elsewhere, like YT and substacks, better trained, more attuned observers of the AI transition keep watch. They point out success along with extreme disasters of AIgents breaking software…

i’ve tried all of the free, ready access models by interacting over a few topics of long pervasive interst to my life; even to my livelihood . of such long interest that my shelves on the topics spill across rooms.

anyhow — the following is from last night:

['formula tanning developers' was my question. ] 

GPT-5.4 :
**Clarifying tanning questions**

>>> I need to clarify the user's question; they likely want to know about tanning lotion. Could they also be asking about "tanning accelerators" or developers involved in tanning chemistry? The phrasing is vague. Maybe I should use a web search to gather more information?

-- the least likely thing i would ask is precisely what the swe'ionaires trained their answermac'hine would gradient high in human needs, curiosities.

>>> Clarifying developer formulas**

I see there was some confusion earlier. The user originally asked for a tanning developer, but now they're referencing a darkroom developer. It seems I need to focus on providing a photo developer formula. To give the best advice, I should ask about the film type and specific developer chemistry. I think my go-to option will be the D-76 formula,

-- wonder how much we are paying this researcher?
-- can I get my librarian back?

me: you are looping. not all photo chems tan. none of your answers are correct

>>
I apologize. I was treating the word "tanning" as a mistake or a reference to leather, rather than the specific chemical property of certain film developers. 

— it’s likely that they use a bot to determine their compensation package . presently there is a listing for a chemistry researcher in San Francisco: pay to be $65-$85,000 a year.

Dockworkers make $115k. I wonder who’s going to show up for the chemistry interview?
