I'd argue that we'd need some evidence of actual intelligence, reasoning, imagination, original thinking etc. The scary bit, imho, is that even without those, a "dumb" LLM can stil…

Yes, if a turbine breaks it's possible it may hit the water and kill some fishes. If a flock of flamingos or geese are doing a low pass it's possible they get shredded by them. If …

This is future technology my friend. They only accept payments in crypto, tulips or SpaceX stock.

YCombinator S26? Guys, guys, guys... so hear me out - remember last month when we were all giddy about datacenters in space? Well, apparently investors weren't too keen on that ide…

Politeness is the correct behavior on most walks of social life, but on this case it's a bit like the "turn the other cheek" approach, but in this case, it's turn the other butt-ch…

> even anti datacenters Now, I'm a computer guy, love tech and have nothing against datacenters. But the recent anti-datacenter sentiment is not some luddite reaction. Data-centers…

Now this is a good upgrade, the 5 hour limit was very.. well.. limiting. OpenAI is having a great week!

I've also updated it. The first upgrade popup/highlight was a notification that "Codex is now the chatgpt app" and even gave me a checkbox to keep the old Codex icon. It was a smoo…

45yo here, pretty much just testifying that this is exactly what I remember, and I was young at the time. I still listen to Guns'n Roses "You should be mine" frequently mostly due …

I hear this all the time lately. Things like AI X or LLM Y can create a fully working company like "BigCorp XYZ" in N days/hours etc. But is speed of creation really the golden goo…

AI is not just disrupting companies and contributing for layoffs but it's also changing the buyers and customers. Why build a new Google when the potential Google customers now jus…

Not so much "thank you" but I find myself telling it stuff like "could you please do x etc" a lot. I've come to terms with it. If AGI ever comes it'll go like hey, at least this sa…

A good place to browse is the LocalLLaMa subreddit. [0] A good software to start is LM Studio [1]. Another popular alternative is Ollama [2]. A better software when you're used to …

I'm right there with you. These used to be the types of site designs and layouts we didn't want "back in the day" but loading them up these days is like a breath of fresh air, like…

Agreed, I'm pretty sure the Chinese are currently much, much better at long term thinking and have already reached the conclusion that llms are transformative enough generationally…

> People keep opening issues about "unsafe usage" in the codebase. This PR solves that problem at the root by introducing a yolo! macro and replacing all 10,421 instances of unsafe…

Due to the copilot nerfing recently I've switched to codex and gpt 5.4 (and now especially 5.5) have been doing pretty great. But even codex has these super weird time limits. It's…

Sorry if this seems blunt, but in what planet have you've been living in that you're still not aware that google, meta, bing and pretty much all ad companies have been serving huge…

Google Before: “Advertising funded search engines will be inherently biased toward the advertisers and away from the needs of the consumers.” After: ~75–80%+ of revenue comes from …

Long are the days of DO being a super hoster imho. Hetzner and many other "cheap" clouds ate their breakfast and their reaction was pretty much zero. Still an awesome service and p…

Brilliant, highly recommended short story! Ted Chiang rarely disappoints.

Hey Rod, your last name seems portuguese(?) Congrats on this, not only you got credits on a feature movie, you got one of the good ones. Cloud 9 for you, enjoy!
