Good points.

I feel where it all loses its legs is the fact that most coding work is intermediate complexity. You won't need super intelligence to code/maintain your CRM or what have you. Specialized firms may pay the premiums Anthropic/OpenAI expect, the vast majority of enterprises won't need to, for the vast majority of their use-cases.

On prem GPU capacity - or decent enough devices for core engineering team - lends itself pretty nicely to local LLMs too. And you own the whole stack this way. Why pay premiums to Anthropic and fuel its trillion dollar valuation?

I think it's a huge bubble about to pop. I get that enterprises are like elephants, slow to move, locked into agreements.

But I think free is going to be infinitely better than paying Anthropic more money than you used to spend on your human payroll. The big pop is coming.

Hey man, give this a shot: https://github.com/Doorman11991/smallcode

Harnesses such as this - combined with locally hosted AI models - are the future.

Ah the protocol that powered ordinals. Is this thing still drawing users, or has flat-lined?

> For now, though, the focus appears to remain on encouraging companies themselves to hold off on layoffs.

I wonder how long that sustains. Is this going to create negative externalities that eventually cause the system to collectively bottom out? Or is this the more utilitarian alternative to UBI? You can debate both sides at this point.

They just woke up after Elon was done with the lawsuit, or what?

Your opinion also holds weight. In fact, I've been in your camp throughout, only having changed my mind in the last few weeks. I've seen legitimate instances of Anthropic costs surprising medium to large enterprises, so that's a demand shock. On the supply side, I've seen some very intense benchmarking going on at r/LocalLlama (the #1 community for opensource LLM tinkering IMO). It just feels like we're in a powder keg right now.

Congrats to Karpathy. I wonder whether this is the right time to join Anthropic. Looks like it from the outside.

But - unpopular opinion - I believe Anthropic is one open-source model away (that can code well) from a massive revenue/stock crash. We're already seeing Claude's cost escalate to astronomical levels. Most coding work is medium difficulty in the grand scheme of things. So the future is an open source model small enough to fit in your local 16GB VRAM, giving you a Claude Code like experience for zero token cost. That's going to wipe out most of Anthropic's current revenue base. It does have several cool initiatives in the pipeline, but bad things happen once your bread and butter is threatened (just ask OpenAI).

Just setting up better SOPs around using AI for coding is going to help them a ton. They can chalk off the sunk cost to a "learning phase", with now being the time to use the lesson learnt to formulate some future-looking standard operating procedures. No need to suddenly go cold-turkey on AI. My 2 cents.

This is totally going to suck, but here's one option I was just suggested a few mins ago: https://www.reddit.com/r/LocalLLaMA/comments/1th1mqx/comment... For context, I was asking about running anything OpenClaw-friendly on my RTX4060 8GB VRAM. I know yours is a more involved use-case, but there's still some optionality here.

Specifically: to explore your opensource options with compute limitations, ask the community at r/LocalLLaMA on reddit. That's where the current SOTA opensource text-to-text models live.

It's going to get worse, way worse, before it gets better. You know that right?

You can't produce infinitely without their being paying demand for your production.

Tactics to wean more people off the old one? Or just a regular outage?

Even had it hit, think of the jobs that would have been created because of this godsend.

p.s. I hate explaining jokes, but this is a "Don't Look Up" reference.

Is this a https://rentahuman.ai/ clone?

> There’s nothing technically stopping Californians from downloading and using it anyway, but by formally banning access, the developers hope to avoid liability without changing their OS for the time being.

The devs' intention makes sense, but unfortunately the regulator is going to come hard after these loopholes.

> The confusion starts with Ofcom not understanding what a website actually is.

Even when they do understand the distinction, regulators such as these flex their power because when power goes unflexed, it's not really power. The fact that such regulators exist is the original sin.

This is part-aware 3D generation.

This is a new technique compared to how AI is currently used to generate 3D objects. State of the art 3D generators like Meshy or Tripo operate as if molding a 3D shape out of clay.

On the other hand, this technique does not generate a 3D shape at all.

It generates code - which then runs, generating a 3D object. A byproduct of this approach is getting a 3D object with separate, functional parts (which is what we actually wanted).

This is interesting. What's the long term vision here?

Made it sound like a Nintendo64 client instead. But I guess that's going to be v64.0 of your client.

You could start an online campaign to put together other aggrieved parties and prepare for a class action lawsuit. There are several reasons (time, commitment, money, opportunity cost, improbability of it all) because of which you may not end up making it happen. But sure, it's a potential step you can take.

Mood tracking is interesting. Now mood tracking tied to your sleep score is even more interesting.

Learnt a new word today: suicidality. Sounds like physicality, but with deadly consequences.

So the implication being?

It's not an open-source tool. The front-end is open & self-hosted. The backend is currently closed. You can fund a ring-fenced API Key and use it with the front-end. Fund it with like $5 or $10.

Do we know who won those wars?

Great. Need a best of list right away.

Increases the blast radius needlessly, and can ultimately introduce bugs in our docs too. Yikes! But yea I get it, it's prettier. What they're actually advocating for is a version of markdown with prettification.
