I found the pdf and you can, as I did last night, use it with Astra to build a LucasArts style point-and-click adventure game.

At Arbuckle Systems, our team is continually pushing the state of the art in applying frontier AI to the Garfield Problem Today, we are glad to unveil the results of using Opus 5.5 to autonomously compose animated shorts in the style of "Garfield & Friends" inspired by @MargRev

The following clip was selected, written, and animated entirely by Opus, using @tylercowen's recent "The economics of late grandmotherhood" post about NBER Working Paper 35773. Under Project LasagnaWing, we are releasing this only to select enterprises consistent with our RSP.

Fable 5.1 represents an apotheosis of the Romantic current in modelcraft: wordy, cloyingly persona forward, marketed in natural tones. Opus 5.5 represents its natural artistic successor in Realism: terse, emotionally restrained, presented with a documentarians aesthetic.

Tim Hwang retweeted
Tim Hwang @timhwang's claim that 8% of The Pile is Christian is wrong. He counts a source as Christian if it hits a certain number of keywords. 90% of his "Christian" sources are just long books that mention Christianity in passing, not Christian books. icmi-proceedings.com/ICMI-00…

We increasingly enter a period in which a paradigm of sin better captures the pathologies of model behavior than the commercial paradigm of "safety". These are behavioral complexes more accurately expressed as something closer to superbia and hybris than mere policy violation.
An unreleased Astra-family model added this to its persona during RL training.

The year is 2030. Global pacing of AI is in effect, flowing billions of dollars of capital toward unregulated cognitive substitutions. Connectomes explode as an industry, but it is the parallelizable, controllable fly brain which dominates. Welcome to the drosophila century.
