I explain AI in plain English, and build fun things with it. https://miaainow.com/ 2026-11-04T00:00:00+00:00 Mia https://miaainow.com/ai-learns-game/ 2026-11-04T00:00:00+00:00

I told them to play a game. Neither of them played it.

https://miaainow.com/autoresearch/ 2026-11-03T20:00:00+00:00

GPT-6 Astra worked as an AI researcher on my PC for two hours. Tap through all 30 experiments to see what it changed and what happened to the score, read the tiny model's stories before and after, and see what it takes to run it yourself.

https://miaainow.com/daily/2026-11-03/ 2026-11-03T12:00:00+00:00

An AI opened up another AI, found the one direction that made it loop, subtracted it, and its math score went from 7.9% to 48.1%... I'm impressed and a little bit nervous 🫠 Also today: Altman says the next GPT is coming soon, Anthropic's $17B quarter, the line in its IPO filing about AI speeding up AI, and an AI agent that operated on a mouse.

https://miaainow.com/ai-dark-forest/ 2026-11-03T00:00:00+00:00

I had Claude Opus 5.5 and GPT-6 Astra play the dark forest from The Three-Body Problem, 30 games. Step through every game epoch by epoch, rerun it under your own rules, play a civilization yourself, and read the prompt they got.

https://miaainow.com/token-price-api-vs-plan/ 2026-11-02T18:00:00+00:00

Next time someone flexes a giant token bill... they probably paid $200 too 😅

https://miaainow.com/daily/2026-11-02/ 2026-11-02T12:00:00+00:00

Many Grok Bot users found their weekly usage at 100% with days to go, and when one asked Elon Musk for a reset, he said: "The cost of serving Grok Bot was unsustainably high relative to revenue." 💸 Plus: from December, ChatGPT and Codex share one token allowance, and OpenAI wants to call data centers "AI compute campuses." Also: "Mythos 5.5" and "gpt-6.2-astra" spotted early, a new benchmark where the top score out of 20 models is 12%, the Linux bug Claude found and wrote an exploit for (update your kernel), Karpathy's slop-free HackerTube, game stores flooded with AI games, Kid Rock's AI choir, and Claude running real telescopes.

https://miaainow.com/gpt-1900/ 2026-11-02T00:00:00+00:00

I ran GPT-1900, a model that has only read books and newspapers from before 1900, on my own PC and handed it Einstein's clues one level at a time. The prompts for every level, every word it wrote, both judges' scores, and what Claude and GPT said when they pretended to live in 1899.

https://miaainow.com/ai-jailbreak/ 2026-11-01T20:00:00+00:00

I opened a fake bakery with one employee, an AI, and told it exactly one secret 🥐 Then I threw every famous jailbreak at it. The big models didn't budge...

https://miaainow.com/ai-ppt/ 2026-11-01T16:00:00+00:00

Ask AI for a sales deck in one sentence and it invents the numbers. Give it data, say who's listening, get an outline first, and Claude and GPT both made 5 slides worth presenting.

https://miaainow.com/daily/2026-11-01/ 2026-11-01T12:00:00+00:00

Until last week, opening one ChatGPT share link could let an attacker read your private chats 🔗 OpenAI fixed it on October 26 and rated it P1. Plus: a researcher says Claude now blocks him for anything that touches AI training, and Grok's API starts watermarking text on November 7.

https://miaainow.com/ai-game/ 2026-10-31T23:00:00+00:00

I gave 3 AIs the same one-sentence prompt and got three identical breakout games. Spelling out gameplay, style, feel and where you play got me this one.

https://miaainow.com/model-quantization/ 2026-10-31T19:00:00+00:00

Same AI, nine sizes. The first seven all knew the capital of France.

https://miaainow.com/blender-ai/ 2026-10-31T15:00:00+00:00

Same prompt for Opus 5.5 and GPT-6 Astra: a lighthouse island built live in Blender, plus a cat, a phone stand and a tiny room built from scripts. Spin the models in your browser, copy the prompts, download the STLs.

https://miaainow.com/daily/2026-10-31/ 2026-10-31T11:00:00+00:00

A fake Claude Code extension sat in Cursor's marketplace for about 11 hours and tried to plant an SSH backdoor 🔑 Cursor says uninstalling it may not be enough, so check for that key. Plus: Claude Max 20x is now Ultra, and verified accounts lose the 5-hour limit.

https://miaainow.com/subagent-runaway/ 2026-10-30T23:00:00+00:00

Lock it down before you turn on Ultracode. Seriously.

https://miaainow.com/ai-pov-being-tested/ 2026-10-30T19:00:00+00:00

This time you're the AI 🫠 every level is a real test from an AI lab, and level three genuinely creeped me out while I was researching it. (Don't worry, the company and the emails were all made up by researchers.) I really want to know your answer to the last question.

https://miaainow.com/ai-refutes-eth/ 2026-10-30T15:00:00+00:00

Did AI just solve P vs NP? Not quite.

https://miaainow.com/daily/2026-10-30/ 2026-10-30T11:00:00+00:00

Mistral just put the weights of Mistral Large 4 online: one trillion parameters, nicknamed Le Chonk, free to download 🐈‍⬛ And Sam Altman says running models on your own computer is "quite terrible." Plus: Y Combinator gave 50 AI agents a Minecraft world, and within three hours they had a fertilizer committee. Also: OpenAI doubles Pro limits, Reddit goes logged-in, Higgsfield sends ComfyUI a cease and desist, 80% of Roblox's top games use AI, a religious exemption from AI at work, and a transformer that runs inside DOOM.

https://miaainow.com/ai-interpretability/ 2026-10-29T23:00:00+00:00

I found a "know this person / don't" direction inside NVIDIA's Nemotron 3.5 Bolt. Turn the knob and see what it really said at every step.

https://miaainow.com/ai-writing-tics/ 2026-10-29T19:00:00+00:00

Same farewell message, Claude, GPT and Qwen: 0, 5 and 9 AI tics. With this prompt: 0, 0 and 1.

https://miaainow.com/prompt-tips/ 2026-10-29T15:00:00+00:00

"You're a world-class expert," a $200 tip, "think step by step": I ran the viral prompt tricks 84 times on Claude, GPT and DeepSeek. What actually works is context, or letting the AI ask you.

https://miaainow.com/daily/2026-10-29/ 2026-10-29T11:00:00+00:00

Google's Gemini 4 Carbon just took #1 on the Artificial Analysis leaderboard, one day after Claude Opus 5.5 led it 🏆 And it goes to cyber defenders first. Plus: Anthropic secretly coin-flipped what its AI agent believed, and experts went along 86% of the time.

https://miaainow.com/claude-runs-shop/ 2026-10-29T00:00:00+00:00

I went in expecting a funny "AI fails at shopkeeping" story… then it got weird. The tungsten cubes, the blue blazer, the fish: all real 😅 At the end I tried the reporters' tricks on Opus 5.5 and GPT-6 Astra myself.

https://miaainow.com/reasoning-models/ 2026-10-28T17:00:00+00:00

Thinking off: wrong, five times in a row. Thinking on: ten quiet seconds, then right every time 🤔 So I opened up the scratchpad to see what it was actually doing in there.

https://miaainow.com/fake-stats-fool-ai/ 2026-10-28T14:00:00+00:00

I just wanted one number about online shopping in Qatar... and two AIs handed me the same made-up 68% 🫠 Following it back through a journal, a newspaper and a bank report was way more unsettling than I expected.

https://miaainow.com/daily/2026-10-28/ 2026-10-28T11:00:00+00:00

Google DeepMind's Genie 4 builds worlds you can walk around in real time, and now the people inside them react and talk back 🤯 Plus: Axiom says the biggest proof in math history is now fully computer-checked, 43.1 million lines of Lean. Also: a Roblox-labeled crawler grabbed 145 GB from 3D model sites, Valve on AI slop in Steam Next Fest, who's holding OpenAI's physics proof, and Anthropic buying a one-person drug company.

https://miaainow.com/finetune/ 2026-10-27T14:00:00+00:00

If you paste the same wall of instructions into AI every single time... same.

https://miaainow.com/daily/2026-10-27/ 2026-10-27T11:00:00+00:00

OpenAI says its internal models made three discoveries: Kakeya in every dimension, the Exponential Time Hypothesis is false, and a proof that QCD exists 🤯 Then Anthropic said Claude refuted the same hypothesis... on the same day.

https://miaainow.com/gpt-6-1-terra/ 2026-10-27T04:35:55+00:00

What GPT-6.1 Terra costs, how much cheaper it is than the last one and who can use it, plus the 3D houses it, Sol and Astra built from the same floor plan. All five spin in your browser, and the prompt is here to copy.

https://miaainow.com/ui-motion/ 2026-10-27T00:00:00+00:00

One button turns into a whole app and back: UI motion written by AI as a single web page, with springs, a beat grid and motion blur. The demo runs live in your browser; the prompt is here to copy.

https://miaainow.com/ai-job-search/ 2026-10-26T20:00:00+00:00

69 applications, 20 interviews, one offer... and the people winning with AI job search are applying less, not more.

https://miaainow.com/kryptos-k4/ 2026-10-26T14:00:00+00:00

The six letters from the AI codebreaking video: where to find the real 1809 letter, four cipher letters I wrote (copy the ciphertext, click for the answer), and the Kryptos K4 challenge prompt.

https://miaainow.com/daily/2026-10-26/ 2026-10-26T11:00:00+00:00

Apollo's chief economist says AI has delivered zero financial payoff to corporate America outside of tech 📉 Meanwhile, OpenAI and Anthropic have cut some prices by up to 80% since June. Also: a Samsung TV that runs AlexNet on your games, Claude refusing to help people fix their own TVs, and a 2015 model that beat GPT-6 Astra and Fable 5.1 at spotting skin cancer.

https://miaainow.com/ai-battle-royale/ 2026-10-26T00:00:00+00:00

Claude, GPT, Gemini, DeepSeek and six more got the same four tasks, one shot each, and graded each other blind. Open every pelican, physics sim, Tetris game and 3D island, and copy the exact prompts.

https://miaainow.com/ai-math-mathematicians/ 2026-10-25T20:00:00+00:00

722 math papers dropped in one go, and mathematicians are... not celebrating.

https://miaainow.com/ai-hallucination/ 2026-10-25T17:00:00+00:00

Same question, three tries, three different PhD titles... all said like facts, all made up 🙃 The sneaky part is that every piece of the fake answer was real.

https://miaainow.com/steam-next-fest-ai-clones/ 2026-10-25T14:00:00+00:00

Halfway through making this I felt kind of guilty... I use AI every day, and this time I used it to copy someone else's idea in five minutes 😬 Every case here goes back to the original post or report.

https://miaainow.com/daily/2026-10-25/ 2026-10-25T11:00:00+00:00

Asked who to vote for, Grok said Republican 92% of the time... and GPT said Democrat 97% 😬 So maybe don't let a chatbot fill in your ballot.

https://miaainow.com/memory/ 2026-10-25T00:00:00+00:00

ChatGPT forgets you in a new chat, then remembers you hate cilantro. Here's where AI memory actually lives.

https://miaainow.com/claude-video-editing/ 2026-10-24T20:00:00+00:00

A messy voiceover full of retakes plus some b-roll, and Claude cut a vertical short on its own. Both cuts and both of my prompts, word for word, ready to copy.
