The author rounds up several items: Astra's edited version fixed the model's looping by changing only 0.016% of the weights, which the authors call very early work. On markets, the Nasdaq 100 fell 6.3% Thursday, wiping out roughly $2.3 trillion, with NBC attributing the drop to weak Qualcomm and Arm earnings, compounded by anti-AI election wins. Also included: prediction-market checks — "agents barely order on DoorDash" confirmed by a CEO ✅, "Claude won't build games" applies to remakes only ❌, and "Anthropic is about to hit RSI" — not with today's models ⚠️.
