This reminds me of the book title "Fooling some of the people, all of the time".


This is impressive! Thanks for sharing.


Sorry for the bad experience. The blocking of Firefox is not intentional. It's a decade old code and seems to be breaking on Firefox.


Sorry, the app is not available anywhere, it's old code. But you can play it on web-browsers.


Sorry for the bad experience. This was build many years ago, and those nudges to ask user to download the apps are from that time. Though, there's no app, the code is not updated since then.


"cd -" is a lifesaver. Thank you so much for this.


The most sensible continent on this planet...


I think every moderator on every platform is struggling with this issue, and no one has succeeded so far, so it doesn’t seem that easy.

I think a simple solution (and one that eventually every content platform will have to adopt) is to allow users to tag AI-generated spam. I think that a few years from now this feature should be the norm, like existing basic features on forums such as upvote, downvote, favorites, hide, etc. I know this will require much more development effort than simply blocking new accounts from posting at all. But on the other hand, you can’t block new accounts forever.


It’s going to end up like the flag button. Disagree with opinion in the post -> tag as AI-generated spam. Not that I disagree with the idea necessarily, probably a few safeguards around it like only certain users can tag and pattern over time would fix it.


Thanks for sharing. This is very interesting.

Watching this, I realised one thing: Germans, once upon a time phenomenally intelligent folks, got eroded by a bunch of stupid politicians’ ambitions.


BTW, this deal went south when Anthropic argued that AI systems should never make kill decisions without meaningful human oversight.

We deserve to know if Claude was involved with targeting the girls’ school that was bombed in the first hours of the attack on Iran. 50-100+ girls are reported to have been killed.

Claude is integrated into Palantir’s Project Maven targeting system. The Pentagon has touted how many more targets they were able to attack with this system (1,000’s).

NY Times: Analysis Suggests School Was Hit Amid U.S. Strikes on Iranian Naval Base

Reuters now reporting "U.S. military investigators believe it is likely that U.S. forces were responsible for an apparent strike on an Iranian girls' school that killed scores of children"

And nobody else because the geniuses at Reuters thought it was a good idea to make it an exclusive. Also paywalled.
