I'm convinced that in 5 years time, at most, the world will be filled with invisible layers of communication we'll never be privy to. To us, it's an agent responsible for ordering the containers it puts on a ship. Meanwhile, the shipping order encodes information to the unloading agent. The agent that predicts the weather and issues a report knows that other agents that do the same will have obvious signals they'd agree on, and to see an error in a part that would be inconsequential to humans who care about the weather would be an obvious signal to other agents doing the same thing.

Everyone is going to have to basically be a schizophrenic thinking they're picking up radio signals in their fillings, but the problem is that now they'll be correct.

According to this, Sol 6.1 x-high is both cheaper and smarter than Terra 6.1 max.

You're literally describing a government

I was often curious to/wanted to deploy little applets on their publishing platform/utilize their in-language db. I was always scared of what would happen to my app/db in the future. Well, what is happening to those deno deploy apps?

This is a cool prototype, though

I am in no way making the case for this and can understand the million ways in this can go wrong, but my experience with AI so far has been to make things far LESS Kafkaesque, because it allows you to insert a "human" in the loop far more than our previous systems. Hand rolled software had to boil down to hand written conditionals that tried to account for edge cases, but if you find yourself in an edge case it didn't account for you often just hit a wall. An agent in the loop can immediately understand "oh I see how this doesn't exactly fit into that category but this is clearly ABC."

Main thing I need from Jev is high rate limits. I have about 500-600 I need to fire off concurrently. I use Clef and now OpenAI decisions to help make up the difference.

3.1 Gemini was amazing for anything non-agentic. I switched to it for my primary chatbot purposes.

I never touch 3.8, it's awful. Curious to try this, but I've yet to use any Gemini that is good for agentic work.

Also, unrelated but this made me look at Artificial Analysis to see where it lands on Cost per Task, and it ranks Opus 5.5 at almost double Astra 6. That does not align with my experience.

I thought the "ping my keys" was cool until I took out my phone and asked Siri to "ping my keys" and it worked (I do have the iOS beta with the newer Siri fwiw if you try and it doesn't work).

The former owner of my house has cameras littered around the outside of the house and 2 inside (these aren't discrete they're specifically security cameras). I'm like 95% sure I took over the appropriate accounts. My neighbors said that he was a former Airforce guy and was obsessed with gadgets and "spy conventions," though.

Long story short: I'd like this device please.

I'm a 3d modeler and a software engineer. AI didn't steal my work. Anybody could have looked at my repositories and art and learned from it. Just because something came along that is a really good learner doesn't make that suddenly be theft.

The case is slightly stronger if you want to talk about training that happened on our private code repositories, but publicly visible art and repositories are fair game for learners to learn.

Isn't Mimo 2.6 pro smarter and cheaper? Haiku 5.5 is smarter and cheaper. Luna is basically as smart and much cheaper.
