They were not joking

Grok is not the best model around, but it's decent. It gets the basic job done at a low price. I don't think it can advance frontier Math, yet.

Hello. Nice to meet you.

As much as I want to believe that Meta wants to do good, it's a great leap of faith. I know this sounds cynical, but isn't that warranted in Meta's case?

Many still struggle with getting fizzbuzz right.

They are going to end up paying much lesser. And that amount would be a loose change compared to what money they bring in.

Which model is it?

That was sarcasm.

I feel likely Demis wants to focus on research and healthcare with AI. Gemini is under huge pressure to monetize. This seems like a good step.

I am cynical about this, but I would be careful about giving Meta access even to my open source code by myself.

I am available for hire.

Sundar Pichai: @DemisHassabis is stepping up to become Chair of @GoogleDeepMind & Chief Scientist of Alphabet, in addition to leading @IsomorphicLabs.

So it's not stepping down, right?

Yes. Corrected.

Small digression. Silicon Valley never ceases to deliver top quality entertainment. We desperately need new iteration of Silicon Valley series.

On a serious notes, this seems like a desperate attempt to sway public opinion, but hey, Apple is no saint either. This will be a fun season.

AI denial is stuck in 2023.

At this time, a generic AI snark is tiring. AI is not perfect, but it's an amazingly useful tool, we should accept it and move on.

They don't mention Grok at all.

There would be some laws in place. And it would also stress the relationship with Elon.

Yes, that's what I meant.

Only the third country to achieve this. Kudos.

There's another startup trying reusable rockets.

Why are output tokens costlier?

These models are great, but what's the potential use? No small entity can run them.

Sometimes the tactical thing is to do the right thing.

I did not understand this. What does this do exactly?

Apple was smart to move to Gemini before suing OpenAI. But I feel nothing's gonna come out of it.

I don't like him. I don't hate him either. He's not a thing in my life. But the companies are, SpaceX etc. do impact me.

Basically I would hate to see HN become Reddit.

I did not get it. But may be the onus is to not have a collective bias?

I understand no one here likes Elon. But does it mean we find justifications for our collective bias in everything his companies do?

garnix will be shutting down and deleting all user data on July 15th. Read the blog post here (OP's link). wut?

The claims are pretty bold. I think 5.6 may exceed Fable.
