So you are believing Anthropic's claim here, and it's not as if Anthropic didn't steal the data to train the model in the first place. I think the original sin doesn't give them any ability to complain. - https:/&#

There is so much hot air and guff around AI, so please if you don't believe me verify yourself, but GLM 5.2 is "good enough" to replace Claude Code / Codex. No it's not frontier, but it's beyond that point that

I read the article - and many articles touting what Reid said - but my question remains - why in the name of god is he relevant. He is connected and gives money to people - why should that mean anyone should listen to him about any of this.

How is Reid Hoffman relevant? Someone like Elon being asked for their opinion on tech - I kind of understand - was at least at the coal face of SpaceX and Tesla for a time, seemed to understand the tech and was not terrible when it came to

Am I right in thinking that the EFF doesn't launch any legal campaigns inside the UK (but they offer support to those who do) Is there a UK version of the EFF that fights in the courts against this lunacy or does it not quite work the

I live in $MAJOR_CITY, and Meta is a not a viable workplace for serious engineers anymore. The short term pay for the lunacy of working there is not a sensible trade-off for decent engineers. Aside from having the sword of Damocles over you

I wonder if there is a tool that could equally waste their time. Like the worlds most pedantic code review bot that just gets the PR raising bot to spin wheels forever. That might teach those people a lesson.

Don't agree with you. The agent looked to be malicious at various points. Screwing with people who wish you to do harm is principally correct. If possible I would have contacted AWS with this and tried them to get rid of the discount b

We have all the AI tools you could bare to mention, but we still don't have anyone but programmers shipping things. Why aren't the designers and PMs shipping things if these tools are so good?
