The proactive assistant I built locked me out of the app because I kept causing problems

I’ve been building Orb - Proactive AI as a free open source project and IOS app pair for about 3 months now, I use it daily for my own life, it lets me know when I make a conflict of meetings and when I need to know about something that’s going on, that part runs as an open source backend you can run on your PC, which pairs to the IOS app. So today I saw that Orb had sent me a message about how NVDA’s stock is down 5%, I go to click it and when I go into the app it wouldn’t connect to my PC.

Why AI companies want to scare you: 'We immediately think of The Terminator'

The following is translated from a Dutch news site... The doomsday scenarios regarding artificial intelligence vary: you lose your job, everything will soon be hacked, or humanity will be destroyed. But they share the same goal: to convince you that AI is so powerful that you should be a little afraid of it. Large AI companies love to tell you how dangerous their latest AI program is. And then, every time, they do the same thing: they bring it to market anyway. For instance, seven years a...

Nick Saraev explains the exact moment his AI agency's $40K ceiling broke

For a year, Nick Saraev's AI automation agency never cleared $40K a month. Not from lack of clients — from the opposite problem. Every client wanted something custom, so nothing he built ever got reused. A year of hours, and he was no more efficient than day one. Then, by accident, a client asked for the exact same build as a past client. Word for word. He copied the system, changed the chatbot's colors, delivered it — and made several thousand dollars in maybe an hour. That's the wh...

Subscription as a college student

Is it worth buying an AI subscription as a college student. Studying law and finance so coding and super complex problems aren’t a huge issue but to help with notes maybe to quiz me and have more uploads and research capabilities. If it is worth it which is the best right now.

Found a weird Snapchat AI conversation I saved during an outage in early 2025. Any idea what was happening here?

I found this conversation I had with Snapchat AI in early 2025 while it was apparently having technical issues. I remember saving these messages because they were so bizarre, but I never posted them anywhere. These messages are in chronological order and no messages are missing/left out despite the conversation happening a while ago (I emphasize this because snap ai isnt supposed to send multiple messages at once ever..hence my confusion at this whole conversation) This screenshot is from Snap...

Research Preview Assistance Request: CALM WINS on LLM response to perceived credibility of two speakers according to their emotionality and expletive use specifically in abuse situations

My father and uncles always told me that the minute you use an expletive in argument, you lose. Turns out not only are they right, but it's a truth that we've enshrined in AI. I took some actual text conversations between a known victim (consented, anonymized, in therapy now) and their stalker (anonymized, under investigation by the FBI, identity unknown after 4 years) to evaluate something completely unrelated but found that when I personalized the convos for that project ('i am person A'...

AI Companies Are Buying Antique Books, Ingesting Their Contents to Train Models, and Then Destroying Them at Incredible Scale, Even If Almost No Copies Remain

Source AI companies are literally destroying physical books to train their models. Using hydraulic cutting machines, they rip pages from used books, scan them with industrial equipment, and feed them into their AI systems. This practice, protected by the first-sale doctrine and fair use, has now become so widespread that book sellers are cashing in on the AI boom. Rare and out-of-print books are being pulped, raising serious ethical and cultural concerns about the cost of AI progress. &#3...
