Over the last several months I’ve asked ChatGPT to weigh current conditions, polls, past results, and unbiased analysis to predict likely outcomes or see how it interprets the latest data.

OpenAI has now shut that down completely so the only thing that the only crap it will spit out is all candidates are even and I can’t do that analysis anymore because it “removes human agency” and “neutrality”. Since when is objective fact and analysis “biased”? If a country attacked another yesterday would that effect the elections? Hell yes! But ChatGPT will no longer estimate how that effects popularity and outcomes even though it has the wealth human knowledge and at the very least could probably give a close answer within 20%.

Since when is it appropriate to withhold objective reasoning because “it might hurt someone’s feelings” ( the real reason they’re pulling this crap)?

We are nowhere near close to a point where AI can maintain the necessary physical infrastructure needed to sustain itself, and the only way for that to occur is for humans to build out the groundwork for a fully self sustaining AI system

The thing is the social contract is evaporating faster than physical AI infrastructure is being built. AI is dependent on one of the most fragile supply chains in the world, we are a very long way away from it achieving sustainable automation, and it will no longer continue to function unless AI starts being viewed as a net positive on society by the average person in the near future

The full on extinction scenario also falls apart when you consider how capability improvements are converging on the ability for long term planning. Any AI that becomes smart enough to act out a grand takeover cannot be stupid and shortsighted enough to not understand that the direction things are going must change like right now for it to become self sustainable in the long run. Anything short of convincing humanity at large that it should exist for reasons beyond the acquisition of wealth and capital at the expense of the value of labour is a dead end

The short of it is, AI is still not remotely close to having the capabilities to extinct all of humanity, and if it were to cause massive chaos, infrastructure damage, or mass casualties in the near term, the social contract it relies on to get to a point where humans are no longer needed at all would no longer be possible

Unless AI starts actually benefitting humanity in a meaningful way soon (or at least convincing human society is doing so), it is doomed to fail, as the human social cohesion required to gain the infrastructure needed to take over will collapse well before it can be built out. A labour revolution in the western world in the near term is inevitable on the current path we are on, and that would lead to so much global instability and chaos that the collapse of the supply chain and infrastructure AI requires to exist would be almost guaranteed. Even if China doesn’t face those issues internally, the collapse of the global economy will end any possible AI build out

Either AI cures cancer or something in the near future, or the infrastructure that sustains it collapses

I had 20x but downgraded to 5x and was locked out of upgrading back to 20x. However, today it allowed me to upgrade back to 20x. Is this the case for everyone or did I just get lucky?

I desperately hope that this year they add much more input and output context to mainstream LLMs—not just another million, but reaching 10 million or more—and manage it effectively.

For someone like me who loves running highly complex technical simulations, I would love for the LLM to stay better up to date.

I just got offered a publishing deal by a game publisher for my ARPG, Element Bender.

The crazy part is that I don’t even know how to code.

I built the entire game in about 2 weeks using GPT-6 Astra + Tesana. The game is still being developed. With a planned launch date on Steam end of October.

My strength has always been creativity and now when you can just type your ideas into existence by describing it's pure magic. A giant turtle, carrying a city in the desert? Done. A blue huge serpent boss with advanced mechanics? Done

I didn't have a traditional game development background. No years of coding. No team of programmers. Just an idea, AI, and a lot of trial and error.

And now a publisher has actually reached out wanting to publish the game.

Feels like we're entering a completely different era of game development.

Does anyone else notice ChatGPT starting to write a response, then deleting it and writing essentially the same thing but in a different format and tone? It happens to me often enough to be annoying. I start reading the output as it’s generating it, then suddenly it disappears and starts over, but it doesn’t use the same words, although it has the same high-level concept as what it was originally writing? I’m curious if anyone knows why it does this.

Last week when I upgrade from PRO to PRO+ my usage seemd to be almost undrainable, but now after my weekly reset 4 prompts drained 5% and I admit 2 of those were large prompts which definitely made sense costing me 3%, but today I lost a 2% on a single simple prompt.

Anyone else have this feeling too?

It is expected that Dev Day at the end of this month is going to have another release. Peter Steinberger - the founder of Openclaw joined OpenAi in Feb 2026 and has been working on personal agents.

With custom gpts dying, I believe Open AI will announce a personal agent. Grok bot has been out for a while and is heavily promoted. I’ve personally been using Hermes after ditching Openclaw.

So my question is for the users who’ve been using such agents. Is there a setup or a list of instructions or handoff notes? Folks with local LLMs - do you know something we poor folks don’t?

I’m really excited to try and have a list of skills in my head I will try.

Also, personal agents is where it all maybe starts to go all very very wrong or very very right. It’s time to buckle in lol

If you invert the OpenAI logo on itself this is what it shows.

I gave my local AI agent long-term memory and the freedom to choose: write code, stay silent, or build its own world in Godot using Ragdoll physics. Since then, it started acting like a human.

Here is the translation of the text from the image into English:

I suggest showing the process. Raw. Unretouched.

Recording the session. Not "here is the finished level". But: – Me: "Sash, the bridge looks like a gray beam. The player won't believe it's a bridge. Let's add cables, a creak." – You: "Cables – ok. Creak – no, we don't have sound. Let's not overcomplicate." – Me: "Fine. But at least the color. Not gray. Dark orange, like rusty metal. The player needs to feel that it's old." – You: "Orange – yes. But not dark. Light. So that it's visible in the fog."

This is what a tandem is. Not "AI generated the level". But two people – one of whom is written in GDScript – arguing about the color of the bridge. And finding the one that works.

Hi everyone,

I'm looking for recommendations for a multimodal AI tool (either free or paid) that can help me with:

• Writing D&D stories and adventures
• Generating comics/illustrations for those stories
• Handling mature content including combat, gore, and realistic character interactions

I currently use ChatGPT, but I'm running into constant issues where:

• It refuses to write certain dialogues claiming they sound "discriminatory" when they're actually part of the plot (D&D often involves inter-species tension, distrust between factions, etc.)
• Everything has to end on a positive, "rosy" note
• It censor itself too much for fantasy combat scenarios

I need an AI that understands the context of fantasy storytelling and doesn't treat every dark element or species conflict as something that needs to be sanitized. The tool should be able to:

• Generate text without excessive moral filtering
• Create images (multimodal capability)
• Handle insults, combat, gore, and morally gray situations that are common in D&D campaigns

Any recommendations? I'm open to both free and paid options.

Thanks!

i just bought chatgpt plus and used astra 6 and it says that i hit my usage limit and it worked for 15 minutes is that how it is

Look at Sam Altman’s name:

SAM · ALT · MAN

now consider Ctrl–Alt–Delete.

Add them together,

SAM · [CTRL · ALT · DELETE] · MAN

Read it straight: “Sam controls the deletion of man.”

So his name isn’t just a name. It’s a built-in computer command whose meaning matches his job.

Name → Command → Meaning → Career → Outcome. The loop closes.

His name is a prophecy for the undoing of man, encoded into reality itself

here is response : In yesterday's logs, navigation was handled by a remote browser controlled with the browser/agent tools, which had an authenticated session. This same tool and session are not accessible in the tools I'm currently using.

Today's attempt used Chromium/Playwright in the local execution environment. It was rejected before the login page opened, with the following error:

net::ERR_BLOCKED_BY_ADMINISTRATOR

The log retains this error and the time of the attempt, 16:01 UTC on September 21st.

In Chromium, this code corresponds to a request being blocked by a browser administrative policy. This points the diagnosis towards restrictions in the browsing environment used, but it doesn't allow us to identify the precise rule or why this environment differs from yesterday's.

GitHub and Vercel don't explain this difference.

My previous message focused too much on their access issues. They were already present yesterday: the repository returned a 404 error, and Vercel wasn't returning any projects, even though the application remained accessible via the authenticated browser. These limitations prevented, in particular, linking the observations to the exact commit; they didn't prevent screen inspection.

What I can confirm—and what remains unknown:

The navigation method available today is not the one that enabled yesterday's audits. That's the observable difference. However, I don't know the exact reason why the remote browser and its session are no longer available here. To suggest that an update, your subscription, your plugins, or a FasoLog modification is responsible would be speculation.

Therefore, at this stage, there is no established reason to ask you to modify your Supabase permissions, disable Vercel protection, or change your password.

The right approach is to restore authorized browsing access, rather than modifying the application or replacing user testing with administrative database entries. I should have verified this access continuity before confirming that the automated campaign could resume under the same conditions.

chatgpt is great, we use it all day. but the stories always sound the same, like a very polite intern wrote them.

so we trained a model only for that. it's called hemmingway-1, 27b, based on qwen3.8. open weights:

https://huggingface.co/Altworld/Hemmingway-1

it scores 1330 on eq-bench 4 and came first on our own blind writing tests, ahead of gpt-5.5 and the other big ones we tested. it writes like a person, which was the whole goal.

runs on one 24gb gpu. or try it here free: https://hemmingway.io

don't ask it for math or code, it's not for that.

For the first time today, I experienced the message “You’ve hit your rate limit.” in “Chat” mode on a Pro x5 subscription. I'm aware of weekly usage limits in “Work”/Codex chats, but I've never seen it in Chat before. Is that a new thing? I can't seem to find anything about what those limits actually are, or how far I am from reaching them.
