gpt5··on How GLM built its own inference infrastructure
I just gave you a scenario above - that it hacks every computer system in China, including those controlling nuclear missiles. But a super intelligent AI can invent scenarios that almost by definition we cannot think of.
gpt5··on How GLM built its own inference infrastructure
The Information have reports on this as recent as this summer
gpt5··on How GLM built its own inference infrastructure
If AI is super human, it can beat any nation with today’s technology. It can recursively self improve while suppressing any other lab (think about how good it is in hacking computer systems).

I am not inventing a winner take it all scenario, that is what driving the race.

gpt5··on How GLM built its own inference infrastructure
Look up reports by The Information, DeepSeek’s training of its big models are all done on NVidia’s chips (more than that - on smuggled Blackwell as well). There have been attempts by many Chinese labs to train on Huawei h chips, but they have all been limited to more minor models or distillations of the bigger ones.
gpt5··on How GLM built its own inference infrastructure
I’ll just note that NVidia’s moat has never been inference, and there are many chips used at a much larger scale than Chinese chips for inference like TPUs and AMD chips.

The other part is that it’s a bit of a meme here to say that the chip restriction is actually helping China (or shall I say, coordinated effort?). For once, we know that China has put a lot of pressure on the US to relax these controls multiple times. In addition to large chip smuggling networks (e.g. 22% of NVidia’s worldwide revenue magically comes from Singapore, and the ratio has been growing).

Lastly, assuming acceleration in AI (which we ARE seeing), there might not be time to China to catch up. The best estimate right now is that the first EUV chips from China will not come out before 2030. By that time who knows how powerful AI will be.

All I’m saying is that the discussion is so one sided and a bit baselesss with no nuance, that it seems either a meme/groupthink in the community or coordinated. If anything, the data suggests that the US should increase its export controls and better track the tech supply chain if it wants to further curb Chinese progress.

gpt5··on Show HN: Pelican-bicycle alternatives
It’s very likely they all add svg generation into the training data. It’s part of the reason it’s no longer a good benchmark (unless you need to generate SVGs).
gpt5··on Everyone should slow down AI development except for me
Last I've seen, it was compute and not solar panels that is limiting AI. And the US share of worldwide compute capacity has increased from 40% to 70% over the last 4 years, while China has shrinked to just 15% from 35% over that period.

gpt5··on Everyone should slow down AI development except for me
I’m just repeating your words back to you so hopefully you realize how ridiculous it sounds.

Also - I think you totally missed the point of the grandparent poster, which is that US will not let US companies slow down.

gpt5··on Everyone should slow down AI development except for me
You are right, US can do nothing on AI. After all, it doesn't have the shipbuilding capacity or even beat sandal-wearing islamists.
gpt5··on A misalignment of AI in mathematics
I think that the main thing people in this thread are missing, is that it's not about math. AI progression is very likely to affect every single thing humans can do today. Mathematicians are feeling the blow this week, especially as there was wide spread denial in that math community over the capabilities of AI over the last few years, but it's the same problem everywhere.
gpt5··on I spent $220 on Google app ads and 60% of the installs were robots
Residential proxies are achieved in many, many ways. The most common is simply people installing software and leaving some checkbox checked, or agreeing to it unknowingly. In the same way that smart TV downloadable apps and games tend to include them.
gpt5··on Moonshot serves Claude instead of Kimi and collects exchanges for model training
For a specific post it’s always a guess. When it’s as recurring and consistent as it is here across all posts, it has crossed the point of preponderance of evidence.

And highlighting when it happens is exactly what helps people realize it’s not a one off.

gpt5··on Moonshot serves Claude instead of Kimi and collects exchanges for model training
It’s useful to raise awareness. The rules were made during a different period, where motivated state actors astroturfing were not that prevalent.
gpt5··on Moonshot serves Claude instead of Kimi and collects exchanges for model training
If this was a regular topic on an American company so blatantly violating user data and lying, people would be pissed.

Unfortunately, hacker news is being so heavily astroturfed that I counted dozens of comments just justifying this behavior appearing very quickly as this post appeared on the front page, together with its position being clearly suppressed.

gpt5··on Cognition launches new SWE-2 model, Rivaling Fable 5.1 and GPT-Astra
Terminal Bench 4.0 did not introduce new questions. All tasks were public for a while. If you look at GLM 5.2, which is using the same base model as 5.3, but was released prior to most tasks, it does extremely horribly on terminal Bench 3.0 (4 to 8 times worse than every other model) - source: https://benchlm.ai/benchmarks/terminal-bench-3
gpt5··on Google will buy half the electricity from one of Finland's nuclear power plants
Not everything is partisan, and land is only a small factor in where to decide to place a data centers. The top 4 out of 5 states with the most data centers are blue states.

The reason Texas is experiencing a boom in data centers is friendlier power grid policies to data centers (similar to why Google is building in Finland), in combination with (relatively small) tax incentives.

gpt5··on DeepSeek v4.1 Flash
It has nothing to do with open vs closed or "hacker" philosphy. See this the announcement of the closed Seedance 2.5 - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49138302

Direct quote from the second top comment:

> Whenever I see the new releases around video generation (and image) generation models, I get goosebumps, because it just feels so fun to work with them.

Compare that with the launch of ChatGPT Image of yesterday.

I disagree twice. It was very cool to see Steve Jobs, and he was heavily involved in the work and design decisions, perhaps even more than the people presenting.
gpt5··on How GPT‑5.6 Sol helps run quantum computing experiments
Give a single post as an example where the anti AI comments are prevalent?
gpt5··on How GPT‑5.6 Sol helps run quantum computing experiments
Especially since these anti-AI comments completely disappear in posts about Chinese AI progress.
gpt5··on ChatGPT Images 2.5
Really nice share. I bet you could automate the manual work with today's models
gpt5··on ChatGPT Images 2.5
There is no way to cache the answer to questions that differ by even one token reliably without introducing potential problems.
gpt5··on Muse Spark 1.3
Both versions of DeepSWE (1.0 and 1.1) are likely not that meaningful anymore. Whether through models progression or through contamination.
gpt5··on Muse Spark 1.3
We should just consider the pelican bench as saturated and mostly meaningless.
gpt5··on U.S. State Department pauses immigrant visa applications
The pause on visa appointments does not apply to H1-B and L1 as they are nonimmigrant visas. It applies to family based immigration visa, diversity visa, and EB-1/2/3 when you do processing abroad.

(You might have known that, but I thought it's worth clarifying).

gpt5··on GLM-5.3-Flash
They tell you, and allow you to opt out in certain plans.
gpt5··on More than half of adults in U.S. say they lack basic statistical understanding
I think the average person is definitely intelligent. It's just that we are very prone to mixing intelligence with knowledge in addition to also forgetting how long it took us to learn things that are so automatic for us we see them as trivial.

That's just whataboutism that ignores the order of magnitude scale differences of the subsidies that were provided in China in the original comment.

Whatever you think the fourth amendment is supposed to do, doesn’t match reality. Despite your ad-hominem attack.
