It's only marginally better in the things it's actually comparable to. A\ models are MUCH better in many more things; eg: things Kimi/etc. didn't distill.

For those things the difference is like a cliff.

Safety from what? Competitors? That sounds like a product decision. They're puking on any requests that could be used to create LLMs or competitive products.

I'm reminded of the thing that HN drools over constantly with LISP languages.

To a corporation?

How much time is `(random-uuid7-bytes)` taking?

The BEAM?

Cronie doesn't have a `@reboot` meta-trigger?

Is your deliberate misspelling of "Macintosh" spell-check or the same sort of intransigence that compels some people to misspell "Micro$oft" thinking they're clever?

What do you reckon the "G" in GUI stands for, out of curiosity?

Presumably a bunch of Adolf's did too, prior to, you know, the 1930's.

This is half the game. I fondly remember a few "game days" in the early 80's with some friends spending hours "rolling" Traveller characters. Partly because it was quite possible for your character to due DURING GENERATION, before the "rpg" part of the game actually started.

> Turns out the humans weren't so bad after all...

The people pushing AI _over_ humans never thought they were. They just don't care about 'good' or 'bad', only 'time-to-market'. A bad app making money is better than a good one that isn't deployed yet. And who cares about anything past the end of the quarter? That's the next guy's problem.

There are "show hn" submissions for things that people just want to show off multiple times a week.
