    This makes me wonder if AI companies even have a MOAT in the first place. All requests to an LLM are idempotent, for every API call you need to send it the entire conversation hist…

    -Chinese labs only have 5-10% the valuation of OpenAI/Anthropic Another reason could be that they want to close the gap between their valuations and OpenAI/Anthropic. Either Chines…

    I don’t know why India is mentioned here. I live in India and have used 1Gbps Fiber since almost 10 years and pay only 40$ for it. Internet access in India is quite cheap and fiber…

    These are the same people who will give the LLM full write access on the disk and complain that it performed destructive actions. If you don’t want an AI Agent to read private repo…

    If you think in terms of ownership, even then digital is not that bad. I’ve owned digital games since Xbox 360 and I can still play them to this day on my Xbox series X. But not al…

    Nobody downloads music these days and everybody just streams. Audio at 24 bit still takes a small fraction of the bandwidth that 1080p video takes, so I don’t understand the hate f…

    I can do everything on my bank app from prepaying small amounts of a loan, spend analysis, opening fixed deposits and such.

    Claude is also weird for being the only coding assistant that for some reason doesn't support AGENTS.md. Codex, Amp, Cursor all of them support it and read from it, but not claude …

    It’s not just the hyperscalers, it’s also the boom in personal projects being launched. AI has massively decreased the bar to entry, and a lot more people need servers compared to …

    So where does the api key reside? You can’t ship it on the iOS client since anyone can read and abuse it

    AI is not supposed to write excellent code, it is supposed to write the “most likely” code which equates to your average engineer. People who are below the curve are going to see a…

    None of these companies have any MOAT. LLMs are getting better at a rapid pace and in a year or two, Chinese LLMs should easily catch up with the best of the models. Models have ki…

    As a hypothetical example, what happens if you could train a custom LLM with your own chats. And it responds to people, and gives the same response as you would. Would that be a fo…

    This isn’t even a research paper. Is there some code or results from experiments where we can see the speed up?

    Even for making new music Suno is a godsend. My workflow has changed from making a whole track to just creating some nice loops with my favorite VSTs and asking Suno the rest. I ge…

    You didn’t break API Gateway or bypass it, you broke the company using incorrect api gateway config. Your title is clickbait

    If your company can afford fully speced out M3/4 MacBook, then it can also afford cloud AI costs.

    Or have an a11y standard for MCPs, where they can't show UI elements and have to only respond with text so that Voice Readers could work out of the box. This would be a game change…

    In a real world test you would have a tool call for the LLM which is a bit high level like GoTo(object) and the tool calls another program which identities the objects in frame and…

    Replicating features from existing software has become extremely easy due to AI. I won’t be surprised if open source is able to easily catch up with the bigger products.
