    Out of curiosity why do you want AGI to ‘happen FASTER’?

    The whole article boils down to two points: 1. “I’m fine with ‘em, as long as they’re useless” 2. “The only authoritarian regime which can be trusted with such power is the one whi…

    Agreed. An experiment is only as accurate as the methodology is sound. Testing each lab’s model in its own harness just tells us how well the lab has performed. For the model’s per…

    I don’t know that the methodology of the experiment is testing what it intends to test. With the current method we’re essentially testing each AI lab’s ability to efficiently extra…

    Would a fairer test not be to use the same harness for all three? I’d suspect the harness to massively affect token use and optimisation

    I could be tripping but I’m sure that is very similar to the Deepseek one from not long ago. Clearly I am too lazy to go and find it for verification.

    There are no egalitarian societies. Societies in the west favour the super rich and believing anything else is simply delusional. Sorry to burst the bubble.

    Not sure why the downvotes, it’s a quick tool? Yes it’s a ‘vibe code’ but it’s better than nothing and at least will flag if you need to do anything — verified myself.

    I've got claude to throw this together to try an help stem the flow. Obviously verify yourself but it will scan your machine to try and find any of the mentioned compromised packag…

    They forgot “I’m sorry?” meaning “You can’t have said what I though you said, can you repeat that?”.

    This sounds cool and similar to something I’ve been building! I say similar as we have different ideas and target audiences — What I’m building is a niche network specifically targ…

    How can there be democracy in an environment where freedom of thought is all but nullified due to social manipulation through mainstream media. Calling something ‘free’ doesn’t mak…

    Yeah I think the web is more a tool than anything else nowadays and it being homogeneous is a good thing. Think of roads. It’s one of few things that humans have managed to agree o…

    I’d say the only place I’ve experienced McDonald’s to be ‘extremely’ different is in India due to the obvious prevalence of vegetarianism and outlawing of beef. In other countries …

    I love the idea but this will only end up harming your SME in the long run. It would also further entrench the large corps. The only way something like this would be remotely plaus…

    Yeah that pretty much aligns with my experience in regard to feature additions. It’s great at those due to the reasons you mentioned!
