If the "don't train on my data" button actually did what they want you to think it does they wouldn't have zero-data retention as an expensive option in the enterprise plan. Fake til' you make it and all that.

Wow, FFT faster than O(nlog(n))? I wonder if that will open the floodgates for further improvement or not. I don't understand anything about most of the fields these results touch, but I can say that this in particular is very surprising.

"Tortured phrases" is the name of the phenomena, papers have been written about it since 2021.

Anthropic has been doing this sort of stuff for a while already. I mean, who remembers when Claude would just consume all your remaining usage if it read anything indicating that Openclaw had been used on your codebase? Because I remember. Two months ago btw https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47963204
Then there was the whole debacle of Fable silently downgrading to other models if it detected wrong think, or worse, outright sabotaging your codebase if you were working on language models lol

Aside from politics/law, it's probably much easier for everyone else to distill from the Chinese model which already distilled Claude/GPT/Gemini. Maybe not as good a result, but you don't need to jump through dozens of hoops.

The thing the annoys me the most (to use polite language) is that product design went off the window with the AI craze. You could probably ship actual products that actual people would want to use, but instead everyone wants to turn everything into a chatbot, as if chatbots are the pinnacle of user interface, the crabs of software, the purpose, goal, and telos of technology. It drives me nuts.

Back when I was on undergrad I sometimes managed to get to the castle, but never very consistently. Opening NAO was one of my go to ways of dealing with spare time but I haven't played the game much since.
This is wild tho, never imagined we would get to version 5
