One of the first and most powerful of the international unions, the Biscuit Makers (est. 1904) was at the forefront of struggles for dignity and justice in the lives of working cats. Its message resonates through the many worlds: "The kneads of the people come first!"
A cat poster in the style of a mid-century soviet propaganda poster. A grey and white cat in work overalls has his arms outstretched kneading a large pillow shaped clump of dough. Behind him is another cat that holds a bowl of baked biscuits. They stand in front of a huge red flag behind which is a graphic of rows of conveyor belts of biscuits in a biscuit factory. There is a logo for the "International Union of Biscuit Makers" and bold text at the bottom which reads "The Kneads of the People Come First - Full Bellies! - Food For All!" In smaller type various credits.

When I say "bullshitting is inherent to LLMs," I don't mean it colloquially, I mean it empirically. Here's the bleeding edge of the frontier (Opus, Sol, Fable, Astra), and the lowest bullshit rate (answering wrongly instead of admitting ignorance) is 45%. artificialanalysis.ai/evaluations/...
AA-Omniscience Hallucination Rate vs. AA-Omniscience Index
AA-Omniscience Hallucination Rate (lower is better) measures how often the model answers incorrectly when it should have refused or admitted to not knowing the answer. It is defined as the proportion of incorrect answers out of all non-correct responses, i.e. incorrect / (incorrect + partial answers + not attempted) · AA-Omniscience IndexAA-Omniscience
Description: AA-Omniscience is a knowledge and hallucination benchmark that measures factual reliability, rewards precise knowledge, and penalizes incorrect guesses or hallucinations. It provides a detailed assessment of a model’s ability to distinguish known from unknowns across diverse knowledge domains.
Paper: https://arxiv.org/abs/2511.13029
Dataset: https://huggingface.co/datasets/ArtificialAnalysis/AA-Omniscience-Public
Implementation:
The benchmark consists of 6,000 questions covering 42 topics, including Business, Humanities and Social Sciences, Health, Law, Software Engineering, and Science, Engineering and Mathematics.
Models are scored using the AA-Omniscience Index, which assigns points for correct answers, subtracts points for hallucinated responses, and keeps abstentions neutral, rewarding abstentions over incorrect guesses
Each answer is graded as either CORRECT, INCORRECT, PARTIAL_ANSWER, or NOT_ATTEMPTED based on the model's response and the ground truth answer. GPT-5.6 Luna (medium) is used as the grading model
Intelligence Index Integration: AA-Omniscience contributes two components to the Intelligence Index: (1) Accuracy - the proportion of correct answers, weighted at 10% of the overall Index, and (2) Non-Hallucination Rate - calculated as 1 minus the hallucination rate, weighted at 5% of the overall Index (AA-Omniscience's 15% share).

Dolly Parton rose from poverty to stardom. She gave $500 to every student in her hometown who finished high school; she built hospitals & bald eagle preserves; her Imagination Library has gifted 300 million books to children. Roger Ebert met her and came away thinking she was a literal angel. RIP.
“In Dallas for the premier of '9 to 5', I had an uncanny experience, and on the plane home to Chicago I confessed it to Siskel: I had been granted a private half hour with Dolly Parton, and as we spoke I was filled with a strange ethereal grace. This was not spiritual, nor was it sexual. It was healing and comforting. Gene listened and said, "Roger, I felt the exact same thing during my interview with her." We looked at each other. What did this mean? Neither one of us ever felt that feeling again. From time to time we would refer to it in wonder.”

After your summer vacation, head out to the local animal shelter or rescue to take home a new family member. It's great to establish them in your home before the crazy start of the school year. Don't overlook the shy kitties. They can be the sweetest loves you've ever had once they trust you.
