Apparently it isn't clear to the investors valuing OpenAI at >300B. Possibly they're betting that the ecosystem & integrations around their models will generate a certain amount of lock-in or otherwise make the difference in a close-to-even field

Funnily enough a lot of the open source world has landed on an API that is basically a copy of OpenAI. So if you develop against OpenAI it’s almost a slot in solution to switch to an open source solution.

and on top of that you have solutions like openrouter.ai where you can route inference easily with a combobox

Why did we start talking about news as "legacy media"? I mean, at least it has journalistic standards and some semblance of fact checking compared to social media which has given us great gaffes such as identifying the wrong Boston Marathon bomber and getting the poor guy to kill himself, wrongly identifying the Hispanic white supremacist shooter, and many many more.

Here's why: https://news.gallup.com/poll/651977/americans-trust-media-re...

Mainstream outlets have viewerships that compare disfavorably to those of top youtubers. That has been the case for many years now. The only reason most mainstream outlets exist is the taxpayer money train that's coming to an abrupt stop as I write this.

Elon just said they are launching an AI game studio. Does this mean they will be building games that are mostly built with AI, or will they make AI tooling available for anyone to build games easily? Probably the former, but it would be nice if they would make it fully available to everyone.

Does "historically accurate" even have a meaning?

Doesn’t OpenAI claim their work will lead to artificial general intelligence? That seems like a much steeper gradient to climb. Hype is the fuel that bootstraps fortunes in techtopia.

Lying about FSD for almost a decade now through your teeth isn't "hype" - it's just bullshit.

I am excited for the voice mode promised in "a week" or so. ChatGPT Advanced Voice has been a big disappointment for me. It can't do some of the things they demoed at the announcement. It's a lot dumber than text mode. I find the voice recognition unreliable. I couldn't get it to act as a translator last time I tried. But most of all I find I don't have much to talk to it about. If Grok 3 voice mode can discuss current events from the X timeline then it should be much more interesting to talk to.

Regardless of which it is, we can assume it'll be here after Tesla's full autopilot that he promised as well as the Mars colonies.

If what they say is true, then you have to give them credit for catching up incredibly fast. And slightly pulling ahead. Not only with the models, but also products.

I have a close friend working in core research teams there. Based on our chats, the secret seems to be (1) massive compute power (2) ridiculous pay to attract top talents from established teams (3) extremelly hard work without big corp bureaucracy.
