lol, I Ctrl+F'ed for this brand after having pointed my agent at it. There's some pretty bad stuff on there, some of which I've already reported to Vizio.

If you wanted to give your coding agent a crack at the internet connection thing and patching that out, there's some sort of pairing you can do over LAN to allow access to launch web content, this can be chained with old Chromium RCEs to gain root access.

This doesn't seem particularly notable and is in line with Anthropic and OpenAI's approach of restricting release/access to more capable models.

They announced it live on stage at their conference, apparently with no accompanying blog post.

> but I've seen it happen to the last technically-inclined 500k+ job class that was untouchable by all accounts

And what job class was this?

For orgs, each user was allotted their own quota. For messages beyond that quota, a pooled budget is available.

FYI, these are the multipliers for annual plan. I would hazard a guess most people are not on an annual plan

In terms of raw token cost, I've seen a couple providers at (all prices in terms of Mtok) $0.95 input/$0.15 cache input/$5 output vs $3 input/$15 output for sonnet.

Task prices of courses will be more interesting - a dumber model may use more tokens to get to the same goal.

copy/paste doesn't tell you much - here's the text/html content they put on your clipboard if you're curious. Apparently GDocs supports this out of the box, just hides it from the selection box. Which makes sense given that it doesn't support any font.

That's exactly where my mind went as soon as I read the title. HN rules say to "use the original title, unless it is misleading". I think the original title meets the misleading bar but I can't speak for other readers.

It converts back to paid automatically if you had an existing paid subscription before. No other cases. In any case, this is still a valuable service they are providing for 6mo for free, which many will appreciate even if the goal is to recruit more users.

I assume you're talking about 50t/s? My guess is that providers are poorly managing resources.

Slow inference is also present on z.ai, eyeballing it the 4.7 flash model was twice as slow as regular 4.7 right now.
