I'm not an AI researcher (would love to hear an actually informed answer on this!), but AFAIK the weights are more or less a black box - you can't easily pinpoint that weights x, y and z relate to Ancient Rome and can therefore be

So if an 86 year old writes a book they can't copyright it?

Seriously, you should try Fable. It picks up on subtleties that Opus misses.

Wow, that's nuts. What sort of site was this? Mine don't get anything near this level of attention!

Not pointing and laughing, just wondering why (since I see so many posts about this). Sounds like it's just for the thrill of the game, which is completely valid.

I say this as someone who runs several publicly-facing websites, and also scrapes a few others for use in my own tools: why do people care so much about bots? WordPress with a cache can handle on the order of 1k requests per second on the c

I mean, I pay around $2,000 (AUD) per annum for electricity from the grid. If this battery plus some solar panels could get us free power for the next 20+ years, that's easily worth $15-$20k or so.

Someone did this exact thing recently, but running GLM-5.2 with something like 16GB of DRAM, a standard desktop CPU and nVME SSD. I think they got something like 10 _seconds per token_ (not tokens per second). EDIT: it was 25GB of ram and u

In defence of management, there is definitely a pattern of engineers (or employees in general, really) spending inordinate amounts on time doing something that they find personally gratifying but adds no real value to the product/busin

I don't understand why Claude sounding like Claude is a bad thing? What's next - complaining that `make` says "nothing to be done for 'all'"?

I remember noticing the same thing a decade ago. I don't think it has anything to do with AI.

Not quite sure where you got that last bit from. Firefox alone psyched 200 vulnerabilities in a month when Glasswing happened, and I remember a lot of chatter about hackers basically watching git repos with bots to see when the Glasswing p

Honestly I don't really see this as a bad thing for the average person. I don't register my domains with CloudFlare, but I do all my DNS through them and it's great. Everything propagates in 10 seconds rather than 10 hours.

I've been with VentraIP in Australia for a decade now. They're not necessarily better or worse than any other provider (I'm assuming support is good and local but I've never needed it), but they're based in Melbourn

I run an open source project, contribute to others and in the last 6 months I've set up two homelabs (one at work, one at home) out of hard rubbish/ewaste running a bunch of open source software. I don't get the anti-AI senti

There's every chance here I'm just being annoying pedant, but generating a bunch of SVGs of animals on vehicles doesn't mean that it's good at generating SVGs in general, just SVGs of animals on vehicles. On the flip sid

A lot of disappointment here in the comments, but models like these aren't meant to compete with the likes of Fable or GPT 5.6. I use 3.1 Flash Lite regularly to classify listings on eCommerce websites. It's great for this task -

I'm the GP that got Claude to port the app, set up the SMTP server etc. etc. And I do see stuff on that level of complexity, multiple times a week. I'm not a full-time software dev any more, but did learn the craft at a really go

>Usually, the longer the AI works on something the crappier its output because that means the context is getting filled up. This was definitely truer with older models but isn't necessarily the case now. They frequently do other thi

Genuinely, if you want an actual answer: your choice of language basically made us seem like you weren't interested in a good faith, productive discussion with the possibility of minds being challenged/changed, so people just disa

Genuinely, install Ubuntu Server Edition into an old computer, set up SSH then tell Claude Code the account and IP for login. You can ask if to set up damn near anything you want and it'll do it. If you're using a laptop make sure

I just don't understand how someone could think we're going back to a pre-LLM world. Have you not used one since Opus 4.5 came out? Especially as somebody that's no longer in the software profession and so doesn't have

I went from cycling between models all the time in Cursor (some would randomly be better at certain tasks than others) to just going pure Opus 4.5 when that came out - it was so far ahead of anything else at the time. Interestingly with Fab

Had the same thought. Since around 2022-2023, most subreddits insta-ban you or hide your posts unless you have x karma (you gain karma by posting and getting upvotes). So unless you happen to have an old account with karma from pre-2022, t

When I was studying ML back in 2017 people were still calling things like image classifiers "AI".
