I would love a Kagi MCP to give my agents a better web search tool but they don't seem interested. I would pay for this.

I feel sorry for Kagi. I've paid for the last couple of years as I support a better web search.

But I've found my web searching is so small now with AI.

I checked and I did less than 300 Kagi searches last month so downgraded my plan.

I wish them the best but timing is a b**.

>the model chained together multiple attack vectors, including using stolen credentials

Wait, did the model do the stealing of the hugging face employees credentials?

Was this the first successful and unprompted phishing attack by a LLM?

Because AWS technical expertise are second to none. And for most companies their AWS spend is small % of overheads. Sure they could spend less but their marketing department is lighting money on fire so that would be premature optimization.

It's to get around bilateral arrangements where counties have mutually agreed to not require visas (IE visa-on-arrival).

This allows doing visa type checks but not technically violating the agreement as it's not called a visa.

Heck you can't even compile against many of the Mac APIs without a cert unlocked by a paid developer account.

And this folks is exactly the reason we need to remember that there are real costs to demanding transparency. There's a reason some things should have stayed redacted.

>Anthropic trains on your data

This is why companies are wanting the AWS hosted models because they trust AWS running of the same models more than the vendors themselves.

Your earlier article suggests you aren't using a CDN. Might be well worth looking into - not for any bot detection so much as just having a good old fashioned cache in front of you.

I wonder how much of this is traffic caused by peoples agents using web tools causing searches and fetches rather than general trawls of the internet.

It's so depressing how many comments here are just people reacting to words ... Just like they were a small LLM trained to associate "Elon" with words like "Nazi".

HN really needs a better way to surface comments based on value rather than just votes which have become increasingly tribal affiliation driven like Reddit.

Your claim is very misleading. Those states have other laws and allow aggregating theft occurances below those thresholds mentioned.

I've been using Grok Build over the last couple weeks. It's actually a very good CLI. The Grok Build 0.1 model isn't great but can also use Composer 2.5 which is excellent. Well worth trying.

This is very true. There's also a habit where people are reluctant to get their vehicles batteries low as well. Folks seem reluctant to get below 20%. I think it comes from learned behavior from smartphones.

I will happily arrive at a supercharger with 1%.

Composer 2.5 fast (via Grok) is honestly amazing. Its been implementing everything I've asked and getting it right first time. Been impressed with it's front end ability.

If this was the last model I could ever use I think I would be happy.

Yes tho I'd argue that Rocket Lab has the finances to easily weather a few more years of Neutron set back if that ends up happening (fingers crossed it doesn't happen). They aren't going bust anytime soon. So I don't see the downside as being zero.

You're surprised the co-founder of a privacy company is advocating that a countries membership should be ... private?

Indeed I see this as a positive. There is a common meme that the CIA might well run VPN companies. It would seem less likely for Mullvad.
