Yeah, I too cancelled my Max subscription. Not for this reason alone, but it sure didn't help that it went from being an helpful assistant to this weird co-worker.

I wish I could share your optimism.

Well, in light of how mismanaged this planet is, maybe it would be for the better.

Just use Kagi. Not only is it way better, but you are also not the product.

Growth hormones. It’s better now than some years ago, but still. Some claim the do not use them at all.

And they use a lot of antibiotics.

And there is some accumulation of dioxins and PCBs in the fat due to the feed, but this has also been approved somewhat.

I live in Norway and me and my family do not eat farmed fish - for multiple reasons; political, ecological, animal cruelty etc.

A hamburger probably has a better nutritional value than farmed salmon. Children and pregnant women should also limit the intake because it can disrupt development. And the color is fake, if they do not add coloring to the feed, farmed salmon would be gray.

I could go on the whole day about this stuff. The whole thing is just sad.

This is like sending a letter to Satan asking him to please stop being a nuisance.

I love GOG. It’s just too bad most game publishers don’t.

You can’t champion on the greed that is copyright and then be sour when Anthropic tries to work within this framework.

There is a word for that kind of behavior.

Just another old fart who doesn’t like that the world is changing.

I bet the same argument was used when the calculator was invented.

New comment by bronlund in "The classifiers Anthropic puts in front of Fable are too zealous"

bronlund — Wed, 08 Jul 2026 21:48:50 +0000

I totally agree. I have been a Claude fanboy for a while now, but Fable woke me up, and I am currently looking for alternatives.

I don't care how capable it is, if it's going to treat me like it's babysitting a terrorist, it can eff off.

Plain and simple.

Relax, AI is going to kill education and eliminate jobs, and changing lives, but you have to be patient. Let it cook.

Its too little, too late. LLMs are going to go the same way as 3D printers, action cameras, vacuums, TVs, drones, cars, phones, whatever.

The west just don't know how to compete in the long run. The greed is eating itself up.

What you should have done was claiming you already know what the best RSS news feed is. Then people will come in here and correct you :D
