Brilliant take. Competition nowadays is so intense and fine-grained. Every new innovation or exploration is eventually folded into the existing exploits especially in monopolistic markets. Pricing models don’t change, revenue streams neithe

These are economic studies on AI's impact on productivity, jobs, wages, global inequality. It's important to UNDERSTAND who benefits from technology and who gets left behind. Even putting the positive impacts of a study like this

One feature I'd love is a toggle to lock the input to the bottom of the terminal. It's a big inconvenience to have to scroll up and down between the chat and the input when responding to changes.

How is it a “fascinating learning exercise” when the intention is to run the model in a closed loop with zero transparency. Running a black box in a black box to learn? What signals are you even listening to to determine whether your contex

So it took the author 6 months and several 1-to-1s with the creator to get value from this. As in he literally spent more time promoting it than he did using it. And it all ends with the grift of all grifts: promoting a crypto token in a no

I’m the author but not the poster. I didn’t change the title. Maybe the mods did? The title came to me as an epiphany too haha, shame to see it get changed.

Even if they're at the ARPU of Twitter that's $18-20 (will take them a while to reach it imo). At 800M WAU that's up to $16B in additional revenue. This is assuming they don't build the vertical stack at all which is unl

Excellent advice for the 'House of Cards' politics of big tech, but it’s essentially corporate pacifism. In any other setting you can't afford to watch money and motivation burn just to stay 'politically solvent'. (

Long read but worth it. a16z paved the path for a large chunk of the industry even if engineers don't like to admit it. Even something like this would have been impossible to realise unless you had an engineering background and were ha

Like he said a lot of OSS works on tiered features, most is free, premium at a premium. But the main issue is that doesn't work anymore if LLMs have been trained entirely on the free and can generate the premium with ease.

The irony of this being completely written by Claude. When you’ve worked with Claude intimately you instantly recognise it’s writing: - littered with “It’s not X, it’s Y.” - Short. Punchy. Triplets. - Overexaggeration.
