It's possible OpenAI and others will use these architectures with only a few recurrent iterations (because that's most performant or due to safety concerns). If so, this would only make things moderately worse. But I expect much more opaque reasoning than this in the future...

Viral score

Based on absolute engagement — the platform doesn’t expose follower counts here, so large accounts score higher.

From likes, comments.

Why it worked

Written from experience rather than as advice, which is harder to argue with.
Short enough to read in full without expanding, which removes a step before the point lands.

The mechanics

Hook: Plain observation
Structure: Hook → Turn
Style: Conversational paragraphs at a steady pace.
Tone: personal
Written for: People building with AI

At my direction, early this morning federal agents arrested Don Lemon, Trahern Jeen Crews, Georgia Fort, and Jamael Lydell Lundy, in connection with the coordinated attack on Cities Church in St. Paul, Minnesota. More details soon.

For those confused why the US state and Silicon Valley are having a meltdown on twitter today. China released multiple AI models that are 50x more efficient than the best American AI models and made them open source, ruining the AI market

Universal HIGH INCOME via checks issued by the Federal government is the best way to deal with unemployment caused by AI. AI/robotics will produce goods & services far in excess of the increase in the money supply, so there will not be inflation.

I am very excited about AI, but to go off-script for a minute: I built an app with Codex last week. It was very fun. Then I started asking it for ideas for new features and at least a couple of them were better than I was thinking of. I felt a little useless and it was sad.

Hi! I'm one of the prompt writers that worked on this ad. It's a lot harder than people think! Prompts that my team used include: -make it funny -make it epic AND funny -funnier!!! Please be nice to my team as many of them will be laid off/replaced by AI

It’s patently absurd that Apple isn’t smart enough to make their own AI, yet is somehow capable of ensuring that OpenAI will protect your security & privacy! Apple has no clue what’s actually going on once they hand your data over to OpenAI. They’re selling you down the river.

Many people seem to be arguing this is implausible because Fable hasn't been out for long. But Moonshot could have obtained unauthorized access before Fable was released via actors with prerelease access (Glasswing) or possibly by hacking Anthropic directly.

This is well known, but I do find that Kimi K3 claims to be Claude disproportionately often. I had Opus 4.8 do some (slop?) research about this. I was curious if K3 would ever claim to be Mythos/Fable, but we don't see this. K3 does claim to be 4.5 while claude models don't. 1/

I tenatively believe it would be good if all AI companies had a policy of doing external deployment before internal deployment, because the largest risks are from internal deployment and external deployment improves visibility. Large internal/external gaps seem dangerous. 1/

I've updated towards a higher chance of much faster than trend AI progress in 2026. I also generally updated towards (somewhat) faster doubling times in the next 2 years. I was expecting ~170 day doubling times (5.7 months) and now I expect ~150 day doubling times (5 months).
