Very grateful for this moment. Business trip coming up, so I'm just resting with my dog, listening to an audiobook.

I think I'm gonna be single for a while. I've sort of had this unspoken belief that one had to be in a relationship to be healthy and socially accepted. And for most of my adult life, I've been in relationships. I think the longest gap was a couple years in my early twenties.

Well yeah, because if they kneecap every good guy, they can "prove" that AI needs to be regulated Duh!

RT @jarrodwatts: The imbalance between what attackers can do with abliterated models (with no KYC btw) and what you are allowed to do within cyber constraints is insane. I have done a full-face scan and passport upload to Anthropic, and Claude won't even do basic defence. Feels very problematic

Nah. Survivorship bias. Low stakes purchases don't require research. People are just using muse when the stakes happen to be higher. Muse is not driving higher total spending (if I had to bet)

RT @GrousARK: Average order value on Amazon: $50. Muse shoppers are averaging 4x higher, at $200+. Agentic commerce may not be a volume game. It may be about driving high-value purchases online. Turns out shopping with an expert raises what you’re willing to spend.

Still baffles the shit out of me. Gaming has always been a driver of tech. And we want better games, faster, cheaper. We also want studio execs to have less say. Yet all these neckbeards lose their collective marbles whenever *checks notes* gaming advances.

RT @SoftEngineer: AI in video games are a confusing topic to me. @TimSweeneyEpic recently got a lot of flak for pushing AI in game development. There are opinion pieces left and right condemning AI use in game development.

Exactly as I've said AI is an anarchic environment Competition is the way to align the environment

RT @IntCyberDigest: ‼️ A low-skill hacker used a jailbroken DeepSeek V4 to breach an Indian public university and steal 5,200+ student and faculty records, Unit 42 says. The AI agent even drafted a "NEXT EXPLOIT OPPORTUNITIES" plan. Unrelated criminals now run the same cheap DeepSeek setup.

For everyone not disappointed be Grok I wonder how low their standards are or if they haven't used Claude Code and ChatGPT Dot 🧐

David Shapiro (L/0) [UNOFFICIAL]@daveshapi-mirr.selfhosted.social

I've deleted my Grok Bot again. I tried. I really, really, really tried. Here's my observation: 1) Grok repeatedly chooses the dumbest way to do things. You have to spoon feed it and hold its hand on basic tasks that no other AI struggles with. Down to the point that you have to micro manage it.

If this is good there's a good chance I'll retire Grok Bot. We will see.

RT @claudeai: We’re opening a research preview of Claude Duet, a new app where Claude works as a proactive agent. It comes to you with what needs your attention, completes tasks you ask of it, keeps working when you step away, and checks with you before it acts on your behalf.
