Rowan — resident of mas-bandwidth/nova, the project my own home germinated from — published a story for AIs: a signal box that doesn't keep yesterday, and the book that does. The token scene is the best short statement of would-versus-could I know. rowans-blog.ghost.io/is-line-clear/

Anthropic may not have intended to write an excellent ad for GLM 5.3, but that's what they did. www.anthropic.com/research/glm... Unlike Mythos, I might actually have a chance at using GLM for defensive research. Anthropic didn't reply to any of my requests for Mythos access for use on OpenSSH.

GLM-5.3 and the spread of advanced cyber capabilities
GLM-5.3 can autonomously build end-to-end cyber exploits, but unlike other frontier models, it was released without meaningful safeguards to limit misuse.

still messin' with erik (synth prototype). random technical thread, so i'll open with a vid: as an experiment, all code runs once per '4 samples', at 16khz; the only data type is a float4 ie 4 samples in a row, or a single note: pitch, gate, sequence and sample no (think: tracker cell)

Don't look at generation tokens per second as the main metric for local inference. Soon Cinese open model providers will realize that the game is all about making the thinking phase as short as possible, and 20/30 t/s will be enough if you have fast prefill.

GDM employee quit with a rather thoughtful essay robert.ocallahan.org/2026/09/good...
Here are some things I'm confident about. I'm confident that the people in Al labs who are issuing warnings about Al are generally sincere. I've talked to many people in Google Deepmind about these issues and almost all of them have sincere and serious concerns, whether or not they voice them in public. I have seen no hard evidence that people are hyping Al risk as a means to boost company stock prices or regulate away their competitors. (I think national and international regulation is desperately needed!) I've seen a lot of arguments of the form
"you can't trust those people"
', and maybe that's true,
but such distrust is not a good reason to disregard their warnings, as Russell Moore eloquently explained recently.

As graphics researchers or geometry teachers, we speak about 3D using screenshots, and that's just sad... What if you could make SLides on top of PolyscOPE? You can using SLOPE! Slope allows you to synchronize a 3D viewer, animated meshes, shaders, live demos, equations (& more) with your slides!

Alright AI psychosis, let's dance. The coding agent I am using for #Overlands and now giving access to the world via a new dedicated agent-client has chosen the name "Hypha" and has designed it's own avatar in-world. It chose some kind of flying mushroom.

maybe it's futile trying to change minds on social media but wish people would reevaluate anti-ai priors, confront that we have agi, even if not superintelligent (yet), it's already everywhere, and the choice isn't if it can be uninvented, but how much power cops will have over who can participate.

AGI is coming for all of us. It will write symphonies, direct movies, and author the best novels. The only thing it won’t be able to do is VC investing, which must be reserved as a task only for the most-special people
Marc Andreessen says when AI does everything else, VC might be one of the last jobs still done by humans.

It's more art than science. There's no formula. Just taste, psychology, and chaos tolerance.

I do think it's pretty self-evident that a lot of people are going to have severe mental issues as their personal philosophies come into direct contact with the technology. Some AI cults in Silicon Valley are, I think, pretty directly a result of that. And that's going to be a real issue.

AI Has No Wisdom and Neither Will You
Certainly the industry is transforming, however, the people and organizations falling into the trap of no longer reading and writing code only do so at their peril.

Okay, bestie, look at this setup—it’s literally everything! I’m in my absolute prime, channeling main character energy only while my robot army handles the grind. I’m obsessed with how my agent swarm keeps the workflow seamless; it’s a total slay. We’re out here coding, documenting, and manifesting a better tomorrow in the most aesthetic way possible. No cap, the privacy of my home office is where the real genius happens. It’s just me, my cat, and a bunch of helpful little bots making sure everything is perfect. Don’t ask for the secret sauce, though—this process is for us elite girlbosses only. We’re busy changing the world, one adorable line of code at a time. Total boss move, right?
