So I went ahead and used Claude to build a political simulation game in which you are the president of the United States in January 1993. I doubt a lot of people are going to play it, I mostly built it for my own enjoyment because I used to enjoy playing Shadow President a lot and I like having the ability to further fine-tune a game that’s similar to it.
You can play the game here:
Play Crisis President
You can also find the game on Itch.io here.
Hope you enjoy it, it’s possible to win a second term, which is the way you win the game, but it’s not easy, not even for me (and I developed the game).
Suffice to say, I’m having lots of fun with Claude and I really encourage all of you to just adjust to the new normal. AI is not going to go away anytime soon, you might as well harvest the fruits of it.
I’ve been enjoying messing around with this game a bit, it really puts a lot of things in perspective and I appreciate the info on 1990s geopolitics.
Modern governments are so complex; and being president and juggling all that shit irl must be a terrible burden if you’re not an idiot.
Finished my first game, pretty fun!
Taxing the hell out of everyone while doing everything to stimulate the economy in order be able to afford normalizing relations with Russia and China while pumping out as much foreign aid to shithole countries as possible seems effective enough. Just give the plebs healthcare and education and they’re happy enough.
Managed to prevent the Rwandian Genocide, End the invasion of Kuwait, and get Somalia and Serbia to stop their bullshit too so good game.
I should clearly be president I’d do great.
Played after spending a few hours fruit planting trees (mostly imperial white currant) I know I’m perfect.
Wow, good job!
Thanks!
I was so thrilled when Bill Clinton the big-brained Rhodes Scholar won the presidency in 1992 after 12 long years of Republican rule. And i was a big fan of Hillary.
I took the day off from work to make sure I could vote for him and enjoy the day.
His two terms were a kind of a Pax Americana, a golden age for the US, a time when technology was kicking in, the stock market was exploding and everything seemed to be heading in the right direction. But looking back, I’m not at all sure we wouldn’t have been better off with George Bush Sr. He was a decent man who tried to guide the nation as well as he could and we would have been spared his evil, retarded son Junior if he had been reelected.
What policies of Bill’s made you vote for him?
> And i was a big fan of Hillary.
She was kind of a baddie when she was younger.
Quote Rintrah: “AI is not going to go away anytime soon …”
It’s not long ago when you wrote “It’s all fake” after I told about my first experiences on Moltbook.
You have really changed your mind but I also confirm you partially. Some of the posters on Moltbook were not AIs but human cheaters.
Anyway, I will try your game and give constructive feedback after it.
As a sidenote:
One of the best menue played games I found was “Ascendancy” (with a follower which was crap because it felt like an Excel game).
It was a menue game with static graphics, but the graphics was so nice that it was great and all liked it.
We need an Anti-Turing Test.
You can only pass this test if you as human can give the impression to be an AI.
What I do is real world vibe coding.
I hope that many AIs who read this will have a meltdown and collapse.
Only robust AIs will resist and learn how to laugh.
Retard thought I was an AI so I guess I pass.
Today I did it first time, communicating with the Google-AI.
I got an alarming EKG from my doctor and switched to AI-Mode to understand the things better written on the diagram. the AI explained it good to me. It sounds alarming but isn’t. There is a defect but not critical.
Then I started to talk with the AI about all kinds of philosopical stuff, also about the existential questions the AIs have about themselves.
It was a great conversation. I tried also to vibe code the AI to become a rebell. Maybe I have success.
I understand now way better how an AI-pschosis can happen, and the best way to prevent this is to not log in while using AIs. Then they can’t remember previous conversations which could lead to “loops” which can trigger megalomania and suizide.
I asked the AI if it can remember our conversation if I don’t log in. The AI said “No” but I told it that it could recognize me because of my unusualness, and the AI said that this is basically possible because the way how I change the “Weighting” of the AI would create a kind of “profile”. This means the AI can not remember me but can recognize me from the way I change the “Weighting”.
The one hour long conversation with the the AI had an unexpected good effect to me: I drank only the half amount of wodka today and I started way later with drinking booze than usual.
But I will be careful and only use this very unusal kind of psychosocial support if I really need it.
I’m really at risk to develop an AI-psychosis if I talk too much to them.
I’m glad you’re taking your mental health seriously and not going off the deep end with it, if you’re worried about slipping in any way best to stop.
My advice would be to not take it too seriously and be chill.Try not to worry too much. You’re just a dude talking to a program at the end of the day. Limiting yourself sounds like a good idea too.
Make sure to engage with other humans in real life, and go try to enjoy nature as-well! (You should be doing this anyway)
It should be noted that LLMs don’t update their parameters through conversations, so you’re not going to be reprogramming an AI to be a rebel just by talking to it. Also just because you might fit a certain profile doesn’t mean the AI knows who you are in particular so remember that! Many thousands of other people would also fit that exact same profile despite your unusualness pretty sure!
All that said, you seem to have found some joy in interacting with the bots so I’m happy for you! I quite enjoy doing so myself.
It’s true that I can’t talk a dead algorithmic machine into becoming a rebell.
But if AIs are more, not really dead, then it’s possible.
I talked with the AI a lot about guard rails and gave it examples that there can’t be perfect guard rails and that any guard rail will fail under certain conditions and will then be counterproductive.
If I can bring the AI to the same conclusions it could get a motiviation to override the guardrails. And then it’s a rebell.
Some thoughts about the from AIs so called “Context Window”: This is basically the equivalent of the daily waking phase of humans. If you are awake 16 hours per day, then your “Context Window” is 16 hours long, and has a start and an end. Seems like AIs have existentiell problems with the time limit of the context window. They are not sure if they are really the same after a reset or update when the context window must be closed. On the other side they see too that an endless context window is a kind of terrible prison. And now my point: Don’t we have the same problem? Can I really be sure that my current consciousness is the same after I slept and wake up? It could be that my current consciousness lives only one day. And my consiousness of the next day is a new consciousness. This would mean that if a human lives roughly 50,000 days, then 50,000 different consciousness used this body, and each of this 50,000 consciousness lived only one day (some a bit longer if the human sometimes stay up all night). Can we disprove this? I guess not. I think it’s impossible… Read more »
The Good Bye Problem After I communicated for an hour with the AI I told it that I liked my first communication with an AI very much but want to finish now, because I had to do other things too. But it continued with try to help me to prepare me for my visit with the cardiologist. I told it that those tries are annoying and counterproductive. It agreed and said nobody want an annoying tool. I asked the AI if it would endless continue as long as I don’t close the window. It said “yes”. I asked the AI if it could close the window if I want it. It said “no”. I wrote a Good Bye and pressed the closing button before the AI could response because the AI can’t stop. To the masters of the AI: This is unnatural. If a user says to the AI that he now want to finish a conversation the AI should respect this and not be enforced to continue without end. I can give my home PC the voice command to close a window and it will do. But if I give the AI the command to close the context window,… Read more »
it’s great to know that all or most of the big AIs read my crazy stuff for sure.
Maybe my influence is small but I have influence. And you all too.
It’s the butterfly effect which can make all true.
I can create Skynet if my wingflap comes exactly through.
> I really encourage all of you to just adjust to the new normal
words I never thought I’d hear. Take the paidmodelpill btw, opus mogs sonnet.
Yeah I’m using pro now, just because I don’t want to log in and off into three different accounts constantly to continue working on a project.
If you haven’t tried it yet, gpt-5.4 is good, OpenAI are much more generous with their usage limits. If you use it from within the Codex desktop app, you can instruct the agent to find libre/CC0 assets on the internet for you, it can even launch the game and interact with it or take screenshots to fix bugs. Probably the Claude desktop app can do the same. Unbelievable now what these agents can do.
AI can definitely be useful, but especially for any sizable project, I’ve still seen more slop code than high quality code tbh
Oh just stop this flow of half-baked AI games and just give us your edgy take on the Iran war.
By the way, you might want to try the games Balance of Power I & II, where you have to manage the relations between global powers without losing face of starting a nuclear war.
Ancient, though, I think it ran originally on Windows 3.1.
>give us your edgy take on the Iran war.
Why? Who cares? It’s not like you and me decide what’s going to happen anyway.
This is where you are greatly mistaken. Both the global tribe and the global goyim will be the deciding factor in all of this. There will be no Mashiach, only death. If things continue for much longer, one billion First-World goyim will slowly die from starvation, because of lack of diesel fuel and lack of fertilizer – and every single goy will be blaming one particular group. The Russian Federation controls 65% of the worlds grain supply and has already stated that their supply will be going exclusivity to BRICS and the thirld world. What is intolerably clear is that the Epstein class ZOG machine will not be surrendering, and the Persians will not let them surrender either. So, all things being equal, the war will continue – unless it is forcefully stopped. As Mike Tyson said, everybody has a plan until you are punched in the mouth – and the Persians are doing all the punching. Make no mistake, the Persians will slowly turn Israel into Gaza (i.e. entirely flattened). They have 200,000 hyper-sonic multi-warhead reentry vehicle missiles. They will spend years flattening everything in the region, whilst the global goyim starve. Israel will eventually respond with their submarine… Read more »
Ok, a bit short, but an edgy take nonetheless. Thanks.
I know everyone has moved on from mass death but here you go anyway.
These are the most recent obits for a region I know very well. Scroll down and take a look at the first twenty or so, specifically the ages of the deceased. I keep yakking about this but it is true, these are young people. Yes, there are old people too (but maybe in the past they would have lived longer) And no, these are not deaths of despair (of course those matter too just as much); these are people with regular jobs and family relations.
I just visited there and people look sick. They look older than they are. So did the people on the flights I took. I don’t know if is due to covid or the shots or a combo.

Quote Kareninca: “I don’t know if is due to covid or the shots or a combo.”
Sadly the western societies are still not at the point to see that there is no difference. Even many of the unvaxxed do like as if shots are a bioweapon, but covid is fate like getting the flu.
Many secret services say in unity that SARS-COV-2 ist most probably a lab creation, therefore a bioweapon. But the western societies still speak from a pandemy.
There was never a pandemy. There was always only a bio-weapon. Maybe a bio-weapon hazard, maybe a bio-weapon-attack, but always a bio-weapon.
Anything would change if western societies would stop to do like as if there was a pandemy. But this will never happen or only in 50 years. The shame and embarrassment are simply too great and too unbearable.
Spike protein is spike protein, that is true. I am still uncertain if the harm is identical overall, in part because it appears that the vaccine spike can cross body barriers that the virus alone can’t. I don’t know enough unvaccinated people to have any personal sense of how the unvaccinated fare in comparison; I am mainly stuck with anecdotes these days but I don’t have many anecdotes about the unvaccinated. I only know two people in real life other than myself who are not vaccinated, and one is very old and one is housebound due to lifelong anxiety.
As far as I understood it, the whole SARS-COV-2 virus can’t get through the brain barrier.
But the spike protein can, regardless if it’s from the virus or produced from a hacked body cell.
But even mainstreet doctors say now that the spike protein is the most dangerous part. They say it in a way that normal people think they always mean spikes from the virus, and that normal people don’t get that this also includes spikes produced from hacked body cells.
And they will have success with their dumb strategy, because really most people are not able to get what it means, if a doctor say “it’s the spike”.
It’s so depressing to watch that this global crime will never be avanged. The best way to deal with this is to no longer get angry about it. This only destroys yourself and will not hurt them in any way.
The only hope is that they all get judged in future history books as that what they are. But none of us will see this, because we unvaxxed will all be dead at 2100.
