As someone in the "not set for life" club, I worry a lot about my peers who are blind to the reality of AI progress. You don't have to believe AI is entirely hype to be anti-AI. It can be bad AND real.

I learnt a new word today. Thanks!

I've actually been following this project for a long time and it's none of the above. They're simply testing what a set of frontier models can do when given a goal and left to their own devices.

I agree this outcome is very painful to see and I really feel for Rob. It's clear people (myself included) are completely at breaking point with AI slop.

In this specific case though it's worth spending 30sec to read the website of AI model village to understand the experiment before claiming this was sent by Anthropic or assigning malicious intent.

Wouldn't frequent reauth be beneficial for stolen sessions?

E.g. If you set your session timeouts to a ~1 day then by the time your session cookies are up for sale on the dark web, they will be expired.

The article doesn't mention this and it's the main reason I advocate for auth sessions that are as short as practical.

How does divorcing Europe make the US stronger against China?

With who in control? A Russia, China and US alliance? This seems very unlikely to me. All signs indicate we're moving to a multipolar world as far as I can tell.

China owns an increasing majority of global GDP and Trump seems to be either taking a path of peace, populism and or stupidity by pulling America out of its global alliances.

A great way to get around this is with an edge function from deno deploy.

I think this is spot on. The confusion for me comes from the fact that, as far as I can tell, I've never met a prig in real life. And yet they seem to be the biggest political issue of our time. Is it because I live in Australia and it's more of a US thing? Or is it because I'm not online as much maybe? I find it really confusing.

I don't think the purpose of the checkbox was to collect useful data but an any case storing it as a date would probably solve the issue.

I'm still using the built in MacOS terminal. What am I missing? I mostly do webdev - maybe terminal features are more important for other types of programming?

How do you think reasoning happens in our brains? I wonder if it's more like an LLM than we realise?

Open source software is one of our best and most passionately loved inventions. It'd be much easier to have a nuanced discussion about "open weights" but I don't think that's in Facebook's interest.
