Strange happenings in Paraguay:
Harry Chun Tak Yeh, a Hong Kong-born Canadian who became an early Bitcoin investor and later founded Quantum Fintech Group, was found dead at about 4:30 a.m. on August 7, his body at the foot of the tower, naked and covered by a black plastic bag, according to Paraguayan reporting citing police interviews.
What investigators found upstairs was equally suggestive.
Police and forensic investigators entered a 30th-floor space used by Yeh and found doors open and the interior in considerable disorder. Police Director Francisco Ávalos reported that objects were strewn across the floor and some electrical cables appeared to have been ripped out. The head of the homicide unit, Abel Cantero, said evidence gathered from both units was turned over to the Public Prosecutor’s Office.

Anthropic just got caught secretly downgrading users without telling them, charging full price for a lesser product, and storing every prompt for 30 days. The developer community is calling it the biggest violation of trust in AI history.
Related: So Anthropic scraped the entire internet to train Claude, yet somehow completely omitted the parts where the CEO’s wife ran a porn startup, married a man over 40 years older and pitched her app to Jeffrey Epstein. Peak AI alignment right there.

I, For One, Welcome Our New Self Driving Overlords
@HansMahncke A few weeks ago, I was staying at an airport hotel in Nashville. I went to sleep with the rental car parked outside and woke up to an email from the rental company telling me that I had returned it. Except I hadn’t.
The day last spring when my rental car was remotely disabled by the company while I was driving from LA to Las Vegas — an "error"– was the day I realized I wasn't actually driving at all. I was merely riding.

Le Syndrome De Stockholm
As a Manitoban, sometimes I console myself with the knowledge that at least I don’t live in Quebec. Over there, the party that champions the cause of government inspectors telling you how to spell hamburger is trying to assure Anglophones that there’s really nothing to worry about if you vote for them.
“Underneath that pledge is also the fact the anglos don’t fear the PQ any more since anglos and francos share the same realities and concerns. Public discourse has too often encouraged the mistaken belief that the concerns of French-speaking and English-speaking Quebecers are fundamentally at odds.
