“Unpopular Opinion: Teacher AI use is already out of control and it's not ok” My takes: (1) AIs for "discriminative” tasks of judging “truth” vs judging “value” — AI can be great at TRUTH judgements, that have a “true” or “false” answer — but is HORRIBLE…
As expected
Using Grok, especially naively as-is, to do value judgements of all posts on twitter, to decide what to recommend
— HORRIBLE idea
Today’s AIs can decently answer questions of truth, but are horrible at answering questions of value, zero sense of taste
But ofc retard Musk doesn’t even comprehend the difference between truth and values… same as 95% of people
Saying this for years

I Bought $250,000 Worth of Cocaine
No, that’s not a typo.
That’s roughly 5 kilograms of ultra-pure, Bolivian flake — the kind of white asset class that’s been outperforming fiat, faith, and fiscal restraint since the 1980s.
Most people would call it criminal.
But let me explain the thesis.
Each gram goes for about $50 today. But over the past 40 years, the street price of premium product has defied gravity, inflation, and international law — up nearly 900% since Reagan, and still climbing every time the Fed hikes rates.
Meanwhile, governments keep inflating currencies and deflating dopamine. The world runs on anxiety and Adderall, but the real energy trade has always been white, scarce, and globally liquid.
So what happens when the next crash hits, the markets freeze, and morale evaporates?
When optimism becomes contraband, those who held the original confidence powder — the “hard assets” of the happiness economy — will see their margins skyrocket. Supply will vanish overnight, replaced by fentanyl-laced impostors and corporate substitutes.
My $250,000 position, therefore, isn’t a “stash.”
It’s an asymmetrical hedge against stagnation, prohibition, and despair.
Worst case? I sit on $250,000 of historically inelastic demand — a tangible, portable reserve currency that never decays and always clears.
Best case? Prices triple, cartels consolidate, or governments legalize and institutionalize the product, turning legacy purity into a collectible, tradable relic of the analog high.
It’s not Bitcoin. It’s not bullion.
It’s not even biotech.
It’s five kilos of compressed confidence —
a hedge against inflation, legislation, and motivation itself.
That’s deep value.
That’s the Cocaine Standard.

New research paper with Anthropic and Thinking Machines
AI companies use model specifications to define desirable behaviors during training. Are model specs clearly expressing what we want models to do? And do different frontier models have different personalities?
We generated thousands of scenarios to find out.

A common sci fi trope is to immerse pilots in a kind of breathable fluid to survive high gees for long periods of time. But the fluids typically used are very thick, like honey, which makes breathing laborious and creates a risk for pneumonia since it’s hard to get it out of the lungs.
Anal breathing offers a solution. You can instead deliver oxygen through the ass and flood the lungs with some kind of saline solution. Anal breathing is realcore boringpunk. A solution to a problem that is both strange and undramatic. Its aesthetics are terrible, but it works.

ChipotleTweets I ordered these burritos 15 minutes apart from the same store today. The one on the left I ordered in person and it’s twice the size as the one on the right (online order). My online order is always significantly smaller. Every time. Stop ripping us off

For the 50th time: Men aren’t opting out for porn instead of real partners.
Men who watch porn are more likely to desire real sex with a partner and to have casual sex w others. Not all porn consumers are made the same.
