Cars feels like a bit of an odd one out because there's basically no low end. If you have the money to produce even a single car from a Camry to a hummer, you are probably going to not try to pinch pennies on marketing because a single

More like 100ms or less as their visual field coincidentally sweeps over wherever the ad is posted in the physical world. In this regard, it's even more important to use something people subconsciously associate with your thing.

It sure seems like, while LLMs and diffusion models won't completely eradicate the middle class, the bar has now risen significantly to actually contribute in a lot of areas. For programmers, sure SV startups and actual software-first

This works for nerds, but not for grandma who can't even describe what she's doing without using the word "google".

The point the other poster is making, though, is that there's no actual intent. They do not have a conceptualization of a goal like a person does. Their "focus" on a goal is an unstable equilibrium and they're going to f

I don't know what to say except that this has not been the case for me. Claude is a different person for every single prompt and has absolutely no core sense of what our goals are, or even who the "our" is that's having

In a sense yes. I trust that my coworkers will be accountable for their outcomes and accomplish them with the high quality bar I know they intrinsically hold themselves to. And that they understand our shared goals and if they don't, t

Because this is MARKETING, not research. You are viewing marketing copy for anthropic. What is their methodology by which they determined ANY of these numbers? This is pure marketing fluff, just like every single other thing this company do

It makes me happy because it means that these misanthropic technofascists have no moat. They can spend trillions of dollars only for it to be largely copied in short order. Even if they weren't political adversaries of freedom, I would

But what's the point of real assets if you can't do anything with them? No point in holding real estate if nobody can afford to rent/buy your houses or go do whatever money-spending thing you put on your commercial lots.

I call this "brand mining." Take a brand previously known for quality, start selling shite, and then you get to pocket the delta until the market catches on. The brand is now worthless (you've "mined" it out) but he

"There aren’t a lot of ways a website can be invisibly broken." ??? Have you never debugged weird react state before??? Have you never used a nontrivial SPA before? Even the most simple react SPA has about a trillion states. I don

"Note I’m not saying there are zero risks: the agent could mess up accessibility, it could cause an infinite loop that blocks users, etc. But in general, frontend code is a lot more ephemeral and replaceable than other types of code. S

"loyalty"? weird word choice. Devs switch because all of the magic of "AI" is LLMs + we stole the entire written output of the entire human species, with some remaining % coming from various tricks we've learned ove

"and does not possess any real intelligence or critical thought whatsoever." unfortunately in most companies this is literally wrongthink and will get you shut down as being a scared luddite.

It's because the messaging for what the point of these things is supposed to be is all over the place. Ask 10 different people and you'll get 10 different answers: - A superintelligence that will usher in an age of human enlighten

Information wants to be free. We should simply dispose of copyright. With LLMs, waters that were already muddy are now a thick slurry. And it's only going to get worse. It's an antiquated mechanism and is far more abused than it i

They were, very unfortunately, outsmarted by said too-clever programmers. As such I would like to request my enums and ternaries be returned to me. Trust me, they will not make a dent in the messes people have still managed to create.

It's relevant because the feedback mechanism for countering all of this is "theoretically, the firm gets outcompeted by other actors who are not doing the bad things." I'm pointing out that, due to how strongly capitalis

Correct. I do believe my _manager_ wants me to have a say etc. but I also know my manager has terrifically little power overall. "In management" just means you can't unionize and have to dance to the company tune.

No, if he speaks against it he gets labeled "anti-AI" and laid off or not promoted. If he stays silent he retains his job. Corporate Capitalism's main innovation was virtualizing feudalism. Now anyone with a bit of cash flow

Stripes founders aren't suits but they're just as eager to make money. Their payments business is low margin and they're hungry for anything higher margin they can attach.

They addressed this though? I suspect you are unfamiliar with the GIL in python. The reason for a language distinction is because, as OP says: "As it's much easier to share a connection pool locally". This may change vaguely
