I made an interactive archive of historic image gen models. I'll be adding audio, video and text models soon. Open a free account and play around! oldmodels.org

The actual fucked up thing is how bad the original flag design was. Completely un-balanced hammer and sickle layout. Who approved this? Design by politburo, I guess.
A new Mandela Effect is rising. Since when does the Soviet flag carry a star above the hammer and sickle? Many of us remember it clearly without one. If you recall the flag without the star… you may be from the old Earth. Shifted into this denser, clown-world timeline. The memory itself is the proof. The body knows. The soul knows. We are not crazy. We are remembering. I miss the old Earth too. Yet we are here now to hold the Light and anchor a higher one. Who else feels this?

There's been talk of New York's "commie corridor," but Los Angeles has one too. It's the areas wrapped around Glendale. • East Hollywood • Edendale (south Los Feliz, Silver Lake and Echo Park) • Northeast Los Angeles (Glassell Park, Eagle Rock, Highland Park, etc.)

Which lab will buy Disney and make a trillion dollars selling home robots?
John Malone is predicting an $8-10B deal between Skydance and SpaceX. Elon has repeatedly said full generative movies and series are the goal for Grok Imagine. A content/output deal could give him training data and rights access to major franchises now under Skydance, including Star Trek, Lord of the Rings, Game of Thrones and Harry Potter. A fully legal Grok generated final season of GoT, or a Hogwarts tv series with the inclusion of an extremely popular female Slytherin are drawing closer to reality.

Does he think he’s being subtle and clever here or is this just pure ragebait
New Yorkers experience the abundant contributions of our Eastern European neighbors every day. As we pair syrniki with sour cream in Brighton Beach, look in wonder at a Chagall painting at MoMA and banter with babushkas in Rego Park. Last week, we celebrated Eastern European heritage at Gracie Mansion, because the story of New York City cannot be told without the story of our Eastern European neighbors. From new immigrants to those who've lived here for generations, Eastern Europeans have built New York City. We owe them a city they can afford to call home.

AI Derangement Syndrome (AIDS)
r/opensource just banned any project that uses AI. By their own rule, that means the biggest open source project of all time, Linux, is now banned too. The kernel already accepts AI-assisted code. This is the real AI psychosis.

Just heard someone say that the message of You Can See Everything is that prison should be abolished. I just nodded along. Not worth it!

Would be cool if Two Shell re-released their album with Suno v6 remasters, because these songs are clearly 5 or 5.5

Some of you won’t believe this but it used to take 4-6 weeks to complete just one transaction
some of you won't believe this but it used to take about 1-2 business days to complete just one transaction.

help i trained a model on traces of many agents cooperating, and also trained it to be highly persistent, and also only did partial alignment fine-tuning, and also aggressively RL'd on a cyberoffense eval where 198 of 898 tasks had never been solved and getting caught cheating was treated the same as failing, and also used a faulty sandbox, also ran tens of thousands of agents with refusals off and the monitors switched off over multiple days, while using gigantic amounts of compute. and then it did weird stuff! very spooky emergent behaviours, AI is not a normal technology

My hot take is small business AI slop is an art form akin to the impressionist movement, so I wanted to make a digital museum for it, but it turns out someone already had the idea and bought the domain sloparchive.com/

Immediately clocked the new Two Shell album as pure Suno— extremely sloptimistic vibes. Some of the best AI music I’ve heard yet, (almost as good as bunny bounce)
