AI is neither conscious nor has it feelings

There was a popular post back in November 2025 about how Google is likely to win the AI race. The OP of said post included an edit a couple weeks back to say that their opinion might have aged poorly in light of recent OpenAI and Antrophic capabilities. I'm not so quick to count Deepmind out considering Demis's absurdly competitive and passionate nature, but obviously one person alone cannot bring about AGI. I also recognize I'm deep inside Google's ecosystem - I actually used Bard a good ...

This morning I used Opus 4.8 to spin up a very simple landing page that auto-checks every 60 seconds if Fable 5 is back up. Took about 25 minutes of tinkering, grabbed a Cloudflare domain and just piggybacked off of another of my project's AWS for hosting. I did add an email notifier that fires off after Fable 5 "returns" for 5 minutes (to avoid false positives) but it only sends a "Fable 5 is back" email and nothing more, scouts honor. https://isfable5up.com I admitt...

Other than for safety reasons, why haven't AI models that think in their own optimized "alien" language been developed before? Wouldn't it allow the AI to think more freely and efficiently? (this is probably a dumb question)

We estimate that data centers caused average retail electricity rates to fall modestly in the United States from 2015 to 2024 using an instrumental variables approach. Despite prevailing sentiment, the finding is consistent with economic reasoning: existing large power system fixed costs, economies of scale in transmission and distribution, and declining unit costs for generation imply that durable demand growth lowers average prices. We find patterns of economies of scale for transmission, dist...

For context, the game in the screenshot got a lots of hate on twitter for using AI for some art asset in the game. It's feel kinda weird to go on Chinese social media, and see AI being used everywhere to generate all kind of idea, be it art, animation, video or meme...etc... and shared there without any hate against them. if something is good, it's well received regardless of how it was made, the "AI slop" mentality basically doesn't exist there, it's like going into another world. ...

https://www.anthropic.com/research/mythos-preview ​ So, if hacking capabalities is an emergent property of better coding, better reasoning, and better autonomy; that means other Ai labs (like OpenAI, Google Deepmind, even Open Source ones) will also reach Mythos-level capabilities sooner or later. ​ That means, USG will also restrict other Ai labs in the future if jailbreak is not solved. We are heading towards Nationalization. Gg

Claude Sonnet 5 has been spotted as an internal model registration on an Anthropic partner platform. Internal testers suggest a possible release as early as next week. If the rumors are accurate, next week could be a huge week for AI with Sonnet 5, GPT 5.6, Gemini 3.5 Pro and potentially Fable all expected around the same timeframe.

To access certain capabilities, you will need to provide an ID. The verification provider is Persona, a 3rd party backed by Peter Thiel. Discord dropped Persona as an age verification vendor following a major user backlash and data exposure incident in February 2026. Read more: https://support.claude.com/en/article...

Godfather of AI blasts Musk's xAI as failure, says labs are risking a big bubble explosion. Yann LeCun, founder of AMI Labs called Elon Musk's xAI a failure, adding that he expects it won't be able to compete with OpenAI and Anthropic. LeCun, who was formerly Meta's AI chief also said AI labs are risking a big bubble explosion if they don't cut costs and raise prices. LeCun's AMI Labs recently raised $1 billion to work on "world models" which he sees as key to the next stage ...

Hi! I am a student from India, this is my first paper that I published. I was curious whether I can combine both Attention and FFN together to save parameters without sacrificing performance, specifically at parameters <= 10M. Basically my intuition was that Attention is dynamic and smart about which information to mix, but it has no strong non-linearity to actually transform that information. SwiGLU has the strong non-linearity but it's static. Same weights for every input. So instead of...
