The converse is not true.

I have updated OpenAI's chart[1] from yesterday to include one more datapoint: DeepSeek V4 Flash 0731. It's on the frontier.

That’s cool. I knew o1 hid it since launch, so I assumed Anthropic would also have never shown it.

The agent loop doesn’t run in the browser.

That's a summarized and filtered view of the actual reasoning.

OpenAI and Anthropic guard the real reasoning closely. Users have never been able to see it and the API returns an encrypted blob instead of legible reasoning.

Clearly you do, given you expressly maintain that China includes Taiwan (an uncommon opinion)?

The key claim here is, paraphrased: “LLM coding assistants” cannot “help someone write code better or faster.”

This is not true.

This is expected behavior; the Codex app has been rebranded as the ChatGPT app.

This catches Claude resellers. Meaning companies who proxy Claude traffic for users in, say, China.

This has been a niche where Mistral has actually been successful. Btw, Hindi and Japanese are bucketed in "Rare Languages," which is odd.

PG acknowledged that growth is limited by market size. Markets to support "avogadrillionaire" level wealth may not current exist.

However, there obviously exist markets to support billionaire level wealth, as evidenced by the at least 30 billionaires produced by YC, and the many others.

It’s near the frontier meaning it’s the best intelligence for the price.

It’s not even close to frontier meaning it’s the best intelligence.

New comment by pmxi in "Please Use AI"

pmxi — Fri, 29 May 2026 17:37:31 +0000

The first part, describes a decision to ask AI over calling a good friend and domain expert. Typically the domain expert is not an option. (looking at my last 10 Claude chats, I knew a domain expert for one of them).

The second part assumes AI writing can substitute mastery of writing, and simultaneously, not be good enough.

We have, for a several thousand years, continued to develop labor and cost saving technology. We have been OK thus far.

Yeah. They are aware: "Users will find Opus 4.8 to be a modest but tangible improvement on its predecessor."

In the "What's next?" section, "There’s still more to be done: we’re working on developing and releasing models that provide many of the same capabilities as Opus at a lower cost."

I wanted to ask someone about the firepass subscription. It implies unlimited usage - sounds too good to be true. Is it? Can you leave your agent running all day?
