I asked it for a self-portrait as a joke and the result is actually pretty impressive.

Prompt: "Draw a SVG self-portrait"

For comparison, this is Sonnet 3.5's attempt: https://claude.site/artifacts/b3a93ba6-9e16-4293-8ad7-398a5e...

Let's me enter my credit card and I'm good to go. I will stay with them. You'd rather hand over your credit card than your phone number? I think most people would see it the other way around.

You know, that was my first reaction, too. But really, my phone number is much more integral to my identity. I can cancel or change a credit card number pretty trivially and then it's useless to you.

It's fascinating how close these companies are to each other. Some company comes up with something clever/ground-breaking and everyone else has implemented it a few weeks later. Hard not to think of Kurzweil's Law of Accelerating Returns.

It does seem like it will be very, very hard for the companies training their own models to recoup their investment when the capabilities of open-weight models catch up so quickly - general purpose LLMs just seem destined to be a cheap commodity.

Anthropic doubling down on code makes sense, that has been their strong suit compared to all other models Curious how their Devin competitor will pan out given Devin's challenges

It's their strong suit no doubt, but sometimes I wish the chat would not be so eager to code.

It often throws code at me when I just want a conceptual or high level answer. So often that I routinely tell it not to.

YES. I've tried them all but Sonnet is still the model I'm most productive with, even better than the o1/o3 models. Wish I could find the link to enroll in their Claude Code beta...

It’s extremely unlikely that everyone is copying in a few weeks for models that themselves take many weeks if not longer to train. Great minds think alike, and everyone is influencing everyone. The history of innovation is filled with examples of similar discoveries around the same time but totally disconnected in the world. Now with the rate of publishing and the openness of the internet, you’re only bound to get even more of that.
