Is that website actually associated with the creators of the model or is it just some random slop repackaging the OpenRouter listing?

Are you accusing them of astroturfing? Why is it strange for someone to say something topical?

Suleyman's entire point is that AI should not be anthropomorphized.

Microsoft is a big house, and in this case Suleyman's criticism of Anthropic's not-so-subtle attempts to convince the world that Claude has a "soul" is entirely correct.

Sure, it might take more than a single paragraph for that grating feeling to sink in, but none of the entries from the Un-Slop Fiction Prize[1] impressed me. [1] https://www.hyperstitionai.com/unslop

> There's clearly no intelligence task that AIs can't do due to some magic fundamental constraint. Yes there is: write an English paragraph that doesn't make me want to claw my eyes out. LLMs are not better than human math

They surpass the best human mathematicians in one specific way: they don't get tired or bored.

Anthropic is a company full of basilisk believers.

> At OpenAI, many have not deeply internalized the civilizational stakes. At Anthropic, the stakes are well-understood, but they are locked in a race to get there first - they believe no one else will act responsibly, so they must do it

Are there consequences for lying in sworn testimony?

Funny. Dario seems like the biggest snake in the industry to me and has leaned the hardest into doom marketing out of all of the influential leaders. With Altman (or Google), it's a transaction, and that's something I can live wit

I don't think the rando providers like Novita, Phala, AkashML, etc., which frequently provide discounts to compete for traffic, are VC-funded. They have to actually make money to stay afloat.

API are not subsidized. We know this is true from the existence of independent inference providers (a lot of which are crypto companies that would otherwise just be mining if inference weren't actually profitable).

I'm not a fan of Langley but this is just whinging about having the slightest of restrictions put on your toys.

These things aren't binary. There is a large middle ground, which is where Pangram sits today. It's good enough to be useful, but I absolutely would not be willing to fail a student on the basis of a Pangram positive. If you are i

You're upcharging 50-70 dollars to flash a firmware image?

If you take it as given that the watermark detector won't have "plausible false positives" then, sure, your argument becomes trivial. I'm not taking that as given.

We're speedrunning all of the worst parts of China, except privatized and we're not even going to get some nice trains or cheap housing out of it.

The question you're asking has nothing to do with who has the burden of proof when it comes to claims about Pangram, but I'll answer it anyway. Today, the best way is probably Pangram. Tomorrow, it might not be, especially if they

You can't make a blanket statement like this without knowing how the watermark is implemented.

Pangram is subjectively very useful and I personally subscribe, but the burden of proof is on them. The product is very much "trust me bro" and I fear that if they ever try to improve recall both their precision and reputation wil

Unfortunately for static type weenies like me (and you, presumably), types don't seem to matter at all, or Python and Javascript wouldn't be on top. There's no reason to believe that Ada's type system is so unique that i
