When I ask chatgpt to create a mermaid diagram for me it regularly will add new lines to certain labels that will break the parse. If you then feed the parse error back to it the second version is always correct And it seems to exactly know the problem. There are some other examples where it will almost always get it wrong the first time but right if nudged to correct itself. I wonder what the underlying cause is

What instance of ChatGPT are you doing that with? (Reasoning?)

They could also just implement sign in with apple on their website, they have the ability to sign in with google so not supporting Apple is still a weird choice they are making. Apple should not have had to require developers to have options other than Google for authentication, but clearly some companies have to be dragged kicking and screaming. So clearly they support it, and there is no reason it should not work o…

A vendor doesn't have to bend for another. Always best to sign in with your own email address.

> Always best to sign in with your own email address.

Using a randomly generated email per service is a huge improvement over always using the same email.

I find it absolutely mindblowing to witness the rate at which Anthropic can ship new features. Only a year ago I couldn't wait to see some sort of Github integration and then it appeared only a week later. Seriously impressive stuff.

They also pay... insane salaries, like double industry average. That coupled with an IPO on the horizon means they probably have their pick of engineers.

You have 23 year olds earning $2mn/year, at least it isn't in HFT though!

> If you signed up with your Apple on the iOS Claude app, to access your account on the computer, you have to open the passwords app and copy your random email address and paste it into the Claude website login. Isn't this basically Apple's fault? When you signed up, Apple provided a fake email address in leu of your real one. This is great for privacy but means the service has the wrong email. I'm sure they didn't w…

> I'm sure they didn't want to provide an Apple sign in option at all But they wanted to provide a Google Sign In? wth? > This is great for privacy but means the service has the wrong email. So harm the users to benefit the service? wtf? I don't want to give my real email or anything to random services, specially not one like Claude where they don't even let you remove your payment info.

The original complaint was:

>> If you signed up with your Apple on the iOS Claude app, to access your account on the computer, you have to open the passwords app and copy your random email address and paste it into the Claude website login.

Either you use your original email or you use a per-service email. Apple helps you do the latter, but this does come with UX tradeoffs.

Using a per-service email, then complaining that the service does not have your real email, strikes me as misguided.

Have you actually used their products? They are janky, full of bugs and barely work half the time.

They write 100% of their code with Claude. Some of their engineers apparently burn over 100k worth of tokens per month.

It’s not surprising they ship fast at all when the product is actually falling apart at the seams and they just vibe code everything.

Aaand all the way at the bottom, there it is. The first glimpse of what will be an ad carousel. (Literally nobody needs an image of a cake when asking for a cake recipe)

What if you've never seen a cake before?

That's the target group for the feature. You're right. You got me.

I feel like this is a feature which improves the perceived confidence of the LLM but doesn't do much for correctness of other outputs, i.e. an exacerbation of the "confidently incorrect" criticism.

Already happened. :)

I think to the extent they are making a speed v quality tradeoff, I think they are making the right call. 10x speed over quality any day for me. Reminds me of:
