Respect to the Man Chasing AI Immortality, While Freeloading Off Our Platform

Fascinating article. I'm genuinely unclear whether the avowedly fictional security team is detailing a real or fictional postmortem.

I have to say, it isn't very clear this really happened.

Reads like fiction or magic.

		If it's a PR stunt it's a good one. I hadn't heard about mulerun before this.

Same. I looked through the other posts on the company's blog and they're pretty much all SEO slop like "How to Restore Old Photos With AI: Complete Guide" clearly written by an LLM.

But I can't quite decide whether this post being so conspicuously incongruous with the rest implies it's an exception and more likely real... or if the overall trend of posting low-effort SEO spam makes it probable that this, too, is simply marketing slop, just prompted for attention grabbing clickbait instead of inbound filler.

As for Phase 2 — if he actually gets Ollama + Qwen 72B running on Oracle Cloud ARM, then uses DSPy for self-optimization and Aider for code self-modification…

That would be a different story. One that has nothing to do with us, and is entirely legal. We hope he makes it there. The right way.

Come on. When a mole gets whacked, they look for a new hole.

This person (and millions of others like him) isn't going to reflect on why the project got shut down and question his lack of ethics. He's looking for a new angle to exploit and a new set of excuses to trot out if he gets caught with his hand in the cookie jar.

Fun read and honestly very impressive demonstration of what can be done with the tech by someone with no experience whatsoever.

		The article casts doubt on the claim of no experience. He references actual research papers, complains about regressions, and attempts to shape swarms. You decide for yourself.

Any bit of respect he might have earned is overwhelmingly canceled out by the disrespect he deserves for being an Andrew Tate fan.

Sounds like yet another story about the Goliaths of the AI world ruining the Davids. They even “respected” him by posting his details to the world, in a possibly illegal way.
