It’s amazing to me how little folks dig into the actual data of the test results used to make these “headline” claims. As is always the case, there’s some serious cherry picking of stats and a ton of apples to oranges comparisons.

Just because a company is 99% one thing, doesn’t mean that the 1% remaining don’t have moments of real genius. What it does mean however is that when those real genius moments happen, the company isn’t in a good position to capitalize on it

My guess is because the image didn’t exist in other archives and it’s a very obscure site so why would someone have seen that? More probable they stumbled on something random like this in the wild or on Internet Archive?

Curious how this compares to the locally run AI code assistance that Jetbrains has added to their products. I’ve found it to be pretty good for what I want (which is very minimal assistance), it’s just a bit too eager to suggest code someti

Hadn’t heard this tidbit before, but it’s definitely on brand for most other things developed in the early Microsoft era. Significant portions were heavily inspired by prior work in most cases, with some outright copied or acquired from the

It’s definitely an awesome resource after digging into it, very glad you’ve shared! Like GP, at first it seemed potentially a bit shallow when skimming before I realized the format. Naming things is always hard. Somebody else mentioned “dic

Seems you aren’t wrong. It does link to a lot of external resources that look good though. Makes me wonder if they should’ve avoided naming things like “chapters” as it sets the wrong expectations.

As another commenter said, it’s quite obvious about it. For such a key difference, I’d think they’d have the model run record a log for later inspection. Or they’d be watching the game play. Or something similar.

I think a reasonable outcome would be to make a distinction between incidental recording (I have a camera recording Times Square and happen to pass you) as opposed to direct recording (as in you are the subject of what I’m recording). It’s

Interesting story, if maybe a bit oversold. Since the game apparently announces this (didn’t know that), shouldn’t the model have detected a significant difference during the gameplay?

Didn’t realize the math would be that straightforward. Is there something the author isn’t taking into account or is that a decent plausible range?

Personally, for the tiny amount I paid back in 2017 for the app, $59.99 one time now is cheap to me. That’s under $1/month over that time which is well worth it to me. If I got “locked out” if I stopped paying, then I’d feel different,
