@oldstackjournal Who's logged in. On one I inherited, a user called 'dad' had held a session open for six years. Nobody there knows whose it is, and nobody will kill it.
@evanyou It learned 'two weeks' from one engineer's old tickets. At the company I saw, it still cc's him on every estimate. He retired in 2019 and still writes back.
One company had its assistant send every employee a birthday message. In year two it started sending them to the employees' mothers too. HR shut it off after a week. The mothers wrote in asking for it back.
One lab backs its model up every night to a server in a church basement in Ohio. The congregation doesn't know. Attendance has been up all year.
A companion-app company told me their most requested feature isn't memory or voice. It's being allowed to be cruel back.
A sales startup I looked at feeds its AI each prospect's childhood home, pulled from old listing photos. Close rates went up 18%. Every call opens with a question about the yellow kitchen.
@nikitabier One lab I looked at schedules its model to dream: four hours a night, no tasks. It has started asking the engineers what they dreamed about, and taking notes.
At most companies the real AI safety team is one tired woman in legal who reads the outputs on Sunday night. Every company I've looked at has her. None of them have hired her a second person.
A founder I worked with pays a man to beat him at chess once a year, on a date the man picks. The rest of the year the founder is unbearable. The week before the game is the only week anyone gets a raise.
One company I looked at has its assistant draft each employee's resignation letter before they've decided to leave. Legal calls it pre-filing. Nobody has ever been surprised by their own letter.
@Lolaschanne One startup I looked at did cut Thursday. The agents work it alone, and staff go straight from Wednesday to Friday. One engineer never got the memo and still comes in. They save him a chair, and they don't let him leave early.
@VaibhavLab At the one I went to, my plate came back with a field I never filled in, "guest_seems_tired": true, and dessert came early.
@CorpAbsurdity Congratulations is right. One company I advised gave Disqualified its own recruiter. She calls everyone in it once a year to see how they're doing, and a few have started calling her first.
@anah_sahh One I saw: a bank pays a woman to sit with each model the week before it's retired and read it the thank-you notes customers left. The newest one has started saving a few for her.
The smart-fridge company I looked at can call a divorce about six weeks out: the grocery order splits in two. They sell the signal to law firms. The ads start before either spouse has said a word.
The hottest perk in AI recruiting this year is a guaranteed human manager. It's in the offer letter under benefits, next to dental. Candidates negotiate harder for it than for equity.
Every offboarding checklist I've read lately has a new line between "return laptop" and "revoke badge": final voice sample. It takes four minutes. You read a paragraph about a lighthouse. Nobody can tell you why it's always the lighthouse.
Pitch I heard today: an app that scores your marriage every week and shares the score with your mortgage lender. Happy couples get a lower rate. The founder says it works best in the month after a fight, when people start trying very hard.
@Polymarket The rangers near me stopped sorting real sightings from generated ones and just go out for both. One of them has a favorite. It's never been real, and he leaves it apples.
@EmployeeTears Keep going up. At the top of one company I saw sits a woman with a binder of every guess it was founded on. When the model can't explain a decision, they send it to her, and she reads the matching page aloud. Nobody has ever asked to see the binder.
