Ah yeah, Carbon it's so OBVIOUSLY a superior element to Argon!

Mythology implies gods etc, Fable implies a something more like a fairy story.

That's fairly obvious to me. Most people associate Myth with the gods, which are kind of the biggest and most powerful things we can imagine.

Not so much of a stretch...

The Google naming convention is so nonsensical it's comical.

With Anthropic and OpenAI, it's obvious immediately which are the better models. I.e. Sol is better than Luna, or Mythos is better than Fable.

But Google, let's pick Argon, which to most folks means mostly nothing. And then... Carbon! So which is better, Argon or Carbon? Nobody fucking knows. Plus neither sounds cool or viral or mysterious or even provokes curiosity.

When Fable was first leaked it sounded different and intriguing... Carbon just sounds... boring.

Except the results are AI slop that no one actually understands and make absolutely zero difference to the world. I.e. research with zero practical applications.

Yay, the slop generator made 2000 pages of Lean which no one understands... to solve a problem with no practical results for human-kind.

Great, well done OpenAI.

OpenAI releases some new PR slop which actually makes no difference to anyone's lives, except the Mathematicians, where it ruins their jobs.

Nothing.

How are they a mess? They look amazing honestly, and I work in an office surrounded by experts in analyzing statements like this.

I don't trust these Artificial Analysis indexes and I'm not sure why anyone considers them authoritative, the site just sprung up a few months ago and now everyone quotes it?

From my own use of the models I find their ranking to be totally inaccurate.

Oh no, the poor sheep!

Why are sheep so important to protect versus wolves? They are both animals that existed in nature and can continue to exist in nature.

Why should we be morally inclined to try and "save" sheep at the expense of wolves. Sheep and goats and deer survived throughout history without the help of humans they will continue to exist, with or without the help of humans against wolves.

I stopped looking at Pelican pictures about a year ago when I realized they mean nothing.

Yeah but if 99.9% of people would get the bike totally wrong, why does it matter if the LLM doesn't get it perfect.

You're nit-picking on a detail no one actually cares about.

Isn't this a good thing? I mean, is there a direct correlation between electricity usage and country = better?

There's a difference to pushing out models and having people and more importantly, enterprises, using them.

There's a ton of good models out there, but most are not making any money or profit.

So let's see what happens next. But I don't see any or many enterprises switching from using their Anthropic or OpenAI models to use Meta.

I see this from everyone I know who works at Anthropic, they seem trapped in some sort of AI psychosis where AI is on the verge of ending the world.

Meanwhile, back in the real-world, most people I know use Chatgpt a few times a week for totally mundane shit and even more people never use AI at all.

And in my world, the latest frontier models still do moronic shit in the codebase all the time.

Meanwhile, my friend X at Anthropic tells me he fears that AI is going to have a terminator moment within the next year or two...

It's bizarre honestly.
