Do you think the barbarians are at the gates of OpenAI and Anthropic? If cheaper, open weights models can seriously take revenue away from those two labs for (frontier - 1) model use cases (which are the models most enterprises will choose) then OpenAI and Anthropic are left only with users using their latest and greatest model AND who will keep upgrading to the newer ones?
Is that impressive? If an LLM is just spewing out code which it has been trained on extensively then to me it's not that impressive at all. I want to see individual developers creating new software which previously took a whole team. Things not done previously. I am very pro AI btw, but the constant barrage of false hype is really tiresome.
One place where fiber cables cannot reach would be... way up in the air. Think about how many people fly each day and then remember how poor internet connectivity and speeds are at 40,000 ft.
This was such a great read! Thank you! Too bad Oven Inc never got more headcount. Otherwise the engineers could've had a day hackathon week while the managers and founder went to a retreat for a strategy offsite.
This is extremely misleading and not very useful. It makes little sense to use pricing per GB during decades when RAM was at most in MBs. In that case, why not talk about price per TB or PB? Then the line will look pretty much flat and horizontal.
I can definitely relate. My brain also wants to take the path of least effort now, even for simple things like adding two numbers which I could do very quickly in my head in my college days.
And with AI the path of least (initial) effort seems to be to just ask the model to solve it. It might get it wrong and then I'll prompt it again and again. But each individual prompt is fairly low effort on my part. Whereas coming up with the right solution myself might've taken less time but the initial effort is a lot more.
Last year I used to romanticize about building at least 1 thing each month completely by hand without any LLM coding help. The last such project I worked on was 6 months ago so sadly it's not going so well.
I like the concept. It would indeed be good to have a modern component library with AI design tropes as I think the old components libs haven't caught up. But in this particular case I must say, a lot of the components here just look plain ugly.
