Codex inferred Assembly minutes = round(0.44 * steps + 0.70 * parts) from the data.

Cool! I had codex have a go at calculating "effective price" on a few items, that prices in the assembly labor, and then also calculates the delta between price and effective price. Obviously very depended on how you value your ti

What do you mean "this far"? How far is this? Corps lose law suits all the time. They always have to go whatever "this far" is before it happens, surely?

I mean... the major change is that it changed, no? It's kind of unprecedented, or, at least, highly unusual?

There is a world. In that world data centers are not a net problem, but net solution. Looking at car exhaust and concluding that cars must be bad would be a questionable conclusion. We tolerate them despite the pollution they cause, not for

I have no idea what people are doing. I am thinking more about harder problems than ever before. It goes like: "Here is this thing I wonder about", and the LLM is like "Yeah sure, consider these things that are super related

> protect what they see as the moat, that a model is "good at spawning sub-agents" Yes, that is the obvious answer. I was looking for an explanation as to why and why now. Codex is open source after all. They used to not do it.

What's the idea here? Why does this seem important to OpenAI?

Pretending that those options are equal is a false dichotomy. Not participating is an option up to a point, and then it is increasingly limiting all other options.

The anxious pendulum swings hard between "show me something real that is well done" and "what is interesting about it, that's what everyone does".

Oh, absolutely. The space mirror idea might be a net terrible idea; more panels and better batteries could simply be it. I just don't see why, if this turns out to work, the benefits would not diffuse (principally because I don't

How does that concern individual companies as AI consumers? The hyperscalers have no trouble utilizing their GPUs (and I would suspect they mathed it out to be profitable but, again, that's just a different topic).

That was a wild read.

I suspect this will turn out to be a super overblown issue: AI spend is literally the easiest spend to regulate in the entirety of businesses. No machinery is grinding to a halt over it, no asset that had to be bought and is now useless. Yo

1 Just as with traditional non-ai ways of doing things, there is a deterministic layer that can trigger when things are off. This can range from letting the ai know to stopping before a human confirms. 2 Usually, specially for SMBs, nobody

Why would you need a guide for that now? We long had to pick different models (and thinking levels) by task and feel.

Possibly! It's just hard to reason about from the outside. When does the model benefit from all the ambient knowledge? Idk. Regardless, it's fairly obvious to me that none of what I do now will require "frontier models"
