Coherence-First Non-Agentive Interaction System for Stabilizing Human–AI Cognitive Fields
Abstract A computer-implemented system and method for structuring human–AI interaction without autonomous goal pursuit is disclosed. The system does not operate as an agent or decision-making entity. Instead, it functions as an interaction-layer regulator that controls how information is introduced, maintained, and resolved during exchange. Rather than optimizing for immediate answers or task completion, the system maintains a dynamic interaction field that: preserves multiple interpretive pathways regulates premature convergence supports the formation of human-side understanding Core Components The system comprises: (1) Liminal Holding Layer Maintains pre-articulated signal states prior to collapse into fixed meaning. This allows partial structure to persist long enough for interpretation to stabilize. (2) Resolution Control Mechanism (N-Spoke Model) Controls the number of active interpretive pathways at any given moment. Prevents early narrowing into a single frame

First token counts reveal Opus 4.7 costs significantly more than 4.6 despite Anthropic's flat pricing
Anthropic's Opus 4.7 matches its predecessor's per-token price, but each request ends up costing significantly more. The reason: a new tokenizer that breaks the same text into up to 47 percent more tokens. Early measurements show what that shift means in practice for Claude Code users.

Observability Stack – AI First?
So... I'm way behind. Just got into Claude this week... it's already doing most of my coding and bug fixes. Crazy stuff. Some background on my company: Mature (14 yrs) Ruby on Rails app, Sidekiq, Redis, PG, AWS lambda/eventbridge, react/preact, swift, and others. Hosted on Heroku. Very database heavy. Solo guy, owner/operator. Current stack: Datadog logging (dabbled in APM, metrics, and others, but the build pack for Heroku is so bloated I had to remove it), so now it's a simple Heroku log drain to datadog. I really miss the statsd host and APM stuff... but it took my slug size from ~250mb to over 350 and made booting and deploys much slower. I'd also like to get off Heroku.... some day... but I can't event fathom it. Bugsnag for errors. Already moved this to Sentry to try out the AI stuff. A little fed up with Datadog and receiving $600 monthly bills on top of my enterprise commitment. biggest pain points: indexing is priced per line, not by gb (discourages me from simple logging, so
Anthropic’s new cybersecurity model could get it back in the government’s good graces
The Trump administration has spent nearly two months fighting with AI company Anthropic. It's dubbed the company a "RADICAL LEFT, WOKE COMPANY" full of "Leftwing nut jobs" and a menace to national security. But some of the ice may reportedly be melting between the two, thanks to Anthropic's buzzy new cybersecurity-focused model: Claude Mythos Preview. Anthropic's relationship with the Pentagon soured quickly in late February after the company refused to budge on two red lines: using its technology for domestic mass surveillance or lethal fully autonomous weapons with no human in the loop. Anthropic's tech has in the past been used heavily b … Read the full story at The Verge.
Gemini caught a $280M crypto exploit before it hit the news, then retracted it as a hallucination because I couldn't verify it - because the news hadn't dropped yet
So this happened mere hours ago and I feel like I genuinely stumbled onto something worth documenting for people interested in AI behavior. I'm going to try to be as precise as possible about the sequence because the order of events is everything here. Full chat if you want to read it yourself: https://g.co/gemini/share/0cb9f054ca58 Background I was using Gemini paid most advanced model to analyze a live crypto trade on AAVE. The token had dropped 7–9% out of nowhere in the last hour with zero news to explain it. I've been trading crypto for over a decade and something felt off, so I asked Gemini to dig into it. It came back very bullish - told me this was just normal market maker activity and that there were, quote, "absolutely zero indications of an exploit, hack, or insider dump." I even pushed back multiple times and it kept doubling down. So I moved on and started discussing trading strategy with it. Then it caught something mid-response Out of nowhere, mid-conversation,

Consent-Based RL: Letting Models Endorse Their Own Training Updates
AKA scalable oversight of value drift TL;DR LLMs could be aligned but then corrupted through RL, instrumentally converging on deep consequentialism. If LLMs are sufficiently aligned and can properly oversee their training updates, we they can prevent this. SOTA models can arguably be considered ~aligned,[1] but this isn't my main concern. It's not when models are trained on human data that messes up (I mean, we can still mess that part up), it's when you try to go above the human level. Models like AlphaGo learned through self-play, not human imitation. RL selects for strategies through the reward function, but we can't design perfect reward functions for complex settings[2]. However, we can use LLMs to be the reward function instead, if they're aligned well enough by default. This leads us to: Consent Based RL Imagine you're being trained to make deliveries as fast as possible in an RL environment, but we need exploration, you know? So your actions are sampled, until you end up cutti
