I found this: https://www.tanayj.com/p/openai-and-anthropic-revenue-breakd... Which says Anthropic is about 1/2 the API revenue of OpenAI and growing fast. But OpenAI is actually 5x revenue overall and 18x the cha

Afaik this isn't just chat website user base, this also includes API calls through different platforms- Amazon, Azure, etc.

Crazy that Anthropic has a fraction of the AI model market that OpenAI has, but a valuation that's larger than their proportional share of the market to OpenAI.... The last valuation was at $157 billion- Anthropic is valued at 1/3

The great leap forward happened in communist china. Probably communism and centrally planned economies have starved at least as many people as capitalism. Neither system seems particularly concerned with feeding poor people.

Afaik almost all of the actual malnutrition in the world now comes from political causes rather than literal lack of volume of food (and actually a lot of historical famines were politically caused as well- the great leap forward, Irish pot

This is also seems to be the main factor in the exponential adoption of solar panels/energy. Yes, it's a trade war with geopolitical implications. But not sure that it outweighs exponential adoption of solar energy. The same mig

I've loved kindle samples for this reason. (Although all samples are not the same length) If I get to the end of the sample (which may take an hour to read? - longer than bookstore browsing time) and have enough reasons to continue I&#

Interesting! This video seems to quickly mention that framework implements the correct BIOS firmware when set to s3 sleep....

A while back before framework even existed I had a linux thinkpad. Support for things like wifi and screen resolution weren’t good on ubuntu. But in 2024 can someone give me a rundown of why a custom hardware company like framework has trou

This isn't entirely correct though. You definitely shouldn't creep people out or make them uncomfortable. Assuming no bad intent, it's still an issue to know that by saying something you could unintentionally make someone f

5-22- so 17 years instead of 11. Quite a difference! Can any of that be put down to advances in training tech that wasn't around when Magnus started playing?

I wasn't trying to suggest anything per se. But like others in the thread I do believe that practicing socialization will cause you to improve at it. And at the same time people will think you're creepy and awkward if you "do

"only 11 years"... that seems like a lot to me, although reading further down in the thread it seems like it might take twice or three times as long to get to a very high level. Do people in the chess community measure players by

Some people would find the kind of nerdy and analytical "social optimization" you describe more creepy and objectionable than chatting with an OnlyFans model. (whether or not they are actually an AI) This is not a personal attac

It's always a refreshing reminder of my privilege seeing how many barriers certain people have to just buying/receiving a computer- shipping into a country, dealing with getting money into a country, using a credit card, etc. Also

Has anyone heard opinions from the incoming administration on getting this changed? I guess the one area this tax law particularly affects are bootstrapped revenue-generating (non-VC funded) startups with high dev costs? i.e., actual runnin

Interesting to see how bad the physics/object permanence is. I wonder if combining this with a Genie 2 type model (Google's new "world model") would be the next step in refining it's capabilities.

This is cool. It's pretty close to what I meant, but each task is completely siloed without any meta information, so it's good if you wanted to look for something very specific but not good if you are thinking about or exploring

There's definitely a psychological component of what people are willing to pay for and what costs get hidden- if the full insurance premium was shown to be directly taken out of your paycheck every month people would complain, but if t

That makes logical sense in terms of grabbing onto a specific mechanism for risk hedging, which would be how we accidentally and naturally arrived at this system. But it doesn't make sense within a larger society in that you drop out

This is presumably about math problems, but I always approach programming problems this way. One issue I have with math problems is that sometimes I wish I could immediately go down one level of abstraction and see something like a physic

Is $200 a lot if you end up using it quite often? It makes me wonder why they don't want to offer a usage based pricing model. Is it because people really believe it makes a much worse product offering? Why not offer some of the same c

Second this. For any reasonably popular language you can ask for the variation of dev env boilerplate you specifically need, and also ask questions about it and why it’s setup that way. Specifically what certain configurations do and why. G

As a side consideration, according to the varying opinions in response to this question it’s not really clear what constitutes PII (personally identifying information). When I researched this topic it was strange to me that no one seems to

This seems like a clear case for government regulation over libertarianism, because who else holds the interest of this sort of social good at the scale of all cars driving the roads ? The personal moral dilemma here is crazy. Are you will

Right now an AI understands a lot about the opinions of all the programmers have about how to write good Python, and enough people wrote about it on the internet that you can ask ChatGPT questions about best practices and it can come up w

As I referenced elsewhere in this thread, I'm specifically thinking about the fact that if tools for AI coding become a standard part of dev workflow, new languages might not ever get off the ground because the AI hasn't seen enou

One symptom that I see that's super annoying (I'm thinking JS, but many languages have this problem) is that tooling seems to be getting worse. Incompatibility between CJS and ESM, for example. Each new issue like this that comes

To be more specific, new languages will be created, but if people get used to using AI to help them code a new language might not have enough internet discussion around it to enable the AI to write good quality code in that language. It&#x2
