Except for the fact that Opus 4.8 is not good. Constant hallucinations, doesn't use the web very intentionally until you explicitly ask it to and it nopes out rather quick on benign items. Anthropic has been very disappointing as of la

They've done this in the past. Between 1998 and 2002, DRAM manufacturers conspired to fix prices and were sued by the DoJ. The companies included Samsung, Hynix, Infineon, Micron, and others. They coordinated through phone calls and m

Z. Total dumpster fire of a company. They acquired a company called Edgewise and it was so bad that after a number of P0 outages in customer networks they pulled it from the market. I was there less than 6 months after constantly arguing w

This looked great until I saw that list. It feels, to me, as if all of these companies are scared of the risk. The risk that decades of tech debt and shitty products sold at a premium built on other people's work will now come back to

Why can't they do it? Jim Keller's company is also taking a different approach [0]. The simple fact that we think what we have now is scalable is basically what you are saying can't be done: " just chain a bunch of chips

The irony here is, according to you, my take is the binary one. When your response is: well, we can all just run it on our devices - we don't need any other options! You seem to be cool with a very small and gated ecosystem with whatev

Yes, you are missing the point. 1) It's a demo. [0] 2) It hasn't been updated for 4+ months. You don't need LLMs for everything. That is 100% the point. You can burn down the world with all of your frontier LLMs that are bein

All social media is a toxic, ad-driven, algo-fueled surveillance tool at this point. Just regulate it all, equally, into the ground if we want to do society a service. The fact that China's version of TikTok is nothing like what'

What about 15k tokens per second? [0] I remember looking at this earlier in the year and it being so fast that it feels fake. And, yes, this model is old - but still awesome for what it is. [0] https://chatjimmy.ai/

I think this is the rub the enterprise will be forced to grapple with. Not everyone is going to get $200 worth of value for the organization. In fact since it's not a restricted tool some will waste time and company resources using it.

This type of "resource curse" paints a perfect picture of why US based frontier providers are set up to fail. They want, and have, few restrictions and along with that unlimited warchest. The Chinese on the other hand aren't

Except Anthropic didn't produce the movie. So it's more like one bootlegger sold the DVD for $20 and their competitors are undercutting them for $1. Who's the bigger thief here now? Capitalism as intended!
