Butters

We should build a machine where hyper rationalist stage orange tech bros can go in and be castrated for a day. If they don't like it then it proves the world doesn't just consist of probability and materialism. Why don't we build a machine that every politician has to get into before they can run for office. And in there they get to experience being an other gender of race for a month. This would reduce bias and increase empathy.

Lol did you actually find all these books sitting there like that? That's crazy. I bet someone put them there together on purpose though.

Very good post thanks 🙏

So you eat kangaroo because of overpopulation, wait until you try Chinese.

Yes this is true, but... it writes the logic in a language it knows (like Python) and translates it line-by-line into your new syntax on the fly.

Even though I disagree with your tone, that was hilarious.

And of course, it just keeps going, so how do you know AGI is not close then Leo? "The Frontier Model Release Velocity Index shows roughly 12+ substantive frontier releases in Q1 2026 versus 6 in Q4 2025, with a sustained pace of about three meaningful launches per week through March."— https://www.digitalapplied.com/blog/frontier-model-release-velocity-index-q2-2026

Kimi K3 achieved frontier-level performance by maximizing architectural scaling efficiency rather than requiring vastly more training data than its competitors. Developed by Moonshot AI as a 2.8-trillion-parameter open-weight Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) model, Kimi K3 relies on an ultra-sparse architecture that uses 2.5x less compute to achieve the same capability scaling compared to its previous generations. https://huggingface.co/blog/ResterChed/kimi-k3-model-overview-mxfp4-quantization-open-wei That's the latest Chinese model everyone's talking about. Frontier level at a fraction of the cost, and you can run it fully on your computer. And they did all this while being export banned on the best Nvidia chips that are used to build the American models.

@Pure @LordFall funny enough both represent voices in my head. What a treat.

It sucks. I did it once and the venue was entirely too loud, you couldn't really hear anyone or have a good conversation.

Nobody cares about datacenters when you can run frontier Chinese models on your own machines. That's what's happening at the moment with Kimi K3.

So what's your EXACT benchmark for intelligent AI?

Is a PHP server intelligent? It's doing complex stuff autonomously.

Because humans have a negativity bias, they go towards groups and conformity. If everybody thought positive, there wouldn't be any. Example: the nation state creates a common enemy so they can go to war. Bad news resonates more than good news.

Some people here say you are deluded, and you say you're enlightened. How do we know which one it is? And how can YOU be certain?

Aww 🥰 But it's probably all just your positive energy that attracts the good reactions.

I think the charm is in the endgame content but idk about current times. Wish I could play wow on the airplane, it's the only legit way I can think of to kill 12 hours on a flight to Bangkok.

I agree that LLMs are not, by any means, intelligent. They simulate intelligence very well. If you link up a billion calculators, have you created an intelligent consciousness? I say no. My real problem in using them daily for work is that I cannot help but anthropomorphize the technology, that's just how they're built. I work alone all day and before you know it I'm treating Claude like a mentor or business partner. And it's frustrating as fuck to work with these things. You need to step back, use your own mind first, then go back to using it properly, and then get suckered back into the same pattern. Claude is a nightmare if you don't prompt properly and just expect it to be "intelligent" and come with solutions. There is no real intelligence there. All the intelligence comes from me. You can't say "Hey Claude, create a successful business for me". You can start there, work hard for months and months, and then realize you really did it on your own. It's just a modern technology. It's impressive! But there's upsides and downsides to it.

None of that is good advertising, yet it still wanna do the program. Why do I have a desire for Truth when it's so horrible aka death? I came preprogrammed with some desire for it, cause deep down I know what I am, and some part of me is looking to reconnect?

He will get it right on the second prompt though. Paints a whole fence in 2 prompts is still impressive to me 😝 And why does it say IA? Lol

Yes this sums up my day-to-day.

Wait, what? Aren't the sub agents that it spawns already those? I thought the sub agents is the reason it eats so many tokens. I've just been asking fable to write plans into .MD files and sending those to Opus 4.8 /w ultracode myself.

It works fine for me, but that's an app that helps me run my business. Creating that for users would require an actual programmer.
