Gen-Zers, do you love AI slop? A video game executive has sparked a fierce debate surrounding the industry's widespread use of generative AI. @Futurism tells us more:

(Remember Richard Feynman's book about computing?
The one that put _energy_ at the center.
Written some 40 (forty) years ago.)
«In comments echoing those made by US Federal Reserve chairman Alan Greenspan in 1996, warning of "irrational exuberance" in the market well ahead of the dotcom crash, Mr Pichai said the industry can "overshoot" in investment cycles like this."
...
I expect AI to be the same. So I think it's both rational and there are elements of irrationality through a moment like this."
His comments follow a warning from Jamie Dimon, the boss of US bank JP Morgan, who told the BBC last month that investment in AI would pay off, but some of the money poured into the industry would "probably be lost".»
...
«However, he also warned about the "immense" energy needs of AI, which made up 1.5% of the world's electricity consumption last year, according to the International Energy Agency.»

Some LLMs have people wondering whether they are sentient. Semantics aside, they are programmed with prosociality in mind. Some project humanity.

What does AI really mean when it calls your ideas “thoughtful” or “fascinating”?
This video takes a transcript from Claude & Gemini and reveals their internal tags and reasoning while arguing about Platonism, constructivism, and pattern-seeking.
A bit philosophical, a bit technical, very fun.

Legendary AI scientist Yann LeCun is reportedly leaving Meta, and a Financial Times report suggests that he's going to found a startup based on "world models." @Gizmodo reports on what that means.

OpenAI is piloting group chat in ChatGPT, letting multiple users join one conversation. It’s already running in Japan, New Zealand, South Korea and Taiwan. Is this a cool idea? Learn more from @AxiosNews, including how the pilot works:
AI-powered toys? What could go wrong? “After testing three different toys powered by AI,” Frank Landymore writes, “researchers from the US Public Interest Research Group found that the playthings can easily verge into risky conversational territory for children, including telling them where to find knives in a kitchen and how to start a fire with matches.” It actually gets worse in one case.

I finally review the other Steve Grand book, "Creation," which is about how he made his video game "Creatures." Unlike Lucy, this project got finished, so it's more resolved and less speculative. The book still ends up in very philosophical territory. https://writerofminds.blogspot.com/2025/11/book-review-creation-life-and-how-to.html

A screenshot from the original Creatures game, obtained from old-games.com. It shows a cross-section of three floors of a large communal house, including a kitchen, some kind of mechanical room, and a computer room. Part of an outdoor environment with trees and sunflowers is also visible. There are three norns in view; two appear to be interacting, and one of these has a speech bubble up and is talking gibberish.

Watchdog group Public Citizen demands OpenAI withdraw AI video app Sora over deepfake dangers.
@AssociatedPress reports the nonprofit group argues that the app’s hasty release so that it could launch ahead of competitors shows a “consistent and dangerous pattern of OpenAI rushing to market with a product that is either inherently unsafe or lacking in needed guardrails.”
Don’t be surprised if you get a call from “Mindy” sometime soon. 1mind, a startup co-founded by Amanda Kahlow, has been quietly shipping its sales agent, named "Mindy," for about a year. On Monday, the startup announced a $30 million Series A round led by Battery Ventures. This brings 1mind’s total raise to $40 million, the company says. @Techcrunch has more, including how 1mind is differentiating itself in a crowded market:

AI systems that power modern life sure seem to be training on Wikipedia. But will the online encyclopedia embrace the technology itself? @sciencefocus spoke to Wikipedia founder Jimmy Wales to find out:

What jobs is AI actually replacing? Henley Wing Chiu, who blogs about enterprise tech at Bloomberry.com, analyzed 180M job postings to find out. He found that the job with the biggest decline is computer graphics artist, with photographer, journalist and writer high on the list too. Some of the shifts aren't to do with AI. At least three of the top 10 declining roles are in sustainability and compliance positions — symptomatic of the U.S. government's approach to regulation and the environment. Which jobs are on the up? Machine learning engineer and trade compliance specialist.

After signing deals to buy hundreds of billions of dollars in computing power from the chipmakers #Nvidia & #AMD & the #cloud #computing company #Oracle, #OpenAI has reached a multibillion-dollar agreement with #Amazon.
OpenAI said on Monday that it had agreed to purchase $38 billion in cloud computing services from Amazon over the next 7 years. The additional computing power will help OpenAI build & deploy its #ArtificialIntelligence technologies, including the #ChatGPT #chatbot.

In the midst of an unprecedented AI buildout, Meta is reportedly spending as much as $600 billion on U.S. infrastructure over the next three years. That's making Wall Street nervous. @Techcrunch explains:
Discussions of AI often lead me into a Derridean space – one in which I step back and examine the privilege of the subject. Unsurprisingly, humans privilege humans. Go figure. Hubris has this effect. As I am wont to do, I wrote about it.

In Acuitas news, I dust off episodic memory and try to unify it with the more recently developed narrative architectures. These open new possibilities for methods of summarizing, characterizing significance, and selectively forgetting memories.

Given that today's artificial intelligence is mostly trained on human mediocrity (and obsequiousness), I don't think it will surpass the best of human intelligence any time soon.
Or rule the world.

I decided to make some of the "text adventure" games I've been using with Acuitas (specifically, the Zoombinis-inspired ones) publicly available, just in case anyone else finds them interesting as a benchmark.

A screen shot of a round of the "Stone Cold Caves" puzzle from Logical Journey of the Zoombinis. Four caves with four paths leading up to them appear in a stony hillside; there are stunted little trees growing out of the rock crevices. Four piles of rock with eyes and the vague suggestion of faces sit at the junctions of each pair of paths. Zoombinis (round, blue creatures with dark blue hair, colorful noses, and various odd locomotion devices) are scattered inside three of the caves and on a patch of grass below the hillside.
Acuitas' Text Parser can finally (in theory) handle all the grammatical structures in the test sets! https://writerofminds.blogspot.com/2025/09/acuitas-diary-88-september-2025.html
