I mean, how fast do you need it to be? If you're running lambdas with cold starts all day long yes, java is a problem. Otherwise, occasional restarts of java services are quick assuming they're probably stateless. A few seconds? Whats the problem that needs to be solved here?
Where are the competitor to the big frontier labs? The Chinese providers are demonstrating everything can be done cheaper and practically identical. I'm surprised upstarts aren't showing up.
And that is precisely all it is, a demo. Reminder that BYDs are held at bay in an anti free market policy specifically because American car companies cannot compete with its low cost and quality. We're wasting time and money on this type of tech.
This engineering in this demo was only designed o get lucrative government contracts.
I can't take it seriously at all. Whats the community sell? Make AI slop games? Were game developers wondering "gee, how can I make even LESS money". Not all possible marketplaces or services have to exist.
But people aren't communicating freely. They are being throttled, shadow banned, refused etc. In some cases these are political candidates. Since this is one of the main channels of consumption these obvious and well documented manipulations are having a massive impact on political outcomes.
Fintech, easy to trigger some sort of failure mode or obvious gap once specs get detailed enough and the prompt intents become specific enough. Doesn't require exhausting available context. Opus 5 did feel like a regression, will hold out judgement on 5.5 which seems much more promising.
Somehow still theoretically valued at 3 trillion. I just don't see a path forward for Ameican frontier providers when competitors can give absolutely massive savings elsewhere. It's like losing manufacturing all over again.
People dont even trust meta with their personal data anymore but somehow they'll use it to run every aspect of their lives? This feels like another big failure in the making. Give me an AI that doesn't use my data at all and maybe I'll use it. I already have Google AI Mode for that. Does that steal my data too, maybe, but at least it doesn't have Metas history of abusing repeatedly. They burned that bridge so many times even non techies know not to trust Meta.
640k ought be enough for this AI. I'm not sure takes like these are helpful. It's widely acknowledged that this is a technological shift, like electricity, like industrialization, etc. It could be (good or bad) but most likely (good AND bad). Does anyone really believe, sincerely, that AI will be the great equalizer? It's a hilarious proposition. They are working their hardest to make sure that its not imo.
Is there something like that but simply a GUI web wrapper around subscriptions and memory layer? I want a web ui. I don't think in terms of these personality types though, my tasks are dynamic. For example, claude can run N agents in one window right now and be accurate about it, so I scope agent by project level.
Everytime I see a bad guy get cuffed in a movie in the front, I say "nope! the cop can get choked out now!". Thanks Police Quest, you taught us all a little safety that day.
Years later, I appreciated the ability the get stuck in Sierra games. It makes each decision or moment just that much more important. Leave no stone unturned or thought unthunk!
