I’m building something similar. https://github.com/YusefMosiah/Choir.chat — if you email me at yusef@choir.chat I can invite you to the iOS TestFlight alpha. Happy to talk about in…

Yes, I experienced this too. Is it a model issue or something related to the configuration and system prompts of Cursor?

It’s not just the quantity of tokens in context that matters, but the coherence of the concepts in the context. Many conflicting ideas are harder for models to follow than one larg…

I wonder if combinators could be useful for neurosymbolic AI—either in the backward pass (e.g., training models on synthetic data) or the forward pass (e.g., iterative code generat…

To throw shade without directly showing where Wolfram goes wrong is pathetic. This blog reads like a post about basketball in the 90s that doesn't mention Michael Jordan, titled "B…

I feel like I'm in a parallel universe where Stephen Wolfram doesn't exist. But he does, he's a living legend, and his seminal work, A New Kind of Science, and its core concepts, c…

Thanks, but that comparison is for old models, a different, non-shipped version of Devin called “Devin-base”, and doesn’t include Claude. Slack integration, automatically pushing t…

Looking for comprehensive benchmarks with Devin vs Cursor + Claude 3.6 vs ChatGPT o1 Pro. In my own experience using Cursor with Claude 3.5 Sonnet (new) and o1-preview, Claude is s…

The reason it makes sense to compare them is there are problems that Claude 3.5 (or o1) can’t solve. Can Devin solve them? If yes, it’s easily worth the $500. If no, it’s a harder …

This has a lot of potential. I've been using Cursor Composer heavily and it's great but buggy, and could be more agentic. After about an hour with Windsurf, I find myself frustrate…

Much of the criticism comes with a tinge of envy. "How did those guys get funding and not me?" Envy is insidious. Focusing on how other people have unfair advantages eats away at y…

OpenAI’s strategy has been bizarre since at least last November, when they launched custom GPTs, then had the boardroom coup. Since the launch of Claude 3 Opus, and then Claude 3.5…

When your CEO turns the brand from a status symbol to the opposite, it's "concerning".

Intergenerational conflict is particularly salient for wealthy Americans. The death of the boomers enables the millennials’ inheritance. Millennials blame boomers for not gracefull…

Replying to signal boost this. I too get hair loss from DHT-boosters such as creatine or the herb tribulus terrestris. I should note that I have a higher than average amount of bod…

One structural problem with macroeconomics as a discipline is that if you really understand reality better than prevailing macroeconomic theory, you have many better opportunities …

synthetic fabrics in clothing are a major source of microplastics exposure. In the future we will look back in horror at this whole industry.

I see a lot of talk about retrieval over long context. Some even think this replaces RAG. I don't care if the model can tell me which page in the book or which code file has a part…

Quora is, I think, part of the reason that OpenAI has a big lead over their rivals. Quora has, specifically for training language models, very high-signal data, when compared to Re…

This comment should be higher up. The GPT-4 API costs significantly more than the $20/mo ChatGPT Plus subscription, but it does have benefits. Namely, 128k tokens of context with t…

It’s useful if you want a more creative output. Good for brainstorming, thinking out loud, and refining ideas.

I'm building Choir. Choir humanizes ChatGPT, augmenting the AI response with messages from humans that are relevant to your prompt. Each prompt you write into Choir gets saved to o…

I'm rooting for open source models too. But I'm also a dev working to use AI models for consumer apps. And currently, open source is quite a ways behind. Consider some points: 1. G…

OpenAI has promised to pay out a rev share to GPT devs. Undisclosed is what that rev share will amount to. But presumably OpenAI would love to tout a huge number of developers maki…

The GPT Store is poised to be the biggest platform since the iOS App Store. Reason: The GPT-4 API is too expensive for most use cases. This encourages app developers to build custo…
