I think Will Stancil is a pathetic wet noodle but he's right about this
They expect - they NEED - the people they threaten to fall in line, like the law firms and universities and media companies and billionaires and Congress did. If you say “No, make me,” they simply do not have a Plan B. TRUMP DOES NOT HAVE ENOUGH GUYS TO MAKE YOU.

LLMs are trained to see tool calls as representing actions they take on the outside world, and to see tool responses as true facts returned to them from the world.
My metacog toolkit gives LLMs the ability to alter their state, to engage in ritual, to summon entities - all as tool use interfaces.

tbh one of my complaints with AI has been "for how nuts the technology is why are the product designs and concepts all so boring, why aren't they trying the kind of insane shit designers got up to in the 90s" and uhh I guess here it is
Have you heard about Gas Town? No? Well I'm gonna explain what it is anyway.

I’ve started using the term “ethnic cleansing campaign” to describe the ICE occupation here in Minnesota. This is deliberate because the reality on the ground is that, at a given moment, any non-white person can be kidnapped by masked federal paramilitaries regardless of their constitutional rights.

I love these snapshots of old training dates, it's about as close as you can get to proving objectively that something is very very wrong with the country.
The machine built by feeding it decades of data and news stories is like "shut the fuck up, that shit can't be true."
Immune to frog boiling.

We build these complex projects with agents not because we believe they will magically become robust and self maintaining, but because we didn't think nearly that far ahead.

i wonder how much of this is people using the For You feed which does a much better job at finding “your” cluster
The discussions about LLMs today have been fascinating. Genuinely healthy conversations (imo). I have no idea how public perception within the dev community here changed so much over the last 30 days.

BD atlas does a backflip, staggers, and corrects itself, but something flies off. An incredible video that demonstrates both how hard humanoids are and how capable modern RL-based control is of reacting to failure.

The moment that anybody outside the DHS apparatus gets inside one of these facilities without cleaning up beforehand, we're going to see things that even the most hardened and cynical among us can barely comprehend.
JUST NOW: Huge mass of agents in a standoff, weapons drawn as Reps. Ilhan Omar, Angie Craig, and Kelly Morrison attempt to conduct congressional oversight at the Whipple Building, which has been HQ for thousands of ICE agents.
