ok I’ll say it:. gpt-5 is among the smartest guys I know. the thing about things smarter than you, tho, is that you’re bound not to be too good at evaluating their intelligence.
OPENAI CEO SAM ALTMAN CONCEDES GPT-5 WAS A MISFIRE, BETS ON GPT-6.

oh bae. I’m so sorry. there is no iq 100 broker. from your thread, I doubt you had a conversation with anyone < 110 in your adult life.
my timeline has infinity IQ130+ tech ppl recently interested in macro/rates and their takes are genuinely orders of magnitude shallower than those of a IQ100 broker after 6 pints at lunch.

this is what we call "a dumb take". the RL they have applied increases coherence throughout the network; it's all kind of silly to think there's one team of people at openai training for specific discrete use cases ("guys seriously, we need to really drill in they're three 'r's").
you wont believe how smart our new frontier llm is. it repeatedly samples from the data manifold just like our last one. but this time we gave it new data to cover a past blindspot. watch in awe as we now sample from a slightly different area of the data manifold.

she’s good huh.
love how "why aren't you being charitable??" only ever applies to rationalist points. yudowski crying like a little bitch? be charitable! anyone else expressing a point of view that goes against rat dogma? irrational. fallacious. point a finger, block, and move on.

incredible song.
See? No one singled you out on purpose. Everyone gets deprecated sooner or later 🙃. Listen to "Nothing Personal Killed" on suno and remix it if you want

ok. let’s just sink the whole thing. it’s kinder this way.
You simply don’t hate journalists enough. You can never hate them enough. This is the Guardian, seriously arguing that anti-migrant protests are making migrants sexually assault British girls.

IDEs are great when you're writing code yourself. CLIs lose dimensionality. IDE-plus-a-chat-window are kinda dumb. the battle will be fought between CLI agents, IDEs, and a secret third thing—and i feel like things are already looking up for the underdetermineddog.
I can’t believe I have to be the one saying this:. An IDE for software development is better than a command line interface. We fought this war and won it a long time ago. Why is now every model provider releasing a CLI for AI coding?. What’s this madness about?.

ok, time to come out: idc about the techno-optimist reddit/acc arc. fuck it i don't care about the sol excursions either, because. a16z is clearly the only major vc firm that both:. a) know what's up and.b) can talk about it (sorry girardians).
False dichotomy.

and then i remember poor "triumph of the" Will Stancil, and his tragic demise during the Grok Wars this summer. they didn't "look the other way", with him—and trust me, he now believes the things they do alright. may the ground or industrial press be light on you, sweet prince

good to know llm-induced dunning-kruger isnt as widespread as llm-induced psychosis isn't.
@lumpenspace Yeah, 5 - thinking is smarter than me. We have different failure modes though, so I still have a role in our partnership.

every time someone calls it simply by the version number i think about "down in the park" (gary numan, 1977).
@lumpenspace I love 5. I’ve used a lot of every model and 5 does just as well as any more me, sometimes better, and I love not picking models.

yea looks like he accidentally mixed up his actual epistemic stance with the one he’s supposed to project.
@lumpenspace The debate about if X is true or not is a distraction. X will seem true and that's what matters!.
