The time given to the model. So the difference between two generations is just somethng trivially different like: "12:35" vs 12:36"

It's actually quite fascinating if you watch it for 5 minutes. Some models are overall bad, but others nail it in one minute and butcher it in the next.

It's perhaps the best example I have seen of model drift driven by just small, seemingly unimportant changes to the prompt.

Did you guys change the pricing of Exa?

When I checked this a year or so ago, I might have gotten the impression that it was cheaper. Now, it costs the same as what Perplexity charges for search-grounded queries, which is the same as Google charges for Gemini queries with search.

So basically, one player sets a price, and everyone is anchored on that as the pricing for the entire category? I'm just genuinely interested in why every offering in this space is priced like this.

It seems a bit misaligned with how pure LLM queries are priced.

I have a product that would benefit from search grounding, but this pricing wouldn't work with my volume of queries.

This is wild, but many studies have reached the same conclusion.

I remember reading somewhere that heart transplant recipients have random memory flashes that are not their memories, and sometimes they develop new personality traits.

This is a very sneaky ethically gray company. Their app is not only of terrible quality but also full of dark patterns. I'm convinced that any revenue they make comes from people who can't figure out how to cancel. Stay away from it.

Ohh nice catch. Will do. Thanks

I'm a designer. I built brainglue.ai without Figma, a design system, or a UI library. I just went directly to code (react+tailwind) and let a style organically emerge.

I'm not saying that I'm a unicorn and that my idea-to-code-to-design execution is flawless, but I certainly believe that in this situation, if I hadn't done it this way, I wouldn't have done it all. However, doing this would be wasteful or dumb in almost every other situation that requires my design output.

People pay for Figma precisely because it's a middle ground. It was a middle ground before, and it will continue to be unless something fundamental changes.

AppleTV+ is a tiny business. It's nowhere near of generating enough revenue to cover a $20B hole in content production costs.

Yes, Apple generates LOTS of revenue overall, but that doesn't justify bleeding cash on a business line that hasn't produced material returns and has no significant positive trajectory in sight.

It's clear that Apple saw this as their Prime Video bet on their services strategy, but that hasn't worked out. Just look at AppleTV+ market share. It's hilariously miniscule.

I own a Model 3, and I honestly think it is the best car I have ever owned.

Despite that, I know people who have ruled out owning a Tesla because they believe the brand mirrors Elon Musk's public persona. They flat-out reject any Tesla product because the brand's visible face is someone they believe doesn't represent their values.

I'm unsure he understood the implications of becoming such a polarizing figure. It was totally unnecessary, yet that was his choice.

No op, but I don’t think test-driven development resounds with everyone who writes code.

I don’t want to write tests for everything. I just want to write the ones that matter.

I think productivity is lower in the winter, so I'm not sure about quality per se, but intuitively it makes sense that anything written in the winter months is less verbose.

GPTs is basically a ripoff of Poe by Quora. Quora’s CEO is Adam D’ Angelo. Adam D’ Angelo is one of OpenAI’s board members.

Make your own conclusions.

It was a minor incident, but it does remind me that centralized password managers seem to have an awful amount of concentrated risk.

Or is something like 1Password truly secure at its core, even if an attacker penetrates some layers of access?
