It has nothing at all to do with quality. How the art is made is as much a part of the art as the said artwork itself. Anytime a piece of art really moves me, I proceed to study the inspiration behind it, what the creative process of the ar

Bitwarden is free and in my experience does a better job than 1 password. Tho he could have vibecoded his own 1-password, I would be a bit careful doing that though

How’d you replace YouTube Music? Do you mean you listen to adds but on your own vibe coded app or do you bypass the ads somehow? Curious

Yeah I think we need a society wide ban to support artists, sue me.

Yeah I remember Ladybird, and Serenity OS starting as a learning project to teach engineers that a Browser can be made from scratch by a relatively small team. I even remember the author claiming he did it to occupy himself as he was trying

I think there are plenty of us, outside of tech circles who want it banned too. It is one of the least popular technologies in existence. Unfortunately I don’t think it will be banned anytime soon, but I do hope we eventually ban it.

I don’t see why a president can’t write a “No Generative AI in art” executive order, society has banned plenty of other pointless stuff, I would vote for them to ban this.

As a society we need to start seriously planning on how to ban AI in art. - I don’t want to listen music with AI generated vocals or tunes. - I don’t want to watch TV shows or movies with AI generated scripts. - I don’t want to read novels

If you were an average tailor in 1700s, you would have to transition into operating sewing machines in a sweatshop. Same for coders, time to transition into the intellectual sweatshop, this one at least seems to be more comfortable. Couture

These ratings seems very wrong, i have beaten GPT Astra max thinking in chess and my rating is close to 1500. The ratings here seem more accurate: https://chessbenchllm.onrender.com/ GPT-6 almost never suggests an illegal m

I’m not a mathematician, but if I were I would imagine the main attraction would be the act of thinking hard and solving problems. Maths felt like the ultimate profession for someone who loved puzzle solving. If you delegate the thinking, a

End of the decade is my prediction. We are there GPT Astra shows signs of it. Give it a few more generations. Now if AI robot with compute onboard the robot, that might be multiple decades away, I don’t see compute becoming that abundant an

This is a terrible example. Cars qualitatively opened up something that humans could never do before. Same with the computer. What about LLMs? LLMs just replace what you were already doing, but don’t qualitatively open up all that much in t

100% agree, their utopia sounds far worse than their “humans will go extinct” which still sounds implausible to me. I would rather die than live in a WallE society, and I hate that they’re getting trillions trying to force us there

I can also play that game, You are effectively calling for enabling 24/7 non stop worldwide surveillance of everyone, everywhere all the time. The big difference is my negative is concrete, possible and enabled in 2026 by GPT Astra whi

Numbers from GPT Astra - Shopify has 3000 engineers as of 2026 - Google Chrome when released in 2008 conservatively had ~ 60 engineers. - GTA 5 in its credits had 150 software engineers. Surprising even to me who has had many an experience

Both things can be true: 1. OpenAI when using your chats in pretraining is improving its model’s intuition. The model parameter size is massive, and while the data is OOM larger it is plausible that model remembers stuff about chats that im

It demotivates mathematicians. That’s a pretty large negative!

Any mathematicians here, does it read like a slop proof or a good proof. Yesterday the “concurrent work” was claiming that the proof is pure slop and he needed lots of time to clean it up, curious if OAI also ended up with such a proof!

I’m always confused, are all these shapes programmatically generated or are they downloaded from some source? Also I think Astra looks the best and has the best functionality. Also shocked how much better GLM is on the Non Codex harnesses.

Even their utopian views feel dystopian. Take solace in the fact, that it looks like it’ll take trillions to achieve, probably one of the most expensive technological buildouts of all time?

Not always, there can be bugs in lean. Recently some guy with claimed to disprove Collatz conjecture, only to turn out that there was a bug in lean. I actually have no idea, how anyone can be sure this 13 M lines is meaningful

Lots of us feel that way. It was motivating to do it, when it couldn’t be 1-shotted by AI in a weekend
