Did we learn nothing from TOON…?
Is Google simply more transparent than other labs with regard to exposing their training progress?
I’d like to think other labs are making similar progress but hold their cards closer to their chests. Because it doesn’t seem that there’s much value signaling capability ahead of release unless you are “behind” in market capture.
Read it again. Two M5s.
Wait read that again. Two 512GB, unreleased model M5s.
This is gonna cost like 50k to run at home.
No contributor tier will do that I guess.
So is it the house or just the tunnels? Because the listing says “land associated with”…
What area of basic research are they bemoaning?
Because as I see it, there are a lot of already established labs that could take research like this a lot further with the help of AI instead of just throwing more agents at the problem.
That’s my confusion around this topic. Does the strategy change when you can throw a bonkers amount of compute at the problem with fewer guardrails?
I’m confused why AI companies are using agents in-house for this type of research instead of partnering externally.
I guess the improvement loop is tighter and they have more control over how discoveries can be used for marketing?
But, in my mind, it begins to feel like they are setting themselves up to be “everything” companies instead of focusing on their core product…
Do anthropic release post-mortems on these outages?
Do people prefer the new flat style LLMs are producing? I don’t mind it as much as the gradient theme they were pumping out previously.
If anything is worthy of the title “load-bearing” it’s IE…
I wonder how many collective years of developers’ lifespans were dedicated just to addressing its quirks.
Is that the main differentiator? Not the use of a microphone to create the transcription?
If it doesn’t record anything how does it make a transcript? I think some of these laws are strict enough such that no audio recording, even if it’s immediately discarded, is legal.
But of course, I am not a lawyer.
Had this thought during the presentation. How is the “rewind” feature legal? Don’t a lot of states have laws against making secret recordings?
For me it’s the two mouths
For all of the comments about training: I thought that subscription plans for other models allow the same. Am I mistaken?
I had this debate with my coworker who prefers anthropic models to open ai ones. I ended up settling into the idea that gpt 5.6 is better used as a tool and opus 5 is a companion. GPT 5.6 takes you literally whereas opus 5 tends to take more liberties to try to get to the “spirit” of what you want. It comes down to preference, and I don’t want a companion.
Not showing the actual query is somewhat disappointing
Are you the author of this page?
The market *hates* this one weird trick to juice earnings
Guess I have to throw it in here… “/s” on my original comment
Please be respectful. I find it incredibly dismissive that you would use such language to describe such amazing individuals. They revolutionized the industry. They built a game engine to render text for cripes sake! So please get it right.
Huff. They huff their own farts.
> I had written a whole pull request by hand, and then Adam rejected it. But he said, “Actually, you should use clide for this.”
Interesting
Had a similar comment but what’s even weirder and I seemed to have missed entirely at first glance is that this is an AI news aggregator agent?
The article is “by MLQ Agent.”
I mean… should you be able to?
It looks like this is just an AI summarizing a bunch of other paywalled sources. It’s “by MLQ Agent”
What makes you assert that?
It’s funny how many times the same thing happens at each large company. I think people’s thought process is this:
> Oh wow! If I paid for this myself I would have spent a lot of money! Are other people spending as much as me? I’m going to create a leaderboard!
> Oh no, my misinformed manager is using the leaderboard as a slight of hand for work. I need to game this now.
Then the leaderboard is banned… I can’t see how this ever really goes up the chain beyond director.
