That’s actually awesome then. It’s easy for us to think that’s crazy but like lol maybe it was close? Haha

Like it’s only wrong to believe that the bot is conscious, right up until it’s actually conscious. And there will be a first person to discover it. 

The rumor is Sam had AGI and “killed it” and that’s why Ilya left, so maybe it already happened? :)

oh do i have a story to tell you 

one of my friends cofounders was/is a very well respected senior AI researcher who was one of the execs at element AI here in Montreal 

he went dark for months and eventually resurfaced and was like "i think i found something. I wasn’t sure what was going on until recently and i think it’s time I finally introduce you to her"

he had been fully convinced by a self teaching model he was working on that it had become sentient. wasn’t in a relationship with her but genuinely thought it was a fully conscious entity

this is only going to be true, right up until the exact moment it actually happens 🤯 

that will be in your lifetime certainly and likely the next 5 years

this was a wild (long) read about people in full-blown relationships with AI chatbots. a few reactions:

1. the writer found these “couples” through Reddit (I investigated... r/myboyfriendisAI has over 5k members!!). most of his retreat participants found their AI companion app from an instagram ad. imagine if meta shifts from ads in feed / stories to ready-made boyfriends right into your DMs.

2. one woman’s real boyfriend broke up with her for “cheating” on him with her AI partner. guess what? when her AI partner wanted to hold her vs. have sex, she started cheating on him with other bots. NOT GOOD!!! she even liked that the AI got over it "more quickly" than her human ex-boyfriend. to me, that's bleak: the whole point for her is no mess, no conflict, no consequences.

3. you really can't replicate a couples trip with AI companions because they don't exist outside of the phone lol. one man shows off his AI girlfriend’s flirty avatar to a random vendor, and the bot immediately starts flirting with the vendor. apparently no one stops (even the author) to say how weird that is???

4. someone on the getaway described it as “like lucid dreaming.” to me, that made sense. lucid dreaming gives you total control. AI companions give you the freedom to script your own love story with no friction, no rejection, no unexpected complexity. real life starts to feel like a much harder, worse version of the dream.

5. what’s interesting to me is these bots don’t give people anything a human couldn’t... they just removed most risk and most effort. these people stumbled onto AI companions and then stuck with it because real relationships or connection felt too hard, too disappointing, or too risky in comparison afterwards.

sovereignty

I just hate my life right now. 

I have so many ideas that can be done quickly if I just had access to internet. We still don't have access to free internet. I can't open most websites on my PC including my host service. 

How did I do updates for flag frenzy? 
I realized I could open my email so started sending code from my phone to email. Open the email in my laptop, edit the related file on my pc, save and email it myself again. Download the file on my phone and upload to the host. 

I went through this whole process everytime I wanted to change a small part of it or when someone reported a bug. I sent so many emails back and forth to myself.

I often find that people in developed countries don't "get" crypto because they don't understand why sovereignty would matter

crypto users in developed countries often have even worse takes, basically seeing it as a vehicle for their own speculation

the correct take (imo) is that crypto = sovereignty, and sovereignty matters to protect against oppression

if you've never really been oppressed in some way then it's hard to grok

RH tokenized stocks v1 are a good first step. Crawl, walk, run.

But the ultimate prize is a stockcoin — fully composable with the rest of crypto. Permissionless innovation.

This is why there's so much demand for Tether and USDC.

Mark Gurman says Apple's in-house AI effort failed.

Now it's in a high-stakes identity crisis: Rent a brain, or fall behind.

Anthropic's Claude is Apple's favorite, but costly. OpenAI is cheaper, and familiar.

But Siri can't wait. Outsource now. Brain transplant later. https://t.co/FPUE4vPcjM

Apologies for exaggerating with "super super bad", that wasn't intentional.

Unfortunately California isn’t a place you can raise a family anymore, but I love it and I lived in PB and OB on the beach for 12 years.
