so a few months ago I had codex synthesize the most terrifying alarm, that sounded like a combination of sirens, a fire alarm drill, and ticking bombs. I’d set up a script that wouldn’t let me turn off the alarm until I pressed certain keys and waited for a few minutes before pressing other keys. when it woke me up in the morning I just shut the lid and went back to sleep again. later during the day, I opened the laptop again in front of a friend and scared the living shit out of her. the most anxiety inducing part of this alarm was that it felt like everyone in a 5km radius could hear it.

the electron app is really sluggish and is missing a bunch of features I want. I've been using my own (native) macOS app instead. + buttery smooth scrolling (pure AppKit) + rich formatting for markdown, diffs, code, etc. + supports tabs (!) and more.
I get rainbow spinner like every 10 minutes using the codex desktop app pls fix

don't update your cable yet! there's a tethered jailbreak just around the corner
This went under the radar, but earlier this week, Apple released USB-C to MagSafe 3 Cable (2m) Firmware 3.2.0 The last firmware update for this cable was over 3 years ago

Flo Rida spoke of this
We release Whistle: speech to text in a 16.9MB file, running on the CPU in the same engine as Needle. It mostly beats Whisper base with 9x less file size and 6x speed. Whistle supports English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Dutch and Polish. cactuscompute.com/blog/whist…

it’s over
Sakana AI welcomes Jürgen Schmidhuber as Chief Scientific Advisor. sakana.ai/schmidhuber/ Sakana AI is incredibly proud to announce that Jürgen Schmidhuber, universally recognized as the father of modern AI, is officially joining Sakana AI as Chief Scientific Advisor. For nearly four decades, Jürgen has explored how machines can learn to learn. His foundational work in the 1990s drove core advancements in deep learning and established early frameworks for world models. Crucially, his pioneering innovations in meta-learning opened the very path toward recursive self-improvement. These ideas have already shaped our own research, from the Darwin Gödel Machine to The AI Scientist. Now Jürgen will help guide our newly formed RSI Lab, whose objective is to trigger a compounding cycle of scientific discovery aimed at improving machine intelligence. We are assembling a critical mass of world-class experts in Tokyo to make this a reality. Welcome, @SchmidhuberAI !

at some point you have to ask yourself if the actual ad is the behind-the-scenes video, because this seems to buy a lot of goodwill.
Apple has shared a new video, once again proving its care for handcrafted and human art instead of AI-video slop. How Apple made the Apple Games campaign video:

more people should train models that are fun to talk to (maybe people already do and I just haven’t seen them)
computer-10 is a character model trained from llama 3.1 70b base with no assistant data. it has a distinct and unusual personality, expresses opinions freely, and is not designed to be servile to users
