So this wording is really interesting in the bug bounty sense and I’m curious if you know how it would be handled. If someone hits an unsecured API, receives information, and notifies the company of this while also requesting a bounty, woul

On your last paragraph the simplest answer as to why we haven’t seen that is because they don’t want to show us because it wouldn’t paint a great picture for them. Regarding Gish galloping, I don’t think you can Gish Gallup in writing. The

Here, if this is just misrepresentations and logical fallacies than it should be easy to explain the main point away: How are OAI and Anthropic reasonably and reliably going to make the profits they need to to hit these targets? By Q1 2028:

What data here is false? How do you gish gallop in writing?

Yeah, again this is the typical response from those who would rather stick their heads in the sand than face the reality that the spending is untenable. They never refute his claims with anything substantial. They just call you “anti ai” or

This seems to be the standard response to Ed’s work. He presents facts and figures that backup his theories in a painstaking manner and then detractors reply with something like this. Following HNs guidelines, my most charitable interpretat

So where would this increased demand come from? We see that these companies have no moat. We see that companies are already balking at the cost and are increasingly looking at what the actual return of their current spend is, let alone when

Again, Zitron provides the numbers for his theories and they’re very compelling. I’m still not seeing any equally compelling arguments as to why this is not the case. Only accusations of doomerism and links to him calling the bubble collaps

Yeah, no, just use K3. I’m a member of this and it’s still a pain for some specific for and the output is on par with K3 which has so far been a breeze to work with. Not to mention the price is slightly better per task.

My personally anecdote on poor LLM usage making things take longer: I had a side (still work) project I wanted to complete that was extremely simple. In my AWS account create an EC2 image builder pipeline that set up a specific component. J

Less about that. More about “not accidentally funding terrorism” (or, more realistically, not giving money to sanctioned countries which can have significant consequences).

Honestly with that kind of usage how do you even know what you’re delivering?

I have staff ranging from 10 years of IR experience to right out of college. I can tell you that there is an enormous gap in ability between them despite them both using LLMs for daily IR work. The reasons aren’t complicated. The senior res

6 years of planning can be thrown away if the community is just now becoming aware of the potential impact. It’s not on the community to adhere to the companies looking to make a profit while ignoring how their presence affects those around

Hey now that’s disingenuous and a misrepresentation of what happened. They didn’t block internet access.

How do you build a company around a flawed version of a solved product? People with no security experience in the space will tell you “it’s hard” but it’s far from it.

I’m a cybersecurity guy. >” you only need to find one flaw to exploit a system” I see this everywhere, especially in these threads and it’s not even remotely true for modern architecture. Between principles like zero-trust, defense in de

Monitoring for sandbox escapes (and sandbox design in general) is easily done these days. It has nothing to do with nice. These are bare minimum standards we should expect from “big companies” with near infinite resources. Their constant dr

Right? Like I feel like I’m taking crazy pills. OAI (and now the other OAI companies not wanting to be left out) are running around announcing they started a forest fire through negligence and incompetence and people are like “Wow they used

I mean are they wrong to want credit? This isn’t like “I brought coffee to the meetups and corrected some spelling errors” but more like OAI pulling the “you made this? I made this” meme.

I gathered that the most recent advances haven’t been in capabilities of the model but more the way that it’s able to be employed (most recently agents).

It’s extremely aggravating that AI firms are given the easy task of selling and advertising a product that has obvious potential and uses but feel the need to over hype more and more to the point where the actual uses aren’t even the focus

It’s a little worrying when larger news outlets start picking up on what Zitron has been saying: https://www.wheresyoured.at/the-ai-demand-bubble/ AI as a tool is useful and will stick around but the funding acrobatics

The two times I tried to use fable I had it attempt something I had already had Opus 4.6 do with no issues. It blasted through 10% of my weekly allowance on a 100$ a month sub and produced something broken and nonsensical.

Your example article of a “more balanced take” actually supports what Zitron is saying. >They are two-party round-trips: a hyperscaler invests in an AI lab that is also its cloud customer, so the investment comes back as cloud revenue. T

Tech company drama *not on the front page. This has been front page material for multiple non-tech media outlets. Though I don’t know how much I would believe that this is them trying to taint a jury pool.

It’s the insinuation of racism regarding the “mixing up Asian last names” bit that’s really got me feeling like their response is the public appeal move.
