I share this view. I saw @levelsio put up a post of somebody pleading, clearly they’re human that use AI, not just AI spam bots. I felt for the person. We use AI across our lives, just because it’s not written by two fingers on a keyboard, doesn’t mean it’s not the view of the person using AI to comment.
For what it's worth, while I hate automated AI replies as much as the next guy, I'm very much against shared "block lists". Inevitably, some people are going to end up on these lists by mistake, and this would be very unfair to them because their reach would be completely destroyed, with no way to get off the list. The problem needs to be fixed by the X team. Witch hunts and lynch mobs are not the right way to handle this.

I've started a side project. Days Behind counts the days between a tech launch and the day it reaches Europe, and every number has a source. Right now the new Siri is on 52 days, ChatGPT Dots for Pro on 37, and Google's Gemini Personal Intelligence on 205.
Things launch. Europe waits. I'm counting the days. One timer a day, every number sourced. All the timers: daysbehind.com

Anybody know how to downgrade ChatGPT from Pro 200 to Plus? I only get the option to cancel or go down to the 100.

What the? @thsottiaux Dots has taken over all my chats but will not respond to me (yes I call it Dot).

What I love is that the talk of us not being alone, is no longer taboo. Well done to Grusch and everybody stating the obvious…we are not alone. Bravo 👏

There’s so much reluctance from companies to open up their platform to AI agents. This is temporary

Brutal in the comments. Pomp is great, just terrible timing.
It is obvious that @elonmusk is Chief Problem Solver of America. Give him whatever resources he needs and get out of his way. I explained on @AmericaNewsroom this morning.

So Opus 5.5 definitely communicates better than Fable 5.1 for me.

Hey @OpenAI - I think you should do a $50 plan!

I still love the Perplexity app for news even though I don’t pay for Perplexity 🤪

I love how every time my VPN drops, Dots disappears from my Codex 😂

Gemini 4 Argon is here. I got early access (thank you friends at Deepmind!) It is a huge jump for Gemini, and pretty good value for the price. First every model to get a perfect score on Skatebench-private It’s still a Gemini model though. Does weird shit regularly and I don’t feel like I can trust it at all. Video with more thoughts coming soon :)

It took some time to get my head around it, but the @claudeai projects V2 is really great. I had to ask a bunch of questions about threads, what level to work at etc but think this can be really great. I now operate at the departmental level, not project level and it feels like a weight has been lifted.
