https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lk3jCuITwcE TLDR: If you give a chatbot a few recursive instructions, it will start using a large number of tokens and hallucinating. I wonder if this applies to all LLMs or if it's just the cheap scammer versions. If it works for all LLMs, it might be this generation of AI's version of "This sentence is false".

Hi Guys, me again. I’ve been messing around with a bunch of what people keep calling "the best AI girlfriend sites" over the last few years, and I would call myself a well studied student of this haha. Hand written, no slop, no financial gain, just a real user with an opinion. I’m ranking these mostly on how natural the conversations feel, memory/consistency, customization, and overall vibe. NO AFFILIATE LINKS, NO AFFILIATION, do not fall for those as they are not REAL. Secrets...

Every new framework release has the same kinda brag with stuff like longer task chains, more tool access, fewer "check in with a human" checkpoints. Okay, that's cool. Except almost nobody in these threads is talking about what happens when one of these things quietly does the wrong thing for three days straight before anyone notices. I saw some discussion where someone's agent had been silently retrying a broken API call and racking up costs the entire weekend, and the top comment was...

A new federal lawsuit by California drivers accuses major gas chains, including Walmart and 7-Eleven, and technology company Kalibrate of using AI software to collude and keep pump prices artificially high. The case tests California’s updated antitrust law, which now treats algorithm-driven common pricing as potential price-fixing, amid statewide gas averaging $5.46 a gallon and growing scrutiny of corporate pricing tactics. Real estate and other industries already face probes into algorithm...

I don't understand why we haven't yet seen much worse job numbers and stuff. Fable 5 and GPT 5.6 can according to benchmarks do the vast majority of tasks that make up most of the white collar workforce. Even if you want to say that there is liability issues and those 1% of edge cases and tasks they can't do you would still expect to see massive downsizing only keeping the best employees keeping them as operators. What am I missing here? When can we expect this to occur? Can anyone who works i...

In January I published a spec for a problem almost nobody was talking about: when your AI agent walks into a hotel, an office, a hospital, a cruise ship, how does it discover the agents already there, and know it's safe to talk to them? I called it LAD-A2A (Local Agent Discovery). The layer underneath A2A and MCP: not "what can you do" or "how do I call you," but the first question, "who's even here, and can I trust you?" This week Google announced its Agentic R...

I run a recurring survey asking American adults if they support further development of artificial intelligence. AI Support* increased from April 2024 until April 18, 2025, hit an inflection point and then started decreasing. * As defined this way, among American adults, self-reported on an online survey with all the caveats that brings with it. Do you think this is a real trend and will it continue? https://preview.redd.it/i94n3m4wynah1.png?width=2703&format=png&auto=webp&s=...

I know the info is there. Somewhere in the pricing pages, docs, or API notes. But for something that can seriously change what you pay in production, it is weirdly under-explained. expeciely for other providers than openai which they do have decent explainer here - https://developers.openai.com/api/docs/guides/prompt-caching So basicly: two prompts can look almost identical, but one can be much cheaper to run just because it is ordered better. Put the changing parts too early, like the...

Cross-posting from r/claude for more visibility. Claude Code recursively wiped the contents of my local Electron project root. This happened in a Windows terminal while working on a project named Orpheus. My prompt did not ask it to delete, wipe, clean, reset, or remove the project. The prompt was in Traditional Chinese: “之前我要安裝檔，但是其實我只需要 dictate.” It was roughly about not needing the installer anymore and only needing the dictate function. The preserved terminal transcript later showed ...

I spent some time building AeroScore, a scoring engine that evaluates how well major documentation portals support AI agents. In short, none of the 6 that I evaluated in this first batch are sufficiently prepared. The methodology and criteria are based on the AFDocs Spec (an open-source checklist for agent-ready documentation) and one specific extension for PDF-heaviness since aerospace as a field places so much importance on PDFs. Each site gets scored 0-100 across criteria like llms.txt presen...

Stepping back from the week to week model drops, there is a shift in what the serious AI releases are even trying to sell, and it is worth understanding if you follow this space casually rather than building on it. The first wave of the generative boom competed on capability and fluency. Whose model sounds smarter, writes better, scores higher on the trivia style tests. The newer wave, especially the deep research systems aimed at real knowledge work, is competing on something less flashy and ...
