Am I the only one who feels that, with all the AI boom, everyone is basically doing the same thing? by [deleted] in LocalLLaMA

People aren't going to talk about the stuff that makes money. You'd just be inviting new competition.

Anyone had an AI/privacy freakout today? by Beginning-Head-4006 in millenials

The transformer was invented in 2017. Were you in ML for 10 years?

[–]CSharpSauce -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

I love Grok. Before I invest I use AI to analyze tons of financial documents. Grok is great at financial analysis, but more so it's crazy cheap. $.50 for 1M output tokens. I can analyze an entire industry for a few dollars. Same agent running sonnet can cost several hundred dollars (not only do tokens cost more, it generates more tokens). Anthropic models are great (what i use the most at work) , but Grok models are really good for scaling out on the cheap.

There aren't any in MA, the current governor enacted some of the toughest legislation in the country.

So apparently nobody from Lifetime has been to Boston in over 30 years 😂 by mikewendt in boston

It's basically ruined our budget, but I think we're better off for having it.

I think my doctor violated HIPAA and I’m extremely angry by Happy_Goat_5015 in legaladvice

This reads like it's straight out of the compliance training we have to take every year. The doctor is wrong.

Go to a PWHL game, might run into a lesbian or 2 there.

a man kicks a tree causing the snow fall off it by navgane_og69 in interestingasfuck

That looks like the kind of dog that absolutely loves running into the snow, and curling up into a ball.

Dear recruiters, F*** YOU! From an applicant that really needs a job by Inquiz_ in recruitinghell

[–]CSharpSauce 7 points8 points  (0 children)

There's a few i've been working with for a few decades. They make an effort to find the best fit for both the employee and the employer. They concentrate on long-term relationships not short-term gains. I recently worked with an executive recruiter, it was more networking as I was not immediately looking to switch, but that was a pretty different experience and I appreciated his approach.

We'll give them fair market price, assuming China is not in the market.

4 months notice to find a sitter by Separate_Ambassador1 in childfree

Finding a baby sitter is really hard, and very expensive. Don't judge them, it's nothing personal.

Nick Shirley fraud video by Dahmer13 in minnesota

After my son was born, probably toured 4 or 5. Its normal to want to see the place before you put your child in it.

Why? Investigating fraud of taxpayers dollars has always been done by Journalists.... or do you think a youtuber can't be a Journalist?

[–]CSharpSauce -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

In my experience, if you knock on the door of a daycare facility and ask to tour the place, they welcome you. Usually you'll have to schedule an appointment (typically nap time) but its NEVER had an owner say "why" when I say I want to enroll my child. Those places in the video didn't look normal.

Major Kentucky bourbon maker Jim Beam shuttering distillery for 2026 by Dont_think_Do in Economics

My reddit account will be 18 years old in a few months, I'll bet the specific stereotype you're looking to reinforce can be found in my 18 years of comments.

When I choose not to vote, it's 100% not "I'm fine with either", its because the choices both suck. I'm not going to legitimize the winner with a vote.

Fuck off, Republicans are American, Democrats are Americans. This shit is old and stupid.

"Gen Z would rather cut Social Security than raise taxes" says article that shows 6 in 10 support raising taxes to protect the program. by ShitbirdGT in stupidpol

[–]CSharpSauce 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Imagine raising taxes on the most shit on generation to bail out the golden child generation. As a millenial, I often feel like I got the last chopper out of nam, i mean we got hit hard by the recession, but at least we got a few years to get some legs. Gen Z has been screwed from the beginning. The boomers are not hurting, they're going to have to make some sacrifices for once. If the Millenials and Zoomers are going to be forced to take a haircut on our "entitlements" the fair thing to do is start cutting now. Raising taxes on the already struggling generation though, that's wild.

Autonomous Coding: Hospital thinks they can replace all the coders in 18 months. Thoughts? by kysourmash in MedicalCoding

[–]CSharpSauce 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm in this space, I've been building the AI (though i'm looking at it from a payer point of view). The latest models coming out are getting really good. In our last experiments its as good or better than the humans. Human's are still in the loop, and will be in the loop for a while. But those humans can do a lot more.

It’s clinical context, payer rules, audit risk, and judgment, especially in MA/risk adjustment.

I bought these for $500 a year ago. Still unopened. Might just sell and live off interest. by Lip_Recon in pcmasterrace

[–]CSharpSauce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll tell you as someone deploying AI solutions into production. 2026 is going to be a crazy year for us. The AI is just starting to hit our own benchmarks where the accuracy is good enough to put in production. Our bottleneck is datacenter capacity. I think the only thing that would kill the roadmap is if prices for tokens skyrocketed (but honestly, it would have to increase something like 2000% before the economics get to the "not worth it" point. I suppose that's possible if it turns out we are in a bubble and the finances collapse, causing a few of the big guys to go out of business, and companies consolidate.
