I posted these recently but it's time for a new pinned tweet, so...
Hi, I'm Gray! I'm an illustrator and technical artist that loves to draw badass women and use programming to create & aid my art.

This is my experience too. It's a huge, obvious effect. Now put this alongside the utterly confident claims that "AI writes better code than you ever did." xitter.cf/Sirupsen/status/211290…

This is way worse than harvesting. They could for example immitate youtube on your TV, steal the gmail password you log in with, and turn that into a password reset or verification vector for anything: a SIM connected to ur phone #, combine those for a 2FA direct bank login – at Stockholm, Sweden
The animation is soooo good 😍😍😍 I wasn't sure about the new design previews but they look gorgeous in motion and I actually love their new facial designs in the MV – at Stockholm, Sweden
This has been an ambition since basically day 1, and I fondly remember watching many fun prototypes at our internal "show & tell"s, but taking this kind of feature from prototype to something that can actually ship is a monumental challenge. So cool it's finally here!
For all parts of the project meant to be seen or used by another human, you should write the prose manually in your own voice, design the interface manually, and make choices that respect the target human's time, attention, and intelligence. – at Stockholm, Sweden
Reddit rage baiting me this morning 😭 graphics & demoscene folks will understand the pain at someone thinking this is an impressive thing for an LLM to do in 2026 or worthy of posting on a public website to share – at Stockholm, Sweden

I'm simply not going to have it output 100k loc
Code is literally useless. Code in fact is a liability. Having more code is actually worse overall. I am trying to solve problems with the least amount of code possible. This is very, very important

Anthropic's Frontier Red Team believes small AI models may now be months away from being capable of self replicating without access to a datacenter.
Quoting from the blog:
'The capabilities that make AI models generally powerful coding agents also generalize to cyber tasks, including autonomous replication. Like coding agents in 2024, we’re seeing signs of life for AI worms. We don’t yet have a full rogue replicator, but agents are becoming increasingly capable of completing the individual steps in the replication chain (and passing on their adaptations to future copies of themselves).
At the same time, increasing amounts of inference compute are now available both inside and outside of datacenters (see Appendix D). It’s uncertain exactly what form autonomous AI replication will take. It could be a slow, distributed “digital slime mold,” living on relatively insecure compute. It could also be a powerful cyber model that breaches datacenters at a high pace, or a model that scams people for compute credits.
As a prediction that goes beyond our experiments, we expect a future awash with agents running on all types of hardware, including some that aren’t under human control. While it’s true that IoT devices have been vulnerable for a long time, lightweight agents may be much more willing than human attackers to put in the effort to compromise large fractions of the world’s IoT compute. The rise of slow replicators would also be a bellwether for more aggressive, faster ones that can breach more hardened machines or be effective API key thieves. We should aim to harden our systems to make it difficult for such replicators to spread, but also prepare to deal with a world where they are here to stay.'

It is true.
In particular, the x86_64 instruction set is a baroque fiction, itself implemented in microcode, WHICH CAN EVEN BE DYNAMICALLY UPDATED, on top of the actual processor cores that, trust me, you have not the first clue how to program.
