At best this is a small piece IMO, but this does look like a piece of it, well done. At least based on my own experience exposing sys prompts from niche llm models in my saas niche. Should be higher upvoted. For those asking for proof, unfo

So when do we investigate USA companies for use of Chinese made products :)

by troglodytetrain 2mo ago
So, no offense but DeepSeek and other Chinese providers are the ones actually advancing the price-perf here. Being less expensive than Anthropic isn't impressive.

DeepSeek is amazing, they are, from a cost/benefit literally an order of magnitude or more better than the 'SOTA' models, and yet no one really talks about them. I'm using them for my micro-saas, and they have made my ni

This is very exciting, my own niche micro-saas has already been able to make heavy use of DeepSeek-V4-Flash for my use case, I am looking forward to seeing how performance improves.

So, at this point any company that doesn’t want ai agents navigating on their webpages have to kill the accessibility. And they do and will. Blind users are a tiny tiny part of users. But hurting usability for the disabled is bad PR. So of

How can they expect to A. Get away with political fallout of making local llm use illegal? B. Somehow enforce this? C. Do this without killing all scientific research in the USA (local llm seems to have a broad definition and I don’t trust

Government solve problem. Problem gone. No more problem ever. Problem come back? Because problem complex problem based on a large number of interdependent variables as is common is real life ecosystems? No way. -Brought to you by grug gpt.

So, just be careful with this, it very likely is switching to other less capable model hence the cost reduction. So looks like Fable but isn’t. So you are doing extra work when you could just switch the model back to opus 4.8 instead.

So it is funny satire. But my wife is finishing up her PHd and according to her: all students are using ai and pretending they are not because the PI and other older leadership treat any use of ChatGPT or similar as plagiarism and not allow

so just a quick counterpoint ---> I played around with qwen 2.5 4B recently locally. An older model and a tiny model. Tested this model with optimized harness and it was good enough that it was able to complete (sometimes) a full job app

yeah, my personal work experience has taught me that extra productivity is actual really just a problem for many companies. You do more work now I have to too. We don't have to work because we have special relationships with or as gate

by troglodytetrain 3mo ago
So, maybe a dumb question, but do we have any real reason to believe that productivity at any level is actually associated with the actual underlying profit and earnings of any of the companies that are heavily 'knowledge work' fo

Another great product from anthropic where I need to pay hundreds upon hundreds of dollars for the privilege of being the unpaid QA team for the multi trillion dollar corporation.

by troglodytetrain 3mo ago
Sounds like something that could be pretty useful as a 'validation' subagent. Provide it the details/context related to a larger LLM's run or turn in a harness and have it act as a gatekeeper. At this size and speed it l

The current op manual for anthropic appears to be: A. Do shady shit to try to hurt competitors/stop distillation/stop pro plan users using other coding harnesses/etc. B. Any shady shit that gets viral enough gets a PR apology

Well, that is one way to rationalize, as I guess there is an infinite number of ways to do so. The point remains, only one singular choice guarantees your own safety. And another has a Chance of death. Take the stupid choice because you thi

Senior engineers have always owned the application (by knowledge not by law). And that has never been a problem. The real problem is, that without new Juniors there will never be new Seniors, and your company will collapse when your Seniors

by troglodytetrain 5mo ago
The problem isn't rephrased. Option Red = 0% chance of death, Option Blue = chance of death but maybe you can be the hero and save everyone. So we all choose option Red and you, the hero, chose Blue. Congratulations, we will write some

by troglodytetrain 5mo ago
Its an interesting psychological test. Because, no, I don't agree, red is the moral choice and also the most rational. Those who think the population is too stupid to behave in regards to their own self preservation might choose blue i

by troglodytetrain 5mo ago
I think this hypothetical captures a sort of hero complex. You think everyone is too stupid to choose the right choice so you will save us all... Except we all chose red because its the obvious choice and now you are dead.
22.
by troglodytetrain 5mo ago
Please explain. Red guarantees safety. Why wouldn't everyone pick red? The only option that leads to a statistical chance of death is blue?
23.
by troglodytetrain 5mo ago
I would describe it like this. We are all standing on the edge of a cliff. You can choose the 'Red' option. That option means you don't jump off the cliff. Or you can choose the 'Blue' option. You jump off the cliff

by troglodytetrain 5mo ago
If red pressers always survive then everyone should pick red. Its incredibly and obviously so and I'm concerned by the fact that so many commenters aren't aware of this.
25.
by troglodytetrain 5mo ago
Your entire logical chain, and your self importance, well, it explains why I'm always picking red. If you win and most pick blue, I'm safe, otherwise, I'm also safe. You get to feel intellectually superior choosing the only o

I'm not aware of a tool that does this yet. If you find it or build it, please let me know as I would love a tool with that functionality. And I'm sure I'm not the only one.

by troglodytetrain 5mo ago
I guess thats one way to look at it. But thats morality for you. I'd just suggest maybe get less involved with the internet and as the kids say these days 'go touch some grass'. Because, frankly, I don't think the averag

I am so happy to see that the US government will quickly and immediately prosecute and imprison someone for “insider trading” on Polymarket, while your average Congress member can “trade” with complete impunity.

Anthropic definitely appears to be heavily hamstringing the LLM response quality as a sort of rate limiting implementation. I've built my own custom coding harness at my slow corp job, as for some reason they give us unlimited Anthropi
