So Anthropic and other US AI companies... stole harder, and therefore deserve more?

I wonder if Portuguese voices stopped drifting towards Spanish in this release.

I will slightly disagree on a small slice: Their harness/instruction makes Opus/Fable so much better to work with.

Honestly, _this_ was their moat more than Composer to me.

Yeah. There is just one dominant direction when you take into account how it's clearly depicted to the rest of the world, and no direct popular vote for the highest chair.

Oh wait, that's the United States. The difference between red and blue is just that it's more able to do business and bombs come with flowers when dealing with federal governments of the latter.

The real Pareto is the lawyer who was the victim of the Telerj prank call in the 80s. Don't be fooled!

Code and reasoning generated by Opus/Fable via Cursor seems to be quite better than Claude Code's for the same prompt.

I mean, Sam should be more of a ghoul with those creepy sunken eyes. And Dario that guy with hair on the sides.

Sakana is certainly a choice of a name. In portuguese, goes from anything between "scoundrel" to "sleazebag".

That's a name choice...

This is a fair point, alongside the one about the hidden content in the weights.

Exactly why my prime suspect would be the one country with focus on proprietary models, and the one country prone to bombing others, including with nuclear weapons.

Eh, I'd be more concerned about the Three-Letters and the One country that dropped an A-bomb.

..."just"?

Did they forget it's proprietary, and from the same person that made OpenFeint, which also had a privacy lawsuit?

Hype-based ones like what's described in the original blog post are a nightmare. And I don't even need to pull the privacy card; the UX is already daunting enough.

A good benchmark I have is my wife, who didn't grow messing around with computers and a tinkerer's mindset: if she's taking more than a couple of tries or days to tinker and start living with something new, I need either to prep a better backup plan, or to cut it off. Very specialized stuff (like light bulb colors) are still too expensive to have more manual-like controls, but almost everything toggleable should have something one can press.
