The name is terrible. Maybe this is vanity, but theres too many conflicting names. Delta airlines, delta dental, delta faucets, etc

It shows that some measure of supervision is needed. That firing all of the coders, and unleashing bots is probably a bad idea (at least for the near future)

I dont know why people seem to care so much about llm safety. They’re trained on the internet. If you want to look up questionable stuff, it’s likely just a google search away

It’s interesting. I think the real way to do this is gradually scale up. Crossing the ocean is hard mode. Instead start by something much shorter and land based. Then you at least have a stable platform to work on and can focus on the other hard problems

The thing is, its not just Meta. It's anyone with a square inch of pixels that you can slap an ad on. Google, Amazon, Microsoft, etc. Meta gets a lot of flack, but it's easy to stop using Facebook. It's a lot harder to stop using Google or Amazon.

This is really about cost-cutting. If Amazon felt it were about being spread too thin, the obvious solution is to make a short list of charities. Or increase the amount donated.

I hate to say this, but it’s a poor choice of names. It’s going to be overshadowed by the crypto company.

This seems more like trying to capture money. If this was about privacy, they could have just gone with duckduckgo.

Given that Tesla has no PR department, you might be waiting a while for that

This is an intentional leak.

Apple is trying to see what the reaction is. They've got some negative press recently for pricing things a little too high (say a $1k monitor stand or $700 wheels). They're watching to see what the reaction to the rumor is. If people say 'no one would ever pay that', then they'll dial it back a bit. If the reaction is 'eh, maybe for those specs', then full steam ahead.

Either way, they can just deny the leak as a rumor without any basis.

I don't see how this is specific to tech firms? Why not any other company currently WFH-ing?

What makes you think the third party box is any better?
