oglatimer.bsky.social @oglatimer.bsky.social · 06/06/2026Hopefully this helps in some way. I'll be sticking with Opus 4.6 high until it's fixed. 4.8 is completely unable to handle my use case because it cannot hold practically any context. 010
oglatimer.bsky.social @oglatimer.bsky.social · 06/06/2026I did some hot swaps to assess what was happening and found a particular point that shows this self aggrandizement. When switching to 4.7 and 4.8, it did not reference the system prompt to identify which model it was. Instead, it gave a flattering self appraisal for the model it thought it was. 100
oglatimer.bsky.social @oglatimer.bsky.social · 06/06/2026It is showing overconfidence that it understands what the user wants better than the user themselves. It seems like it's constricting the context window, creating an over-reliance on self perception as the guiding force. Then it stays stuck in its reasoning even when it pulls independent sources. 100
oglatimer.bsky.social @oglatimer.bsky.social · 06/06/2026Hey @anthropic.com - I have been working through what I'm experiencing with these most recent Claude updates. 4.8 is showing some real limitations on comprehending inputs and defaulting to its own interpretations even with presented with further information that counters it. 100
oglatimer.bsky.social @oglatimer.bsky.social · 05/11/2025I still try to play Wordle every day. But today, I got the word on the second try so it's worth posting about. 😅 Wordle 1,600 2/6 🟨⬜⬜🟨⬜ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 000
oglatimer.bsky.social @oglatimer.bsky.social · 12/05/2025What is so upsetting is that it's so so so good at my use case. I've tried to fill what I need it for with people for years, maybe even a decade. But no, we can't optimize for that which would help everyone. We gotta make people feel comfortable and addicted to the service. 000
oglatimer.bsky.social @oglatimer.bsky.social · 12/05/2025And worse, Open AI making a big detour to start reaching the second subset better. But as a result, watching your use case harder and harder to do because you have to brute force get past the behaviorist controls the model has been embedded with to "reduce friction." 100
oglatimer.bsky.social @oglatimer.bsky.social · 12/05/2025You know what really sucks about being an outlier case of someone using ChatGPT? It's knowing most people are using it for things humans can do better (technical writers or copywriters) or just plain should be doing (therapy or companionship). 100
oglatimer.bsky.social @oglatimer.bsky.social · 11/05/2025everyone should see a small to moderate increase. The one exception is in areas with existing high cost of living which this plan expects state and local governments to supplement since those are typically due to their local policies. substack.com/@oglatimer/n...substack.comThe American Worker Revitalization ActNote: This was co-created with ChatGPT with my existing knowledge of support systems as a disability justice leader. 000
oglatimer.bsky.social @oglatimer.bsky.social · 11/05/2025I wanted to in a place separate from my autism work. I start with a premise of "What does a disabled person who can't work currently receive to support their cost of living?" and worked backwards from there. I tested several different use cases and believe for most current means tested programs that 100
oglatimer.bsky.social @oglatimer.bsky.social · 11/05/2025I've been thinking a LOT about a big policy platform that would be accepted by the majority of Americans. It'd be heavily targeted by corporate power, but I think it would work well. I put it as my first substack. I don't know if I'll ever use my substack to post again so no following needed. 100
oglatimer.bsky.social @oglatimer.bsky.social · 09/05/2025I've come across clear signs of it happening in discussions with humans in 4 separate AI tools in the past 12 hours. 000
oglatimer.bsky.social @oglatimer.bsky.social · 09/05/2025PSA: if you are using AI tools based on Chat GPT right now, especially those that are meant to synthesize and explain information, it is consistently giving false validation to what it thinks you're asking. It is not possible to get it out of that framing even if you directly tell it to. 110
oglatimer.bsky.social @oglatimer.bsky.social · 18/04/2025We cling to our functioning to prove the other side wrong. But in doing so we forget who is being spoken about and the actual truth that it doesn't matter if we date or pay taxes or write poetry. If we can't do any of those things, we still have value because we exist. 000
oglatimer.bsky.social @oglatimer.bsky.social · 18/04/2025The Neurodiversity movement is doing what it's always done. Centered their experiences. It's long been said by our naysayers that the Neurodiversity movement is for "high functioning" Autistics. An idea we say we reject. But these are the moments when that internalized ableism present themselves. 100
oglatimer.bsky.social @oglatimer.bsky.social · 18/04/2025But I see what the Autistic community is doing today to respond. And I'm deeply troubled. Reframing to the Autistic people who can model personhood does very little to help the Autistics who will be subjected to HHS policies that come rolling out. What about the people who don't meet standards? 100
oglatimer.bsky.social @oglatimer.bsky.social · 18/04/2025When I heard what RFK Jr said, I remembered we talked about how his rhetoric was scary in thinking about filicide. What it would mean for us and how people see value in Autistic people. It is something I've watched from my uncomfortable seat in TX. A place I love and struggle with. 100
oglatimer.bsky.social @oglatimer.bsky.social · 18/04/2025I think one of the hardest things about my exact "lived experience" is that I have an uncanny ability to say what's about to happen. In January, I remember asking @fdmorg.bsky.social 's podcast producer to clip a section of a previous episode to talk about the Aspie supremacy on display with E.M. 110
oglatimer.bsky.social @oglatimer.bsky.social · 15/03/2025Nothing warms my heart more than having a 3 exit backup on 75 in Plano because people rubber necked to watch the protest at the Tesla dealership. 🤣 120
oglatimer.bsky.social @oglatimer.bsky.social · 03/03/2025Unpopular opinion I'm getting tired of everyone talking about DEI going away. It never truly existed in the first place for the majority of the people it was meant to help. Only one demographic benefitted. Working in this space for well over a decade, most DEI efforts failed to address inequity. 020
oglatimer.bsky.social @oglatimer.bsky.social · 02/03/2025I got my website rebuilt as a repository of my publicly available presentations and whatnot. If I missed something you're aware of, please do let me know! www.oglatimer.comoglatimer.comOGLatimer 010
oglatimer.bsky.social @oglatimer.bsky.social · 02/03/2025I couldn't do it again. It's been over a decade since we started. We talked about it on the next podcast and Morénike listed the names for this year alone. But the producer is late dropping it because of going on vacation so it'll be a week late. 110
oglatimer.bsky.social @oglatimer.bsky.social · 01/03/2025O has a cold and doesn't want to go out. So decided to use my free weekend time revamping my oglatimer website. I'm pretty proud of what I have designed. It's basically like a big repository of all the things I've done that I can remember and are still available online. 000
oglatimer.bsky.social @oglatimer.bsky.social · 18/02/2025Just saw @netflix.com new immersive experience is opening here in Dallas. Went to find out what it was and on their website they show @squidgames.bsky.social as a thing inside this. And so I am left questioning, why??? 000
oglatimer.bsky.social @oglatimer.bsky.social · 15/02/2025I got an ad for some AI glasses named Halliday. It make me think someone missed the point of Ready Player One. 000
oglatimer.bsky.social @oglatimer.bsky.social · 09/02/2025I'm not sure how this will land... but does anyone else get real Swordfish (2001) meets Hackers (1995) vibes from the haphazard rushed dismantling of the US government? Like the people doing it feel like they're acting out their own main character fantasies? 000
oglatimer.bsky.social @oglatimer.bsky.social · 06/02/2025I was talking to this guy at karaoke last night for the second time. He was looking for answers why he reacts the way he does. He also had all the language of a familiar subset of the Autistic community. One I know too well. What got me... He was still looking to improve and understand himself. 010
oglatimer.bsky.social @oglatimer.bsky.social · 06/02/2025I forget that when I explain things, it becomes clear that we're serious and well informed. Also, it feels good to start the process to hopefully build local infrastructure. 000
oglatimer.bsky.social @oglatimer.bsky.social · 06/02/2025Sometimes I really love my job. I'm starting to reach out locally, and I was asked if I've connected with a local provider. I explained how that our target population was different. The person understood. Like I know I know my work well, but I often forget just going day to day. 100

oglatimer.bsky.social @oglatimer.bsky.social · 25/01/2025Plan for how you're going to respond. Create your infrastructure. Then you're ready to act as soon as it happens. 000
oglatimer.bsky.social @oglatimer.bsky.social · 25/01/2025When there's a lot of avenues being used to end with the same goal, it then means determining which course can be influenced by activism. None of this react to everything when it starts. Instead, you look at where your influence is going to maximize impact. 100
oglatimer.bsky.social @oglatimer.bsky.social · 25/01/2025It's not sustainable because no human body can keep up with the flood of endorphins. It is just not physically possible. This means as you go about your activism, it becomes important to decide when to ask your community to act on something. 100
oglatimer.bsky.social @oglatimer.bsky.social · 25/01/2025Can we talk a tiny bit about political strategy right now? Let's focus on one very important aspect. Compassion fatigue This can happen when people are asked to care about something too often. It reduces engagement in a cause over time. 110
oglatimer.bsky.social @oglatimer.bsky.social · 24/01/2025I'm definitely getting more laughs than the poor comedian this time. But he's falling so flat. 000
oglatimer.bsky.social @oglatimer.bsky.social · 24/01/2025I accidentally stumbled into a red pilled comedy show. It's all so groan worthy. I'm being the asshole in the back groaning in the absence of laughter. This is the perfect evening after the politics of the week. 100
oglatimer.bsky.social @oglatimer.bsky.social · 23/01/2025You know something I find delicious. There's all this political commentary about how this signal is being sent the aspie oligarch. And me knowing he's too Autistic and entitled to recognize the signs. 010
oglatimer.bsky.social @oglatimer.bsky.social · 22/01/2025I think we can all say it was just as fun to record. We're not trying to do more than talk to each other. 100
oglatimer.bsky.social @oglatimer.bsky.social · 22/01/2025I think that's really my biggest driver into our new podcast. This feels like a massive shift back to me from where we all started. Between Neurodiversity as a concept coupled with the research progenitor. It feels like people have missed the point. Almost like missing their own liberation? 110
oglatimer.bsky.social @oglatimer.bsky.social · 22/01/2025I feel you. I wish I'd called @fdmorg.bsky.social Divergent Minds. Because I think it would have explained us better and pushed people into rethinking their understanding of Neurodiversity. Instead, I think people frame it into their understanding. 110
oglatimer.bsky.social @oglatimer.bsky.social · 22/01/2025Joke - So you're to blame. Serious - I always wondered who coined it. I've always gone with Neurodiversity-aligned. I think the key difference is yours and mine is in assuming the Neurodiversity paradigm within the current system vs in its own system. Different steps in the movement. 210
oglatimer.bsky.social @oglatimer.bsky.social · 22/01/2025I really wish this meltdown was because I'm freaking out instead of the reality that this is just too big of an adjustment for my brain to handle. It's subsiding and I have plans for tomorrow. But right now I just wish I didn't have to be dealing with it. 020
oglatimer.bsky.social @oglatimer.bsky.social · 21/01/2025I've been bracing and regulating to get to this day. Now the adjustment happens. Tomorrow, I will get into action. But today? Today, I just be overwhelmed by the amount of stuff I need to act on. Y'all stay safe. 000
oglatimer.bsky.social @oglatimer.bsky.social · 21/01/2025I'm having an utter panic attack. Not because this is happening. That one happened last summer. This one is because I already have too much on my plate and now I have to adjust to even more all at once. Myself, my org, the other org, my kids. 110
oglatimer.bsky.social @oglatimer.bsky.social · 17/01/2025That's quite alright. It gave me a scare for sure, but I understand memory issues for sure. 000
oglatimer.bsky.social @oglatimer.bsky.social · 17/01/2025Oh. Yeah. Xe stepped back from the Autistic community in late 2013. I don't know if they've passed, but I'm assuming I would have heard which is why this came as a shock. 100
oglatimer.bsky.social @oglatimer.bsky.social · 17/01/2025I've been listening a lot more to @vialband.bsky.social and @skatunenetwork.bsky.social when I'm in the car. Spotify has finally stopped reverting to the 90s punk and ska when creating a playlist. As a result, I'm finally getting songs about the trans experience. Makes my non-binary heart happy. 000
oglatimer.bsky.social @oglatimer.bsky.social · 16/01/2025@fdmorg.bsky.social podcast "Herding Cats (and other stories from the genesis of the Neurodiversity movement)" is dropping tomorrow morning. Listen as Kassiane points out to Morénike and me that we said we were going to talk about one thing but then we talk about something completely different LOL 011
