my nuclear-grade AI hot take that’s sure to get me cancelled until kingdom come is that refusing to use AI at all is rapidly becoming an extremely privileged lifestyle choice that feels social justice-y while actually being the complete opposite

damn that’s crazy

Boston’s chief planner is a true believer in the San Francisco model, in which you make it impossible to profitably build apartments by-right so developers are forced into a politicized discretionary negotiation with the city, which relaxes the rules in exchange for below-market units.

the floor for a swe in q4 2026 is that you must deliver staff+ impact. it really feels like we’re moving to a world where the only people who formally have the title “swe” will have $1m+ TC but simultaneously all other jobs will have a swe component

i was job hunting in 2023 and talked to a friend at oai who matter-of-factly told me she thought there was a good chance that in a few years, a double digit percentage of global GDP would flow through a handful of AI companies. anyway

i would spend so much money helping with this if i wasn’t immediately sent to jail for trying

I've been meaning to get around to posting the full details, so what the hell - why not get it out while it's still Vuln Week: Anthropic's mech interp driven security model is built on a fundamentally incorrect assumptions. Let's dive in, starting with this paper: www.anthropic.com/research/nex...

About a year ago, I got really into making glitch art exploring the edge cases & failure modes of machine cognition. This had some unexpected applications. Here’s the result: recursion.wtf/posts/claude... I've shared the relevant logs & artifacts with Anthropic, and the matter is under review.
