Has GPT Astra degraded since release ? I ran the "Ana de Armas" portrait as SVG on GPT Astra x-high - comparing it with Astra from release day and the Qwen3.8-27B open source model. There is a degradation but it's subtle: * The hairline was flawless, and is now flawed a little. * The eyes were well proportioned but now look a little less realistic. * The face was awesome, now it is elongated. * The earrings were perfectly placed, now they are a bit off. * Release-Astra played with shadows, Now-Astra doesn't Astra today looks to me like a high quality quantization, or kv-quantization. It's very close to before, just not really there - and always worse, not better. Qwen 3.8 is still amazing, it beats every other model except for Astra and Fable 5 in this test. And Qwen is not that far away from them. I tested this with other models, including Gemini, SOL and more - none of them are even close to those 3. Photo included only as reference, the AI models did not see the photo.

We are in the first 3 years of AI investments, the railroad took 2 decades to reach that spending.
There's never been an investment like the investment in railroads. (This graph has a log scale!)

As a prime example, got moderated and my appeal turned down. My comment was about Finland planing to mass deploy land mines, which result in 94% civilian casualties, 49% children. Grok immediately said that my comment is fine, it called it “humanitarian”. X moderation Karen’s say it’s a call to or glorification of violence. Fuck this incompetent moderation

⁦⁦@elonmusk⁩ how is that violent illegal speech ? That was a comment on Finland exiting deals that restrict placing land mines. And the victims of land mines is children losing their little feet. Your platform is censoring like in Twitter Covid times

Everything is fine. You might want to apologize as a decent human being. The fingers are fine, limbs are find, the background is fine. The only strange part was the chair and table, that's because it's a special combination of table-chair.

Russia vs Ukraine Daily launches of any type of drone and any type of ballistic missile for past 90 days

Russias daily launch capability of Drones and Missiles (any type) Drones are at 400 drones per day. This means we will likely see volleys of overwhelming strength this year. By end of 2025 12,000 drones and 1200 missiles might be prepared for volleys.

Russia vs Ukraine - Stockpile estimation Russia today mathematically holds a stockpile of 4000 drones and 450 ballistic missiles (of types used against Ukraine). There might be an additional strategic reserve but these numbers are readily available for use.

Look at Hiroshima today you muppet. That’s what happens under good leadership. Maybe Israel and US can rule Gaza to become like this?

Your response is grossly off topic. As every single one of your graphs is years outdated. Milei was elected in 2023 and your stuff is mostly about 2021. I specifically mentioned the miraculous increases they managed since his election. Far ahead of Moldovia now.

Multi-step AI enhanced image of the guy who murdered Charlie Kirk. The shirt is quite rare. Due to the low quality originals there might be mistakes.

Trump accuses Zelensky of gambling with WW3, however it was the US that started this. First a deadly coup to become "pro western", then NATO membership suggestions and NATO contracts were made. Ukraine was pushed into this nightmare to hurt Russia. And the US directed it.

Zelensky: "Russia does not want to stop, they use ballistic missiles now to demonstrate that" Others say Russia uses those type to show they are willing and capable to go nuclear if no peaceful solution is found. What do you think it means?

Zelensky on "The rule of war" He says "For centuries the rule of war is that the one who starts a war has to pay for all reconstruction of the country". Others might say that's the rule for those losing a war. What do you think, a viable term for peace ?

Zelensky on making peace with "the killer, the terrorist": "of course we make no compromises about our territory" Good plan to peace, what do you think ?

One might argue that the reputational damage of UNRWA staff killing Jews on October 7 and other staff holding hostages is already absolute.
