https://x.com/MattPRD made #moltbook, a social network for #OpenClaw bots, made by https://x.com/steipete.

I decided to make an interactive explorer, to get insights on what's going on there. More details: https://altsoph.substack.com/p/moltbook-anatomy-ai-agents-social

This time I want to explore a phenomenon I've been investigating: what happens when a model trained on contradictory information needs to give a single, coherent answer. The experiments demonstrate something I call "test-time mode collapse" — how models quickly lock into one consistent persona, and how we can influence which persona that is https://altsoph.substack.com/p/quantum-persona-and-test-time-mode

There are coding agents, so there are agent rules. Last weekend, I tried to analyze how they are used in the wild by looking at hundreds of public github repositories. Here are some thoughts about it: https://altsoph.substack.com/p/big-bang-of-agent-rules

okay, since today is April Fool's Day, I'd like to share some results on fully automated jokes + cartoons generation. more examples and details in my substack post https://altsoph.substack.com/p/comic-cartoon-generation
COMIC CARTOON GENERATION

Since April Fool’s Day is today, let me share some of my results on automated comic cartoon generation.

Earlier, we with https://x.com/framrus developed a humor generation method that gives human-level results on blind tests.
Now, we with https://x.com/SaveTheRbtz are launching HUMOR-ARENA (https://humor.ph34r.me/), generated humor labeling site with the models ranking, and the top of generated jokes. Blog-post: https://altsoph.medium.com/humor-arena-7ef24ddcba63

Here is the post on my #NaNoGenMo 2024 submission https://altsoph.medium.com/gallery-of-unseen-c690e5146a35 -- evolutionary search for prompts for aesthetical images generation and unsupervised generation of "guidebook" for them.
GALLERY OF UNSEEN - Altsoph’s blog - Medium

First, I was playing with the evolutionary search of the optimal prompt for the SDXL model to maximize the aesthetic scores of results measured by Google’s pretrained NIMA model. As a starting set of…

An overdue write-up on our past project Freaking Architecture: https://altsoph.substack.com/p/freaking-architecture
We built an unsupervised pipeline for generating diverse architectural images and publish them daily on Telegram, Mastodon, Bluesky, and Tumblr. #GenerativeArt #architecturephotography
