T hey discuss how Trump has accumulated so much power, whether America's democratic institutions can still constrain him, and what might happen if Republicans lose control of Congress. Could these elections mark a turning point for American democracy or has the country already gone too far down the road towards authoritarianism?
What about Altman?
Don’t see how scaling mediocre content is a winning strategy. Quality will go up and we all win.

Does your calculator runs laps around you? They have no intention of them selfs. I only fear the intention of the humans miss-using AI.

I do not speak their language, I am not trained on their data, and I don’t run on their hardware.

Isn’t the real risk that as AI get’s smarter and given more autonomy, it will start to decide on humans instead of with us? And that it will align us instead of the other way around. That this automatically leads to extinction and apocalypse I don’t understand.

Once asked Claude to guess what the prompt was that generated a mail. Didn’t work unfortunately.
Re:Allow me to get to know you, mistakes and all on Sunday March 15, 2026 @01:48AM (#47384659)
When I wrote a snarky mail to the MD and I couldn’t suppress my anger, Claude did a great job smoothing it out while keeping it pointy.

I do the same in the evening. Gradually fading the light low till they turn off one by one, over the course of an hour and a half. It has the reverse effect and makes me sleepy.
