Artificial Analysis is a 40 person company working out of Silicon Valley; who is funding them? How do they make money?

We need an AI benchmark made in neutral Switzerland.

"The FrontierCode verifier grades each attempt with the task's tests and rubric. We use GPT-6 Luna (medium) as the LLM judge"

Why are they using a closed source LLM as a judge? Closed source providers can see your traffic and adjust as they see fit.

Exactly. And that will be the lasting thing here wrt maths. These things have value, just not commercial value, and that is why long term, it won’t be the interest of private companies.

What is the market value of a lean verification of fermats last theorem? How much is someone willing to pay for that?

Companies hiring armies of mathematicians and spending millions to work on problems like these is an anomaly.

It will not last.

Once IBM deep blue beat Kasparov in chess, IBM stopped their chess playing research.

The marketing goal, if you will, had been met and IBM would continue their actual money making business of selling mainframes and doing consulting.

The same thing will happen with AI companies’ endeavors into abstract maths.

Maths however will be changed - students can no longer be taught via the same homework - and mathematicians will have to do more computer work and probably work in larger groups of people.

Why are these running Windows? If you are targeting AI engineers surely you would be better of offering some kind of unix.

“ Meta most certainly is compromised by foreign actors.”

How is meta compromised by foreign actors? And who are the foreign actors?

The Chinese did it. We broke Boeings monopoly with Airbus.

I realize these are heavy handed approaches - but shows what can get done.

Perhaps smaller scale things can work as well: Ie supporting alternatives when they occur - ie tiktok back when it was kinda Chinese - use the China threat to enforce objective standards - rather than just following the us stance.

Use existing monopoly legislation.

All creating an open market place for social media that allows for newcomers and local alternatives rather than the single monopoly that is the situation now.

They are beholden to the current US admin - as always - only good thing is that the current admin is so blatant that maybe one day even the Germans will realize that you need to have your own social media just you have your own national tv, newspapers etc.

Of course there is - hidden behind a NDA made by a company powerful enough to enforce it.

I guess one point is you can run Qwen on a local machine.

It is not public knowledge how Fable 5 works - it is all hidden away behind a web service - for what it is worth it might a hybrid architecture with harness, loops, tools etc. combined with a traditional llm like what is done here.

Thanks for that - the other points are really good too.

Moonshot is 300 employees and about to do a 50B ipo. Going to toe to toe with US counterparts with not even a tenth of the resources.

"But ChatGPT maker OpenAI said Thursday that Hoskins’s purported work was generated using its chatbot by users based in Iran as part of an “influence campaign.”"

Sock puppet accounts and fake opinion pieces are nothing new.

The new thing is a super centralized "tool" that besides doing your writing for you, logs everything, judges it, and reports to authorities and news outlets as it sees fit.

Sounds cartoon-like and unbelievable.

We all love DeepSeek. They are what is standing between freedom and total submission to the AI oligarchs.

Having the police show up, confiscate a bunch of random computers, talk not so nicely to employees. Strikes me as a very simple way of ensuring that agents are properly contained and sandboxed the next time they train on exploit gym.

Haven’t the FM synthesizer patents expired at this point?

You can buy a full FM synthesizer on Temu for very little.

"AI-generated text is painful to read"

It is pretty obvious rails is dead as it hangs massively on its founder for good and for bad.

And it is quite telling that he prefers to kill it off like this rather than handing the reigns over to someone else.

A technical note - the big difference is that a design with a number of fat clients don’t need server side rendered html - that lowers the load on the server regardless of the programming language.

You can probably write quite light json apis in Ruby and the performance of them will be dominated by network and db usage anyways compared to a similar implementation done in a compiled language.

“Temu Elon” - just sampling the comments …

Are we the baddies?

...

Yes.

Ok - I am cool with that.

You are getting good advice here; if you don't go beyond the default AI aesthetics, your implicit communication will be that this is low-effort AI-slop. Regardless of your true effort.

Huawei uses their own non-standard HBM called HiZQ probably not produced by CXMT.

The BYD is sold in Europe but there is higher VAT and a special EU Chinese car import tax - so these cars are about 20k euro.

There is also the Renault Twingo which is in the same class.

You guys make more sense when you are not drunk.

Take a look at those Wikipedia pages I posted - do you the Danes or the Greenlanders ok’ed any of those things?!

The US under Trump is seen a bit like a good strong friend who has gotten way too much to drink and wants to pick fights with everybody - giving him a symbolic win to avoid embarrassment is the right to do.

Anyways that’s the sentiment - you can look at dr.dk and similar via google translate if you want.

In the sense that it is for practical purposes the same deal as before.

Also Denmark does not want to go to war with the US - something that was considered a real scenario just a few months back when the Danes moved an unusual large military force to the island.
