<p>I noticed Pluto is running on a simple CPU? If so, that's very nice for future RTS games. You just ship (or use a server-client arch) a bunch of models of various difficulty levels to let players practice. Could we even get models tuned to specific campaign levels? I wonder how costly the creation of Pluto was.</p>

<p>When I was younger, I used to think most people were dumb as well. But then you realize that you are just as dumb sometimes, and your most cheerished people can be as well. It's just human nature. Thinking everything and everyone is dumb can probably be characterized as being stupid, since you're not thinking about this very deeply.</p>

<p>It's unfortunate to think that some people may want to restrain themselves from sharing as much in the form of blog posts, but on the other hand, if you're still using AI in your day to day work from cloud providers, perhaps we'll still benefit  from that data in one way or another.<p>I mean, OpenAI couldn't guarantee that someone's data was not used for training, even though he had the "don't train on my data" setting turned on. I still don't understand what that means. And Anthropic probably does a similar thing, right? Did they share details how they derive from our data for training purposes?</p>

<p>> The stock market is breaking records. Corporate profits are booming. And yet plenty of us look at our paychecks and don’t quite feel the boom.<p>It is a shame that many people are so risk averse in general that they don't invest in the stock market, getting richer along with the rest. Investors aren't a special class of people, so I don't get why society should look down on the fact that the stock market is breaking records while your paychecks doesn't substantially increase. Your investments do!<p>> To be clear: I’m not saying that workers are poorer than they were 30 years ago. On average, they’re doing better. The size of our economic pie has grown, and so a smaller slice of a bigger pie still adds up to more pie.<p>> My point, instead, is to focus on the change in how we slice that pie. It matters because the split between workers and owners is one of the most important factors driving who gets what from our economy.<p>The author should expand on why he thinks it is actively bad that some people are getting more while everyone is better off anyway.</p>

<p>Perhaps you didn't read the article, but the implementation they describe is interesting and perhaps easier implemented in a new project from scratch.<p>It can't be any worse than current github, and since we've heard plenty of people express their dissatisfaction with github recently, this is actually a good direction for Cursor. A product people may want. We'll see.</p>

<p>A token is probably not a single char, and an image is probably decomposed into tokens as well (and god knows how many tokens an image is decomposed into) which probably map to similar float-hungry vectors. Your counterargument could use a bit more flesh.<p>And we're talking about images of texts, not images that represent complex imagery such as a very detailed scene or what have you.</p>
