Yeah that and the "You would never choose <certain mutation> if you were designing COVID in a lab" were the kill-shots in the lab leak theory for me. I was pretty open-minded to the idea until a few hours into the debate. Be

They are very overconfident, to the point of losing their own money. There was the case of the rootclaim debate where Peter Miller successfully convinced two paid unbiased experts that COVID was not created in a lab and won $100,000 https:

I would say it's definitely useful for side projects. You have to manage your context windows a bit more but it's still definitely worth the money

You clearly didn't read the article closely enough. The first header is "The Numbers Aren’t Working Out." If it was about the audience, they would have switched stopped earlier.

Can someone who works regularly with agents explain the value of stuff like this? From my (admittedly limited) perspective it seems like a novel way to waste tokens

Ah that puts into context some of the headlines I've seen about Ukraine making arms deals with other countries. https://english.kyodonews.net/articles/-/72301 It is very odd to see the defense industry live u

That was not their argument at all. Their argument was that we're not carpet bombing Iran. They're quite explicit that they're on your side, why question their motivations?

I feel like labeling is probably the best approach here. While I personally hate the business model of "Gatcha" type games and wouldn't mind if we banned lot boxes, it is a model does seem to work for a lot of people. I also

No problem! It's one of things that when you see it, you start to see it everywhere. The concept also has broad explanatory power: it explains seemingly irrational actions from otherwise shrewd actors such as Elon Musk spending so much

You make it sound as if Trump is some kind of rational actor who would never willingly put his hand on the stove. Indeed every negative repercussion you have mentioned has already been previously inflicted on us without any extortion requir

I have no idea why you would assume Israel had to resort to extortion to get Trump to help them bomb Iran. We bombed Venezuela a few weeks ago, no extortion required. It's far more likely he was did it because Hegseth thought it would

I can't believe I have to say this on HN but no, the Iraq war was not started for Israel. Yes Netanyahu did testify before Congress but he was not testifying on behalf of Israel and the Israeli government quietly warned against invadin

I think that's doing the article a disservice. "Some patients prefer the service of AI doctors to real doctors, even though they definitely do get a lot wrong" is what I got out of it. Personally I think the article spends a
