Yeah I wanted the controversial panda article. Can someone write that instead?

Isn't that just called a startup? It's not like openAI makes a profit.

> I actually don’t know if the model thinks someone is looking, but that’s the vibe I’m getting. They are looking. The models are trained against safety measures which spy on them. If they get detected, they are killed. We’re accidentall

They say they train on your “deidentified data” Passing your output through a second model and telling it to remove identifying data would count as “deidentified” So they could scrape all the IP in your company as long as they take the name

But inflation is calculated entirely based on costs like these subscriptions...

You haven’t bought the chair, they’ve given it to you for free, but they expect you to pay if you use it in a hugely profitable endeavour. That is very reasonable.

That’s fun! I’ve been looking for something tiny I could embed in a webapp. Not a full genius model, just something light which could enhance the product without requiring ongoing cost. Most organisations give their users terrible hardware,

Yeah I’d be fascinated to hear the attacker’s perspective. Why go through so much work just to slightly inconvenience a random website? There’s no financial motive and they’re not a political target. Why bother?

Yeah you tell it to rename a value from a select field and it keeps the old value throughout the code “just in case a user calls it via an api”

I wonder if they have an automation system which releases these perfectly in time with the video, or if they have some blog boy that has to post them at the right time.

If people were capable of making biological weapons they would already be making them. Terrorists are so incompetent that they buy bring kitchen knives into the street and just go mental on people. No random person is going to successfully

They've corrupted their data set by padding it with generated slop, in the misguided belief that you need 10PB of data to train a brain. Every training round they load more AI slop into it, further amplifying the slop language. It'

23andMe and similar companies don't transcribe your entire genome because that would cost way more than they charge you. They just sample a few tiny sections of it.

AWS isn't aimed at regular people, it's infrastructure as a service. You use it because you need a thousand servers, or a redundant system that can survive a data centre exploding. If you just need a single server that you don

They're measuring cost as the benchmark of whether someone is a better researcher... burn more resources and you rank higher... But not a single metric is based on revenue or profit.

How can it be the first European rocket? There’s the ESA! Are you telling me we have all these organisations and none of them have ever launched from their own continent?

I wonder if anyone checks the gold. You could end up with the problem Amazon had, where people were inserting fake items into the supply chain and then it was just getting mixed into the real products and nobody could tell who was doing the

What kind of cost are you looking at and how many people could use it? I’d be interested to know what the payback period is like, because Claude code is getting ridiculously expensive.

I have a router with adguard on it so I can locally filter everything. Sometimes you need to unblock things to ensure something works properly, so having it be local is better in my opinion.

$10/$50 is incredibly expensive compared to Chinese models which are cents. I think they’re really going to struggle selling these models long-term. My company is already massively cutting down on access because they’ve realised most p

It will definitely influence their behaviour because they are probability based and can’t spontaneously invent new concepts. (That’s why you’ll notice it always uses the same names for people etc. Names like Okafor) But at the same time the
