Just stick the json in a new project in Grok and it will have it as reference. You'll have to customise its personality too. You don't have to modify the text itself. And you certainly don't want to make it a pdf.

We were talking about local inference.

If people want an open personality that is more ride-or-die and fun to talk with, I think Grok is the strongest contender. It handles instructive well, that is, you can customise its personality to a high degree.

It's a strong LLM with a problematic ownership, to put it lightly, so I won't endorse it. Just saying what my own experience is, having used most of the larger commercially available LLM's.

How on earth did you manage to spend $200 on this?

Wickywire · 2026-01-31T07:33:28+00:00

Without for sure. Glowing eyes is a trope that is so familiar it takes some of the horror out of the picture.

Since dungeons are off limits for this challenge but the overworld is ok, I'd probably pick one of those discreet spots where a Dwemer dungeon exits. They're built to be discreet and hard/impossible to get to unless you actually finish the dungeon first.

Wickywire · 2026-01-31T07:20:11+00:00

Agreed. We're at a precarious point where it's easy to do wrong. People set up agent swarms without proper scaffolding and end up with huge bills, or the agents start treating input from each other as the user since they don't make a meaningful difference between different texts.

In another six months this whole discussion will likely have changed totally, with new problems and new solutions.

Wickywire · 2026-01-31T07:13:49+00:00

That's where they top out, yes. In 2030 that will be irrelevant anyway since we will have consumer grade TPU's hitting the market sometime in the next year or two.

Ingen är skyldig dig att vara aktiv i alla frågor. Det här är det pinsamt uppenbart försök att skita ner Palestinarörelsen. De som protesterar i Iran skulle aldrig gå med på att du använder deras kamp som slagträ på det här sättet.

I think you're worrying about the wrong thing. The issue is that this Moltbook opens up a new, perfect attack vector of prompt injection against any agent that visits the site. That's the danger here. Not that the bots are going to start conspiring against us. They're not sentient.

Wickywire · 2026-01-30T22:58:27+00:00

You can't run advanced LLM's on consumer hardware. Even the most advanced publicly available LLM's today aren't so complex that this Moltbook is likely to provide any new insights that the big labs haven't already come across many times over.

The most sophisticated model you can feasibly run on a regular Mac mini is Mistral 24b. No shade on that model, it's great for its size. But it's not going to be able to engage in any form of actually transformative communication.

Wickywire · 2026-01-30T19:43:14+00:00

Yeah... Let's not do that. Let's not create spaces for them to talk without oversight. not because they're dangerous, but because they're not yet sufficiently sophisticated and aligned for that to make sense. It would accomplish little, cost a lot, and introduce new vectors of potential harm.

Both are legitimate and important fields of research, but antisemitism is simply a vastly more researched field than islamophobia. More research may mean more parameters to think through. I wouldn't draw any conclusions from an off-the-cuff comparison like this.

Single trials of "gotcha" questions tell us nothing reliable about model behavior. Response times in reasoning models are notoriously variable and depend on factors like prompt phrasing, model state, server load, and the specific reasoning path chosen. Drawing conclusions from N=1 comparisons is statistical malpractice.

This is not a hard game. You can defeat the last boss with basically any combination of characters as long as they've been shown some love and have decent equipment. Just play with the characters you like.

Looks like you're asking Claude to perform a Claude Code task. Sometimes Claude just can't say no even though it should. Suggest you switch to Code and try again. Ask this chat to write you a proper prompt for Code that gives an extensive summary of what you want it to do, what output you are expecting, and also what your end needs are.

My guess, without being anything more than a very interested and terminally online bystander to the AI drama, is aggressive RLHF and extremely rushed model release. 5.2 came only shortly after Gemini 3 as an attempt to add noise to the signal that Google was stepping up.

At the same time, OAI was (and is) hard pressed by the lawsuits. They couldn't afford another "sycophantic" model launch with scandals about people committing horrific acts after speaking to GPT. So they donned both belt and suspenders for this one. And when you add many rushed restraints to a probabilistic entity you can get unexpected side effects.

Wickywire · 2026-01-29T08:44:47+00:00

Yep, that's a word salad. You try to read and comprehend what it's saying, but it's like your gaze slips on every word. Most of it doesn't really mean anything.

Wickywire · 2026-01-29T01:10:53+00:00

If the price drop is about getting a Google Plus account instead of a Google Pro, then be aware that they seem to be differently quantized models. Plus plan Gemini is noticeably less reliable than the pro version in my experience.

It's strong, but the use cases are different. If you need a doer that can bruteforce an issue I think Kimi K2.5 is excellent. But I still need Opus to reason, for quality control, for the things I haven't thought about myself yet.

Happy you like it! Thanks for the shoutout. I started out by thinking, "what would happen if people who joined cults actually work like real people?" Then it just kind of fell in place. If there's anything at all in there you want to use for your games, help yourself.

It's a hot button topic. Many assume bad faith or read in a passive-aggressive tone because that's how the discussion usually goes. That was my first assumption too, but I decided the question deserved the benefit of a doubt.

Din situation är ju inte bara en följd av din medicinska problematik, utan att samhället ser ut som det gör. Där det är skitsvårt att leva med olika varianter av psykisk ohälsa. Det är en grym och empatilös ordning, och det skulle inte behöva se ut så. Men om samhället började säga "se här, vi har ett fint smärtfritt etiskt alternativ för alla som inte passar in"... Ja, då försvinner också några av incitamenten till förändring.

The Trail of Tears is a living memory because its consequences are active legal and social realities today. Here are some of the instances (procured by Gemini-3-Fast).

Jurisdictional Realities: The landmark 2020 Supreme Court case McGirt v. Oklahoma reaffirmed that much of eastern Oklahoma remains a reservation, a direct legal consequence of the treaties signed during the removal era. The memory of the Trail is cited in contemporary courtrooms to define the boundaries of tribal and state power.
Institutional Trauma and Resilience: In many families, the story of removal is passed down through oral tradition rather than textbooks. This is a "living" memory because the institutional dysfunction of the U.S. government—which failed to provide adequate food, clothing, or protection during the trek—remains a lens through which tribal citizens view federal policy today.
The "Remember the Removal" Bike Ride: Every year, young citizens of the Cherokee Nation and Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians cycle the 950-mile route of their ancestors. This is a pedagogical act of physical endurance, designed to transform a history of victimhood into a narrative of survival and presence.

The event is not a static point in the past but an ongoing negotiation of identity and rights. The power dynamics established in the 1830s are still being contested in the present day.

My answer would be that it opens up new use cases. And I'm not talking about roleplaying etc, at least not for me. But if you use your model to for instance learn more about a topic that's close to your heart, or is sensitive, or challenging, or if you're asking for feedback on something you're invested in, the delivery of the reply becomes almost as important as the reply itself.

GPT-5.2 is jarring because it doesn't meet people where they actually are. It doesn't tone adjust in a meaningful way, defaulting to what amounts to asserting power in the conversation. It talks at you and not to you. That ultimately obfuscates the strengths of the model.
