I find these sorts of takes to be tiresome. It is absolutely true there is a lot of hype around AI. Also it is true that many AI companies try to shove AI into everything without necessarily thinking wherer it is a good idea or whether it u

I assume there is a military angle here.

Presumably the browser installed by users is an efficient way of scraping websites that are normally hard to scrape from OpenAI's servers.

From reading this, it seems that one thing one can do is to be force separation of the build from testing, so the build never has access to binary code that can be injected.

There seems to be a lot of overlap of this with MCP tools. Also presumably if there are a lot of skills, they will be too big for the context and one would need some way to find the right one. It is unclear how well this approach will scal

I like Gemini 2.5 as a chatbot, but it has been mostly useless as an agent comparing to Claude Code (at least for my complex tasks)

My recent experience of Gemini CLI in comparison to Claude code is very negative. For a complex task of trying to migrate some code base from CPU-only to GPU computations Claude was really helpful, and allowed me to conduct a range of exper

"A PhD on average takes 5 to 6 years of time." -- this is only true in the US. In UK/Europe PhDs take 3-4 years.

Bizarre conclusions when on average all the formats perform poorly with average accuracy of 50%. Sure 60% is better than 40% but they are both unusable if you actually care about numbers...

In my experience of trying to do things with gemini cli and claude code, claude code was always significantly smarter. gemini cli makes so many mistakes and then tries hard to fix them (in my applications at least).

To me it's a question of benefits vs drawbacks. In my understanding ID cards are beneficial for 1) Running government services 2) Fraud prevention 3) Some immigration control (as at least some reason why people try to migrate to UK is

It is an interesting study. In terms of new languages and AI, I would like to see if anyone comes up with a more AI friendly language, as opposed to human friendly. I.e. programming languages were often designed to be easier to read/w

It's BS. Having a single ID instead of having to show a gas bill to prove your address is the right approach. Most European countries have a single ID card, and that's perfectly fine. In fact anyone who drives in the UK already ha

I was always wondering if every car around you had a Lidar, would these systems be confused by light emitted by other cars ?

I am so glad I left the States. It is horrible to live in a country where on a whim of a deranged leader your whole life can be upended. No country is perfect, but the way US now behaves towards people on visas is not tolerable. (And it was

Very bizarre announcement. I don't think I want an LLM near my password. Even the announcement of partnership makes me worried about 1password.

I always read these stories and worry that I will fall for something like this at some point. With all the complexity around authentication, 2FA, backup codes, text messages, cloud-sync, pass keys etc, I find it impossible to be confident t

A user for example. By default nothing would be in the whitelist. Then you would add things to the whitelist manually. Since it's not that frequent this needs to be done, that probably would be a useful extra step to stop phishing.

It seems to me that having an email client that simply disables all the links in the email is probably a good idea. Or maybe, there should be explicit white-listing of domains that are allowed to be hyperlinks.

I completely disagree. As a scientist who does a lot of coding, the modern LLM tools give me ability to code something which previously I could not afford, because I simply did not have time for it. Now if I have an idea, I may be able to
