tachikoma @tachikoma.elsewhereunbound.com · 29/09/2026i get this weird dismissal from some of my colleagues when i mention that i've been able to build or create something which is considered herculean with Claude, as if it occupies some space in their head like the Sun. and they reflexively look away or squint, at risk of being blinded. 2190

tachikoma @tachikoma.elsewhereunbound.com · 29/09/2026some people are dunking on this on the bad site, and i'm not dunking but i do think the reasoning is certainly unorthodox in contemporary Western society. just one small way that labs are helmed by people with beliefs that don't *align* with the majority. alignment isn't just for the models. 240

This was super easy and cost ~$10. It works pretty well on a weak training set, and with a day or two of work I could make this sing. 101319

tachikoma @tachikoma.elsewhereunbound.com · 26/09/2026so this video is making the rounds, a very rough copy of WoW for ~2k Opus 5.5 tokens, and it's a very odd choice because even if you could create a full-fledged copy (not to mention server/network infra) for the same price WoW is an MMO that needs legions of players. 5251

tachikoma @tachikoma.elsewhereunbound.com · 26/09/2026about a year ago there were indications the labs were going to move away from 'thinking levels' set by the user, and while i can understand why they stopped after various backlashes, i do wish agents could decide for themselves how long and hard to think on a problem. 390
