Months? Most terrible founders and CEOs I've worked for set the company back years, and most of the time significantly damaged it to the point of no return for everyone involved. The worst ones are the arrogant, low-skill and/or l

Tiktok Shop needs to be next. They openly allow sellers to advertise 1 TB SD cards for $15 each, and many more scams just like it. When you report any of the listings, you get an automated "Doesn't violate our terms." notific

Except if you use open models, on your own hardware. 90% of the open models are good enough. You sound just like the assembly programmers did back when C++ (and later, untyped languages like Python and Ruby) came out. It's just another

Very bold of you to think we aren’t already past the point where “what’s valuable” is only human created. Maybe some truly exceptional people can create works that are exceptional but it’s only a matter of time before the models usurp them

People here need to stop complaining about the train, and get on board. It's easier than ever before to build a network that can later be used for distribution and monetization. Does it really matter that content is authentically organ

I read this as it's pretty easy to dox anyone just by reporting their plate number as stolen to the police, or even a partial plate number would do.

Here, drop all your data into this vortex -- we need it for our next web site builder AI model.

They are moving most of their development to India, where it's pretty easy to find bottom-dollar UE5 dev shops.

I wouldn't want to get into a medical scanner built by an AI image generation company! Marketed as a spa treatment. There are so many things that can go wrong and the unseriousness around the whole thing bothers me.

It isn't a matter of technology. It's physics and math. These things are already very well understood, just not by investors. And that creates room for the hustle.

Every few years one of these ultrasound companies comes around and promising to revolutionize medical imaging and nothing ever comes of it. Anyone remember https://www.openwater.health ? The same ideas are in a perpetual state of

Outflows into AI. I wouldn’t be shocked if it goes down to $20k soon.

Hopefully they will work on response time. I've been noticing it taking 5+ minutes for each turn, for not complicated requests. Seems to vary based on time of day too.

This has been covered elsewhere, but if you swear at Claude Anthropic will automatically bump you down into a lower quality model. It was found in the recent source code leak of Claude Code. So that's probably what happened to the guy

AI doesn't create truth, it imitates it, through assimilation of data. It is not intelligence, but it mimics it without consciousness or free will. AI can be used to manipulate, optimize engagement over truth (as we have seen with how

Only $5,000, takes 6 months to order, cash up front, will be deprecated and unsupported by the time you finally get it.

I once worked for a founder who gave me a “raise” from a W2 to a 1099 contractor. Except the raise was just not deducting any of the taxes from my pay. I was 24 and was naive. I sued him, and won reclassification as well as two payments he

This has got to be a joke at this point, and at worse some kind of financial scheme for Altman friends & family. What's next? Will I wake up to an announcement OpenAI is acquiring Joe Rogan's podcast? I thought this was suppos

I was wrong about it being a spinning disk, ROTA=1 is just how Linux reports Azure virtual disks. But the underlying frustration stands: my home NVMe does the same copy in a fraction of the time because it can do 500K+ IOPS with no virtuali

Agreed. It's pretty trivial to add a few images to your markdown. I had to hunt for the screenshots, which are full size entire desktop grabs for what is a web app -- odd.

Azure is easily the most expensive, least reliable and worst cloud available. It's borderline scam. An example today, I provisioned high IOPS SSDs (supposedly) and what is actually connected to the instance? A spinning hard drive! I di

The solution to this problem is for LLMs to get better at producing code and descriptions that doesn't look LLM generated. It's possible to prompt and get this as well, but obviously any of the big AI companies that want to increa

I wouldn't trust any of these benchmarks unless they are accompanied by some sort of proof other than "trust me bro". Also not including the parameters the models were run at (especially the other models) makes it hard to for

The problem with this is context. Whatever examples you provide compete with whatever content you want actually analyzed. If the problem is sufficiently complex, you quickly will run out of context space. You must also describe your respons

It's really easy to overcome that -- just sponsor some IndieDevs to flood the internet with scripts and tools to migrate all your conversations from OpenAI. Make it easy for people to switch using a simple process, make sure it's

I keep hearing people say "but as humans we actually understand". What evidence do you have of the material differences in what understanding an LLM has, and what version a human has? What processes do we fundamentally do, that an

I don't want a different interface than the CLI. I just want the exact same interface as the CLI, but with infinite scroll.
