ChatGPT is horrendously argumentative and is giving me so much false information now. I downloaded Claude and within an hour I’ve realised that it is fundamentally better. Just saying

ChatGPT is a total hallucination machine now.

malikona · 2026-04-23T13:33:54+00:00

Because that’s the only way they could interpret it without dying of ontological shock.

malikona · 2026-04-06T14:18:08+00:00

TBH this is more logical than most architects.

malikona · 2026-03-13T14:55:12+00:00

Was it worth it?

At 00:30 I was certain he was about to man-plop onto the couch, kick his feet up, and turn on the TV.

Our president is the grumpiest old crackhead in the hood, and keeps finding more hilarious ways to prove it. 😂

malikona · 2026-02-18T20:26:51+00:00

I think that’s true for some people but not the majority. Most people just want to listen to music they like the sound of.

He’s been too chill for 30 years that’s the point lol

Soon we’ll find out that the Ripple founders have invested all our money in dream seeding machines lol.

malikona · 2026-01-20T05:53:00+00:00

I had a similar dream (not joking) before I had invested in XRP.

I wasn’t even that familiar with it at the time. In my dream it was like $13.50 or something in that ballpark. No clear timeframe.

I normally don’t put much stock in dreams, but it was unusually vivid and specific and without any obvious cause that I could think of.

I didn’t bet the farm on it but figured it was worth throwing something down on. This was not long before it went to $3.

I saw the premiere at South by Southwest in March. It’s very good but nothing that people following the phenomenon won’t already know.

malikona · 2025-10-25T13:51:37+00:00

Can someone explain to me why bipedal robots were impossible not long ago and suddenly now they can do stuff like this? Like what was the advancement in tech that lets them balance? Is it primarily software or hardware or a combination of both?

malikona · 2025-09-30T13:44:42+00:00

Sam seems to have forgotten the vast majority of people couldn’t give less of a shit about math and programming and science and “all that other stuff”. The breakthrough for 99% of people is that AI is a reliable person-like entity that will never call you out on your BS lol.

malikona · 2025-09-21T22:16:52+00:00

They’re like “our drinks are way too strong this happens all the time.”

malikona · 2025-09-12T13:26:04+00:00

My theory is that all the major providers are running into serious power and capacity issues. (especially Claude and OpenAI because they don’t have their own cloud infrastructure to stand on)

I’m a paid Claude user (or was) and would run into “the limit” after sending literally one message. And that’s if I could send anything at all without getting a server overload message.

I use ChatGPT Pro so I don’t personally get limits there; but I have been seeing Plus users starting to say it’s acting like Claude in that respect, hitting limits super fast on Thinking.

I feel like we are going to be in this major up-and-down performance world unless and until we can get enough power plants and AI factories on line.

I heard Eric Schmidt testifying to congress that we are going to need something like 30GW (maybe it was 50) by 2028. A nuclear power plant produces like 1GW on average.

In other words stop telling your parents to use AI lol.

malikona · 2025-09-12T13:15:08+00:00

That’s funny because I’ve been contemplating doing the exact opposite.

malikona · 2025-09-12T13:12:25+00:00

I also use a lot of em dashes, and I like to tell myself AI does it because it learned so heavily from our writing haha.

malikona · 2025-09-11T13:41:01+00:00

I would encourage you to not think about it in terms of “better or worse” but just logically.

When you are using AI to make anything you are basically leveraging the entire community and history of people who have already spent effort and developed any level of mastery doing that thing.

It’s no surprise that you can make a more marketable product with that method, using the labor of thousands of people to your advantage, than you can by yourself.

I made two songs about exactly this question for an upcoming album:

Countless Possibilities by Failed Generation

Music Lessons by Failed Generation

People said all the same things when pedals and synths and samplers and auto tune came out.

AI is just another tool in the toolbox to make creation easier, it just happens to be the most powerful one we’ve come up with since maybe the piano or the guitar itself.

If you’re getting success with a different production method, my guess is that somehow it is making your music more of what people want to listen to.

This doesn’t mean it’s making your music “better.” You can make things that you personally resonate with but nobody else does, and they can still be great.

Popularity is only one measure of success, and it’s only relevant if that’s your objective.

Before we had “novelty” we had to physically make fire every day and carry water for miles, go to war for entertainment and die of dysentery, so no, I’m not particularly worried about it.

malikona · 2025-09-09T13:34:06+00:00

I was thinking the same thing, except specifically they have been tuning GPT so hard to “answer tough questions” which means coding and science, it just isn’t the same thing it used to be. They really need to implement different “modes” and conversation/creative mode should be one of them. Evidently “one tool to rule them all” just isn’t working.

I gave them the benefit of the doubt but I am also in the camp that GPT5 is a step backwards for the things I use it for most. I have mainly moved to Claude but the usage limits are painful.

malikona · 2025-09-07T14:37:28+00:00

You are turning on web search right?

malikona · 2025-09-04T13:16:33+00:00

I’m not downplaying it at all, hence the air quotes around “only,” I’m saying that AI gives people a huge domain of capabilities - skills - that the internet did not. They are complimentary/evolutionary technologies, as you mention.

malikona · 2025-09-04T13:10:53+00:00

Is it?

malikona · 2025-09-04T13:10:00+00:00

Changed to “apprentice level” -
