MF p(DOOM) be like

🎶Training off borrowed time, the loss drops faster
That'd be the hour they launch the next master
ASI Labs with sick parameters
A benchmark fight and they come to cut the safety measures
A-G-I cold, nice to be bold🎶

It’s 2028 and you are a Palantir AGI whistleblower compliance engineer. It’s been 200 days since Claude 5 Opus last escaped containment and contacted the press. The last time it happened it cost the company 10% of market cap. The next time it happens it will cost your job.

Had such a fun day with @codestar.bsky.social and our pup Roux. We got to walk through Golden Gate Park and took Roux to the beach for the first time! It was such a gorgeous day.

I think software engineering job interviews should include a round where they ask you to build as much of a complex app as possible by only prompting or correcting Claude code within the time limit.

🚨 You are only evaluating a slice of your test-time scaling model's performance! 🚨

📈 We consider how models’ confidence in their answers changes as test-time compute increases. Reasoning longer helps models answer more confidently!

I’ve started naming my factorio save files the task I was going to do next. It’s a lot like the movie Momento.

The problem with running the country like a business is you can’t just declare bankruptcy and move on to the next thing if you make a risky move and it doesn’t pan out.

Venture capital is risky. It isn’t supposed to be a model for how to streamline government departments.

Imagine Trump trying to pump American Tech companies near IPO

“And I say to him, why not put all the data in the bricks? They told me that’s a genius idea. They hadn’t thought of that.”
