IMO: Copilot (and Devin) has always missed the mark. Its always been a lazy, bad product that feels like it was made by a team that doesn't even want to use it themselves. Going more agentic is only going to make it worse; Copilot&#x27

This smells very suspiciously like: someone who doesn't know anything about AI (possibly Sacks) demanding answers on R1 from someone who doesn't have any good ones (possibly Altman). "Uh, (sweating), umm, (shaking), they stol

There's been so many small changes over the years that have decimated the experience further and further for me. Most recently, the "Podcasts" Library tab has now been renamed "Podcasts and Courses". The competing K

One thing I've seen recently: My daylist will be named the same, but have (usually very slightly) different songs between different platforms (e.g. Mac vs iPhone). Not the end of the world, but very strange.

I'm sorry, but this is just so, so wrong. Nvidia is an insane company. You can make the argument that the entire sector is frothy/bubbly; I'm more likely to believe that. But, here's some select financials about NVDA: NV

One hopes that, even if they're capable of doing so, these companies will explicitly forbid it. Or, at worst, that these systems are traversing the web with a proper user-agent, and captchas/sites can infer its an AI from that. Of
