"effectively" is doing some heavy work in this sentence

It's so fascinating that people think that AGI will be winner-take-all. If anything the Chinese labs have shown us is that being first is almost a handicap as everyone can quickly learn from your released models and distil into open weights quite easily. If the competitive environment continues to exist how it is today, there doesn't seem like a trillion dollar market for anyone.

Except for the last bit, as an outsider to the US you literally just described the USA as it is today.

I'm in Canada and have a Tesla, if I was going to buy another car I'd be definitely looking at the Chinese versions for this exact reason. Anyone openly buying a new Tesla in Canada these days is saying they are a sociopath and/or a predator.

Disassembly and deep inspection of binaries seems like a good example, or rewriting an existing codebase in rust. You can do it yourself but if you don't have the background there's a ton you need to learn.

Or instead of hamstringing your entire way of life and making things immeasurably harder.. we could regulate them too.

The economics of game development is uniquely brutal. You can't just hit it out if the park once or twice and make a classic you can earn residuals from, people move on quickly and you don't earn on repeated playthroughs.

You can make a complete masterpiece, and build it cheaply - but there's no guarantee you can do it again.

That's why there was such a massive push towards live service games and MMOs, or microtransactions - it's quite literally the only way to make one creative effort valuable 1 year post release.

I don't envy folks who make games for a living and I also don't envy the founders and leadership, it just seems do brutally difficult to do well.

Do they share latency / concurrency figures (aka the deployment shape that gets them that token/s/cluster? Would be interesting if they're using deepEP/WideEP + PP and TP

If it's wrong just interrupt it and describe how it's wrong, or if you need to brainstorm more on a feature - it's not that hard

Angel banning is better, 100% agreed on giving it false data that the scraper builders can't easily detect. Give it seemingly correct and useful but totally wrong answers

Get your own compute, require and force openweights and right to compute. Make sure NV and AMD keep making prosumer hardware that can run Kimi k3

There was a book I read maybe 10-15 years ago about a world where governments Essentially dissolved and in place there was nothing but mega corp monopoloys - Jennifer Government was the name ( if you ever played the MUD Nation States yk)

I thought that was an interesting idea, but not something that could ever happen..

We've been doing those for a long time, longer than gambling has existed - I'm arguing that just because something is "in our nature" certainly doesn't give us an excuse to give up trying to strive for better.

There are some people who are prone to addictions and there are others (like myself) who aren't, it's genetic - why should we let people prey on addicts?

So is murder psychopathy and enslavement, you want to regulate that?

So I'm an SA, but have been working on systems architecture and have shipped large scale changes to very big platforms in prod and maintained them. With fable and astra I tried making a video game together, it didn't work.

The agents have incredible capabilities to develop any bit of code I need and to write good scripts to catch the most basic failure modes, they can even "play the game" by spinning up a VM and using ahk to trigger game state and take screenshots and gifs and use that to understand what it built.

Knowing what to build intuitively to maximise fun, or any other illogical human experience won't be RLable ever. Unless we're at brains in glass jar territory but I don't think we have to worry about that now.
