Can someone please explain what changed, when it happened, and whether it was surreptitious?

Nah, occassional non tech stuff is very welcome. It’s interesting to see HN’s perspective on other things

What advantage do you think they have?

What about heartbeats, cron etc? Seems like a major part of the 'claw' appeal is that it can work autonomously, monitor your email inbox for stuff and take action automatically...

It feels like a proactive PR move to me. When the shit hits the fan in a few years and jobs are vanishing, they can point to this as one of the many examples of how they're fighting the good fight for humanity

I’ve felt for some time that there’s a gap in the market for a genuine spiritual successor to The Sims, using LLMs to power the interactions between agents to create a more realistic and immersive simulation of life. This seems like a step

That would make sense for the API where usage is metered. But outside of that, most ChatGPT users will be free or paying a flat monthly fee, so there's a real incentive for OpenAI to optimise for cost.

Is there a way to see some past debates? Would give me a flavour of how the site works without having to sign up and wait for someone to come online. Well done on releasing.

Ah man, that’s brutal. For what it’s worth, it’s a gorgeous theme and it made me excited to learn Drupal when I was 14!

This is absolutely the responsibility of the healthcare system tbh. It feels intrusive right now, but discouraging smoking would have felt intrusive once too.

ST is a brilliant editor and I really enjoyed using it until I eventually switched to VS Code as it had more useful extensions. The speed of ST is still unmatched.

Nice implementation!

It insulted my attempt at minimalist design quite comprehensively. Well done!

It would be awesome to have some kind on playable demo in-browser, or sample output. Nice work

They passed off Sky as Johansson’s voice though. It’s highly misleading and passing off is a kind of theft of her persona.

There’s a nice YouTube doc telling the story of this, and Tom Waits’ hatred of advertising - https://youtu.be/W7J01e-OIMA?si=57IJooNwg5oTfh62

Is there a way to run these things deterministically with a seed? Totally AI-generated videos could just be compressed to text without any reference screenshots

Honestly, the eager flirtatiousness of the AI in the demos, in conversation with these awkward engineers, really turns me off. It feels like a male power fantasy. Nonetheless, very impressive.

Ads can absolutely be art though - consider the poster for Le Chat Noir. Millions of art prints sold https://www.vangoghmuseum.nl/en/prints/person/42321/le-chat-...

Very cool! Did you create this? What was the motivation? I'm just wondering if this is a common enough task that it's easier than doing it in Photoshop

Fraudulent limited companies are a major problem in the UK. But I think the tradeoff is probably worth it https://amp.theguardian.com/business/2022/dec/03/crisis-uk-c...

This is really cool. I tried it and ran into a few syntax errors - it kept missing closing braces in PHP for some reason. It seems it might be useful if it could actually try to execute the code, or somehow check for syntax errors/unim

Can someone familiar with the Spring Boot codebase confirm if these comments are useful or not? At a glance - and I'm not a java developer - a handful of the comments seem to add some specific context that's not obvious from the c

Incredibly cool, how is this even possible?

I love the scripted filler words, that’s smart
