People don't realize how much of a guessing game cavities really are (when they aren't causing you pain).

I have the opposite problem where my teeth hold up very well. Eventually my dentist is like "we should probably fill those". My first cavities and I am middle aged. Sure, sounds good. After he started drilling he remarked "wow, they are larger than I expected". Afterward I realized my freshly filled teeth felt much better. It had happened so gradually I didn't notice they didn't feel normal anymore.

I find it interesting that as the models get better, the "it takes no skill crowd" grows larger, but there is no denying, in hindsight, that the "it still takes skill" group was right at each model iteration.

Opus 5.5 is amazing. It still makes mistakes all the time. If you think it doesn't, you are outing yourself.

Because Clef is a larger model, larger context, can process images. Plus its open weights, so you can run it yourself.

Since it benches better than Jev, Jev is probably smaller and easier to host. They could also be losing a lot of money.

This is the answer and we should not push on it for our own protection. You click a link that takes you to a poorly secured website that leaks sensitive data, without intent protections, you could be accused of crimes.

Luna is really good model that would have been super SOTA at the beginning of the year and its basically free at these prices.

This is a step beyond baseless predictions. Tao also had a "weird" "hypothetical" comment about LLMs solving complex proofs with impossible to human verify Lean.

The study is "new", but the data they are using is old. It has references GPT-4 for god sake.

I understand the struggle, but I feel like so many of these projects are going to ban AI contributions right before it starts getting undeniably better than humans.

The fundamental flaw in all these style arguments against core employment is people's personal desire to have a straight forward path for survival that doesn't involve a lot of strategic thought.

Its hard for highly intelligent people to understand that others simply DGAF. They just want their paycheck and they don't want to think about it deeply.

Thought leaders have existed since the dawn of human history. There were always scuffles at the top, but there were plenty of people that just went about their business, filling their roles and doing their jobs for the tribe.

Agents are getting good but professing they are surpassing you in domain and architectural knowledge with no special prompting is basically self reporting at this point. That could be your job wasn't that complicated or your personal knowledge wasn't that strong, either way, same result.

Don't get me wrong, I am sure we will get to all three of these pillars, probably by next year. I am not naive.

Hopefully we never do something silly like making a lead pushing machine that operates at high velocity, then mass produce it, what a terrible precedence that would set.

this is apples to oranges, the flash version version a full version

this thing is like 5x better than flash at fine grain detail

Anecdotal, of course, but the biggest change I ever made in my life was right before bed: take a screaming hot shower with dim lighting. I'd say 95% of the time, I get in bed and just pass out and have no real memory of time passing before falling asleep.

Same reason why two companies have the same idea, one goes viral and one doesn't. Public opinion matters even if its illogical at times.

Their concerns weren't completely off base, I think they just over estimated how much it would really matter in the grand scheme.

I will "suffer" through .004 of electricity if I can run it on my own computer

When you cannot win, you regulate the scoreboard. This is why Europe keeps getting lapped. They mistake control for competence. They cannot build platforms at scale, so they try to govern everyone else’s.

U.S. and China are trying to build super intelligence while Europe is trying to micro manage people's habits.

If your co-workers are getting promotions and raises and you are not, its a you problem. If someone else is getting credit for your work, its a you problem. Given your claims of impeccable work, we are only left to assume its a personality issue.

Its not to say its fair or right, but life is a popularity contest, whether we like it or not. More likeable people get more things, sometimes undeservingly so.

If you read the PR, the bad issues are in a few extensions, not the bot itself. The unencrypted oAuth token isn't really a big deal. It should be fixed but its a "if this box is compromised" type thing. Given the nature of clawdbot, you are probably throwing it on a random computer/vps you don't really care about (I hope) without access to anything critical.

Same with food. Plenty of food, just not where its needed.

I find gpt-oss 20b very benchmaxxed and as soon as a solution isn't clear it will hallucinate.

Not really an apples to apples comparison. You are comparing it to core technologies that millions of things sit on. There will always be money for that.

Its almost never correct to rip on a project from a distance. Only two things can happen, one, you are wrong, and the project succeeds. This is a personal catastrophe for your career at that company. Two, you are correct and the project fails. Its rare this will get you enough credibility to make the risk worth it. There are always others that will show up and dogpile as if they "knew" the entire time themselves. You need to be consistently correct about failure to get truly noticed, but then it asks a lot of questions. Why are you still working there? Why don't you have enough influence to prevent it in the first place? "I told you so" rarely accomplishes anything good.

This is cool, but once a week seems a little slow

yes, AI isn't penetrating those fields with high job losses at all

Cool project, but I never found the cloudflare DX desirable compared to self hosted alternatives. A plain old node server in a docker container was much easier to manage, use and is scalable. Cloudflare's system was just a hoop that you needed to jump through to get to the other nice to haves in their cloud.

You spend a career automating things then decide "no, that's too much" when your personal threshold is eclipsed. You don't like the look of the paint as it begins to dry.

Can you imagine trying to explain to someone a 100 years from now we tried to stop AI because of training data. It will sound completely absurd.

this, provided you don't mind hopping around a lot, 5 20 dollar a month accounts will get you way more tokens typically, also good free models will show up from time to time on openrouter

If your outlook is 10 years then for sure, its valid. I am not sure how you come to that conclusion logically though. At the beginning of the year we had 0 code agents. Now we have dozens, some are basically free, (of various degrees of quality, sure).

The last 2-3 months of releases have been an unprecedented whirlwind. Code writing will be solved by the end of 2026. Architecture, maybe not, but formatting issues isn't architecture.
