Stop funding these broken and dying companies with grants, they need to die off

The coolest YouTube videos I’ve seen in a while, even better cause I saw the eclipse last year

Any type of "wrong think" on my account gets flagged these days, makes commenting on debates pointless. I said this about SpaceX vs Nasa and my comment got flagged:

"SpaceX has shown us that private enterprise is the way. Giant decades long projects are slow, stifled by bureaucracy, and less effective."

This was in a political post about Nasa gets their budget cut, a political position I support with the above rational.

What’s the end game here for Facebook? Surely people will just stop going to these platforms or is the thinking Ai + the algorithm will be even more effective… shutter at the thought

I'd argue the opposite and that Gabe needs to retire (and hopefully have Robin Walker take over).

Valve's release cycle has slowed down to almost nothing, and are just feeding off their cash cows. Gabe is 62 and seems more interested in his Neuralink competitor.

DOGE has shown how screwed up the balance between the 3 branches has gotten.

The executive should have the power to fire/remove executive associated departments/employees, obviously.

The executive should not be able to authorize drone strikes/war without congressional hearings (which has been occurring for decades at this point)

etc.

I read the entire article and it doesn't mention what this "key" US tech agency even does.

Can't even get Sunday nights off trying to keep up fml.

First thing I noticed on API and Chat for it is THIS THING IS FAST. That alone makes it a huge upgrade to o1-pro (not really comparable I know, just saying). Can't imagine how much I'll get done with this type of speed.

Would be fascinating trying to get an LLM trained with 1900 data to discover Einstein physics

Cool to see the work Adept Ai mention a few years back come to life.

Given how much work is going into "safety", I wonder if this is a field in which less safe open source could overtake the premium models.

Where's the smoking gun for these privacy issues? Why hasn't the FBI or anyone else investigated and discovered these issues, if they exist?

The sitting president of the United States of America was banned by almost every major AMERICAN company, and even some Canadian companies (Shopify), yet we're going after Tiktok.

No Chinese ever banned the sitting president of the United States.

“They’re solving a problem that didn’t exist.”

The crux of the problem right there. Always approach startups as "what problem can I solve?".

You should get a Ford or Volkswagen, they have a much better track record.

I think I'd get addicted to a fake crypto trading game

We were sold on H1-B's being extraordinary people working extraordinary jobs that Americans cannot fulfill, not a wage suppression indentured servitude program.

Thank you, my dreams have finally come true.

Given the average IG comment, a 300m parameter model should suffice.

1) Raise the minimum salary to 200k+. Anything else is indentured servitude/downwards wage pressure.

2) Remove the family extension. 80k/year shouldn't end up being 500k/year.

This gave me a funny idea for a new social media app...

One that's centered around "you" and filled with thousands/millions of LLM bots praising you, treating you like a celebrity, etc. Each of your posts will get tens of thousands of "likes", hundreds of comments, etc. Dm's straight to your feed, people wanting you, etc etc.

If the newsfeed is already mostly "the algorithm", might as well take it to the extreme. I bet tons of people would get addicted to the dopamine hit of celebrity status (whether it's bots or not).

Creating somewhat complex python scripts at work to automate some processes which incorporate like 3-4 APIs, and next I'll be replacing our excise tax processing (which costs us like $500/month) since we already have all the data.

Personal use I'll be using it to upgrade all my website code. I literally took a screenshot of Apple.com and combined it with existing code from my website and told o1 pro to combine the two... the results were really good, especially for one shot... But again, I have unlimited fast usage so I can just keep tweaking and tweaking.

I also have this history idea I've been wanting to do for a while, might see if the models are advanced enough yet.

All this with an understanding on how programming works, but not being able to code.

Not simply usage, the new o1 is also FAST. It's just incredibly liberating being able to have unlimited usage of such a smart fast model.

After a few hours of $200 Pro usage, it's completely worth it. Having no limit on o1 usage is a game changer, where I felt so restricted before, the amount of intelligence at the palm of my hand UNLIMITED feels a bit scary.

So what are the limits of the o1 pro mode? I'm waiting to purchase this at work!

This is why Trump wants to repeal the chip act. A company like Intel should not survive in the free market, and now will be propped up by the government while remaining inefficient.

Been using LLMs since got3 beta in June 2021 and it’s interesting to see how my use cases have continuously been upgraded as models advanced.

Started off with having it create funny random stories, to slowly creating more and more advanced programs.

It’s shocking how good 3.5 Sonnet is at coding, considering the size of the model.

FYI, the map looks horrendous for democrats after the 2030 census. Estimates give Texas +4, Florida +3, and various other southern states +1 for a total of +12 on solid red states.

I wonder if this is their own web scraper, or if they're using Bing API?

As a very experienced SEO, this is pretty exciting nonetheless, a new front in the online war opening up.

If they're using their own scraper/search algorithms, it'll be interesting to see how they weigh the winners and losers compared to how Google does it.

If we can alter the chemical composition of peoples brains/guts to make them less hungry, how long until something similar exists to overcome anxiety? Public speaking fears? etc.
