    This is obviously cool and useful so kudos, but wow security researchers have to throw their hands up all the time. Now we open another attack surface where you can ask a remote ag…

    Zooming out you see that books, pen and paper are all technology. Like even school and language is technology. Given that AI exist maybe we can roll back some of the school/univers…

    Well, we can't have the counterfactual world but could it be that without computers, Internet or AI, there might be no/less growth? I somehow doubt that AI will accelerate growth c…

    If it's made for LLMs, the spec should be yaml not json. Way more token efficient

    It looks cool but how can I use it? Somehow i don't want to go hunting for access through the rabbit hole that is Microsofts Corporate blog.

    Somehow the blog post seems naive. Yes GLM 5.2 is good and cheaper per token, but margins are a result of supply and demand. Now demand for quality and quantity of tokens is increa…

    ASML, SAP, ARM, Spotify, ... How do you define biggest? Can't be by market cap.

    This is called mechanistic interpretability. There is lots of fascinating insights already since you can do basically everything down to the neuron or weight level thousands of tim…

    We outsourced it for 2.5k (extra) and it was still painful, took almost 2 months and worst of all wasted so much time and focus. The worst was sitting at the notary, and getting re…

    Don't fall for it. Its a trick question. Capitalism made everybody replaceable a long time ago. :P The more interesting question is: Has the ease of replacibility increased because…
