We are routinely doing that btw. Look up medical triage.
I refuse to take a repo with an AI-generated readme seriously. If you haven't bothered to write a readme, what else have you not bothered to do?
(100% AI according to Pangram btw)
Good. Finland has dozens of billions of trees. Having AI data centers on European soil is more important.
But can it follow a simple customer support script?
I don't understand how these benchmarks get things so wrong. Nova-3 is by far the best model on the market in WER. Azure's STT is atrocious. And yet every benchmark rates Azure's STT higher than Nova-3's.
I'd give a lot to see the WA group chat between the Instinct founder and their VCs.
Water consumption of AI is a non-issue. Why even spend research and policymaking resources on this?
As someone who's been doing AI call centres for a while, I'm not surprised. It's really, really hard to build voice AI that works. There are no open source solutions that work out of the box.
But the biggest problem is ASR. WER is still atrocious even with SOTA models. When you add drug names and regional accents, it's a recipe for disaster.

Why would it be inflationary?

This is obviously untrue, both with GPT-5.4, and Claude Fable as examples in the last 6 months.

You guys absolutely rock. You've built an industry standard with Promptfoo. Keeping it open source was the right choice.
The "Less Growth for Europe" party strikes again.

The reason for divergence is actually much simpler. NASDAQ 100 includes data center builders, Morgan Stanley software index doesn't. Stock market is going down across the board if you exclude data center construction.
Marc Maron has coined the perfect description for sanctimonious posts like these: "annoying Americans into fascism".

Is their CEO comp not in line with the market?
If the accusers had evidence, they would have surely provided it to the defendants in the defamation case.
> OPERATORS: No precedence, executed left to right, parenthesize as desired. 2+3*10 yields 50.
How do you even come up with this?
One of my favorite things about Curtis Yarvin is that one of his main ideas is laughably easy to prove wrong. He says that whenever we go into the past, the previous generation seems to be more "right-wing" than the current one. Which is almost comically wrong. For example, you get Victorian Era being much more conservative than its predecessor, Georgian Era. Same goes for Christian Roman Empire vs Pagan Roman Empire, Nazi Germany vs Weimar Germany, etc etc. There are literally dozens of examples. It seems that Yarvin genuinely doesn't know any of these high school-level facts.

> chatgpt-4o-latest, but it's bad because they continuously update it
Version explicitly marked as "latest" being continuously updated it? Crazy.
For conversational AI, the most significant part is GPT-4.1 mini being 2x faster than GPT-4o at basically the same reasoning capabilities.
