People don't realize how much of a guessing game cavities really are (when they aren't causing you pain).

I have the opposite problem where my teeth hold up very well. Eventually my dentist is like "we should probably fill those". My first cavities and I am middle aged. Sure, sounds good. After he started drilling he remarked "wow, they are larger than I expected". Afterward I realized my freshly filled teeth felt much better. It had happened so gradually I didn't notice they didn't feel normal anymore.

I find it interesting that as the models get better, the "it takes no skill crowd" grows larger, but there is no denying, in hindsight, that the "it still takes skill" group was right at each model iteration.

Opus 5.5 is amazing. It still makes mistakes all the time. If you think it doesn't, you are outing yourself.

Because Clef is a larger model, larger context, can process images. Plus its open weights, so you can run it yourself.

Since it benches better than Jev, Jev is probably smaller and easier to host. They could also be losing a lot of money.

This is the answer and we should not push on it for our own protection. You click a link that takes you to a poorly secured website that leaks sensitive data, without intent protections, you could be accused of crimes.

Luna is really good model that would have been super SOTA at the beginning of the year and its basically free at these prices.

This is a step beyond baseless predictions. Tao also had a "weird" "hypothetical" comment about LLMs solving complex proofs with impossible to human verify Lean.

The study is "new", but the data they are using is old. It has references GPT-4 for god sake.

I understand the struggle, but I feel like so many of these projects are going to ban AI contributions right before it starts getting undeniably better than humans.

The fundamental flaw in all these style arguments against core employment is people's personal desire to have a straight forward path for survival that doesn't involve a lot of strategic thought.

Its hard for highly intelligent people to understand that others simply DGAF. They just want their paycheck and they don't want to think about it deeply.

Thought leaders have existed since the dawn of human history. There were always scuffles at the top, but there were plenty of people that just went about their business, filling their roles and doing their jobs for the tribe.

Agents are getting good but professing they are surpassing you in domain and architectural knowledge with no special prompting is basically self reporting at this point. That could be your job wasn't that complicated or your personal knowledge wasn't that strong, either way, same result.

Don't get me wrong, I am sure we will get to all three of these pillars, probably by next year. I am not naive.

Hopefully we never do something silly like making a lead pushing machine that operates at high velocity, then mass produce it, what a terrible precedence that would set.

this is apples to oranges, the flash version version a full version

this thing is like 5x better than flash at fine grain detail

Anecdotal, of course, but the biggest change I ever made in my life was right before bed: take a screaming hot shower with dim lighting. I'd say 95% of the time, I get in bed and just pass out and have no real memory of time passing before falling asleep.

Same reason why two companies have the same idea, one goes viral and one doesn't. Public opinion matters even if its illogical at times.
