- rendang 2y agoI missed the first half hour, any highlights?
- therein 2y agoIt would be satisfying if he gets called out for repeating himself next time he tries to come out and say he is scared how powerful their next model is.
- taejavu 2y agoDespite explicitly requesting the tetris/bejeweled hybrid to be "insanely impressive", the result was ugly and clunky. With that demo running in the background, they then segued into a hiring pitch for a new AI game studio. Consider me unimpressed.
- stuckkeys 2y agoThey might try to have a senator block it or make it a crime to use it…wait Elon is the president. I guess they cannot.

- andsoitis 2y agoDoesn’t OpenAI claim their work will lead to artificial general intelligence? That seems like a much steeper gradient to climb. Hype is the fuel that bootstraps fortunes in techtopia.
- hobs 2y agoLying about FSD for almost a decade now through your teeth isn't "hype" - it's just bullshit.
- riffraff 2y ago> Hype is the fuel that bootstraps fortunes in techtopia. Hype is the fuel that builds fortunes at the expense of the greater fool. See WeWork. Arguably none of the magnificent seven was built on hype, other than Tesla (and even there, not sure it was).
- notfromhere 2y agoIt’s overvalued relative to its actual business, which is by definition hype
- riffraff 2y agoI agree it's wildly overvalued, but the hype came gradually over many years of actually shipping products that made money. It's not the same kind of hype as, say, color.com
- ben_w 2y agoYes, but we have a long track record of one overpromising and underdelivering, charging money for what doesn't yet exist; while the other released stuff on a minimal website with an associated blog post for fanfare, and actually (metaphorically) turned the world upsidedown, and only charges for what they actually deliver. Yes there's hype now, but that's how it began. So I think people are less distrustful of Altman when he says "thousands of days".
- draxil 2y agoYes, but then they also redefined what that means half way through.
- kortilla 2y agoI have 2 words for you: different company
- qingcharles 2y agoFrom what sama says, looks like GPT4.5 dropping imminently. So, might up the game even more. 2025 going to be even more wild than the last two years. Ye gads.
- conradfr 2y agoEvery competitors were done when Claude 3.5 was released, every competitors were done when o1 was released, the entire West was done when DeepSeek was released, the world was done when Mistral Le Chat was released, I guess now it's time for the solar system to be done because of Grok3. Let's see what new model dominates the galaxy next week.

- spacebanana7 2y agoThere's a level of truth to many of those statements. 1) Claude 3.5 prevented OpenAI from making big monopoly profits on LLM inference 2) Open source models like Mistral and Llama effectively prevented any regulator from controlling how people fine tuned models, and what they used them for 3) Deepseek prevented the collective west from exerting control over the creation of base models
