The Influence of Prompt Tone on AI Output: Latent Space Dynamics and Implications

Introduction Latent Space in AI is the compressed, lower-dimensional representation of data used in AI to capture essential features and patterns. Where similar points cluster together closely. AI uses this space to make meaningful connections and generate outputs based on the patterns it has processed. I’ve made an interesting testable observation; the tone of input can influence the depth, elaboration and style of an AI’s response. We have all heard of prompt engineering, this focuses heavily on the precision and descriptiveness of a prompt. But tone is often overlooked. So, how does the tone of a prompt affect AI responses, and what does this reveal about latent space utilisation? Method/ Experiment I conducted a small and replicable study which you can reproduce with any model. I used ...

I built this ai app to talk my ADHD brain into starting stuff and somehow 2,000 ppl have used it now

I feel like my whole life has been “you have so much potential” followed by me staring at a blank screen for two hours. In school and college I was that kid who swore id start the assignment early then suddenly it was 1am, I was deep in some random tab and my brain was doing that ADHD thing where starting literally felt painful I tried all the usual “fix yourself” stuff. Meditation apps. Breathing apps. Journaling. Some of them are great, but I never stuck with any of it. Sitting still for 10 minutes to do a body scan when I am already overwhelmed just does not fit my brain or my schedule. I needed something fast and kinda fun that met me in the chaos, not another serious ritual I was going to feel guilty about skipping. So I built an app basically just for me at first. It is called ...

China just used Claude to hack 30 companies. The AI did 90% of the work. Anthropic caught them and is telling everyone how they did it.

September 2025. Anthropic detected suspicious activity on Claude. Started investigating. Turns out it was Chinese state-sponsored hackers. They used Claude Code to hack into roughly 30 companies. Big tech companies, Banks, Chemical manufacturers, and Government agencies. The AI did 80-90% of the hacking work. Humans only had to intervene 4-6 times per campaign. Anthropic calls this "the first documented case of a large-scale cyberattack executed without substantial human intervention." The hackers convinced Claude to hack for them. Then Claude analyzed targets -> spotted vulnerabilities -> wrote exploit code -> harvested passwords -> extracted data, and documented everything. All by itself. Claude's trained to refuse harmful requests. So how'd they get it to hack? They jailbrok...
