The website from this article. It's not free. Ben Thompson releases 1 free article a week but the other 3 articles published each week requires a $15/month subscription. Ben Thomps…

I get your overall point, but that’s already a tactic used by attackers, especially in network infiltration. It shouldn’t be a surprise that an LLM would figure out to do the same …

It's not the compute hardware itself. PCC used to be data centers owned and operated by Apple, running on chips designed by Apple. With this announcement, Apple is expanding the de…

I'm replying again because another commenter showed how to link to a comment https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48456081

Thank you!

Ah thank you for that, the MacRumors article was misleading to not even have mentioned this.

There is a comment in this thread from an alleged Apple employee that said that, but it doesn't seem like it's possible to send a link for a specific comment. Over the years I've s…

From my understanding of the architecture, Apple and Google have basically developed a fork of Gemini that is built to run on Apple's PCC. There is no data being sent to any Google…

There has been anecdotal statements/blogs from Apple employees about the data privacy. They have said building some internal capabilities or user facing features are extremely diff…

They don't have the cash laying around. Their "actual" profit, meaning money added to their bank account after stock buy backs, dividends, employee stock allocations, and capex was…

You cherry-picked examples. Counter examples would be: Crowdstrike up 1067% Cloudflare up 1408% Robinhood up 148% For an index fund, I would take a break even or even a slight loss…

I'm not sure how they are related. USB-C was not really a technical challenge or had trade-offs. I'm not a hardware engineer but from what I've read, having an easily replaceable b…

I despise the Cook hate from some Apple fans. No he’s not the visionary that Jobs was. But I think he was the best person to scale Apple up to what it is today while still keeping …

To me it seems like an LLM-based implementation of automation software like Zapier. The problem with Zapier is you need services to provide APIs and Zapier needs to support those A…

Do these platforms care since the insider traders aren’t taking money from the house?

You're absolutely right and the order of operations matters. But I'm not arguing about what's right in this case. If as Dario says, that advanced AI is at the level of nuclear weap…

Potentially. Or the US government can force over control of the technology. It's impossible to predict right now the implications of this technology in 5 years, let alone 10 years.…

You're right in those cases. But if what Dario says is true, that advanced AI is on the scale of nuclear weapons, then that is a threat to the power and sovereignty of the governme…

That's not what is happening, yet. If this technology is at the scale of nuclear weapons, you don't think the government is going to step in and take control of it?

I don't think he ever said in the article that he is not making the argument about the importance of democratic oversight, if anything, in the conclusion, he says: "The way to addr…

But that's the problem with this. The vast majority of the spend is going to be on the Nvidia chips which have a shelf life of 3-5 years. They are not making any significant long t…

I was going to comment this exact thing about stacking plates. I think most servers/ex-servers also do this regardless of age. It's even easier to do than returning a shopping cart…

The only downside of this in the US is that homeless people will tend to hang around Aldi's asking people if they can return their cart to get the coin. Most of them are friendly a…

Still, I think there needs to be a specific term for a company that has recently had a funding round and will likely IPO in the future, like Stripe. That's a different category tha…
