I’ve been using R1 last few days and it’s noticeably worse than O1 at everything. It’s impressive, better than my latest Claude run (I stopped using Claude completely once O1 came out), but O1 is just flat out better.

Perhaps the gap is minor, but it feels large. I’m hesitant on getting O1 Pro, because using a worse model just seems impossible once you’ve experienced a better one

Coolest video by far, but this still places 3rd for me behind F9’s first landing, and the dual heavy landing. The future is bright!

I use Claude2 for medical queries and it far surpasses everything from any other LLM. Idk if it’s because it’s less neutered/censored but it isn’t even close

Upper middle class morons who’ve never faced hardships or seen true evil, just lived in their bubble want to feel important and hyper tribalism reinforced via social media anger bubbles makes it a waste of time to have any nuance or discussions. These mobs are ruining primarily low income and minority lives while blue check marks rile them up and media gaslights and fans the flames. Every single city which has had these riots has seen a dramatic upshot in violent crime and economy ravaged. None have recovered since Ferguson

A lot more crime happens, nobody reports it though. Just like in the Bay Area for car thefts. Very underreported because we are discouraged from making reports and after the 3rd break in, don’t even bother reporting. Everyone using Camden as a success on Social media is mistaken.

Poor people hurt the most, while rich and upper middle class likely never has to call the police

Target is minor, they blew up a police station. That’s terrorism level attack. Police should have had control of the situation, they allowed it to happen
