> “This has been working well for my toy inbox, but my real inbox was too huge and triggered compaction. During the compaction, it lost my original instruction”

It must be my fault, I must have been holding it wrong

@pikesley I really want to grab one of these supers and ask them, Pulp Fiction style: You know what they call a random automaton with a fixed time-limited context window in Computer Science? A Markov chain.

@pikesley It was the follow-up tweet that really sapped my remaining will to live. "immune to misalignment"; "Real inboxes hit different"? Anyone writing like this has clearly been harmed by prolonged exposure to cognitive hazards.

Remember comrade: GenAI cannot fail. It can only be failed.

@pikesley Well, when the context compaction lost the instructions, then the compaction seemed to have been implemented badly. Let me guess, by an amateur vibe coder?

@pikesley it's pretty extraordinary to be so open about your idiocy that you would post pictures of you pleading with the maths like it's a real boy…?

@licho @pikesley Nobody at Meta uses email for anything, except maybe communicating with external people (which generally requires an NDA) Internal discussions are all on workplace. The only emails you get come from bots, task notifications and the like. So I could see how deleting your own inbox wouldn't actually impact your productivity all that much.

@prism oh yeah. And they are forced to use Horizon Worlds xD I forgot. But in the real world, everyone uses it. @pikesley

@licho @pikesley Only if you work for Horizon. Which is fiewer and fewer people

Mostly it is Zoom.

Meta said it's shifting focus for Horizon Worlds to be "almost exclusively mobile" and that it will separate its Quest VR platform from the virtual world.
