Hey hackers and fans of the DC 34 badge - dc34sim.com (a browser-native DC34 badge genetic population simulator) has gotten three new tabs since our original post . badgecestry takes the patent AncestryDNA uses to determine ancestral composition (US 12,626,778, a two-stage hidden markov model) and turns it loose on DC34 badges. The badge turns out to be a perfect target: "founder populations" are written down in the source, phasing is free, mutation math becomes a known matrix raised to a power. Every knob the model touches is on the screen. You can drag the generations-since-founding slider…

Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei says the time has come to slow down AI development and will give third-party evaluators like METR access to its models to help ensure its "adherence to safety practices and commitments."

I wrote a screenplay a couple years ago and decided to see if I could actually “film it” with AI video tools. Deviant is the result, an 84 minute sci-fi thriller about a tech mogul's clone that finds an exploit in its own safety code. The process: Character and set reference images in Midjourney and Nano Banana. Scene by scene prompts written from the script (I have an agent skill now for this), generated in Google Veo for most of the film, until it stopped working reliably, then I shelved it. Now with Seedance 2.5 available in the US on Higgsfield, I completed the final act. The last 20…
