tremeon Godot will no longer accept AI-authored code contributions

I don't understand how people can make such sarcastic remarks given AI progress in coding past 8 months

tremeon Godot will no longer accept AI-authored code contributions

most frontier labs have such AI-based triage process, it appears most opensource projects haven't figured how to do this.

tremeon OpenRouter raises $113M Series B

I understand that the refund policy is documented. But “clearly documented” and “fair to the customer” are separate questions.

If a user cancels API access while still holding prepaid credits, that unused balance represents compute they never consumed. Unlike a shipped physical product or a fixed one-time service cost, unused API credit does not seem to impose much marginal cost on OpenRouter to reallocate or refund.

So the issue isn’t whether the policy is disclosed. It’s whether keeping unused prepaid credit after cancellation is the right default, especially when the user is no longer able or willing to use the service.

how come cancelling api keys with left over prepaid credit isn't refunded?

tremeon The last six months in LLMs in five minutes

you are experiencing reverse Dunning–Kruger effect.

For someone that just dabbled in coding prior, it went from AI building 80%, and struggling through to finish the 20% when trying to build an app/website.

now it's like 97% and struggling with last 3%. Yes it'll look rough around the edges when evaulated by a senior dev, but being able to build MVP level things to completion with ease helps you stay engaged and motivated to continue and learn.

tremeon Tesla has been testing a robotaxi service in the Bay Area for most of the year

I'm eagerly awaiting you to break grounds, invest 100's of millions, hire top researchers in field and out compete Elon.

tremeon Tesla has been testing a robotaxi service in the Bay Area for most of the year

As a smart man once said: 'A lie can travel half way around the world while the truth is putting on its shoes.'

https://www.quora.com/Was-Tesla-bailed-out-by-the-US-governm...

No, Tesla did not receive any funds under the 2009 auto industry bailout.[1] The $80.7 billion went to Chrysler and GM.

Tesla did receive a government loan of $465 million under the Advanced Technology Vehicle Manufacturing program, a program signed into law by Bush in 2008. Tesla subsequently repaid that loan.

tremeon Tesla has been testing a robotaxi service in the Bay Area for most of the year

Tesla took government loans and paid them all back with interest. there was never any bailout but I can tell you just hate the man regardless of facts.

Feel free to put your money where your mouth is by shorting TESLA if you feel like it's so overvalued. and get crushed like everyone that did just that along the way.

conceptually we had eletric cars since 1900. Doesn't mean much until someone improves it to mass market adoptable level and mass produce it like Elon did with TESLA.

It's silly to compare available tech from 90s from what's possible nowadays with 1000x + BCI bandwidth done with Neuralink

tremeon Tesla has been testing a robotaxi service in the Bay Area for most of the year

you don't know anything about how business works if you can't appreciate how Elon managed to turn Tesla at concept car stage to current mass manufacturing capacities and being more valuable than next 7 car companies combined.

the man got into Stanford for Physics, and there are more than enough anecdotes from his biography done by Walter Isaacson that confirm his technical prowess.

The man may exaggerate pace of progress but he has more than proved him self with TESLA, SpaceX, Neuralink. that's 3 bleeding edge companies in 3 different industries.

p.s) For those misinformed about state of Neuralink. Currently in beta with quadriplegic patients.

tbh even functional role of a teacher is about to be upend with AI. All I know is I rather my children be taught something that will be useful with assumption that everyone will have access to have a tool like chatgpt at home/work.
