Ha! Yeah, I think it's an interesting case where the production frontier shifts and almost all the value accrues to consumer surplus. So there's tremendous welfare value to AI, but just no economic value: no rents to be captured. However, I'm willing to hear the counter-argument that the apps that did well involved some kind of social coordination mechanism and my personal apps obviously don't do that, so apples and oranges. However, the counter-counter argument is that reviews and app store utilization might be flat for other reasons (maybe attention is saturated), so it doesn't mater how much AI helps with software. Lack of adoption isn't the software's fault.

NEW: The reported 14-point draft Iran–US memorandum proposes: Immediate and permanent ceasefire across all fronts, including Lebanon. US commitment not to interfere in Iran’s internal affairs. End of the naval blockade and reopening of the Strait of Hormuz within 30 days. US military withdrawal from areas surrounding Iran. Suspension of oil-related sanctions and restoration of Iran’s access to its revenues. $300 billion in reconstruction plans/funding from the US and allies. 60 days of negotiations toward a final agreement focused on Iran’s nuclear program and broad sanctions relief. Iran reaffirms it will not develop nuclear weapons under the NPT. No new US troops or sanctions during negotiations. Release of $24 billion in frozen Iranian assets during the negotiation period. Creation of a monitoring mechanism and UN Security Council endorsement of the final deal. Missile programs and Iran’s support for regional allied groups would be excluded from the talks.

I’ve had a number of conversations with folks inside and outside government about the current situation with Anthropic, and here is what I believe to be true: — As we know, Anthropic publicly released its Mythos class models earlier this week under the commercial name Fable. — Fable is Mythos with guardrails. But if those guardrails fail, then you’ve exposed Mythos and its advanced cyber capabilities to people who shouldn’t have them. (Keep in mind that Anthropic itself widely promoted the idea that Mythos was a cyberweapon and needed to be regulated as such. They asked for government regulation of Mythos and championed the guardrails on Fable. If there is a vulnerability — big or small — it is Anthropic’s responsibility to patch.) — A highly credible trusted partner of both Anthropic and the USG who was testing Fable came forward with a jailbreak of those guardrails. The Admin asked Dario to fix the jailbreak or de-deploy the model. Dario refused. — In their blog post, Anthropic defended its decision by saying the jailbreak isn’t serious. That is not what the trusted partner and the USG believe; nor is that kind of minimizing language consistent with Anthropic’s brand as the AI safety company. It’s difficult to fathom how they could claim a jailbreak allowing operability of a cyber weapon could be defined as not “serious.” — In the past, Anthropic has always said that safety must be top priority and taken super seriously. In this case, Anthropic prioritized the continued offering of the consumer model over safety. — In reaction, the Admin issued the export control. The Admin did this reluctantly. It’s been very surprised that Anthropic hasn’t wanted to cooperate with a reasonable safety request (ie fixing the jailbreak issue). Anthropic’s reaction is very much at odds with their branding and ethos as a safe AI research community. — The Admin’s hope now is that Anthropic remediates the safety issue, the export control is lifted, and Fable goes back into general release. The Admin wants all of this to happen as soon as possible. It is frankly bewildered that Anthropic hasn’t wanted to comply with safety requests that it previously said were its highest priority. — Those trying to misdirect and tie this action to the prior DoW/Anthropic issues are wrong. The Admin values Anthropic’s technical capabilities and feels that this issue, while serious, should be easily resolved. The ball is in Anthropic’s court.

I take Cialis, but not for sex. It’s actually a longevity medicine. Cialis (Tadalafil) is great for the same reason it gives you fantastic erections… it improves blood flow. Studies show that Tadalafil… 34% reduced all-cause mortality 27% reduced major heart disease 34% reduced stroke 32% reduced dementia It has also shown benefit in insulin sensitivity, metabolic health, and reduction of body fat. Women have blood vessels too, so theoretically they'd get the same longevity upside. The research is thinner, but early signals are promising. It’s sad that when men and women could benefit from it can miss out because it’s taboo. My protocol is 5mg daily and I've been on it for about two years. *Observational research shows associations, not causation. Outcomes may be influenced by underlying differences in study populations.

What’s the best way for non developers to 1. share skills with their team 2. automatically enforce that it’s always updated for everyone if changes are made 3 allow others to update it centrally Github is not the best solution as it’s too clunky and doesn’t solve #2 Notion is a little better but can’t put code there I’m tempted to create my own tools but someone surely has created this already??
