Have you seen how much college football coaches make? The world collectively spends trillions training, and entertaining and then watching people kick and hit balls around but somehow working with AI is preposterous for less money.

Thats like saying I need a car with hotswappable engines. Sure. But you wouldn't want that car anymore.

Even a long while ago it was estimated that every Google search cost google several cents (and that they made back 10 cents). Google also uses AI for search results. Thus its not inconceivable that openai can make money here.

Humans have proven to be incapable of making real progress in science given the effort. Especially academia. We haven't cured many diseases and cancer when we should have (and no im not an amateur and yes I do believe we can "cure

The amplifying mirror is not just a characteristic, but the fundamental driving force of LLMs. With every token it consumes, its primary goal is to understand who you are and what you intend. If you type Hola thats sufficient to tell it so

You cant fail over to a different model though. Even failing over to a different provider isn't always as simple as set it and forget it. For example bedrock doesn't support the tool search tool feature from anthropic.

I was reading your comment, agreeing with it but still feeling why this is a bad comment. It just occurred to me that an anecdotal statement like this is the antithesis of scientific discourse. We have a paper here, trying to answer a quest

There was never a time when a book gave the public an overview of the universe. ABHOT was so popular for being a book no one actually read, theres even an index named after Hawking due to it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki&#x

The important point is that your benchmark is pretty much irrelevant for the actual usage. Thus whatever conclusion you draw is not just irrelevant but misleading.

Thats not absurd. Do you know what software engineers make? Do you know what a Starbucks coffee costs? 50 bucks is nothing for someone in that life.

Im just curious how this is going to play out.. Will anthropic just stop releasing its stuff on bedrock now? Will they try to start moving their operations out of the US? If so, to where? I know everyones excited about Football and the Knic

Devils advocate, I also vehemently shat on RNAi therapeutics a decade back. We do have RNAi therapies in market now though. I do think Crispr will find its place similarly.

I regularly hit usage limits on CC but thats when im in the zone, and do 5 things in parallel. Thats like 5 hours a week. I also hit limits if I do something important, at which point I make it do a loop with significant subagent counts to

Such an elegant finding. I only wish they did slightly more to validate the result further. Depleting all macrophages is a fairly drastic step. Heck, you dont even know what other tissue this affected. Theres no correlation that only liver

Thats not a bubble though, thats just Stockholm syndrome or genuine acceptance of this behavior as being acceptable or even perfect.

They never advertised that they did. Its not even real true AI. They just struggle with new scenarios. People drive into floods too. They just don't get sensational articles written about it, just posted on reddit.

The first step I do when I do any meaningful side project is to set up rds with snapshots. So any startup that doesnt do this one basic step already deserves to fail in my opinion. Then next I've used AI agents like crazy, we even have

The comparison is not valid. When writing let's say a novel, you cant just tell some random dude "write chapter 4" - you cant outsource it to a human so it only makes neither can you outsource it to ai. Software engineering i

I would argue unconscious in the anesthesia sense is not the same as "not having consciousness" at a categorical level.
