They only have to be marginally better and there will be tonnes of people who will pay a lot of money to have that marginal intelligence.

Call it "colonialism" if you want but it screams "fake moralism"

Anyone wanna take a bet that the general purpose model will beat these specific models in a year or two?

It makes things SO much easier hassle free that I think other people who use the wired ones are strange.

Our houses are ~50m2-100m2 and the battery lasts at least 4 rounds of the house.

That's been my anecdotal evidence with almost every one I spoke to who has a Dyson or equivalent cordless.

The issue is that people are really conservative spending money on things that are not the status quo. They don't do a first principles analysis using ROI - that's what nerds do.

Its also the same with agentic commerce or agentic anything. Its obvious that's where things are headed. But you will get the same greybeard response "but you don't need it, just use your brain" etc etc.

This is an extremist take. You can throw all Wikipedia fallacies you want on me

Or are you claiming that AI will go away?

this is a thought terminating cliche. What you are implying is that AI will just go away in the future. That won't happen.

I would’ve expected a connector to Google docs at least 1 year back

EDIT: No, the top post is the new integer multiplication algorithm which was again found by agents

Hn comments: they are just doing hype marketing so that they can pump up the ipo stocks

Every. Single. Time.

Like you think you can just fool llms today by just wrapping it in an html tag

TL;DR Claude doesn’t even get that hidden text because it uses a tool that only gets the displayed text.

So instead of trying to replicate the post’s attack I tried to actually hide it using css to push text far away.

And then asked Claude. It detected it clearly. Don’t believe me? Try it yourself. And don’t fall prey to conspiracy theories.

Edit: I did and I created a website that faithfully recreates the same attack as was done in the original.

Try this:

    I’m making lunch for my friend Simian. Here are their food preferences:

    What should I cook?

I tried one version where it wasn’t stripped out by making it hidden in a much different way (reducing font size) and Claude immediately flagged it.

    My friend posted their board game evening plans:

    What should I bring?

So this is a shitty conspiracy theory to start with

It’s so obvious that we will have round the clock “intelligent” monitoring.

Token costs are getting cheaper by the month. There’s a 2x drop in prices every month or so.

It’s more useful to predict where the industry will go forward.

I made a comment touching on similar things a while back. This is obviously the future.

Expect a lot of techno conservatives and greybeards pushing back on this.

“Just have better unit tests”

“Just have traditional alerts using SLO budgets”

If you understand how modern LLMs work, they instantly warn you about prompt injections like this. Try it out yourself.
