    Why 2025 though? It didn't yet pass the test of time and there is not enough failure rate data on it. Toyotas(Lexus) do have serious quality issues too, rarely but that happens for…

    I'm surprised it is that low. Are not all top AI labs "cheating" and workaround LLMs's low sample efficiency by hiring people to generate more data points - similar problems with a…

    Are logs somehow used for the purpose of training their own models or something else?

    Don't big tech ask meaningless LeetCode problems because it serves as a proxy for IQ?

    That is informative, I was suspecting that is how models improve their performance on some convoluted "non-googlabe" benchmarks like SimpleBench, that is how, they just got the tas…

    I guess that is good, competition should lower the margins with the time as it doesn't seem like any of AI labs have a particularly strong moat.

    I thought usually founders try to pivot till they run out of money. I wonder if that is good or bad for a serial entrepreneurs if they decide to shut it down instead of pivoting?

    What is this, Series for ants? It barely covers Andrej's sign-on bonus.

    What type of projects you work on, in particular how rich it is in novelty, non-googlable data points and non-trivial project-specific deviations from industry standards?

    Comment #48262879

    I wonder if it is reasonable to assume the propagation of shortages further. At first it was GPUs, then RAM, then what?
