chipgap98··on How accurate have Ed Zitron's AI skeptic predictions been?
What are the predictions he has made that this article omits?

He is making predictions with specific timelines. No one is forcing him to do that. It is reasonable criticism to say he is make poor predictions.

chipgap98··on Ask HN: How do you deal with people who trust LLMs?
I would argue for many people social media and news aggregators do the exact same thing. People site Instagram or TikTok as the source of their data in the same way others site ChatGPT
chipgap98··on Ask HN: How do you deal with people who trust LLMs?
Is this any different than people who believe random things they read on sketchy news sites or social media?

In what world does China have a non-imperialist foreign policy?
chipgap98··on How will OpenAI compete?
But OpenAI has more serious competition than those others did when they were coming up. That puts pressure on them to figure out ads and they dragged their feet getting started
chipgap98··on How will OpenAI compete?
Deepseek showed that distillation is possible. Their results are possible without someone else doing the leading edge training

Same and honestly I haven't really missed my ChatGPT subscription since I canceled. I also have access to both (ChatGPT and Claude) enterprise tools at work and rarely feel like I want to use ChatGPT in that setting either
chipgap98··on Employers, please use postmarked letters for job applications (2025)
I do think this is going to be part of the solution to a lot of AI slop is adding small fees to do a thing
chipgap98··on If you tax them, will they leave?
Ah yes. There are famously no billionaires who live in New York City
chipgap98··on If you tax them, will they leave?
Who said "we have to tax them, or else they leave"? That doesn't seem to be what anyone is saying. The issue is that this group is threatening to leave if they are taxed.

I agree you should want to avoid having an income disparity like this, but we are where we are. The goal of this tax is to help correct that disparity.

chipgap98··on Instant Checkout and the Agentic Commerce Protocol
I agree with this, but there were/are alternatives to Google that are functional but not as good. People still ended up choosing to use Google.
chipgap98··on Claude Sonnet 4.5
Interesting that this is better than Opus 4.1. I want to see how this holds up under real world use, but if that's the case its very impressive.

I wonder how long it will be before we get Opus 4.5

How is this not a problem with the law rather than a problem with Cloudflare?

I've been working with Alex at Channel3 closely on building a product on top of their service. They are very responsive and the product is getting better every day. I'm looking forward to seeing where Channel3 goes from here
chipgap98··on React Meta-Framework Feels Broken, Here's Why
Aren't the "defineApp" and "route" methods in rwsdk also magic? It feels like rwsdk is just being more deliberate about when and where to introduce those magic functions.

I'm a big fan of rwsdk so far. Thanks for building!

chipgap98··on Waymo and Toyota outline partnership to advance autonomous driving deployment
I think it is likely that people order Waymo's through Uber in the future
chipgap98··on Waymo and Toyota outline partnership to advance autonomous driving deployment
Uber is acting as an aggregator for all types of rides. Customers have the direct relationship with Uber. Unless Waymo completely runs away with autonomous driving then I think Uber has a lot of leverage.
