So it's not something for me, but like everything Microsoft makes, it's for our BOFH's who will torment us with yet another corporate compliance machine.

Yeah, better pay higher margin API prices. That'll show them!

Uhuh, sure. We are holding the AGI wrong.

Are you implying that not voting will somehow lead to a better solution?

Voting increasingly less corrupt options(as good as we can judge) is the way. What else can you do?

The "everyone does it" defense is how the worst of the worst get away with it.

Previously, you got a magical free money bonus on the $200 sub.

Plus costs 20.

Pro 5x costs 100, and gives 5x Plus usage.

Pro 20x was 200, and previously gave 20x Plus usage, for a 10x difference. Magical free money, wee.

Of course it had to end.

It makes it easy to imagine how people made up Gods to explain the magnificence.

Truth be told, I never used the feedback function because of the clauses that reference the functionality in connection with training/service improvement.

If contracts didn't matter, sure I guess.

There is a difference.

Using feedback on your sessions makes that session, and presumably all attached data, fair game for training.

Reddit cross contamination. Over there it's a rite of passage to accept it as a fact.

Like Netflix, in the past we got the full release on day 1.

For a non-ai article, this sure has a lot of bullet point lists combined with check marks.

I don't like the feeling being judged and tested by the author (missing number 5 point in the list).

That's a lot of deps to read HN.

Maybe your clanker can do it without.

The tech bro culture of believing their thinking is kind of special is embarrassing.

There is nothing stopping any plain old algorithm being used for the same. The difference is that people decide, for whatever reason, to use the tool or to not use it.

These fuckers decided to look away, that's it.

The frontier labs can monitor the behavior of agents for millions of customers (did you try hacking with frontier labs? Good luck), but they can't secure internal use?

Give me a break. What a bunch of amateurs.
