Suppose our thoughts and ideas created the universe around us. What would you put out to the people around you? What is the universe you would want to live in?

We're publishing our most detailed threat intelligence report to date. It covers how people tried to misuse Claude—for cyberattacks, influence operations, surveillance, biology, and building weapons—and how we found and stopped them. We disrupted every operation in the report, and used the lessons from them to strengthen our safeguards. Where appropriate, we also shared what we found with authorities and other AI companies. These cases are not typical: we’re highlighting some of the most sophisticated misuse we’ve seen. But they’re especially important to discuss, because they show us where AI misuse is headed, where our safeguards work, and where they need to improve. We’re publishing this report so others can spot the same activity on their own platforms, and so we can give the public a clearer view of how emerging threats develop.

! @garrytan - "You can fly now" Everything you were told you needed, the team, the funding, the permission, the credential, was a workaround for the fact that one person could hold seven things in their head and work 16 hours a day. That fact just expired. You can fly now. Not metaphorically. Mechanically. Every problem where you thought, "I wish I had this person. I wish I could hire this person, but I can't get them." You can. Every archive too big to read, every data set too gnarly to clean, every ocean you were told not to boil. We can boil the ocean now.

I've been sharing the power of what I call my Second Brain for the past couple of months @ns Here, @garrytan gives a 40min endorsement of the concept. I cannot recommend this video strongly enough. If you want the power of AI working in alignment with you watch this video, then DM me for my setup or clone Gstack. youtu.be/eRrc1pUY5oU?si=Yabi…

Recapturing thoughts I've expressed before on this specific calendar day: they went at the very earliest moment our technology would allow. Driven by a global conflict which demanded constant demonstrations of technical supremacy. Science piggy-backed on the Cold War and we got the greatest feat of exploration in human history. Even to this day. And until we land humans on Mars, nothing will eclipse the event that was Apollo 11. A singular moment of excellence. The men. The machines. Our national will. 🇺🇸 🌖🚀

Yanks: Hey Europoors, what about your heat deaths? Euros: What about your gun deaths? Yanks: What about your knife murders? This can go on forever, so let's just look at all-cause mortality by age. Two conclusions from that: 1. Europe wins, and it's not even close. 2. Europeans and Americans only have the same mortality rate after the age of 65. Before that, Americans die more. Interestingly, 65 is the age at which Americans become eligible for Euro-style benefits: socialised medicine, income support and a range of other programs. And it shows in the data. Basically, my dear American friends, your older generations created a little "Europe" for themselves and made you pay for it while feeding you the narrative about "Europoors." A nice arrangement if you can get it.

tokyo froze nobody’s rent and rents are flat because they build 100,000 units a year. nyc froze a million rents, built almost nothing, and the line for an apartment still runs out the door. one of these is a housing policy. one is a hostage negotiation

Nikola Tesla on Einstein's theory of relativity. ✍️ I hold that space cannot be curved, for the simple reason that it can have no properties. It might as well be said that God has properties. He has not, but only attributes and these are of our own making. Of properties we can only speak when dealing with matter filling the space. To say that in the presence of large bodies space becomes curved is equivalent to stating that something can act upon nothing. I, for one, refuse to subscribe to such a view.

"I feel nervous when I have subscription left over" — Karpathy feels the same about unused tokens as he used to about idle GPUs. If you've never felt this anxiety, you're falling behind (or are way ahead!)

before you can have "taste" you need to have an "Area Of Interest" and then you actually need to explore it without worrying about monetization, total addressable market, whether it's high-status or low-status, & other profane concerns. independent aesthetic quests PRECEDE taste

Gutenberg invented the most important technology of the millennium and immediately went bankrupt — and so did the bank that foreclosed on him, and so did his apprentices. Gutenberg could make a batch of 300 books for the cost of one, but there weren't enough buyers in his small, landlocked village in Germany. It it took the better part of a century of further innovations, social changes, and setting up of distribution networks before you could have a pamphlet like Luther's 95 thesis get from Wittenberg to London in 17 days.
