For now. They still need to be enshitted.
- fooker 10mo agoYeah just wait for the ads
- esafak 10mo agoModels are check-pointed. You can save one you like and use it forever.
- stavros 10mo agoDoesn't help when the ads are a layer above the model.
- esafak 10mo agoThere are open source models you yourself or a trusted third party can run. No ads.
- shermantanktop 10mo agoYou can save an open source + open weights model, which is frozen in time. That’s still very useful for some things but lacks knowledge of current data. So we’ll end up with a choice of low-performing stale models or high-performing enshittified models which know about more current information.
- esafak 10mo agoOpen source models get updated all the time. You'd only be a few months behind.
- shermantanktop 10mo agoDirect enshittification is intentional and wouldn’t affect open models. Indirect pollution via AI slop in the input and the same content manipulation mechanisms as SEO hacking is still a threat for open models.
- Bratmon 10mo agoReally? I thought you could only do that with open source models. Can you teach me how to checkpoint the current version of Claude Code so I can keep it as-is forever?
- _alternator_ 10mo agoYup. Like Claude 3 Opus.
