One point that Google wants to own all your data but have the power to ban you with a faulty ML algorithm with no recourse. False banning that affects someone's normal life must be punished if the service provider tries to lock you in.

Live is short, required time to market is even shorter. Arbitrary constraints might work if you have nothing better to do, but if you have a goal, or specific ideas you want to train, you'll get more natural constraints.

This is good for satire, but the real solution is to use AI to become the CEO, or take over the scope of of product or decision-making roles. There are many business-savvy technical workers that get pigeonholed because they spend most of th

This is consistent with his premise. See, the title says it: incentives are for losers. If you're already a winner you can escape from incentives. No contradiction.

They were famous for committing to buying compute with future money that many people thought they would go bankrupt. Anthropic was afraid of going bankrupt and didn't do the same.

Quantum mechanics is pretty fundamental but you wouldn't use it to describe a rock rolling down hill either.

A more concise explanation is that, computation is the transformation of information. Any transformation of information is computation, and is thus subject to some theory of computation. A physical process involves the transformation of inf

That's true for Sony, but Nintendo doesn't sell the Switch at a loss.

I suppose the point is that Mythos was released to a smaller set of partners anyway and Fable is for the masses.

"I know this" is different from "I know you know this", which is different from "You know I know this", which is still different from "you know I know you know this"

You're right that I jumped the gun and the analogy is not accurate. The point where they are similar is that you have the prefix as context as you try to type out the next word; it is a more deliberate form of reading, and when you do

A bit tough to say this, but transformers are trained the same way.

>I'm comfortable calling MiniMax the more eager model in this set because that claim is backed by the artifacts, not by vibe. It repeatedly reached for locks, persistence, policy objects, fallback paths, decorators, and extensible s

Whatever you're already able to do, you can do it better with more time.

At this point letting an agent go like this is akin to not leashing your dog in public. It's not easy to draw an accurate line but probably there needs to be real punishment for doing these things.

If there's a viable way to make all projects low-stakes we'd have done it. Consider this: microservices.

I suspect this will be a significant problem blocking long-horizon tasks in practice, basically the more turns there are, the larger the chance the classifier produces a false positive. The disappointment of the user will also scale with th

It's clear to me they are subsidizing inference in exchange for market share, and doing it at this scale makes the most sense if their target is getting more user data. Note that this sort of pricing isn't far off from the equival

The development and acquisition of valuable domain knowledge is a hard, risky, expensive and slow process. Because the valuable domain knowledge isn't yesterday's, it's today's and tomorrow's. In fields where domain

If the problem resolves to P=NP, that result would probably be more celebratee than being able to formulate the problem, but being able to formulate the problem and get people interested in it is probably worth more than the average primal

Right, you could disagree on which things to prioritize over dollar profits. My main point is that these preferences are not irrational like was asserted. At the scale of a sovereign wealth fund or pensions, you need to care about externali

SpaceX is headed by a person who is a strong ally of a politician who openly challenges Denmark's sovereignty over Greenland. Guess you wouldn't mind selling your organs to the same group of powerful people for a few bucks because

Gemini 3.5 Flash is not good at coding in practice. Gemini 3.1 Pro too, in particular is known to be bad at tool calls. Many companies would love to have alternatives to Claude Code (as it's a significant risk to depend on one vendor),

Lots of things that are wrong are also imposed on parents. Not to say involuntarily childless people are to be blamed for anything, or that two wrongs make a right, but society is immensely misaligned against having children, and forced cha

Unsurprising he'd be cheered for saying what they wanted to hear. But perhaps whether or not his stance is correct, the students needed to hear this. They (we) have to believe human brains still have value and find a way out; for other
