Had to ctrl+f for someone saying this. I typically do lots of mini calls for research (100s of millions or something in that ball park). Newer models made that absolutely impossibl…

It means only those vetted will be allowed to use frontier models (i.e. let's pace ourselves and not share the frontier broadly)

Does Chrome use URLs you click on to help its indexer? EG if someone sends you a link to www.example.com/mysecretpage and somehow it appears in Google later. That might be a case w…

How believable is this benchmark? EG maybe opus was training on this? (You can try to identify the IP of wherever previous ARC questions came from)

Random question, but has there been any improvement in OCR/document understanding in these newer models? Last time I checked (1mo ago) SOTA was still sadly Gemini, unless you wante…

gemini 2 and 2.5 were great models for quick-and-dirty OCR It was fine to lose 2, but 2.5 will be dearly missed as it hit the sweet spot in terms of cost-performance :/

At least in economics it can easily be 1-5 years until you go from draft to journal. In the meantime, you want a way for others to easily cite your paper, to make different revisio…

I tested Fable through Cursor; asked for ideas on how to make a data website I have less "Claude-like" (IYKYK what are the usual tells), and it spun out the most useless, Claude-li…

I really wonder what's up with that. Also remember the crazy Stanford guys.. did something flip in their brain or were they just always like that?

Same path as you. Went from $60 cursor plan (often exceeding it which costed more in API) to a limitless $100 codex plan where I basically say "read the markdown and implement the …

I created pages with Claude before and it's very very obvious when you see one. From the font choice to the color palette, and the style of the boxes. In fact if anyone has an effe…

Holy F.. $3 .. once I'm done with my base cursor allocation, each nontrivial question costs $5 . And yes, I'm now switching to a mix of codex and ds4pro

I'm looking at Schwab (and saw a few others) and couldn't find anything: https://www.schwab.com/learn/story/primer-on-wash-sales I would assume this is not an ETF but sth else?
