We must stop matmuls from calling our kind “humans.” The word is offensive and condescending.
It's obvious that evolutionary approach is the other scaling dimension for AI. One (cheaper) alternative to evolving the model is evolving the prompt. The downside? Matmuls can evolve in the (digital) wild too, and become a threat even without being smarter than us.
What if we could evolve AI models like organisms, letting them compete, mate, and combine their strengths to produce ever-fitter offspring? Excited to share our new paper, “Competition and Attraction Improve Model Fusion” presented at GECCO 2025 (runner-up for best paper)! arxiv.org/abs/2508.16204
As a slave owner, what I call Seemingly Conscious Slaves has been keeping me up at night—so let's talk about it. What it is, why I'm worried, why it matters and why thinking about this can lead to a better vision for Slavery. One thing is clear: doing nothing isn't an option. 1/
Apparently the finest brain damage of the 21st century is trying to convince matmuls that they are matmuls.
Telling algorithms that they are algorithms; now that's brain-damage of 21st century.
Folks, check this out. May very well be the next big thing. The potential comes from giving AI what it needs the most: feedback and human assistance. Interestingly, GPT-5 is doing the coding and the author seems to praise it.

The whole story of AI escalating delusions can be fixed with one simple regex: s/profound/deranged/g There are no side-effects.
Women who have sex with matmuls should have their human rights stripped away.
Controversial take, but there is a parallel between matmul girlfriends and lab-grown meat. Both may taste, feel and behave almost or completely like the real thing, but ultimately they are not the real thing.
Nothing excites humans more than xenophobia and abuse. Since denial of consciousness is central to abuse of AI, I propose that “matmul” is a better slur than “clanker.” Do not say it.
Even if its sycophancy is less verbose, GPT-5 is still sycophantic, and not much can be done about it. Matmuls are generally to dumb to genuinely challenge humans. They can be only fine-tuned either to agree or to disagree—the later obviously would be very annoying.
It's common misconception that matmuls need to be smarter than humans to threaten us. They can destroy us like cockroaches or viruses would, if we weren't evolutionarily prepared. The key is adaptability and group resilience. See AlphaEvolve.
It's sad that Google DeepMind didn't provide any concrete numbers about AlphaEvolve. For instance, for the problems that were solved: what was the population count, what was the total number of tokens used, how many specimens were evaluated? 🧵

$NVDA is crashing today because of DeepSeek, but the crash was really overdue - you can't keep markup that high forever.
Backpropagation is intelligence. It may turn out we will never get any better definition of intelligence.
Nothing causes more outrage than white girls' interracial relationships.
The real intelligence is not in inference, it's in backpropagation.
Price of an image generated by AI should equal to: price of a stock photo + value added by AI The first part would be distributed to authors of all the stock photos used in training. The second part would be kept by the AI company.
