    Well they were founded by splitting off from OAI because of ethics concerns, portraying themselves as the good guys, and then turned around and did nothing different than OAI. Basi…

    Well making an actual sandbox before testing offensive abilities of their supposedly _really dangerous model_ would have been nice...

    Almost like the entire worlds manufacturing was pushed to China the last 40 years (and is now getting moved to cheaper countries with the rising Chinese middle class). Is there a s…

    IP laws work if the penalty is larger than the use case of the data. Pretty sure literally every US company is using the data knowing they won't be punished equivalently. We're liv…

    If you don't have an agent heavy workflow, you'd be surprised how far the 20$ subscription stretches. I used ~500$ of usage in the last month on a team 20$ plan.

    Really almost all benchmarks I look at have a cost per task column, which is basically the code size metric if you take an extra step
