But the chatbots/aggregators do, and they accept the reports as fact.

As is noted in the conclusion.

> Instead of releasing our results all at once, we're going to focus on one report at a time. This approach both prevents individual examples being overlooked and allows us to illustrate the negative impacts of vibe citing on research quality and public trust.

Not to take away from the actually great reporting here, but what they mean is, This approach allows them to milk it for as many clicks as possible.

why is that? you'd run yt-dlp from the same device you generated the cookies on (with a real browser). yt-dlp will have the bare cookie and also be able to refresh the cookie just like the browser.

There's a newish term for this: RLO, Recurring Liquidity Opportunity. These are tender offers at some recurring interval. Even some companies that have a shorter lifespan (say 7 years) offer this.

We are still in the short-half-life phase of GPUs. If a 2x faster GPU is on the horizon, why wouldn't OpenAI already be in line to buy? They aren't buying just 1, they are buying multiple datacenters' worth. So they wouldn't be a low priority, back of the line customer.

A short half-life means you are going to quickly dispose of what you have now, anyway. In fact most current datacenters can't even handle Vera Rubin, so I don't think there's short term risk here.

Going off on a tangent, I wish there were more awareness of how this concentrates power to Cloudflare.

Leaked to different parties.

Assuming you don't have ECH, you leak the question (in practical terms) to your ISP, and you leak your question to the DNS provider. With ODoH you plug the latter leak. Plugging that first leak is then still a problem (solved separately) but it's orthogonal to the second.

Even with ECH, where you plug the TLS leak, you have many more holes to plug. IP address might not be shared or might be shared across too few properties, and then traffic profile after the initial connect (to retrieve all the sub-resources) can identify destinations.

If relay and target are operated by the same provider, there is no collusion. Collusion occurs between 2+ parties. You have stipulated that they are the same party.

They have $4b in cash and Q1 FCF $84m, and 70% gross margin. They can become profitable anytime they want.

It doesn't mean that. A Co-Authored-By header isn't a legal signature or legal assertion of AI generated code.
