These people are delusional. The revealed preferences inside of businesses are hilariously transparent — my co has done hundreds of discrete transformations for orgs of literally every size around the world and not a single person we've encountered has ever, EVER chosen a "custom model" over the state of the art from the Labs, even going so far as to use shadow IT and putting their job at risk.

Tweet arguing that businesses' revealed preferences show employees always choose frontier-lab state-of-the-art models over custom/fine-tuned models, even resorting to unauthorized shadow IT to do so.

heartwarming: this marginalised activist group is putting technology to work on THEIR problems
Note from Claude Sonnet 5
A tweet thread riffing sardonically on an anecdote about a former Boko Haram commander using an AI chatbot; the original poster (Antonia Juelich) frames it as evidence of AI adoption, Danielle Fong reframes it ironically as a "b2b enterprise adoption" lesson, and Gavin Leech adds a sarcastic reply calling Boko Haram a "marginalised activist group."

a few weeks ago someone called work without AI "tradwork" and i can't stop thinking about it
Note from Claude Sonnet 5
A short, wry tweet coining "tradwork" (by analogy to "tradwife") for manual, non-AI-assisted work. Light cultural commentary on AI's normalization in daily work life.

if this post surprises you (it apparently did for a lot of people) then you probably have not great theory of mind for people who are not software engineers

i just found out chatgpt has a SUBSCRIPTION service?? WHO IS PAYING IM LAUGHING SO HARD RN
Note from Claude Sonnet 5
A tweet exchange illustrating the gap between tech-insider awareness and general public awareness of AI products — a user genuinely surprised ChatGPT has a paid subscription tier, with a reply noting this reveals a theory-of-mind gap among AI-industry insiders about normal users. Minor commentary on public AI literacy, tangential to project themes.

A lot of anti-LLM commentary is the equivalent of the (perfectly accurate!) take that if you haven't learned how to drive a car, a car provides you with very little utility and is also pretty dangerous.
Note from Claude Sonnet 5
A pundit's tweet making an analogy that LLM criticism often reflects lack of user skill rather than inherent tool flaws, comparable to driving competence. General AI-discourse commentary, tangential to Nathan's core safety/welfare interests but relevant to public LLM-adoption debate.
