Again I’m not saying you should trust an American company necessarily more than a Chinese one, but as an American, I probably can.

Haven't they already proven to be extremely useful? In some areas they are definitely here to stay, coding/software and search (retrieve and summarize information). There's a bunch of places where they are surely shoehorned in, overhyped, and don't belong, but there's also equally many places where they might still be transformative but aren't used yet.

But overall I think the technology is well proven.

The problem is that while one these gpus is a huge improvement over a laptop or a single 3090, you very quickly wish you had more. I would buy a second one, but I did the math and realized that with the current crop of models, 2 Blackwells doesn't buy me any new capability that I didn't have with one. So I would need a 3rd one. And when I buy a 3rd one I will feel like I want to running a higher quant, so then I will want a 4th.

I already saw a article recently about how to set up a business domain which can reliably show up in a search result and dump overly positive reviews into anyone's context.

I would like to tell it to turn off certain light in a certain room, but unless I get the exact string name of those light correct when I speak, Siri doesn't know what I'm talking about. And it can't do multiple things in a command. I can't say "turn off all the lights in XYZ room" or turn of "this light and this light".

Meanwhile, I can vaguely tell a computer behind my tv to do very complicated things (build me an service that ...) and it can execute on it fairly well. But in apple's "product vision" which I am apparently too dumb to decide for myself what I want, I can't ask for two lights to be turned off at the same time.

This frontend design skill that claude uses basically just begs it to pick nice fonts and make the design coherent. No specifics about which fonts or how to make nice color schemes and layout.
