Great, because an LLM can’t “do” anything! Only an agent can, and only whichever functions/tools it has access to. So my point still stands. Also I’m referring to the post, not this comment specifically.

How, literally how? The LLM is provided a list of tab titles, and returns a classification/grouping. There is no reason nor design where you also provide it with full disk access or terminal rights. This is one of the most ignorant pos

I believe you are conflating multiple concepts to prove a flaky point. Again, unless your agent has access to a function that exfiltrates data, it is impossible for it to do so. Literally! You do not need to provide any tools to an LLM that

I still don’t understand what you mean by “what they do with your data” - because it sounds like exfiltration fear mongering, whereas LLMs are a static series of weights. If you don’t explicitly call your “send_data_to_bad_actor” function w

I think AR/VR definitely turns off a lot of people, me included. Further it is seen as anti-social and unnecessary to many. I think the lackluster sales prove the “not inevitable” point.

Really? Anthropic is /the/ AI company known for anthropomorphizing their models, giving them ethics and “souls”, considering their existential crises, etc.

Reads like parody - nothing can explain this other than corruption. Did regulators never once audit their emissions? A factory that produces that exact gas? A similar thing happened in the Netherlands with cocoa factories in Zaandam.

Ok, let’s go step by step through your processes, since I am tired of crypto nerds LARPing as Jason Bourne. How did you first obtain your crypto? What level of anonymity was available for that tx? Where do you store your crypto short and lo

Sorry, which web shops demand governmental ID? I have never had to provide them mine in any of the countries I’ve lived in. If your concern is the webshop finding out your address, well I’m unsure how you solve this when you buy with crypto

Did you know you can save even more buying B2B/wholesale? Sometimes it is more about the upfront cost and/or resulting storage space needed, than pure price efficiency.

I dunno about you, but the USA has never been known for non-violent treatment of immigrants, and if anything, 2025 is not the year to claim such a high ground.

Sadly the threshold for wealth tax in the Netherlands has always been abysmally low - even in 2025, the untaxed “wealth” is only 50k.

Sure, but affiliate != ads. Rather, both affiliate links and paid ad slots are by definition not neutral and thus bias your results, no matter what anyone claims.

If that is how you feel, why are you spending multiple comments defending the language used? It feels like there’s a reason you refuse to define your line in the sand.

You have to look at LLMs as mimicking humans more than abstract technology. They’re trained on human language and patterns after all.

100% - slurm is aimed at job maintenance and resource management on HPC clusters. Thus being a pain in the ass for the kind of fast adhoc iteration and testing that AI/ML requires.

Yeah I’m honestly unclear on Nvidia’s thinking here - inference speed is unbelievably slow for the price. Given the extreme advantage they have with CUDA and the whole AI/ML ecosystem, barely matching Apple’s M-ultra speeds is a choice

Thanks for this bleeding edge content! But please have your LLM post writer be less verbose and repetitive. This is like the stock output from any LLM, where it describes in detail and then summarizes back and forth over multiple useless se

Do you mean people bought committed plans the moment the new Anthropic models dropped yesterday? TBH I think it’s wise with LLM coding agents to try everything, and avoid sticking to one solution until the space matures.

Well, they seem to benchmark better only when giving the model "parallel test time compute" which AFAIU is just reasoning enabled? Whereas the GPT5 numbers are not specified to have any reasoning mode enabled.
