upmind··on Inkling: Our Open-Weights Model
unlikely I think, they're likely doing this to garner some interest in their company but they seem pretty interested in revenue (judging by the companies they're working with)
upmind··on Zig Creator Calls Spade a Spade, Anthropic Blows Smoke
Andrew Kelley's thoughts on Jared Sumner is insanely savage.
upmind··on Show HN: 18 Words
what made you go with 18?
upmind··on 30papers.com – Ilya's 30 essential ML papers, in a beginner friendly format
I wonder how up to date these papers are because I imagine this list came out >6 years ago
upmind··on Every new car sold in the European Union must include a driver monitoring camera
not saying what the EU does is a good thing but why don't I ever see any legislations like this from the US? we'd still have lightning on iPhones if it wasn't for the EU so some of what they introduce is net positive...
upmind··on Mark Zuckerberg's biggest legal nightmare yet could cost Meta $1.4T
do all social media sites not suffer from the same issues or am I wrong? e.g., snapchat, tiktok, youtube? Why is Meta being singled out?
upmind··on Search engines alternatives now that Google isn't Google anymore
Agreed. I really like the feature. For people saying it's quite bad, from speaking to an engineer on that team at Google he says it's literally the output of a tiny LLM being fed the top websites results which makes sense to me.
upmind··on “Too dangerous to release” or just too expensive?
The goal for anthropic is safe AGI. A) this model is dangerous in the hands of consumers. B)They do not want China to train on these models.
upmind··on Spotify adds 'Verified' badges to distinguish human artists from AI
why does it matter to you if it's AI or not? if you enjoy a song you shouldn't resent it just because it's AI generated. Me personally there's many AI songs that I like and enjoy listening to.
upmind··on Apple Has Given Up on the Vision Pro After M5 Refresh Flop
Apple has really dropped the ball recently, as someone who was a die-hard apple fan 10 years ago now I've started moving off the ecosystem.
upmind··on Muse Spark: Scaling towards personal superintelligence
Sure it's not as good as Claude right now but for their first model in years it's certainly not bad. I hope they continue to develop models, having another competitor in the space would be nice.
upmind··on Sam Altman may control our future – can he be trusted?
Agreed, his two posts read really weirdly. He made a deliberately vague(?) initial post to get a response and I'm not sure how I feel about his story as you've said, if I was Sam Altman I'd be wary of anyone coming up to me too.
upmind··on Dropping Cloudflare for Bunny.net
Am I the only one who thinks their reason for why theyre leaving Cloudflare didn't sound particularly sound... This blog post reads like something a Bunny.net employee would write
upmind··on SWE-bench will hit 90% this year
Maybe unpopular opinion but I think at this point SWE-Bench has done its part and we need a new benchmark because Gemini being on/near the same level as Claude is obviously wrong
upmind··on LinkedIn uses 2.4 GB RAM across two tabs
As someone who knows xAI employees, he does use it a LOT and reports bugs very often afaik
upmind··on Delve – Fake Compliance as a Service
What's the TLDR? Should one be worried if their business uses Delve?
upmind··on Europe takes first step to banning AI-generated child sexual abuse images
We really need it possible to push laws faster, 2026 is going to be an insane year for multimodal models and laws are simply not keeping up.
upmind··on GPT‑5.3 Instant
I wonder when / if GPT will stop with the emdash.
upmind··on MacBook Pro with M5 Pro and M5 Max
It doesn't feel like much has changed from the previous gen? Just a new chip + memory?
upmind··on Elevated Errors in Claude.ai
Jarred (from Bun) said that a lot of the errors are being of how much they've scaled in users recently (i.e., the flock that came from OpenAI)
upmind··on Poll: Which VCs Are Tier 1?
This is cool but also it requires people to be quite knowledgeable about VCs, I know a lot of VCs but can say there was still a good amount that I didn't know there which means I won't vote for them. Also, this should be a ShowHN, no?
upmind··on Google just killed my project
This reads like a Linkedin post, I'm sure A) you can make something else B) you didn't think this would last forever

Good luck!

upmind··on Coasty hit #1 on OSWorld at 82% – an AI that does anything on a computer
Apart from the few typos, super impressive! What are you guys doing differently to the AI labs you mentioned? How will you maintain your lead?
upmind··on ChatGPT uninstalls surged by 295% after DoD deal
How much do we think that number is? I don't think we can determine it from the number of downloads it went down by? I prefer absolute numbers to percentages
upmind··on “Microslop” filtered in the official Microsoft Copilot Discord server
Discord really needs some enterprise plan. I've been saying this for years, they can take down slack.
upmind··on Show HN: I built a sub-500ms latency voice agent from scratch
"extensively" = 2 comments?
upmind··on New iPad Air, powered by M4
They're quite scared to take risks I think, from what I heard it seems it was meant to be released already but they've delayed it a bunch, I wonder if in part due to AVP failure.
upmind··on Motorola announces a partnership with GrapheneOS
Might buy one tbh
upmind··on Apple AI servers unused in warehouses due to low Apple Intelligence usage
I don't think the average consumer is thinking about junkware nor physical design, it's just most people have iPhones especially in tech / young adults and thus more want to be on iPhone to share messages, airdrop, airpod support etcetc. They've created a network effect.
upmind··on Apple AI servers unused in warehouses due to low Apple Intelligence usage
What's insane is that the market / users doesn't care, they're making more than ever... It's quite sad to see that vision pro, apple Intelligence and liquid glass were all failures and no one cared... I hope android makes a comeback against Apple in the US so they're forced to innovate.
