Seller of cloud inference warns you should not have your own local inference

I think it’ll take time to figure out what’ll happen. Companies aren’t going to give up their renewals until they’re confident the ai generated replacement software works

> there can be no assurance that we will be able to hire sufficient support personnel as and when needed, particularly if our sales exceed our internal forecasts

Why would they need support personnel? Isn't their whole point that Claude can do that

IMO the writing was on the wall as soon as they started making money from data licensing

I’m not sure what people are doing with these subscriptions to feel the need to monitor what’s going on this closely. A $100 OpenAI subscription feels effectively infinite for my usage at home

Companies don't want it to be easy to cross shop their competition, the whole premise of Amazon is that it's so easy and simple you don't even check the competition. AI agents are leveling the playing field and helping customers find the best deals, so of course they're being banned

Every generation says this. Example (Sep 4, 1977) https://time.com/archive/6849143/education-why-those-falling...

Just ignore it and they'll get bored and move on to the next thing

If the models are so powerful why aren't they using them to build better isolation

It’s insane how they’re allowed to just turn this into marketing for how powerful their models are

Watching the downfall of Jetbrains has been very sad

They 100% did this so they could keep the 0-60 in 1 second promise, and I love it

So they want to ban local models since they’re good enough to risk their revenue stream

I suspect this site will end up similar to the google graveyard. The reoccurring theme with the vibe coded apps is the author gets a lot of press then it is abandoned once the bad architecture collapses in on itself

The entire selling point of McDonald's was consistently mediocre affordable food. Throwing in some "AI" pricing doesn't change the fundamentals of their products. I don't think this will be what corrects their downward spiral

A more cynical view is, trust us we've got really good stuff internally you're not allowed to see, but give us more money

This article just reminds me that workslop is so hard to counter because it takes no effort to produce and immense effort to debunk

I think a lot of people forget about the labor costs of migrating. The $30/mo looks cheap compared to all of the time spent trying to teach end users how to use something else

The media response to this omits the fact that these vibe coded "reverse engineered" apps hardly work and we've had open source alternatives to the Microsoft and Adobe products for years. The narrative they're pushing is a frontier model can make a perfect clone of any app, and the reality is it makes a ui that looks somewhat similar but none of the functionality actually works.

I never understood why someone would harass the models or fish for an apology

Did this project just buy a ton of stars?

Spamming events with ai slop puts an unfair burden on the organizers

> As too many vulnerabilities have been unilaterally disclosed by HashiCorp–including last year’s RCE–the OpenBao maintainers declined to continue proactively disclosing and coordinating vulnerabilities with HashiCorp, despite initially doing this.

You'd never guess Red Hat and HashiCorp are owned by the same company

Biotech is trying to take banana bread away from us

Seems more likely they've hit a wall with improvements and need to justify why it's slowing down to investors

Why would they invest resources into chess? There are no impressive marketing announcements to be had when chess engines are already superhuman on a cell phone

> that isn't software development, it looks a lot more like a slightly more flexible WordPress.

I've had this same thought when I see all these vibe coded apps that look exactly the same

> We believe the goal and the structure are right

Aged like milk lol
