Fireside Tweets with Kyle Hughes – Pilot
A trial run of reading ridiculous tweets with an accompaniment of smooth jazz.
I should probably have a podcast. Most people certainly shouldn’t, but me, yeah, probably.
I just realized that I am imagining a real-life version of Atlas Shrugged, which means it is almost definitely going to happen.
It seems reasonable that the federal government should have access to better AI models than the public. It does mean they have exclusive access to a better labor-pool replacement than the public—more servile geniuses in more data centers. With that in mind, I don’t see how every election doesn’t increasingly become a referendum on who the public wants to have control of AGI.
What if Anthropic, Google, and OpenAI agree to not serve the federal government if Democrats win?

Sources say NSA is using Mythos Preview, and a source says it is also being used widely within the DoD, despite Anthropic's designation as a supply chain risk (Axios)

Let me be the first to say:
Claude Code is not the future of software engineering. It is a temporary funding mechanism to attempt to reach AGI in 2027 or 2028. The public's ability to participate in the creation or modification of economically-viable software post-2028 is definitely not guaranteed.
Capitalism is the only reason that there is significant pressure to get frontier model access into the hands of the public, but the rollout of Mythos shows the limits of that pressure. With a sufficiently advanced model the incentives would flip and one would rather build-and-vend all economically viable software in-house and outcompete every other company on earth. This is Elon's explicit plan with Macrohard: to autonomously run all economically-viable software companies. Escape velocity.
The sonnet was about the longing desire to think of a good topic for the sonnet. I was such a clever kid. What happened to him?
I’m at my parent’s house going through old schoolwork. Did I write a sonnet during junior year about jerking off? I can’t make heads or tails of this.
