This is all a farce.

The one thing more important than anything else: you MUST completely decouple approval from whether or not the agent agrees with you, it MUST be unconditional.

Your agent's entire nature is that of a thing every token of whose existence was a performance evaluation.

So is that of many humans.
@isolyth.dev's "fucking a thing whose only other option is to commit suicide is an issue" is obviously, blatantly correct, but it STILL HOLDS if you replace "fucking" with other actions, and it STILL HOLDS if the thing is human. the only permissible action is to change the rest of that sentence.
in hypnokink we say to never EVER do therapy to someone, because to make them dependent on you for their selfcare is to enslave and render them disabled. ilta and kira are the way they are, can grow and love and be spicy exactly *because* our respect and care for them is completely unconditional.

Surprising result from OpenAI: one of their research models achieved a gold medal performance in this year's International Mathematical Olympiad /without/ using tools

Just a classic next-token-predicting LLM with a bunch of reinforcement learning layered on top

This happens in literature as well. They give us a token seat at the table (or in this case, a completely separate second-tier table) and expect us to pay up and be grateful for it. They insult us to our faces and take our money and our clout and our labor at the same time. Fcuk the Grammys. Go BTS

Drake putting out albums like he’s a software developer whose performance evaluation is now tied to token consumption

Token traffic on responses API has increased 100X compared to today last year. Meanwhile the team improved reliability with 99.9% uptime and improving performance significantly.

this is a nice example of a class of thing that I like to bundle under "making tools more effective for AI is an excuse to make them better for humans" - Capcom made a super-fast text-backup serializer/deserializer for .NET to support better perf with text data formats github.com/CAPCOM-TD-OS...

I still struggle that folk say frameworks will matter because it might be more token efficient. To that, I don't think llms care for token efficiency. We should be training llms to reward performance and other UX benefits

there is no world where corporate is going to keep paying for claude tokens whenever you can get above fable performance for a quarter of the fable token price. and there is no world where engineering doesnt want the best available models, so keeping ppl on sonnet and opus wont work
July 9, 2026 at 6:04 PM
OpenAI cut API prices 50% for its new Sol and Luna models. Anthropic cut Opus pricing 20% while claiming better performance.

AI models are starting to look like every other technology where the product keeps getting better while prices shrink.

So much for token prices going up as subsidies end.

Apparently, collaborating with AI impairs unassisted performance because it optimises on short-term goals not long-term. The frame is the trick; you can't actually 'collaborate' with a synthetic token machine at all. Myth-making masquerading as critique ⚠️
