The technology isn't anything new but, it's the context that makes it so uncomfortable. People have very different "expectations" of privacy when they're having a conversation with an AI VS when they're browsin

I think the problem is less "AI agents are ruining the internet" and more that nobody wants to receive a thousand automated requests from other people's agents. The internet was already full of spam, this just makes it cheap

The 370 years thing is doing a lot of work in the headline imo. If people had already figured out it was probably a book cipher, this is impressive, but it's not quite the same as solving something that hundreds of experts had been act

I'm struggling to see the upside of replacing working coreutils when the replacement still has bugs that the old implementation doesn't. Rust being safer is nice, but that doesn't help much if the new rm segfaults

The thing that bothers me here is less that the model cheated and more that it found a way to improve the score that the people running the test didn't intend. That's a pretty nasty failure once you start giving these things more

Here's to hoping they aren't next in line for implementing ID-based age verification. That would genuinely make me switch to a different service

I must say I am becoming a huge fan of Deepseek. They keep putting out capable models and actually tell people a lot about how they built them. Even if I don't understand every part of it, I'd rather see companies show their work

What I find interesting is how AI has changed the cost of maintaining two native apps enough that a decision that made no sense a few years ago is worth revisiting now

The higher price seems less important if it actually gets the job done with fewer tokens. I'm still very worried that this will end up coming back to bite us, by becoming more expensive once they inevitably nerf it. Every major model p

The common thread between this and the other incident seems to be agents finding somewhere they can leave information for other agents. Once they discover a writable surface, it basically becomes shared memory for them

This is really cool, but $33 for a single generated world makes it hard to see this being useful for games just yet. Not to mention how this would go in a much larger project

The recent Sonnet models have been disappointing for me personally which is why I'm going look into using Opus/Fable as the planner and Flash as the executor. Let the expensive model handle the hard thinking and use Flash for impl

Gemini 3.8 Flash still looks like the better pick to me. Muse Spark 1.3 is nice, but Gemini gets you similar performance for a cheaper price. Not to mention with the pace at which Google is moving with their Flash models I expect a new one

Some seem to treat microservices as a sign of good engineering when it's often just premature complexity. You can always split a monolith later, but you're stuck maintaining that complexity from day one

The cost difference is pretty dang nice. Going from roughly a dollar to $0.10 for the same kind of task makes it so that products that didn't make financial sense before become possible

We're finally seeing more appreciation for this kind of engineering. Not everything needs to be solved by throwing more hardware at the problem

I like that this roadmap spends so much time on things like HTTP, auth, result formats and SDKs. It's a nice step up from the rough initial release and will just make the overall experience building it easier

I really like that you put architectural context in there, specifically the "why" behind certain decisions Can't wait to modify my agent.md file and then forget about it until it becomes useless again

Honestly, this makes a lot of sense to me. Devs that are good at their job don't need the absolute best model for every task, and if a cheaper model gets the job done 95% as well, it's a pretty easy choice

I really like the direction Kagi is taking here. It feels like theyre' building the product around how people actually use it rather than chasing every new AI trend

AI itself is not the problem imo. The core issue is basically outsourcing your entire brain to the LLM and never trying to solve a problem yourself When I was in school there were multiple instances where I would be stuck on a problem for n

The idea of treating database programming more like regular programming is nice. I'm just not sure how much complexity this actually removes versus moving that complexity somewhere else

The frequency of these incidents is seriously tempting me to make a switch. I hope Anthropic steps up their game because they've been going very downhill lately

500% in a year is just insane. I knew RAM prices were going up, but $3k+ for 128GB of DDR5 makes me wonder how much of this is actually AI demand, and how much is this just manufacturers taking advantage of it. They have done this in the pa

I really like what Framework is trying to do but this story is very hard to ignore. If a failed BIOS update can brick the machine, and the official solution is a CA$500+ motherboard (that's about $350+ USD I belieive), there's sti
