I remember this. Have they ever rolled it back?
gastonmorixe··on Show HN: Open source framework OpenAI uses for Advanced Voice
80% of the times I’m experiencing choppy audio on my iPhone 15 Pro Max (18.1b) on Voice Mode (Standard and Advanced). My internet connection is FTTH and WiFi 7 state of the art router.

I wonder if this is because bugs or the crazy load livekit may be going through given the popularity in ChatGPT voice modes right now.

Thanks

Nice they have many partners on this. I see Azure as well.

There is a common consensus that the new Realtime API is not actually using the same Advanced Voice model / engine - or however it works - since at least the TTS part doesn’t seem to be as capable as the one shipped with the official OpenAI app.

Any idea on this?

gastonmorixe··on I Hacked My Friend's Phone to Show How Easy It Is [video]
Therefore, by adding multiple ways to log in/recover an account, each additional one lowers the safety?

Also, worse: does this mean that by just having one bad 2FA/recovery method like SMS along with more secure ones like TOTP/RFC 6238 or hardware keys, the overall security level is as low/bad as the worst method undermining the rest? Why do companies still allow or even encourage multiple methods (and SMS)?

I love the convenience of SMS sometimes, but if it doesn't add any security at all, just a sense of fake security that they won't even need an IMEI from me, just my phone number, jeez. This should be solved or forbidden by major institutions and services.

gastonmorixe··on Is My Blue Your Blue?
Yeah, not an expert on True Tone but I'd leave it enabled. I agree it should help if it does what I guess it should.

That being said I haven't read about it in a long time nor tested without it.

It was fun! If you are on a Mac / iPhone / iPad:

- Remember to disable Night Shift (went from 86% to 94% by disabling it)

- Use the Apple Display (not external one unless you know it's calibrated and good)

gastonmorixe··on Diffusion on syntax trees for program synthesis
could diffusion work at binary level? I mean, could we train a diffusion model to generate a final binary of a program given a prompt? probably AST may be better but the binary I feel is extremely easy to at least test fast if it works or not. Though there may be a lot of drawbacks, if this is possible I can't wait until we ask "give me an app that does that" and the diffusion model starts generating all te bytes the app to do the job. Just wondering

Nice! I’d love to know if AI-Ad / tracking / telemetry / etc blocking could be improved for MITM network layer filtering not just the browser.
