    This is a national security nightmare. For better or worse, fossil fuels have massive energy densities, which makes economics in defense context (and others) extremely favorable. E…

    I imagine part of the performance issue is their encryption flow? Their search is sub par even with the on-device search enabled, but besides that i’ve been a happy customer for a …

    You can just make the tool calls restricted/scoped to whatever the calling account has access to (or in this case the repo) That way even if the LLM broke out of the system prompt …

    I think this seems purposeful, as there's 2 opposing forces at play: - Have a model that follows the users instructions - Have a model that follows the system prompt instructions m…

    Accountants can be expensive, especially if your books are messy, or have poor accounting practices from the start. Systems like quickbooks, hubspot, payment processors all have ti…

    I’d slightly disagree, the profile of people who go missing is as important as a random chance there is a coincidence. Former military officers, high-level scientists. These indivi…

    Unfortunately much of China’s perverse tactics (they’ve done this in a wide array of industries) is to steal patented tech and trade secrets from companies outside China, subsidize…

    For your first point, on the off chance they have other equipment capable of surpassing MANPADS I’d prefer as a passenger they just fly around. Second point, it’s not obvious if it…

    I wouldn’t be surprised if in the next 5-10 years the new and popular programming language is one built with the idea of optimizing how well LLM’s (or at that point world models) u…

    As I understand it, it was in part about their Azure miss more about capital expenditure and market anxiety around their OpenAI investment ROI. Also a portion of their Azure spend …

    Too little, too late. Switched to Brave and haven’t been happier. Firefox lost the plot years ago.

    I think it has a potential to raise a lot of the salaries of blue-collar positions in middle America, and then create demand for the trades over the next decade or so. I find it un…

    Despite how obtuse the current administration views are, this has been true for decades. The churn of new papers and hype around medicine/biotech is nothing new. Says nothing about…

    Its just another layer of potential misdirection that BBC themselves, and many other news orgs, perpetuate. Im not surprised. From first hand experience -> secondary sources -> jou…

    Defaulting to China stealing IP is a perfectly reasonable first step. China is known for their countless theft of Europe and especially American IP, selling it for a quarter of the…

    Agree, I think the high cost of full time hires for entry level software jobs (total comp + onboarding + mentoring) vs investing in AI and seeing if that gap can be filled is a far…

    Ah yes, the secret design of pistols which go off at the slightest bump (its a lottery, only 1 in 1,000 chance!) Revoke contracts, investigate the leadership who accepted the contr…

    I agree its a popular excuse, however unlike the blockchain craze there’s legitimate use cases of productivity improvements with AI. And if you can (in some cases) substantially in…
