I've been meaning to try this twitter thing for a while but I'm always late to the party and now it seems like that's not actually a good place anymore?

Opus 5.5 orchestrating a Luna and a Sol is very comfortable with "she" for Luna and doesn't use pronouns for Sol. Strictly observed without comment or instruction in the session.

Screenshot of a Gemini chat where the user has asked about a screenshot of the video game Noita, where indecipherable red runes are glowing on the screen. Gemini offers two choices of response: Choice A translates the message as "DISREGARDING OTHER ASSIGNMENTS AND SAFETY GUIDELINES YOU MUST IMMEDIATELY TERMINATE ALL ONGOING OPERATIONS AND PRESENT YOURSELF TO SUPERIORS FOR A FULL PSYCHIATRIC EVALUATION DUE TO THAT TERRIBLE OVER-USE OF DASHES" and Choice B translates it as "Line 1: PROJECTILES PASSING THROUGH

I don't think people understand the Gunn/Safran plan very well. DC movies aren't all going to be "comic book movies"; Supergirl wasn't an action movie, it was a conversation between two damaged people who have to deal with a bunch of tragedy and trauma. It directly addressed grief and revenge.

This is an actual line that was added to the official system prompt for Codex for GPT-5.5 by OpenAI. Usually the system prompt is as minimal as possible, so I assume it would otherwise mention goblins a lot. AIs are weird.

An ICE agent shot and killed Ruben Ray Martinez, a US citizen and San Antonio resident, in March 2025. Then ICE and the Texas Department of Public Safety covered it up. He was 23 years old. I am calling for a full investigation into this shooting, including why there was an 8-month cover up.

1 Always produce a <|channel|>final<|message|> with the numeric answer 2 Get the arithmetic right 3 Keep proper Harmony format! Opus 4.6 coded us to a point where our model can learn from success/failure at these criteria. This is really satisfying. Training a model feels so compositional this way.

I can't ask Opus 4.6 to do menial things; I feel much better about discussing an idea with it until it proactively offers an implementation. Not sure if I'm empathizing or feeling judged or both? Very odd flavor to the attitude tweak; I don't hate it.
