Even the original Silicon Valley didn’t match the zaniness of real life. Why do we need a reboot? Just check HN!

I’m tired of the breathless hyperbole in every AI piece trying to get clicks. Every new thing means that “OpenAI is finished” or “It’s over for Anthropic” or whatever. It’s telling that this take is that Anthropic having a popular product i

A big part of their success today is embracing globalism, beginning with the Westernization effort in the Meiji era and continuing into the present era with top Japanese firms becoming multinational, eg Nintendo/Sony of America, Toyota

Mainly because it brings out the worst in people. It’s easy to read Blind too much and take on a very cynical, money-driven view of everything in your life, which of course a Blind addict would justify as clear-eyed and pragmatic.

It’s not hard to find applications where 90% success or even 50% success rate is incredibly useful. For example, hooking up ChatGPT Codex to your repo and asking it to find and fix a bug. If it succeeds in 50% of the attempts, you would hit

In general, you can’t expect good answers if the AI can’t see your actual code. Most people trust that their SaaS products are not going to steal their code, as evidenced by the many customers of Github.

should still be in the API for side-by-side comparison, but I’ve never tried the -pro models in the API.

It means that you can keep those shares even if you leave. Otherwise the term vesting cliff would be meaningless at any startup where the shares are not liquid.

You should also try o4-mini-high. Or, if you have already, I’m curious to hear how they compare for you. I somewhat suspect that o4-mini is better on pure math problems that take more thinking and less world knowledge.

Isn’t the simpler explanation that if you ask the same question, there’s a chance you would get the same answer? In this case you didn’t even get the same answer, you only happened to have one sentence in the answer match.

What in the fine print are we criticising? Most of the negative comments make no reference to any fine print on their website.

It’s easy to measure the models getting worse, so you should be suspicious that nobody who claims this has scientific evidence to back it up.

I think Gell-Mann amnesia happens here too, where you can see how wrong HN comments are on a topic you know deeply, but then forget about that when reading the comments on another topic.

You can simply open up Chatgpt and generate the image yourself, faster than it’d take to transact with this third party. The cool thing is that they are printing a physical book for you.

A human will give different answers to the same question, so I’m not sure why it’s fair to set a higher bar for an LLM. Or rather, I’m not sure how you would design this test in a way where humans would pass and the best LLM would fail.

They didn’t even say what model they used. Half the comments here are probably using a different model than the one in the article.

You can render frames directly to a video file (ffmpeg option), which I suspect a lot of beginners or casual users do. You can also use the compositor to turn a prerendered frame sequence into a video file. Lastly I suspect most users prefe

Based on their marketing, Glaze is “defensive” because it prevents training a model to have a coherent idea of what your style is, preventing people from generating art “in the style of andai”. Nightshade doesn’t protect you, but it behaves

Is netatalk the key thing here that makes it Time Machine compatible? The rest seems like standard DIY home server stuff.
