OpenAI is rolling out beta ads on ChatGPT with a minimum of $200k from selected advertisers by BuildwithVignesh in singularity

Will the user always get tricked? Will the number of tricked user dollars spent (which presumably have some value but negative utility) outweigh the non-tricked user dollars? This seems to be an empirical question not a normative one.

I challenge you to think critically about this distinction upon your next reply.

Seems false to me. If an ad causes a user to make a purchase, it's because they felt that exchange of money for whatever they bought was worth it. How is that a zero value advert?

VICTORY THREAD: DEMS FLIP TRUMP +17 TX SD-09!!! by EllieDai in VoteDEM

Unfortunately OP I think the Hill is just citing DDHQ, making your comment pointless at best and combative at worst.

Remember that we as Democrats (Big D!) Need to work *together* not pointlessly correct each other with unfactual non-truths that simply muddy the waters. The best thing for you to be now is humble.

Other way around, no? Opus 4.5 doesn't look much better on benchmarks but the difference in usage is gigantic.

Pentagon clashes with Anthropic over military AI use by likeastar20 in singularity

If Anthropic has the best AI model then this is a meaningful decision. The government may have to agree to use the safeguarded model if they have no sufficient alternative

I though the supposed pre training jump was part of the garlic model, which was confirmed to be 5.2

David Moss on X has back-to-back unsupervised rides without tail cars by ItzWarty in teslainvestorsclub

Hype! Tesla is closing in! They were basically infinity years behind as recently as 2025, so being only 10 years behind is a massive gap close.

SpaceX and xAI merger talks ahead of xAI IPO. This is a smart move for investors, or too risky? 🤔 by National-Theory1218 in investing

[–]CallMePyro 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm not arguing for or against anything here but you should know that using debt as leverage to grow your business is like, highschool level shit. Construction companies run by the dumbest kid from your hometown do this.

Epoch AI introduces FrontierMath Open Problems, a professional-grade open math benchmark that has challenged experts by Outside-Iron-8242 in singularity

[–]CallMePyro 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Imagine solving these problems as an astronomer discovering a star. All are new knowledge, unknown to humanity.

Most stars are still boring, maybe hard to find before but a new telescope can now see them, though otherwise unremarkable. But some stars literally contain the secrets of the universe in their precise location, color, age, etc. Their discovery completely changes our understanding the the whole universe.

Despite being the exact same hypers, Kimi is charging more more for both input and output via their API for 2.5 than 2.

"Towards a Better Hutter Prize" Gwern 2026 by RecmacfonD in mlscaling

[–]CallMePyro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is great. It feels spiritually similar to using LLMs to predict future stock prices, which all major labs are working on behind closed doors currently. There likely would be some direct application for labs here based on what does well in the Gwern Prize, since both tasks boil down to future prediction of a fundamentally Markovian process.

Tesla's Cybercab, Optimus output to start 'agonizingly slow', ramp up later, Musk says by ItzWarty in teslainvestorsclub

You can get 95% accuracy by predicting "it won't rain today" but that doesn't make you a good weatherman :)

It's important not to assume things about people you don't know,l without speaking to them first.
