So what does free market mean then?

The problem is that LLM cost is more or less the same for generating some fixed amount of code or it will converge to that soon. But developer costs vary wildly based on the seniority*geographical location. Sure some Silicon Valley architec

In the absolutely free market price will go up a lot in the end. Because only one monopoly will exist by that time and it will jack up prices to the maximum tolerable level. And that level can be surprisingly high, because in every human ac

It's more of the spending potentially a thousand bucks (hypothetically - a heavy API usage by a developer utilizing top of the line agents to 100% every day, adjusted to actually be profitable) if you are paying that dev 4 to 6 grand b

Ed's writing style is often off-putting, repetitive and sometimes gives almost "desperate" vibes. But he does raises questions no one in the industry is seriously entertaining and exploring. What if those monsters are indeed

Egypt learned on other's mistakes for once. They saw how Jordan welcomed Palestinians on their land and they repaid the kindness by launching a coup against the government in 1970. No wonder not a single anti-Israeli coalition country

Great news, I hope this will finally crash russia, just like the same events back in the 80s caused soviet empire collapse.

You are using word "math" in a magical way. Current LLM programs are reducible to math and human cognition is reducible to math (which is a reasonable hypothesis). What you are implying is that just because word math is used in bo

The easiest (and hardest) solution ever - fucking ban "offshores". So for example a UN session convenes and passes an extremely simple resolution - all members are instituting a minimum tax (say 15%, for example) for literally eve

You are mistaking the beneficiaries here. Carbon credit scheme is indeed a greenwashing scam and it is pushed by the oil and gas (plus adjacent) industries. It is plainly obvious that shuffling emissions between jurisdictions does jack shit

Even bigger advantage Google has, in addition to TPUs and other stuff, is bundling. Bundle paid AI tiers with other products and entice users with clever pricing tiers, and you're golden. In fact this is what Google already does. Cheap

My hypothesis - this may be the key, but in the other way. LLMs are known to mistake negative instructions as a positive ones. "Don't use Tech_A", then Tech_A is subsequently used because it was explicitly named in the query

Why debate this using some hard examples, which may mislead people? Just ask the LLM program to calculate a simple single arithmetic operation and then look at the LLM's intermediate explanation for it. LLM program will use words and s

Driving on a road while fully abiding road rules might kill people who aren't doing that (e.g. pedestrians walking across the highway).

LLM monsters are deeply unprofitable, going by the industry hearsay (which is the only thing we have, given ultra secrecy of the LLM corporations). The only two LLM companies which disclosed their finances without lies, were two Chinese cor

Ladybird can't release soon enough, can't wait to abandon this sinking corrupt ship. I say that as a Firefox user since beta, both on PC and mobile.

The range of their offerings is immense and I think each product should be evaluated individually to competition. But just as an anecdote from my company - to create a full spectrum DOCSIS signal our HW team used multiple huge FPGA chips, I

Outside of the Default country what you call product development is a part of IT, along with QAs, SDETs, Devops and others. All of that is IT globally. And what USA calls IT is called system administration or something similar.

While in general you are right, there is a reason why developed countries are usually publicizing information about government officials and private entrepreneurs. This creates sense of accountability and allows for proper oversight by the

You are halfway to the correct answer. You are correctly recognizing that evil comes into an infinite spectrum of severity and many actors are evil at different levels at the same time. Now take the next step and recognize that fighting sai

Sam is a pathological liar. He is also trying to build a monopoly which is never a good thing. And finally he is trying to get humans into a binary choice where either there is massive unemployment due to overly successful LLMs resulting in

Absolutely not surprising. Just ask HN users what browser are they using and the answer will be Chrome or Chrome clone in 99% of cases. I even got a reply once along the lines "why do you use Firefox?". I was at a loss for words.

Yeah, that's the problem. And I bet they could enable it, they just don't want to for some reason.

They may lose small or big, but I 100% guarantee no real impeachment, because both parties are deathly afraid of any real checks and balance tools which may be applied to their members later on. At least that's the current situation, h

Politics. On the positive side, the blatant Russian/Chinese/Iranian/Qatar propaganda is flagged just as fast, so that's good enough on average.

Well, what did they expect, electing a demented person to rule them all, and then voluntarily surrendering legislative and judicial power to him too. A deliberate suicide for a country. Bet they showed those libturds who's da boss :) .
