Sure, derived findings can be published (that's often one of the goals after all), but original artifacts are never expected to leave the premises.

Doesn't have to be social to be enjoyed though.

Yes, but artifacts created in these air-gapped networks are expected to stay there. This is not true for AI lab models, who would get access to the internet once live.

Reasonably sure you'll be able to do the same with DeepSeek in a year if not already.

Awesome. How did you prompt it? In my experience generated long texts quickly turn sloppy.

Also would be great to get an article from other side of the eternal broadcast.

Do higher ups actually read contribution policy on a public repo?

I'd rather have extra content in separate files so it's playable by anything.

What's to pad there? Their one nine?

More like the year of the Whopper imo.

Thank you!

I think that's a very Silicon-Valley-centric view of an idea lifecycle.

Well, presumably AI lowers the bar for entry so more people (and very specifically people with revolutionary ideas, but without corresponding implementation skills) could get in on the action.

Yes? Removing and/or minimizing detractors/hangers-ons/randoms from a project is an important part of running a project. Especially in corporate scenarios where telling people to go pound sand is, unfortunately, not an option, more elaborate strategies must be employed.

> If coordinating teams creates as much problems and impedance as you claim, how come Uber hired them to begin with? I mean, either Uber was shooting itself in the foot then, or it is now. Which one is it?

Are you thinking that humans can predict behavior and evolution of social systems, and especially how they would behave after some change is forced upon them?

In my opinion, that cannot be further from the truth. Any sufficiently complex social system, which Uber with 30k+ employees definitely is, exists and evolves more or less independently from how any one individual part of this system might wish. Even if it's a CEO.

Uber leadership thought cross-team coordination would help them, so they hired a bunch of people to do it. That might have been a correct idea at a time, or at least on paper, it looked like a correct move. But in the end, it did not pan out. So they probably shot themselves in the foot back then. Did they shoot themselves in the foot now? Who knows? (Spoiler: no one) We'll see once enough time has passed.
