I think they embargoed the news, and then they failed to put up their own blog post synchronized to the scheduled news releases, probably because of the outages they're having today. Reuters announced at 2.03pm and at 2.40pm still no blog post. All the news articles say that OpenAI announced it in a blog post, of course. All the love to the folks at OpenAI scrambling to get this out right now! Edit: HN user codergaut…

FT is claiming... that Open AI is claiming...its AGI...

"ChatGPT maker claims its ‘Astra’ could be considered ‘artificial general intelligence’" - https://www.ft.com/content/55ab40c0-59e2-4c0b-97c9-4f4f5a71a...

At this point, why don't we just do a prequel to the release? 1) Astra will win all benchmarks like all models do. 2) The pelican will have a basket with a fish. 3) Cyber is too dangerous to release. 4) It can finally construct the set of all sets.

It also has to do something naughty, preferably in a menacing swarm.

That won’t happen until the week before DEF CON

(Posting partly so I can revisit my predictions when they open access more widely) A big problem I have with OpenAI's models (and of course Claude) is that they tend to write the most over-engineered pieces of code, beyond the imagination of any architecture's astronaut. Just this week I asked 5.6-sol-ultra to update a 1000 LOC python script I had, to "incorporate the key lessons learned when using it for another pro…

Yes, it turns out that using these machines is a littler harder than "make me the thing I want, make no mistakes, do it the way I want you to do it". This isn't "prompt better" advice, it's just to say that you can't simply set it and forget it. There is still engineering work to be done. If you're not watching the thinking traces and catching when it's about to go off the rails, it'll gladly do so. But you can stop it and redirect it.

It's like a Tesla fsd; it kind of works but you have to be vigilant since it's been known to turn into oncoming traffic, so you have to be ready and able to take over at any time.

Or maybe think of it like a roomba. You can put it on your floor and eventually it will clean the whole thing. It will do it inefficiently, vacuuming over the same spot 30 times; and the actual work will involve wandering around and bumping into everything. If the stairs are not blocked off it will plunge right off. But those shortcomings don't mean it can't be used to reliably clean the floors.

But why stop at rewriting in another language. Get another sub agent to invent a new language, create a database, query language and maybe another few DSLs. Then you've got an ecosystem! You can now re-position your initial solution and sell the client access to some agents that will implement & configure the ecosystem to suit their initial needs! And don't forget the agents that you'll need to train the customer to…

I know you're trying to be funny - but I'm offering a real fix for his problem. If you don't want a million agents arguing about things, you simply don't ask for that. One agent is sufficient to solve most issues.

I wonder if I would need a non-openai agent to enforce it.. I have tried so far with skills and agents.md and code stills end up over engineered to the moon.

Will ask OpenAI to write me that agent! Hope the agent is not over engineered or else unsure how to solve the bootstrap puzzle :D

"Once it is available in the API, Astra will cost $10 per million input tokens and $50 per million output tokens. That is 2.5 times Sol’s current promotional price, although it matches Anthropic’s pricing for Fable 5.1." Open AI finally find an edge to stop selling cheap and earn from the high demand customer like Anthropic

So if you use the non-promotional price for sol it's only 25% higher?

Sol's normal pricing is $5/$30.

Honestly I find these cavalier statements to be in incredibly poor taste. Unless you are completely blind it's obvious that AI is the most significant piece of technology invented since the Atomic Bomb and could very well be the most important thing ever built by Humans full stop. This kind of dismissive attitude is childish and will likely lead to incredibly bad outcomes for humanity.

Please tell me that’s satire, it’s literally impossible to differentiate from actual AI boosters

1000 loc of script, why even leave it there for the night? were there rocket trajectory calculations??? I don't think so. should be ready in 5 mins tops. why people make their own lives harder?

You should have some basic context file about software practices you prefer, otherwise it gets bloated.
