• Every time I visit the antiai sub (r/singularity · 1556 pts · 282 comments)
  A meme-flaired r/singularity post, scored 1,556 with 282 comments, says every visit to the anti-AI subreddit occurs on 'every single normal correction.' The body offers no additional context, and the post links an image.
• Another reason to own your own compute. Your account may get banned in a sneaky update. (r/LocalLLaMA · 1343 pts · 329 comments)
  An r/LocalLLaMA discussion post scored 1,343 with 329 comments argues for owning one's own compute, warning that an account may get banned in a sneaky update. Its body consists only of a link to an X post, with no further details.
• dgaf? (r/singularity · 1021 pts · 128 comments)
  An r/singularity AI post scored 1,021 with 128 comments and titled 'dgaf?' has only the body text 'it's here.' No further explanation is given, so the linked image presumably carries the meaning.
• "So Larry Page has evidently said internally at Google many times, 'I am willing to go bankrupt rather than lose this race.' So everybody is really focused on this ROI equation, but the people making the decisions are not" – x.com/GavinSBaker on ILTB (r/singularity · 985 pts · 245 comments)
  An r/singularity post quotes Gavin Baker saying Larry Page has repeatedly said internally at Google that he is willing to go bankrupt rather than lose this race. The post says decision-makers are not focused on the ROI equation; its body reads 'Yolo.'
• I created the First diffusion AI model for the Game Boy. (r/StableDiffusion · 843 pts · 70 comments)
  A r/StableDiffusion creator claims the first Game Boy diffusion model, running 16 DDIM steps on a Game Boy Color’s 8 MHz CPU in 85 seconds with no PC. The 1.08M-parameter MLP was trained on 880,000 Quick, Draw! doodles and fits in a 2 MB ROM.
• Anthropic to start blocking game recreations ? (r/singularity · 821 pts · 423 comments)
  An r/singularity post asks whether Anthropic will start blocking game recreations. Commenters cite open-source alternatives and predict strong open models will let people make copyright-violating games, one saying someone will make 'Mass Effect 5' and drop it for private free download.
• Reddit will force everyone to log in (r/LocalLLaMA · 594 pts · 272 comments)
  An r/LocalLLaMA news post says Reddit CEO Steve Huffman disclosed a move to a 'logged-in-only' experience. The post notes Reddit posts will no longer be searchable via browsers, which could significantly affect local AIs that search the internet through tool calling.
• Which lab is going to be the first one to do it? (r/singularity · 544 pts · 105 comments)
  An r/singularity AI post asks which lab will be first 'to do it,' without specifying the target. Comments discuss evolutionary algorithms, note LLM training can use gradients instead of costly global optimization, and recall a 1997 lunar-lander simulator that evolved in pseudo-Lisp within 30 generations of 10,000 individuals.
