It is no derivate. It's just the tartrate salt of LSD. There is no pharmacological difference. It's like saying I got this new Magnesium Tartrate which is now different to the Magnesium Oxide / Citrate / Glycinate / whatever you are taking. It might affect stability or absorption rate or similar, but Tartrate itself doesn't have an effect.

It's just the tartrate salt of LSD. It isn't even a derivative of it. Does not have any other effects pharmacologically.

You might have replied to the wrong comment. OP implied it would have no impact

The joke is that Willie Nelson has used very high concentrations simultaneously frying his brain cells and staving off Alzheimer's.

Willie Nelson is pretty sharp for his age. I compare him to the much younger President of the United States who blathers absolute nonsense constantly despite no known history of cannabis use and a claimed history of abstaining from all substances.

> claimed history of abstaining from all substances

[rolls eyes]

lots of anecdotal evidence suggests donnie t like stimulants, esp. the kind that you can put up your nose.


I was laughing out loud at the absurdity. Oh I got laid off? Well, time to let my dog code computer games.


Funny how we now see AI go through developmental phases similar to what we see in young child development. In a weird convoluted way. Strawberry spelling and car wash aren't particularly intuitive as cognitive developmental stages.

E.g. well known mirror-test [1], passed by kids from age 1.5-2

Or object permanence [2], children knowing by age 2 that things that are not in sight do not disappear from existence.

Also strawberry spelling isn't any real test for current LLMs as they have no concept of letters, they work on tokens which may be several characters including punctuation and numerals. To have any hope of getting that question right tokens would have to have the granularity of individual letters, massively ballooning model size and training time, or the LLM needs to be able to call out to an external tool that will return the result (and needs sufficient examples in the training data to prime that trigger to fire).


While that's true, the tokenizer is half the problem. The important fault demonstrated is it doesn't _know_ it can't see the letters, and won't express this unless it has been trained or instructed to. "I can't see letters through the tokenizer" never appears in a corpus of human writing.


Enable reasoning effort and the results are completely different.


>Within weeks, Binance fired or suspended at least four employees involved in the investigation, according to the documents and three people with knowledge of the situation. The company cited issues such as “violations of company protocol” related to the handling of client data.


Wow, Grok directly switches to LinkedIn mode. Interesting - not surprising. Car washing? Easy as pie.


I find Grok's "personality" hilarious, it sounds like a buffed up "chad" who is hitting its 100 bench rep while not breaking a sweat.


The title had me cringing. "The Scott Shambaugh Story"

Is this the future we are bound for? Public shaming for non-compliance with endlessly scaling AI Agents? That's a new form of AI Doom.


in a sense, that's what politic discourse has already become.


It's literal, since 50% of the "discourse" on politics has been computer-generated by adversarial nation-state-actors for nearly 10 years now.


Ask any knowledgeable person on geo-politcs and they will indeed confirm. Nuance is killed by screaming bots, hugely helped by a huge mass of copying humans. A new breed of "judgers" makes these intelligent persons eventually give up, or end on semi-obscure podcasts... "You're either with us or against us, we cannot overlap interests." "Republicans are wrong on every single thing, we can't even sit a table with them anymore." Etc.


Hahaha awesome!
