Fully agree. I can drink coffee until 6pm and soft drinks until 9pm without impact to my sleep. There's little point in me moderating my caffeine intake. Light, sleep time regularity, and exercise make a much more noticeable difference

Even the official provider on OpenRouter seems to have this issue. Hope it's an easy fix for them.

Pay attention to what it forgets, and start telling it to proactively note down those things into nominated files while it works, e.g. indexing topics covered by each chapter/section/page of each paper/material. GPT-5.6 is re

It's a solvable problem if you're willing to throw more tokens at it. Frontier models have gotten very good at cleaning up their own messes. You just need the right skills/loops, and to stick to models that consistently follo

There is a third case where the other party doesn't realize that the asker lacks the relevant experience to discern good LLM answers from bad answers for that topic. Same solution as case one though - don't be afraid to say "

Denying tech export to cooperative allies is certainly a move. Many nations are now likely thinking: Why cooperate on international IP enforcement if we get lumped together with adversarial nations anyway?

As a current free-tier user, this price & transition plan seems completely reasonable. I'll upgrade when the nudge comes. I've got at least that much utility from it so far. Very glad this isn't a subscription.

I have found Claude to be especially unpredictable. I've mostly switched to GPT-5.4 now - although it's slightly less capable, it's massively more reliable.

Some of the flak is that issues are often only acknowledged once a fix is in place, and the partial fixes are presented as if they solve the whole problem. The near-instant transition from "there is no problem" to "we already

Thank you for the reminder. Childhood, at least IME, does a bad job of preparing people for this: fault and blame rarely matter in real interactions. When no teacher is around to play judge, all that matters is that you get a favorable outc

It works for me Firefox's Cloudflare DNS over HTTP. For clarity, the recent issue[0] likely wasn't intermittent. Cloudflare's malware blocking DNS server now blocks those archive.today sites. Doesn't affect the non-malwa

This could be an explanation for the drama - LLMs are trained to learn and emulate correlations in text. I'm sure you already have a caricature in mind of the kinds of online posts (and thus LLM training data) that include miscitations

It's not perfect but it does have a few opt-in security features: running all tools in a docker container with minimal mounts, requiring approvals for exec commands, specifying tools on an agent by agent basis so that the web agent can

I'm working in AI, but I'd have made this anyway: Molty is my language learning accountability buddy. It crawls the web with a sandboxed subagent to find me interesting stuff to read in French and Japanese. It makes Anki flashcard

Ratio/quantity is important, but quality is even more so. In recent LLMs, filtered internet text is at the low end of the quality spectrum. The higher end is curated scientific papers, synthetic and rephrased text, RLHF conversations,

It requires tax increases, and the average earner's UBI will typically balance out the tax increase, meaning they don't directly profit. UBI isn't about giving everyone free money. It's about giving everyone a safety net

That discussion also makes me worry that they may try to use LLMs or LLM-based metrics to measure the size of the gap as a proxy for value of the content. The landlord of the marketplace should probably not dabble in the appraisal of produc

What makes you think the secrets are small enough to fit inside people's heads, and aren't like a huge codebase of data scraping and filtering pipelines, or a DB of manual labels?

I don't think retrofitting existing languages/ecosystems is necessarily a lost cause. Static enforcement requires rewrites, but runtime enforcement gets you most of the benefit at a much lower cost. As long as all library code is

It's not even "nearly as good as o1". They only compared to the older 4o. You can safely assume Qwen2.5-Max will score worse than all of the recent reasoning models (o1, DeepSeek-R1, Gemini 2.0 Flash Thinking). It'll pro

Vegetarian keto is certainly possible, but vegan would be very tough. Only 2 out of 6 of my regular meals[1] have meat in them, and I'd probably replace these with tofu and mushrooms if I could tolerate them. There's a world of ke
