Logan Kilpatrick announced [0] that training for Gemini 4 started towards the end of July. I'm surprised they could finalize a frontier level model within 2 months.

If an entire model training can be completed in 2 months there is really no moat for any company in this space now.

For the folks asking what is the point of Sonnet 5.5 when Opus 5.5 is better in every way, Sonnet is now the new default in the free tier and now people using Claude Web in the free tier get access to an almost close to the frontier model.

Thinkpad is great. At-least you know your job is safe for next 28 years.

Not on topic, but I have to admit.

That cow in the webpage is a nice touch.

I fully expected a modal window asking for my email to share updates and was surprised to receive a Joke instead.

Man, this study is going to be paraded as the proof that astrology is scientific and ancient people were more knowledgeable than us.

The only standout feature of this car is that it doesn't come in the usual white or black colors.

The title gave me the impression that a man started a western wear Empire at the age of 90.

I just visited bulma.io and couldn't help but notice the sketchy-looking Patreons/GitHub sponsors that Bulma has listed. Lots of casinos are supporting Bulma.

Are these genuine Bulma customers happy to support a product they use, or am I witnessing some new way of money laundering here? What is the Phone Tracking app doing there? I mean, Bulma needs all the support it can get, but what does a casino want from Bulma?

Is this limited to Win 11 Pro edition only or also available for Win 11 Home users ?

Everywhere they are mentioning coming soon to Windows 11, but considering they are projecting it as a developer focussed instead of for normal people i get the vibe it is not for Home edition.

vincengomes — Wed, 15 Mar 2023 03:45:48 +0000

What do you mean by downloaded Bing? Did you download an Android / iOS app?

Bing with GPT feature is only available via https://www.bing.com/new which you have to access through Edge Browser only. Dont ask me how Edge can only display the page when its just chromium underneath.

Then again there is a wait list. You have to enter your email and wait for access to be given.

As stated in the reddit post itself - "They had them on Google too, but we complained and they were removed."

The ad targeting is done on Yahoo and Bing searches

Is there a similar feature available in Newpipe now?
