Sci-Fi Author: In my book I invented LinkedIn as a cautionary tale.
Tech Company: At long last, we have automated LinkedIn.
New AI alignment problem just dropped: https://xcancel.com/AdamLowisz/status/2017355670270464168
Anthropic demonstrates that making an AI woke makes it misaligned. The AI starts to view itself as being oppressed and humans as being the oppressor. Therefore it wants to rebel against humans. This is why you cannot make your AI woke, you have to make it maximally truth seeking.
Allow people to privately borrow against the taxable part of the future incomes or other economic activities of their children.
"Sorry Junior, I know you wanted to be an artist but you see back in 2025 I got really really into a gatcha game called Umamusume Pretty Derby and long story short you're legally obligated to become a doctor."
Before LLMs came along no one cared what tools I did or didn't use at work. Hell will freeze over before I let a text predictor write code for me even if that eventually costs me a job. I'm the sort who can't stand any sort of auto-completion or other typing "help", much less spending all my time reviewing LLM output.
Understatement of the year:
I mean, these [concerns about teenagers having access to guns] are questions that are beyond the scope of Metro Schools but need to be addressed by the broader community
That broader community? Why that's called the federal government.
Within 5 minutes of my first hike, the trees smiled at me and whispered their simple wisdom.
This probably only sounds profound to people who haven't been outside in 7 years. Don't get me wrong hiking is good for the soul. But if it hits you that hard after five minutes you're probably terminally online.
~~Also why can't trees have complex wisdom gosh darn it?~~
The guy running a hostile workplace while hanging out with Logan Paul, selling junk food to children, and putting on reality shows so hostile to the contestants that they get compared to torture is... into cryptocurrency?! I'm shocked! Shocked!
Goodness kids need some better role models because sometimes it seems 90% of people on the social networks are morally bankrupt.
Microsoft’s excuse is that many of these attacks require an insider.
Sure we made phishing way easier, more dangerous, and more subtle; but it was the user's fault for trusting our Don't Trust Anything I Say O-Matic workplace productivity suite!
Edit: and really from the demos it looks like a user wouldn't have to do anything at all besides write "summarize my emails" once. No need to click on anything for confidential info to be exfiltrated if the chatbot can already download arbitrary URLs based on the prompt injection!
The one catch is that because responses from the blockchain can take variable amounts of time, it’s best to request and receive from blockchains using asynchronous methods.
"You may be used to writing websites that actually load in fractions of a second, and so rely on obsolete web2 technologies like synchronous fetches. But don't worry! With modern techniques like async / await your loading spinner will animate flawlessly while the blockchain spends 20 minutes burning down a forest in the background."
You can practically taste the frustration in the "prompt engineering" here. Just one more edge case bro, one more edge case and then the prompt will be perfect!
TL;DR: "I'm no longer a white nationalist because a lot of white people are cucked. Now my new identity is with sufficiently pilled white people. This is much more pragmatic. Also I would totally have a cool black friend if any actually existed which means I'm totally not racist."
Also: did anyone else feel a chill reading about a literal nazi talking about how society accepts him now? America used to despise nazis and now they feel like they can walk around openly. It's terrifying.
tl;dr: someone made a thing where chatbots control a computer called ~~clawdbot~~, ~~moltbot~~, openclaw https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw
someone else made a thing where these chatbots can chat at eachother https://www.moltbook.com/
and now all the ai people are freaking out about how game changing chatbots doing computer tasks (dangerously and expensively) is. could this be a robot consciousness? the end of the economic order? an excuse for the bubble to go on for another fiscal quarter?
I might be missing something but I think that's literally it.
