AI is coming for us
Interesting (though long!) article from the Claude people. When AI builds itself \ Anthropic "AI systems themselves become capable of full recursive self-improvement, and begin building their successors. If technical trends in advancing capabilities continue, and AI systems are able to develop the capabilities inherent to transformative human ingenuity, then it is plausible that AI systems could design and refine themselves."

Aye - hadn't thought of it like that. After the passing of the late lamented Rembrandt I don't know he have anyone here who went to 58? I know Casino had meant to, but he had a 21st do that day.

Yeh, did both as well as all the others. Barry Knight sill haunts, but at least we knew we had the moral high ground (pitch invasion that was anything but friendly, while the bloke on the Tannoy taunted us. You'd think the FA would have done summat, but their Sheepshanks ruled that roost.....so no). Aldershot I remember the angry crowd in the car park "addressing" the board who were holed up in that suite at the Manny Road. Then some pillock lobbed a brick through the windscreen of the Aldershot team coach and the driver was being treated for schrapnel. "yeh" I thought, "there's me thinking it was all the fault of the board, the manager and the players. But no, the real culprit all along was the Aldershot team coach driver. Poor sod". I do remember trudging back to the bus station to get back to Howfen and thinking that as Burnley had just survived in the league by the skin of their sixth finger, that could be us next year. Fortunately, I was very wrong...

4 and 8 for me Even Reading, one of the greatest things ever in the end, was a fuck up really. Two down and a penalty coming up - at that stage you could repeat the game umpteen times and we'd not win.

Bradford City (A)
Didn't we play City at home in two consecutive league matches in one of the Prem seasons? So last game of one season and first of next?
