomers using lavalier microphones handheld, and then deciding that it’s awkward to hold your hand so close to someone’s mouth, and so then clipping the lav to an index card or a spatula to give it a handle… might be the thing that breaks me.

I often wave at low-flying planes (like a single engine type) if I can see the cockpit. Usually nothing happens but sometimes they’ll give you a wing wag which is like 100x better than getting a trucker to pull their horn.

Just saw two different videos of people letting Tesla FSD do dumb/illegal things and instead of stopping it immediately they just threw up their hands in confusion. Does FSD retrain your brain to think you’re not culpable? What is going on here?
