Based on historical and current events (USA) it takes roughly a couple of years for a country and its leaders to flip from pacifist to aggressive.

We’ll have the same level of security as before; it’s just that, without LLM help, hackers won’t be as effective as before. So the bar is raised.

That's really funny when you consider that generative models also don't hallucinate if you check up on them on every token generated?

If you allow the law to stop you from doing something because of a hypothetical danger, it’ll get severely abused. I come from a country that does and still does this and it’s very ugly.

I am surprised how no one is mentioning how their sneakers dissolves in a couple months? Last store Nike sneaker I bought was 4 years ago. $120 or something and within 2 months it has become unwearable. Since then I only buy new balance from an outlet so the price remains below $100.

Still the last new balance I got are wearing out fast and I am on the look for a newer brand.

I am actually surprised they are still in business and making sales.

How are they going to generate revenue if their old model is Ads on search and the new model is yet to show how revenue can be generated. ChatGPT (on free) is showing ads now but they are not targeted and I highly doubt they are worth anything.

Embedded evaluator will be a great side/consulting-gig for Karpathy and the likes. How do you think these people will be picked?

Military action against whom? the US can’t even handle Iran let alone China.

The security implications of this are very severe when you consider the amount of people who google government websites, banking, crypto and others. And google will happily serve you a phishing website either in ads or results.

What do any of these have to do with you handing over you ID to some random web service?

I've got downvoted and flagged for saying similar. It's actually positive you are the top comment. There has been aggressive brigading around reddit/hackernews and also traditional media. These are malicious companies, so not out of their line. So far, AI seems to be useful only for programming. It's not clear it's useful for other professions. It can't even write straight without being recognizable from afar.

If AI is not even useful for programming, its value drops significantly. And some people seem to have dropped hundreds of billions on this.

Shopify supports multiple countries both as a buyer/seller. I assume there is all kind of customizations needed to comply with each country weird rules. Are all of these software engineers doing core engineering? Probably not. But they are probably tagged as software engineers within the organization.

No, it's not. And it's the kind of evidence that doesn't help and rather confuse. It's not even clear from the article whether an LLM or a dedicated model were used for this purpose.

> That is, I'm not sure that anyone needs to deploy a new compound in order to wreak havoc - they can save themselves a lot of trouble by just making Sarin or VX, God help us.

We already have toxic nerve agents that are largely available for state actors and possibly available for individuals. If you have decided, as a human, to make great harm, you can already do that.

> there is evidence bioengineering is already happening

Mind sharing this evidence with us?

Are the models improving? Because I am not seeing it. I have been trying Astra for a few quantifiable tasks in my codebase and performance wise, it's pretty similar to sol 5.6. Now when it comes to expressing the problem/solution, holy Christ, what a mess the writing has become. It is on the level of Opus 5. Now when it comes to burning money, Astra is just insane. With a $100/month subscription, you can easily burn through your weekly "allowance" in a morning.

Needless to say, for practical purposes am back to 5.6/Opus 4.6-4.8. But hey, maybe I am not smart enough to use LLMs?

A lot of people don't realize that when a leveraged position goes against you (especially with a regulated broker), you get liquidated once your equity runs out, but you can still owe the shortfall on top of that. And the broker can come after your assets to collect it. So your real exposure here is 380K, not 98K.

That being said, I think the parent AI is using paper money. Though who knows, this is the brave new world of AI.

The US singlehandedly dismantled the swiss offshore banking industry. You can’t say they were doing it for moral or legal purposes since they have now moved the activities to the US.

So, yeah, they were never their friends but they were kinda in an abusive yet still beneficial relationship.

This is no longer possible by the way (making an account on twitter with a throwaway email)

Yeah, it side tracked from what is otherwise a surprisingly functional game.

Gold prices have exploded between these two dates. Am I missing something?

It's either a bot or a meat proxy. I have answered another one to see if they are pro-active. I'd have expected that at least they should process the article but apparently tokens are so expensive in this economy.

Nice. Did you find hungry bears at that elevation?

Localbitcoin is dead but there are still venues to trade bitcoin/crypto for cash. They have mostly moved to p2p on facebook and discord.

Future of Software Development.

It’s not clear how much each token costs and how much it’s being subsidized. It was never meant to last, at some point the music was going to stop and you have to pay full price.

I am not sure about the year 2007, but in 2026, they need to be under your monetary authority somehow. That's why most crypto exchanges do not offer service in Europe. Your monetary authority might have a form or an email for complaint and depending on how pro-active they are, they can make the other counter-party very proactive.

I don't see it as much as before but recently I had issues with paying z.ai with my card and the only payment alternative they have is PayPal. PayPal now requires an account with a verified phone number just to process your payment, so it's strictly a no-go for me.

I am guessing the millions of people they have on-boarded in the last decades are what makes the business worth something.

Brave New Internet

> The remaining reserves, some 500 billion cubic metres, are worth around €200 billion at current wholesale prices – enough to pay every single resident of the province €150,000 as compensation and still have 110 billion euros.

So... not enough to buy them homes in Amsterdam and move their factories/schools/jobs? Good thing the citizens fought this. The activity is not economical without seriously endangering your home. I'd bet that if you were willing to give them a good enough deal, most/many people will take it. But there is no good deal here. It's just a collection of wealth (gas) at the expense of the Groningeniens.

They are sharing stuff that makes you consume their stuff. Their position with big ai companies is always vulnerable (asics/direct tsmc relations)
