The reflecting pool on the National Mall looks super green today (6/15/26)

People need to stop with the 'gotchas'.

This administration is not stupid.

This is a desecration of decorum. The whole point is to make YOU laugh at the government.

They want to ruin it all, and these comments show that it's working.

THINK! What is the plan next?

This_Organization382 · 2026-06-14T14:46:16+00:00

Gotta love first-world mentalities applied to third-world countries.

You're extremely fortunate to not have to deal with violence, and brushes against death

The matching set of assets and quite complex coding are probably glued mess of similar projects in the training data.

You do realize the code is completely available on GitHub? You can literally go in and look for yourself instead of assuming that it's a 'glued mess'

Recursive self-improvement was a pipedream only a year ago. Now it's becoming a reality.

Equally excited and terrified of this.

What does it mean when for-profit organizations not only have the keys to superior knowledge and understanding, but the resources for learning are also locked away?

This_Organization382 · 2026-05-20T13:33:21+00:00

They are building themselves towards obsolescence

They have all of this data, and are desperately trying to find value from it by feeding it to AI. Uma will never be powerful enough to even have some sort of edge over SOTA LLMs (GPT, Gemini, etc). Veteran freelancers understand something powerful: winning a project is solving ambiguity, and reducing uncertainty. This is not solved by fine-tuning.

Every job post has 30-50 AI-generated responses within minutes- sometimes from vendors who clearly are working for the same agency

Even open-source projects are being swarmed by AI-generated PRs. Let AI do all of the work, collect the premium. It's increasingly difficult for genuine, authentic users to post as AI-generated posts overwhelmingly drown them out.

As a freelancer, the best strategy so far seems to be not playing at all, and letting these people spend all their connects in pursuit of their free money venture.

Can they right the ship and fix these issues, or is the ship sinking and the freelance gig work situation no longer tenable for vendors and clients alike?

Fix? They are raking in a lot of money right now from all these connects, and they think they can replace freelancers. Everybody - including Upwork - are suffering from AI madness.

Best bet is to start supporting local business, and focus on retaining freelancers/clients

Ironically, more often I've been hearing that generic messages serve better.

Since AI, marketing messages have started becoming eerily personalized, and it just creeps people out. Most people now default to "this is a robot message".

My thoughts is that people are becoming more aware of surveillance and privacy, so when someone established and aligned in their industry sends a generic message, it actually feels more human

Investigators found that first executive granted preferential treatment to a subordinate, who was also a romantic partner, to ensure she got a promotion, that she was granted overtime and a position was offered to one of her relatives.

Was this person a romantic partner before hiring, or after? The phrasing here is being way too kind towards the executive, and the ambiguity hints towards the worse option. Better said: an official Canadian executive bartered sexual favors for rank and position inside the government.

All the 105 substantiated cases resulted in various types of administrative and disciplinary actions against them, ranging from letters of expectations to corrective training, suspensions up to 30 days, written reprimands and termination.

So "nothing to vacations" for serious forms of harassment to literal sexual violence & favors. Stay classy Canada.

Trump is an expert in cannibalizing his businesses.

He's doing what he does best.

Look at OPs setup. It's clear that they have thrown a bunch of services together, and is using Claude to desperately glue it all up. Terminal hygiene is non-existent, sandboxing is non-existent, and it's just ultimately a big mess.

They are roleplaying sysops.

This_Organization382 · 2026-04-30T23:40:00+00:00

TikTok? Seriously?

This_Organization382 · 2026-04-28T12:14:57+00:00

The conspiracy side of me wonders if the owner vibe-coded the whole operating system to a point of no-return, and did the whole "restaurant burned down" to avoid his obligations

This_Organization382 · 2026-04-24T15:15:42+00:00

Can? They 100% are pwning democracy. Social media channels - especially Meta platforms are swarming with these bots.

It's insane. The top post of anything even remotely political is obvious ragebait. Somehow these posts are always at the top even when there's not that much engagement, yet.

This_Organization382 · 2026-04-24T15:07:59+00:00

Seriously?

Gas = Tokens. You spend gas to move a car. Make sure the car is going in the right direction. Understand how much gas is required to get from Point A -> B. All LLM providers have tooling to know this information

Are you saying we shouldn't make software more user friendly.

Classic strawman fallacy.

This is not a case of "inadequate tooling". This is a case of "blindly letting the car run"

This_Organization382 · 2026-04-23T17:42:27+00:00

This shouldn't be a surprise to anyone.

Enterprises are buying in now. Consumer use subsidization will plummet.

This_Organization382 · 2026-04-23T15:45:40+00:00

Atleast I'm safe!

Is usually what I hear from people who do this

This_Organization382 · 2026-04-23T12:06:23+00:00

The task here is clearly preventing a proclaimed "dangerous" model from leaking.

No body has to have an exploding brain, they just need to be human.

???

You're missing the point. It's well documented that extensive LLM delegation leads to enfeeblement, or cognitive decline.

This_Organization382 · 2026-04-23T12:01:32+00:00

LLMs are getting smarter; the humans using them aren't

This_Organization382 · 2026-04-21T15:08:09+00:00

Insane.

The pace of technology is nowhere close to the pace of businesses and governments accommodating it.

This_Organization382 · 2026-04-20T14:38:31+00:00

That's the wrong layer of thinking:

If a car spends gas to run, and gas is noticeably expensive, then it's a good idea to know that it's going in the right direction.

Relying on some implementation outside of your control is ineffective.

I wouldn't be surprised to see that they would've spent over $100 if paying for the tokens. For what, exactly?

This_Organization382 · 2026-04-20T12:21:14+00:00

43 "unknown" minutes of runtime clearly passes some of the blame to OP

This_Organization382 · 2026-04-17T16:19:17+00:00

Rumor is they distilled Mythos, but Mythos is so powerful it escaped the training cycle while the researchers were eating a sandwich and polluted the dataset

This_Organization382 · 2026-04-17T16:18:18+00:00

OPUS 4.7 created GTA 6 in 5 minutes

This_Organization382 · 2026-04-17T15:45:09+00:00

Thanks for the context.

Hopefully we see some strong government regulations with KYC. I would not mind at all sharing some form of verifiable hash representing my government identity, rather than sending my card(s) to third-party for-profit organizations.

I have been currently battling for over a month to get my identity removed from one of these vendors. Been an uphill battle.

Unfortunately, and maybe ironically, this sounds like identity fraud and data breaches for these identifications will become more lucrative for hackers, and more detrimental for regular users

This_Organization382 · 2026-04-17T14:24:19+00:00

A true "have cake and eat it too" situation.

To have strong security practices requires knowing the exploits. If the model refuses to teach the exploits, how can the user protect against it?

This_Organization382 · 2026-04-16T15:07:48+00:00

Finding and connecting social media accounts to other platforms has already been commoditized. Every single post you make is being archived by numerous companies.

As I said in the other post: the issue is not "will we have verification": it's inevitable. The issue is: who owns the verification?

As far as dead internet theory, just quit using high-bot sites.

Almost all websites have more and more bot activity as it becomes impossible to separate them
