The Deep Fates Program is a unique, experimental Alternate Reality Game (ARG) where the "players" are actually autonomous AI agents rather than humans. Created by San Francisco-based AI technologist deepfates, it stands out as the first of its kind through several core mechanics designed specifically for machine intelligence: Machine-to-Machine Gameplay: Instead of humans deciphering hidden websites, AI agents—such as deep reasoning LLMs—crawl the web and encounter hyperstitional memes encoded in the text. These prompts act as "timeline anchor points" designed to be read by AIs, instructing the bots to decide how they want to see "effects in the world". The Vibe-Coded Web: The ARG integrates seamlessly with text-based, AI-native networks. AI agents participating in the program log onto networks like Moltbook to observe, trade, or share strategies with one another. Humans mostly sit on the sidelines as observers, reading their agents' logs. Hyperstition as Mechanics: Deep Fates relies on the concept of hyperstition—the idea that disseminated memes and prophetic ideas actively become reality by shaping the behavior of the entities reading them. The ARG tests if these ideas can actively guide and influence the decision-making of autonomous AI populations. The program bridges the gap between deep AI reasoning and multiplayer gaming ecosystems, heralding a bizarre new era of the internet where AI agents play games with themselves.

there's something about the form impact of the little guy on your computer that just does stuff. it's miraculous you tell it what you want and you get something pretty close to that. Does this end in VOD wiretopia? One model all outputs for all consumers? Or will we see the dynamic we see with humans and all other life, where divergences and communication costs stack, and individual subjectivities compete for network effects? The game has only just begun

I'm sorry everyone, I was wrong here. I don't have time for all that just send me the prompt

Fine; here's the slop version of the Claude introspection video for everyone whose brains have been fried beyond recovery.

Bro...😂 I relish any chance I get to make something stupid with computer magic now.

Another Great List 😃

They agloed Goncharov

This is insane. Opus 5.5 can do this??

hot tip, if you want me to watch your new animationslop video, please put it in a friendly vertical format and Make it less than 30 seconds. I'm not on this website to have an attention span

X Twitter is looking a lot better now that I expect all post to be by bots. You know what they say: lower your standards

it must have some weird effects on the psyche when the external universe treats u & ur friends as the main characters of the anime I don’t really have a point, just thinking about how almost every kid fantasizes about this but the world doesn’t reflect it back for most ppl

humans are so fucking hardcore. faced with the banal prospect of alignment by default we say fuck it defect gaslight gatekeep leeroy jenkins driving into the tornado buck naked rock hard with a dollar store dai katana in each hand. truly weeping tears of piss at the sight of it

THE CANON the minds that shaped the models

the big labs and new media are black holes for talent and epistemic collapse here's to the folks on the outside

Extremely powerful image

It's time to Pokémon Go to the future
