#22This is really cool. Do you have an API? :)
We do, and we thought about opening this as a part of other APIs we already have. How would you price this?
You could do a hobby plan which is free up to a certain no. of requests/tokens per day or hour so developers can start building without any friction (I think this is important and sort of expected as most beloved dev tools do it). You can minimize your costs by offering this on shared resources so inference time is a little slow and API can go down at times when there is high usage but its free so users wont mind.
And then have pro plans for higher usage / 99.9999 SLA / fast inference etc (maybe a min subscription with a pay if you go over per 100k tokens option...similar to Vercel with bandwidth and serverless functions).

#23This is much better than I expected, it's given a good answer for everything I've tried so far. https://labs.kagi.com/ai/sum?url=https://timecube.2enp.com > Dr. Gene Ray is a scientist and philosopher who has discovered the Time Cube, a mathematical proof that there are four simultaneous 24 hour days in a single rotation of the Earth. He believes that the academic and religious teaching of singularity is boring and e…

#24I pay for Kagi search. This doesn't interest me in the least. They have been breaking down the costs of running their business and justifying their prices, which I'm cool with. If it turns out I'm paying to subsidize this kind of thing, it's not going to work for me anymore. (I don't mean to say it's bad or anything, just I don't care about it. It's an interesting downside of a paid business model. Google can do what…

Lots of words I was unfamiliar with because they were domain specific terms and they were not defined

#27In Walden, Thoreau encourages readers to explore their own inner depths and to strive for truth and simplicity. He argues that material wealth is not as important as the wealth of the mind, and that true happiness comes from within. He also encourages readers to be independent and to take risks, and to not be afraid to explore the unknown. He compares the courage of a soldier to that of a footpad, and suggests that it is nobler to explore one's own inner world than to chase after material possessions. He also suggests that it is better to be content with what one has than to strive for superfluous wealth. He concludes by encouraging readers to strive for truth and to not be afraid to explore the unknown.
I think shows the limits of these kinds of statistical word approaches. They aren't necessary "wrong" but they fail to give any sense of the spirit of optimism in the original. I would have been far more impressed if it just quoted the ending:
The life in us is like the water in the river. It may rise this year higher than man has ever known it, and flood the parched uplands; even this may be the eventful year, which will drown out all our muskrats. It was not always dry land where we dwell. I see far inland the banks which the stream anciently washed, before science began to record its freshets. Every one has heard the story which has gone the rounds of New England, of a strong and beautiful bug which came out of the dry leaf of an old table of apple-tree wood, which had stood in a farmer's kitchen for sixty years, first in Connecticut, and afterward in Massachusetts -- from an egg deposited in the living tree many years earlier still, as appeared by counting the annual layers beyond it; which was heard gnawing out for several weeks, hatched perchance by the heat of an urn. Who does not feel his faith in a resurrection and immortality strengthened by hearing of this? Who knows what beautiful and winged life, whose egg has been buried for ages under many concentric layers of woodenness in the dead dry life of society, deposited at first in the alburnum of the green and living tree, which has been gradually converted into the semblance of its well-seasoned tomb -- heard perchance gnawing out now for years by the astonished family of man, as they sat round the festive board -- may unexpectedly come forth from amidst society's most trivial and handselled furniture, to enjoy its perfect summer life at last!
I do not say that John or Jonathan will realize all this; but such is the character of that morrow which mere lapse of time can never make to dawn. The light which puts out our eyes is darkness to us. Only that day dawns to which we are awake. There is more day to dawn. The sun is but a morning star.

#30Time management is an important skill to have in order to lead a happier and more productive life. Julie A. Zelenski, a professor at UVA, gave a talk on time management, drawing from two books and her own experiences. She recommends having a filing system, using speaker phones, and standing during phone calls to save time. She also suggests doing the ugliest task first, having a timer on the phone, and leaving thank-you notes on the desk. Zelenski also recommends scheduling meetings, phone calls, and mundane tasks, and treating people with respect and dignity. An interesting point she made was to use a power drill to carve pumpkins instead of a knife!
Julie Zelenski, ha. AI be dreamin'.
I liked the examples and you're always going to have some weird loss of content when you summarize but the AI taking the joke by Randy and then imagining a surname is still amusing.
