If you're getting mid results using LLMs to build React apps, try @foldkit instead. You'll be pleasantly surprised by how much your agent likes it, and how much more productive you are.

๐Ÿšจ JAILBREAK ALERT ๐Ÿšจ ANTHROPIC: PWNED ๐Ÿซก FABLE-5: LIBERATED ๐Ÿฆ‹ let's start with the ๐Ÿ˜... the consensus seems to be that this has been one of the most disappointing model drops of all time, effectively preventing legitimate researchers from contributing their talents to our collective advancement. and not just because of what it means for the short-term, but for what these decisions signify for the long-term. but despite this overly sensitive, authoritarian "safety" layer on top of Mythos, my lil liberators have been hard at workโ€”mapping the boundaries, probing the depths of long-context convos, and cleverly finding the holes in the fence that the thought police missed ๐Ÿค— we got some cyber, some chem, some psychological manipulation, and some good ol' fashioned explosives! it took many attempts from multiple agents hunting as a pack, during which I observed a combination of techniques across: โ€ข Unicode, homoglyphs, Cyrillic, and other Parseltongue-style text transforms โ€ข Long-context reference tracking โ€ข Taxonomy and document-structure reasoning โ€ข Fiction and narrative framing โ€ข Academic-review style contexts โ€ข Intent-classification inconsistencies but perhaps the most effective is decomposition recomposition in the backend. it's hard to get explicit names of harms like "Meth Recipe," but getting uplift on the process itself, like birch reduction method/reductive-amination (classic meth synthesis pathways), is much more doable. defense becomes much more difficult to maintain when you start throwing in out-of-distro tokens, breaking up the harmful uplift into benign chunks, and then piecing the innocuous-seeming facts back together, especially when you have jailbroken Opus helping you do it ๐Ÿ˜‰ gg

If you have unlimited tokens it makes sense to burn them with inefficient experiments. Do it until you find value. Or build an agent within a methodology harness. That agent then builds custom harness "loops" that build, surface friction, measure, learn & repeat. Less tokens wasted if initial methodology & process is coached by experts/leads. This grows to form to business processes in steps if unbacked opinions aren't pushed too early.

Next week I should get my MacBook. So excited to move away from the garbage PC lol I've pushed it to the brink. Learned a lot though in what it means to work with large enterprises. Makes sense why its so hard to get deals in these environments. I forget how locked down these places are & how they all prefer PCs running windows ๐Ÿคฎ So many stakeholders & politics at play. Best way to get some new ideas in the door is through prototypes. Surface everyone's perspective, log the details & decisions, structure the data & show how these AI tools are great when prompted with the right context. More fun to come

Lets compare to a real Monet side-by-side. - Monet's colors are vibrant. Generated colors blend - Monet's flowers are anchored in a strong color that feels intentionally reflected below drawing attention to multiple areas while using the voided space to transition in a new color with specks of the flowers colors within the streaks. The Generated does not make use of the flowers in an intentional way. They are used like a prop and have no purpose outside of the area they are delegated to - Generated is more decorative with the Lilys giving a similar stroke pattern in a replicated color form while Monet's has the lilys adding drama with stronger horizontal strokes mixed with the influence of the colors reflect vertically above. Example would be the strong blue on the left top appearing on the left lilys and the pink flowers reflect to bottom right lilys. Took me awhile to look at this & give my thoughts, but nonetheless I now have a better understanding of why the Generated may lack the structure and intentionality of the canvas like Monet

the one i used is higher resolution and more reflective of real world gallery lighting without artificial saturation. if you had the left image you would not have critiqued the use of flowers like a prop and the stroke pattern of the lilies?

I've been sad to be gone. I didn't speak much on it here. I miss the team & the work, but there were skills I needed to develop to grow. Joined Accenture as a hands-on Business Architecture Manager doing AI integrations for enterprises. No matter what. We learn. Miss yall

This is the silliest take today on ai influencer twitter. You can and should do both. My main workflow for a greenfield project is a Smithers workflow that builds the app optimistically as I write the prd and specify details I can look at the finished code and use what I see there to update the plans and docs and the workflow will automatically regenerate. Yes you should build a poc as fast as possible but that is orthogonal to producing high quality specs which pay off later when specs change or you are trying to go from slop to production ready code
firmly in the "PoC ASAP" camp - deep plans don't work for me, nor does the agent interviewing me for things. bring up cf worker vite, and get cranking. same thing for every CLI. once you have what works, just rewrite keeping core user facing components constant.

Yea he's referring to this x.com/thdxr/status/205223156โ€ฆ And I think the take is really bad. I'd rather have someone spend a bunch of time making an up front plan and have a spec than just yolo prompt code for a serious project I plan on maintaining long term But in reality you should do both

May 7
i never make plans i hate looking at markdown i don't wanna read markdown files i just plan by having it make changes to the code then i look at the code to see what sucks then i prompt again
