Just want to say that the UI is very pleasant.

So React was the last most human-starred project on GitHub before the dawn of agent-starred projects.

Yeah, the space moves so quickly that I would not want to couple the hardware with a model that might be outdated in a month. There are some interesting talking points but a general purpose programmable asic makes more sense to me.

This is such a good explanation. Thanks

What will happen if they go public?

I know right, it looks like they basically sent him to OAI and I'm sure Altman knows it!

One thing I will say is that this competition is good.

I tend to agree. I don't know whether it's Altman or someone else who makes these deals but OAI have made some brilliant moves and partnerships. Anthropic's tech is great but the OAI makes great business moves.

Are you saying that Anthropic might be the ones pushing this?

I want to set this up but I'm concerned about the privacy and security risks. On the one hand, person data is flowing through cloud models. Then there's the risks of prompt injection and such.

I thought about running it locally but it gets expensive.

Those that have taken the plunge, how did you make peace with these trade offs?

I agree with all of this. The brain needs exercise, just like the body.

I have been wondering where this trend started as well. It's geared towards vibe coders who don't need to see a lot of info.

This is one of the biggest issues with hosted models used via subscription. You have no idea what level of quality and accuracy you are consistently getting. That's why it's cheaper - because they can nerf it as they wish and most consumers would be none the wiser.

Is the PPI not too small with the 43"?

I have a 4k 27" which has nice PPI and I was considering this 43" as a replacement but the pixels looked quite prominent in youtube reviews.

It's a good take. I think both trajectories are occurring simultaneously.

OpenAI challenging Google search is a winner takes all situation, not to mention the vast amounts of user data.

On the other hand, us lesser mortals can leverage AI like a commoditized service to build applications with it.
