Part of that potential profitability is reportedly coming the fact that they get a discount on compute from SpaceX in May and June. Anthropic and SpaceX signing a contract where Anthropic leases datacenter capacity for the low low price of

Of cause there are some who see boost in productivity and other advantages of AI, but I'm questioning the current AI models ability to produce code (and text). If all the promises were true, we'd see an increase in code quality, b

It suggests that "kill $(lsof -t -i:3000)" is completely safe, which it's not, if you don't know what runs on that port. Maybe some Javascript framework runs on that port, I don't know, but neither does the AI, the

That's my line of thinking with the "bundled into some other solution". It doesn't make a ton of sense for an individual to buy API access, but other companies could provide a service built in the API, and they are the o

When Cariad had a data leak, they were really quick to point out that no payment information had been leaked. That really shows how little they understand about PII. Screw the payment information, I'll just cancelled that card and get

How is this a tangible income stream? I suspect that the amount of customers willing to pay for some weird API access or We Connect offering is rather limited. It would have to be bundled into some other solution, which again I'd guess

I didn't look into the numbers myself, but Ed Zitron claimed in his podcast that the only reason Anthropic looks sort of profitable was due to some rather clever accounting (not illegal) and a spending that didn't happen, I think.

While I'm not opposed to the idea that Google AI mode is so good that people use it more, I also feel like the average person only have so many queries per day. Google statement would indicate that people had a number of queries that t

Not really, it's slimy because it should be obvious that it's the morally wrong thing to do. There's no tangible benefit to the users, only risk. The fact that they only opt-out EU users, because regulation forces them, tells

Typically if you develop a software product for a company, the company resumes responsibility. No one would develop anything for any high risk business, if they were to assume personal responsibility of the end result. LLMs don't reall

In our case we're completely allowed to use AI, but if you do, you carry the responsibility for it's output (not in a legal sense obviously). So if your LLM says "Sure, go ahead and run that code" and it deletes the prod

Are you suggesting that people have bots answering question on place like AskReddit in an effort to nudge society in a certain direction? That would explain why much of Reddit, Instagram and Facebook is so completely unhinged, but that is j

The internet isn't going to die out, but it feels like it's becoming a place where you go to do a specific task and then you check out again. One interesting observation from myself: I don't "browse" the internet an

For something like customer service, I can understand why an AI would be deploy, not that I think it should, but why are so many running things like Reddit bots? A few bots here and there for experimentation, sure, but as someone else point

The Vitsoe shelving is the goal for my office, but the initial cost is just so high. I know it will last me the rest of my life, and I should just have bought it when I first wanted it 15 years ago. The chairs in front of the desk might be

How would that help with pricing? The cost of hardware is already subsidized to hell and back by investors and that's not dropping costs enough. I'm not concerned about Uber, they are way to big. I'm thinking sub 1000 employe

Okay, but what if you're not Microsofts size and don't have and R&D budget large enough to fund development of your own models and tools? This is a warning to any company, not building their own AI, that AI assisted developmen

Honestly I think they are being a bit naive and assume that the scrapers gives a shit. A few of the large AI companies might care enough to set up a custom solution for you, assuming that your dataset is sufficiently large. Most doesn'

Seeing people still using Google is, perhaps not surprising, but perhaps a little sad. Google still dominates search, while providing one of the poorest search experiences. The fact that they can continue to dominate on momentum alone is cr

It's a lovely browser, and a lot of work has clearly been put into it. I should like it, because I used Opera for ages (in the Presto era), but it's just a little to busy for me. There's way to much stuff, to many feature and
