Thanks, I work at oai and will relay your approval to my line manager

It’s an overwhelming public interest, and it’s not an animal cruelty thing: it’s like 100 people running a business on public land, where the externality is congestion in the lower loop, and horse shit strewn on the ground.

The only reason this exists today is because normal search providers haven’t been completely disintermediated.

As soon as 100% of traffic to Google searches is not human eyes, they can’t fund it by ad rev, and you will need a service like this

Ok I’ll bite:

30 horses in the park, 6h per horse per day, uniform pooping

Call it 14 kg of feces per day per horse

Humans shit ~100g/day

115k park visitors a day

For humans to match that horse output, nearly 1% of all daily visitors would have to be pooping on the ground…

Granted, the horses have waste catchers, but even under a 90% efficiency regime it’s still 10kg of horseshit spread over the lower loop

It’s not about animal rights at all. Animal rights angle is the strawman used by TWU. Source: I spend 7h in CP/week

I’m broadly skeptical that atoms and electricity can be conscious

But you can: you can just: use the thing you’ve built and derive utility from it, casting aside the origin

Yeah my first impression here is just “wow python is bad”

Hey are we re inventing Tim berners Lee solid protocol

Ngl I think this is partially an artifact of it having a better grasp of English than almost everyone

Frequently its choice of a particular word is perfect and gives me the vocabulary to talk about the task at hand the way I want

Like it’s tuned to just be “maximally dense” instead of “dense/technical where you can handle it and simple where you can’t”

It doesn’t know where your language strengths/weaknesses are, so it can’t communicate to you like a fellow human does.

Quality and accuracy of information on the internet is going to shit:

Models are already paying per search for gated access to higher accuracy info (this is abstracted by anthropic, chatgpt etc currently where they have cut deals w Google etc to allow their traffic through)

Models don’t currently interact with the economy directly in a real way (by eg themselves deciding to pay for a high quality information source), but they will within a few months as folks get more claw-like agents

Those transactions can happen with bitcoin…. or they can happen on stripe

At least that’s my read

Totally fixable w a little configuration (ask Claude)

But yeah it’s completely ridiculous and frustrating that the default is to just lock up your DE

Oh my pi already prunes tool calls on compaction (not sure if normal pi also does this)

You need to git good

The fact that you’re nervous means you will be the first to be replaced!
