impulser_··on I resigned from Anthropic today
Ok, what do you think AI does that kills 8.5 billion people in 3 years?
impulser_··on I resigned from Anthropic today
So you think in 3 years AI is going to kill 8.5 billion people because they were used to hack into HuggingFace?
impulser_··on Nvidia agrees to acquire Hugging Face for $13B
I think they will be, Nvidia has released open source model that also included the data it was trained on. I think they are the only ones that have done that.

The government should give incentives to do things that benefit the future of the country. All auto manufactures had the same incentives but instead of building actual good vehicles they instead shipped more production to Mexico and continue to build the absolute most dog shit vehicles in the world.

Not a single US auto manufacturer, outside of Tesla, has a good EV, nor FSD. Waymo is buying thousands of Chinese cars because of how shit US car manufacturer are.

They are the worst of the worst. They shouldn't even be in business they are that bad at building cars which they literally invented.

impulser_··on OpenRouter is joining Stripe
It could be open in the literally sense of you aren't locked in, you have free access to any model you want.

Just because a name has open in it doesn't mean it has to be open source.

impulser_··on fx :Tiny, open, native coding agent.
I'm sorry, but this is pure slop. This has 26 tools and a tool for every single file operation and a tool for read tool output? What the fuck... And they call this minimalist.... Lmfao

The person who built this obviously has little understanding of harnesses.

You should have significantly less tools today with how good LLMs have become.

The start up time and binary size are quite literally the most useless stats to base a harness off of lol

Man what with Cloudflare, Vercel and all these tech companies just releasing pure slop.

Just use Pi. It's actually minimal and well thought out by people who actually understand agents.

impulser_··on GPT-5.6 Sol Pricing Cut by 50%
It's the complete opposite for me. The model might be the worst model I have ever used when compared to other models in the class. You just can't get it not to just write the most enterprise over complex over engineered solutions for every little thing you ask it to do.

It the first model to actually make me pissed off to use AI. I absolutely hate the model so much.

I don't even want to see the codebases this model is fucking up.

It might just be good at finding bugs that about it. That all I would ever use it for just because it works harder than Claude models.

After being stuck with using GPT-5.6 models for the past few weeks, I have renewed faith in Google and everyone but OpenAI. The GPT-5.6 models are quite obviously benchmarkmaxxed to make they seem like they are intelligent but they are quite dumb outside anything that not a benchmarked task.

I also think Google is still the best at fitting the most overall intelligences into their models, but for some reason it seems like the model architecture is just bad.

impulser_··on Pixel Watch 5
Missing 15min of data isn't going to change anything.
impulser_··on Pixel Watch 5
I usually wake up place my watch on the charger grab the clothes I'm wearing go brush my teeth take a shower get dress and get ready for the day then grab the watch off the charger and it fully charged everytime.

I don't get the people that need to wear it 24/7 for days at a time.

impulser_··on Pixel Watch 5
If it charges fast enough this shouldn't matter. You just charge it while you take a shower and as long as it charges enough for the day it fine.
impulser_··on Grok Bot
I was talking about why would I use a Grok specific version of this instead of one that I can switch models.

What if Grok models become horrible or they increase the pricing of the subscriptions now you have to migrate off. Instead you could just use the open source version that allows you to choose your providers and switch cost is just the time to switch those providers.

impulser_··on I'm Done Using AI
It seems like the problem wasn't the AI, but the fact the guy replaced his brain with an AI. Don't do that and you will be just fine.
impulser_··on Grok Bot
The problem these model providers have now is there software is basically useless.

Tell me one reason why I would use this at my company? I basically have to bet on Grok being the best models for this.

Or I can use an open source version and use whatever model I want.

You see this with coding agents, everyone used Claude Code and then realized holy shit this is expensive and now use open source agents and they can use open source models and cut costs.

impulser_··on Prime Agent: A self-improving RLM agent
Don't have it write the whole thing in one session.
impulser_··on Changes at Google DeepMind: Demis Hassabis from CEO to Chair, Jeff Dean departs
Yeah, I should have said growing not going. That's what I meant.
impulser_··on Changes at Google DeepMind: Demis Hassabis from CEO to Chair, Jeff Dean departs
People have been saying that for over a decade now, and their business is still going.
impulser_··on Pi's Minimalism Is Its Advantage
You don't need any extensions to use Pi. You can get far without any.
impulser_··on Pi's Minimalism Is Its Advantage
Yeah, but the future will essentially be building extensions for agents. Agents will become the new web browser and extensions will be the new apps. We are already seeing the early stages of this.
impulser_··on Trump administration bans new Chinese humanoid robots
Dam, we are never going to have anything cool in the US. Our robot companies are too busy raising money to make more cool looking power points to then raise more money to burn not making an actually sellable product before they go under :(
impulser_··on Discovering Cryptographic Weaknesses with Claude
Yeah, in fact you can actually make the model perform worst. You should allow the model to "think for itself" instead of pushing your reasoning into the prompt. You should give it simple prompt and steer it along the way.

Skills, CLAUDE.md/AGENTS.md should only ever be used if the model struggle at something or doesn't know how to use something. Vast majority of project should never need a skill or CLAUDE.md. If you writing React apps you don't need these.

Give a LLM a bash tool and a prompt and it will outperform your complex setup with skills and tools.

impulser_··on Our position on open-weights models
Well good thing we have elections.
impulser_··on Our position on open-weights models
Well that what the people voted for. In a few months you can replace these people that allow this. Good luck replacing anyone in the goverment of China.
impulser_··on Our position on open-weights models
Yeah, but unlike China we have laws and ways to fight against it. China can and will do whatever the fuck they want they don't have to listen to the people of China.
impulser_··on Turn And Face The Strange
This isn't even a Sprite specific thing. Their whole platform is known for this for years and they have yet to even care to fix it.

So it might be good the CEO is quitting because he has done a horrible job.

impulser_··on If coding has been solved, why does software keep getting worse?
I think people just think it getting worst because you use software for literally everything in your life now compare to before and this means you will most likely run into bugs more often.

On top of that software has to be build with more users in mind so you are often going to get bloated software. That why enterprise software is often horrible because they have to support multiple industries that all need different types of workflows and UI.

I have been using software for decades and there has always been horrible software. Like I'm mind blown that people think human always wrote good code, and that AI is somehow worst than human code. AI writes better code then the vast majority of programmers that's a fact. Yes, including you. Yes there are certain areas of programming that it sucks at but 99% of programmer aren't writing that code.

impulser_··on Opus 5 is currently #1 on Artificial Analysis Intelligence Leaderboard
It shouldn't be surprising OpenAI does have the most compute out of all the major labs. The only reason why Anthropic models are expensive is they are the most in demand models in the world and Anthropic is fighting for compute. The only way to you limit demand for your model is increasing API pricing this is also why Anthropic probably has great margin and probably is profitable compared to OpenAI.
impulser_··on Claude Opus 5
Go read the safeguards section in the report and you will realize why that is.

These models are heavily as safeguarded and that was the initial reason why they said they couldn't and haven't released Mythos because that model is the one without the safeguards.

OpenAI is did the same thing when they announced a model without safeguards broken into HuggingFace servers.

impulser_··on DARPA, U.S. Air Force fly AI-controlled F-16
These systems still require a human to command the jet, they jsut don't have to be inside them.

"This critical testing will pave the way for human pilots to seamlessly command and orchestrate teams of autonomous, uncrewed aircraft."

The reason they are doing this is because the Military is already building a bunch of autonomous drones and fighter jets that already run on this system so they are retrofitting existing equipment with the same system so they can all fly together.

"Ultimately, the capabilities advanced under AIR will enable a wide variety of future joint force operations, including Collaborative Combat Aircraft programs."

Which are these:

And everyone is developing these.

They are already building them.
