please do yourself a favor and use something far more efficient ! GLM5.3 will make you super happy

GLM5.3 provided on Synthetic doesn't seem to have any issue talking about it :

It even mentions the censoring.

w4yai··on OpenClaw 2.0, Accidentally
Is OpenClaw / Hermes doing anything better than another harness for RE stuff ? I'm using Kimi Code with few skills, MCPs and that's basically everything I need. Am I missing something ?

Never ask the model what model it is. Every single model may answer wrong answer if you keep asking.

> If they won't - then EU is doing the right thing laying low.

Exactly. People seem to forget that US is burning money at an accelerating rate without any promise of returns. This is a high risk situation. Time will tell.

We're reinventing the wheel we tried to avoid in the first place.

Please, Microsoft, PLEASE ! You can do BETTER ! Stop acting like an internship for every single feature you add ! Where's the money going ?

never trust what a model says it is.

So ? What did you expect, you think USA will remain number one for ever ?
w4yai··on Ten advances in mathematics and theoretical computer science
If you think it's "ok", then you're probably not using it the right way.

I've been analyzing thousands of x86 traces and the AI made sense of them at a scale no previous human or algorithm could do before - I've been reading assembly everyday for half of my life. I'm doing prototypes in minutes what would take hours or days before. AI is answering questions in such a precise way in so many domains, learning something has never been easier.

This is "just ok" for you ? What do you need exactly ? god omniscience ? come on, can't we just appreciate for what it is and be excited about the future ?

AI already have an impact, and yes this is PR hype because this is a product. Yet both can be true at the same time. We're not blindly eating what's OpenAI is serving us as gold truth, we're just admitting it's doing remarkable progress.

Remember October 2024 Pelicans [1] ? It's been only less than 2 years.

We don't know what will come in the next 2 years. But the progress doesn't seem to stop for now.

w4yai··on Karpathy’s Pelican
> You go and hire a vector artist

Yeah, but then, you recruit the artist for $XXX - whereas you "recruit" your LLM for $0.XXX for the same task.

Of course the quality difference is huge. But sometimes you don't need that level of quality.

Also, finding a vector artist takes days of communication, payment settlement, revisions, etc.

Not always the most practical solution.

> I haven't really seen evidence that any ai can reliably draw a pelican riding a bicycle

Please remember, we've started from there :

https://simonwillison.net/2024/Oct/25/pelicans-on-a-bicycle/

When it started, it was clear what LLM would stand out, its style, etc. Nowadays, the pelicans look similar, the difference is in details and sometimes hard to catch. Sure, the task is not completed perfectly, but that's not the point. It was supposed to be a benchmark to quickly benchmark a LLM against others.

Models don't know who they are. Stop asking this question to the model as a source of truth.
w4yai··on Kimi-K3 on HuggingFace
As repeated many, many times, models usually don't know about their own name. Claude thinks he's ChatGPT, ChatGPT thinks he's DeepSeek, and Kimi thinks he's Claude. Nothing interesting to see here. Google it.
