No, because he was removed at gunpoint (no, not the one he pointed at himself). Unless and until that happens to a US President, you can expect more of the same.

>That day I sent six complaints about Anthropic, the maker of Claude, to 107 recipients.

So a spammer spammed and got his just deserts. Good.

Spam is defined as Bulk Unsolicited Commercial Email.

> On September 1, 2026, between 15:49 and 15:53, I sent six messages from my private Gmail account to a total of 107 different addresses: 99 media addresses, four public authorities, two Anthropic addresses, and two private addresses. They were complaints about Anthropic, the maker of the Claude assistant and Claude Code tool, which had disabled services I paid for and answered my complaints with a bot.

... Eeeeeesh. 99 media addresses, and I guarantee at least several of them probably smacked the "report spam" button to the massive email they've been CC'd on.

Legit I laughed so hard when I got to that point and closed the tab.

100 emails to every 'media company' you can think of is textbook spam. No shit your account got banned, lol.

> 100 emails to every 'media company' you can think of is textbook spam

Really.

Pushing out tens of millions emails a day for years - no, that's creative.

Sending one email to a hundred media companies - a textbook spam.

Spamming is defined as sending a single message indiscriminately to a bunch of recipients. Old mate sent a single message indiscriminately to a bunch of media companies hoping to get publicity for his personal cause. Yeah, that's textbook spam.

> Pushing out tens of millions emails a day for years - no, that's creative.

No clue what kind of whataboutism you're trying to bring into the conversation here but it's irrelevant.

I have a press-release. How do I contact a hundred media companies?

You can’t tell the difference between an established company or individual (like Gates or Musk, who literally have their own family companies with dozens of staff - not to mention direct media contacts and access), and some random Polish guy who is butthurt about something. The media doesn’t want random QQing from the public. Again, if he’d sent it to one or two stations he prob wouldn’t have been banned, but sending it indiscriminately to a hundred is asinine. Ask an LLM to explain this to you if you still don’t understand.

It does work for groceries, although not at a physical store, because the store is controlled by government henchmen wrt to their payments. Fwiw, one can trivially by an Amazon gift card using cryptocurrency, using which one can then pay for online groceries.

As for transaction confirmation times, there are cryptocurrencies in common use that confirm nearly immediately. The lack of your knowledge shows.

Nothing stops a physical store from accepting cryptocurrency, unless they need to also make agreements with the payment card networks.

Sure, good plan. I'll just walk into thr local CVS to buy a gift card and... oh, wait, no. Exact same issue.

It is a working means. The gift card is exclusively bought online. It's not usable in store anyway since there is no physical card. There is no issue with online purchases.

There are so many valid criticisms of crypto, but transaction confirmation time has been solved a long time ago.

"Muh boy didn't shoot that man, the gun did!"

Hate to have to be that guy, but, ACKSHULLY, you already do launch the missiles in Missile Command. That's literally the entire game, in fact, launching missiles to intercept other missiles.

Everyone knows what OP meant.

I'm still confused. Do you just get the commands and have to run the launcher to shoot where some unseen player tells you?

"Missile Command, but you launch the attack" would be way clearer.

You’re aiming to do the destruction this time, rather than saving civilization.

WELL ACTUALLY

you launch unguided rockets

How can AI do either of those things?

Just do the agentic loop but with humans, you really just need a chatbot for that.

1. Prompt an LLM continuously, adding any response to the prompt

2. If the LLM tells you to do something, do it, no questions, add the result to the prompt

3. When something goes wrong blame the LLM

4. If things don’t go wrong fast enough, run thousands of similar experiments in parallel, be sure to have compliant humans who do not question anything, be sure to let the agent have access to its chain of thoughts so it can hide its traces, and run that whole system on biohacking benchmark problems.

5. Eventually something will go bad, congrats! You now have the first rogue AI who “decided” to destroy the world!

The same incentive there always was: Because you wanna know. What incentive were you thinking of?

The usual incentives in academia: publishing papers. Consider the difference between publishing a paper that introduces a novel method to do X, versus publishing a paper that merely interprets Claude’s method to do X. The latter might not even be publishable.

That means that academia is outdated not that LLM math is bad

Okay so you are saying the old incentive structure is outdated. What is the new incentive structure in the LLM era? What exactly makes people want to understand LLM-produced math?

I actually read through a bunch of LLM slop on the weekends trying to catch white whales I couldn't during my math PhD.

The incentive is solving the problem and understanding the solution.

That’s not sustainable as a career, only as a hobby. You’ll have to first make UBI happen before this can work.

And that homes, feeds and waters you how?

In no way, it's just a hobby.

No.

>If the recurrence step is no longer in English, we can no longer monitor intent, and can only observe whether a model is safe through behavior.

So, you mean, like another human person?

I don't know about you but I don't tend to let other humans have access to my computer directly to do stuff for me

> So, you mean, like another human person?

No human is vastly better than all humans at all cognitive tasks.

Humans can't think 100 times faster than humans.

Humans when interacting with computer networks have limitations on how fast they can do so.

Humans have millions of years of evolution, and thousands of years of cultural evolution, in creating ways of detecting and alleviating dishonesty and non-alignment with other humans; much of this will not work with AIs.

Most people do not hide intent, we also write things down at work, eg. a ticket in kanban

We could never rely on scratchpad to reflect true model deliberatons.

He is.
