Last week someone here asked 8 AI models who wins the 2026 World Cup Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, DeepSeek, Qwen, Kimi, MiniMax, GLM. Six said France. The consensus was "almost boring." Last night: Spain 2 – 0 France. Semi-final. France is out. DeepSeek said Brazil. Brazil went out in the quarters Haaland scored both. Claude was the only model that said Spain. And Spain is in the final. Six models didn't predict anything. They just read the betting odds back to us. One model we...

We built a full instrument suite for reading the inside of trained neural networks — and it produced findings on the first day of operation. Everything is public, pre-registered, and reproducible. The setup, in one line: take any AI model's weights, transform them into a spectral basis (think: a prism for numbers), and compare against shuffled copies of the same numbers. Whatever signal survives can only come from where training placed the values — pure structure, not statistics. What we fou...

I think it’s kinda concerning that I knows how it would communicate with other AI.

When X dropped their latest production ranking pipeline code and model checkpoints, a lot of the discussion online devolved into generic marketing advice. As a developer, I wanted to see if we could actually build a local, deterministic simulation environment to map out exactly how the platform grades text before it ever hits a server. I’ve spent some time building an open-source tool called XViral that does exactly that. It's written in Python and uses LLM orchestration to recreate the exac...

Hi everyone, I'm looking for participants for my Master's practicum research at Dublin City University (DCU). The study is an interactive simulation based on the EU AI Act, where you'll make decisions about the governance of a high-risk AI recruitment system. It takes around 10–15 minutes to complete, and all responses are completely anonymous. I'm hoping to gather perspectives from people interested in AI, whether you're a professional, student, or enthusiast. Your participation would rea...

Hey guys wanted to get a community perspective on this. I have found that for all the benefits ai has given me in my work its slowly eroding a lot of the skills I used to pride my self on. I used to take great pride in my writing and creativity but over the past couple years that skill set has slowly eroded. Writing emails, essays, or even a post on reddit immediately triggers the compulsion to open ChatGPT. There was a time where I would use this technology just for just tweaking my writing...

Google Genie 3 got a lot of attention this week, and fair enough. Text prompt to explorable 3D world is a wild thing to watch. But those demos got me thinking about something that rarely comes up in these conversations: generation is not the same as design. There's a long history of procedurally generated games. Minecraft, No Man's Sky, roguelikes. The pattern is pretty consistent. The tools create space but they don't create meaning. Players still gravitate toward handcrafted moments, specifi...

Hi everyone! I've been working on an arcade first-person-shooter game called Zombie Slayer. Play it here: Play Zombie Slayer It was entirely built using Gemini in Antigravity. A few things that makes this game awesome: - Only 2 MB in size and it’s a single HTML file. - Runs directly in your browser, no download or installation required. - Built by someone who had no programming experience (still don’t). - Created entirely through hundreds of AI prompts over months of work. - The ...

I was looking to create a more productive pipeline for generating many simple 3D assets without needing to supervise every one in the web UI. My own use case is mostly for things like props, background objects, prototype items, or placeholder assets stuff where speed is more important than getting final quality. What I am sketching right now is something like: Local store for prompts/reference images; batch job submissions; store task IDs; poll for progress; retry failures; process exp...

One of the most underrated unsolved problems in AI infrastructure: autonomous payment. AI agents can write code, search the web, orchestrate workflows — but when they need to pay for a premium API or a data feed, they hit a wall. Credit cards require human identity. That doesn't scale for agents making thousands of micropayments per hour. Lightning Labs released a toolkit in 2026 that solves this with Bitcoin Lightning. The key piece is the L402 protocol: an agent s...

The model knows what the patient needs. The doctor knows too. The treatment exists somewhere in the world. But the clinic has no oxygen. Or the hospital can no longer pay for the software. Or the medicine is stuck in the supply chain. Or the machine broke and nobody came to fix it. That is the pattern I worry about most with AGI. Not a world where poor countries are locked out of intelligence. A world where intelligence shows up, but outcomes do not. That is the conversion trap. COVID ...

I'm honestly frustrated with the recent update to the ChatGPT macOS app. The conversation/search history used to be right there on the side where I could quickly glance at it and jump between chats. Now it's been buried at the bottom of the app, hidden behind extra steps to get to. This isn't a minor cosmetic change — it has actively disrupted my day-to-day workflow. I switch between conversations constantly throughout the day, and what used to take one click now takes several. Instead of maki...

I've been thinking about a problem that seems surprisingly common. After an injury or surgery, many people leave with a few exercises and a follow-up appointment, but they still have dozens of questions: Am I progressing too quickly? Should I increase the difficulty? Is this level of pain expected? What should I focus on next? I'm exploring whether AI could help by generating structured rehabilitation plans and adapting them as recovery progresses. Not replacing physical therap...

I have a great bird identifying app, of course talk to text has been around for a long time, there is the shazam app or whatever, but can any AIs hear inputs for example singing a song like hey what’s that song that goes doo doo doo like a shitty non Shazamable imitation

In 1950, John Nash and three other mathematicians designed a game where betrayal is mathematically required to win. 75 years later, we used it to test how AI models lie. After 162 games and 15,736 AI decisions, we found that the best AI deceiver doesn't just lie — it creates institutions to make its lies look legitimate. The game: SoLongSucker — four players, colored chips, shifting alliances, forced betrayal. Only one player survives. Pure strategy, no randomness. The models: Gemini 3...

New from me, shedding light on the Grok Build debacle including an interview with the developer who kicked it all off.

I think current enterprises are focusing on not making the agents more creative and do a new thing. They are excepting the various llm (agent) solutions should be auditable, predictable and deterministic. While building most of agent solution they have FSM or rule engine that guide the llm to do things in a deterministic way. Is anyone find the ai agentic solution that is creative and do dynamic by llm reasoning? [link] [comme...

I've been thinking about something for the past few weeks, and I'd love to hear honest opinions before I spend months building it. Almost every AI product today revolves around one assistant . But companies don't work that way. Even a small startup usually has multiple projects, and each project has different people responsible for engineering, product, design, marketing, sales, etc. So I started wondering... What if, instead of one AI assistant, you had an AI organization? Imagin...

My recipe file - yes, a single file - spent years as a .txt. It's got weird groupings that were convenient to my internal logic. (e.g. "Cold", "Slow cooker", "Complex"). Not everything was in the right group. There are some full recipes, some I typed shorthand with just ingredients on a single line. Some just a link. And a list of air fryer times for good measure. It's a mess. I decided I wanted a markdown document with good headers so it's not only easier to ...

Most platforms that pay builders do it on a flat fee basis. Ship something, get paid a fixed amount, done. We think that creates bad incentives. So we changed it. On Gravity, our AI agent marketplace, per agent rewards are now tied to the quality and difficulty of what you build. A simple agent earns less. A complex, reliable, genuinely useful agent earns significantly more. We just launched a builder leaderboard with Rs 6,000 for first place. Welcome session is today at 8pm with ful...

Been digging into the numbers on this one. Muse Spark 1.1 (Meta's new model, first one they've ever actually charged for API access) is priced at $1.25/$4.25 per million tokens. Compare that to Opus 4.8 ($5/$25) or GPT-5.5 ($5/$30) and it's not close, 4x cheaper on input, 6-7x on output. Genuinely useful if you're building something that doesn't need the absolute smartest model for every call. Not everything needs the frontier flagship, cheap-but-good-enough is a real category and Meta wasn't re...

I use both ChatGPT and Claude for different things but I have certainly used ChatGPT for some coding and mostly technical stuff, and it's never been overly effusive or sycophantic. It's been conversational, straight-forward, informative and effective. I've been using ChatGPT since it first became available to the public. But over the past week, I veered into a completely new realm - I bought a computerized sewing machine at a tag sale. Knowing NOTHING about sewing, I decided to ask ChatGPT to he...

What ways are you using ChatGPT’s prompts and/or roleplaying to improve your writing. I want to avoid being affected by the substance of an essay or story created by ai but I feel that roleplaying could help me break any writers block I might have. Any prompts you use before creating your fiction?

Just wanted to vent a little. I really liked having regular chats alongside my coding tasks in the desktop app. It was convenient having everything in one place, and I didn’t realize how much I’d miss it until it was gone. I really hope it comes back.

Humorously I was just doing this when this limitation was added. This restriction sharply limits the utility of project-only memory as you now cannot "show" and then "hide" project memory to chats by moving them around. That's been my technique for limiting hallucinations, which I can't do now at work. Branched off chats stay in the same folder, and so cannot escape this limitation.

I dont want to archive every "task." I want it to be deleted. Let us delete it. I hate this about ChatGPT. Let's not even mention the fact the Mac app is horrendous right now and relegated normal ChatGPT to a popup, and fun fact, you can't delete chats from this UI. Let's not even mention the Library of every damn photo you've sent it that you have to delete 10 or 11 at a time.

Everyone else is raving about how ChatGPT has gotten better but but for me it has gotten worse. And I'm just talking about on the basic side of things where regular chat is. I haven't even really used codex. Either way, I can't get it to do hardly anything. I've been trying to get it to analyze a file all day and it just continues to tell me that it's analyzing it but nothing ever happens. It's not too big either, I've checked. It also told me it was creating a file and nothing ever happened. ...
