You don’t need to detect it, you just need to incentivize employees and competitors to snitch on companies using unapproved models.

this is the backup strategy. the "AI doesn't pan out" scenario is basically if claude and openai go bankrupt, we continue running local models on our hardware. there isn't a future where we all just decide that nah, we

it's just a thing to show off in their trade show booth. maybe there will be some engineer on the project who learns something useful while working on this that can be applied to some actual project, but this is pretty clearly not an a

locally on what hardware? something like the new dgx spark, ryzen halo, or mac studio will cost you ~ $4k plus whatever you pay for power. at the rate AI is currently progressing, i think you'd be optimistic to consider that as havin

the pricing page doesn't seem to call it out anymore, but the claim on z.ai coding plan used to be 3x the usage of the equivalent-price claude plan. whether that's accurate i don't know, but just based on api pricing GLM is

i think the reason this works is an implication that the article doesn't explicitly cover: if you tell somebody you're going to to do something, you're not asking them to take responsibility. you're telling them that yo

apparently i'm also a minecraft youtuber. i have never played minecraft or posted a youtube video. i think somewhere along the lines the models might have just gotten "online handle" and "minecraft content creator"

this was the response the last time this came up here. you can do all kinds of nonstandard stuff if you control the server, the client, and any steps in between. the point of standards is for when you don't control it all. put your ser

that is theoretically true. but i switched to the v3-compatible ublock origin lite a year ago and i've noticed essentially no difference in the performance. all the ads are blocked, just like they were with the v2-compatible adblocke

they're spending $11B on compute because they need the compute and that's the market rate for it. it's the same price Anthropic is paying to spacex for compute. but if they boost the spacex stock for the right amount of time

yeah, i think a lot of people on hacker news basically agree with that old meme that says "The most recent piece of technology I own is a printer from 2004 and I keep a loaded gun ready to shoot it if it ever makes an unexpected noise.

ace appears to be an experiment to make a multi-user experience on top of the codex UI. the copilot app looks more like just a straight clone of the codex UI (and the new antigravity UI, which is also a straight clone of the codex UI)

for developers working in claude code, sure. but there's ai users who don't use claude code. chatGPT business and enterprise tiers integrate with MCP servers controlled by your organization admin.

right, but if you have 300 employees using ai and you want to share a skill with all of them, and you want to be able to push an update to the skill, mcp provides you with a standard way to do that. i dont understand why people are so inves

i think it is on purpose, but not for the cynical reason of burning more tokens. developers like knobs, it helps us feel like we're in control. even when we're not. so the ai companies give us knobs and buttons and sliders to ma

the battlefield sounds much easier. worst case scenario you kill somebody, but that's what you're trying to do anyways. if you kill somebody while trying to render a pelican on a bicycle it's a real problem.

most jurisdictions mandate some minimum noise level for pedestrian safety, and cars have to implement artificial noise at low speeds to meet that requirement. (above a fairly slow speed, the tire noise is more than loud enough)

Yes, but it still seems like a cool choice worth talking about. They could have made a totally fake engine noise, instead they mic’d up the axles.
