Hi, I'm Felix. I'm an eng lead working on Claude. I love watching people take flight and do things they never thought possible. We often describe that as "being more ambitious" when using AI, which is tricky advice to follow. I wrote a tutorial: felixrieseberg.com/how-to-be…

How to be more ambitious: A tutorial for humans with models

“We’re not ambitious enough” is easy to post and hard to follow. Here’s a practical tutorial, with prompts.

the "Hard Problem" in a nutshell: 1. atoms aren't conscious 2. humans are made of atoms 3. humans are conscious 4. so at least one of 1-3 must be false Panpsychists say #1 is false Dualists say #2 is false Illusionists say #3 is false Materialists say #4 is false

water is transparent only within a very narrow band of the electromagnetic spectrum, so living organisms evolved sensitivity to that band, and that's what we now call "visible light".

🚨BREAKING: Jensen Huang just EXPOSED Dario and Altman’s "Rogue AI" grift to avoid getting sued into oblivion under EXISTING law “Don't let this doomsday narrative cause somebody to relieve them of the laws that currently exist. Go and read between the lines. They're actually not asking for more laws; they're asking to be relieved of the laws we do have.” ABSOLUTE TRUTH NUKE

The executives said the boardroom Wi-Fi “feels slow.” Speed test: 487 Mbps. Apparently 487 Mbps has bad energy. So I created a new network: EXECUTIVE_PRIORITY_5G Same access points. Same internet connection. Same VLAN. I just gave it a more expensive name. Connected the CEO. He opened a website and immediately said: “Oh wow, this is way faster.” By lunch, five VPs had asked for access. I told them executive bandwidth is limited and I can only approve users with a genuine business requirement. They are now competing for access to Wi-Fi they already had. Performance is unchanged. Satisfaction is through the roof.

"AI writes terrible code." Does it work? Yes. Do the tests pass? Yes. Can another AI understand and modify it? Yes. Then I have terrible news about how much your definition of terrible code matter. Humans aren't reading this stuff for much longer, many already stopped.
