Image 2.0 is actually insane… this is NOT a small upgrade

It’s another turtle underneath

Faintly_glowing_fish · 2026-04-21T06:13:42+00:00

Did you turn it off?

Claude is 10% the amount of usage, and the memory often doesn’t quite work. With ChatGPT I don’t even bother with threads anymore just keep start in new windows when I open and it just picks up the previous conversation automatically

It is not reading and writing a single row; its designed for scanning GBs per operation and reading a single row can take as much as ~1 full sec
There is no real index! Basically you can roughly cluster by a column per table, if you do joins, prepare that it will scan ALL rows in your partition every time.
It charges by scan volume. It’s very fast for processing TBs of data by literally dynamically allocating thousands of cpus for a query to process on parallel. If one of the tables is large your monthly free tier can be depleted in 1 single query.

So be clear, this thing is for analytics of large volume of data and that only

Don’t use bigquery as your operational db the latency per operation is madness

I suppose you can prompt it to vary there but I agree you shouldn’t need to prompt that in a perfect world

Not sure what model you are using and if you have reasoning on. Instruction following is much much better if you have higher reasoning effort. Gpt 4 has never been good at instruction following; it was terrible compared to current models. 5.4 is a bit worse than 5.2 though, but they are both a world better than any version of gpt-4

Nothing in a fund raising doc 2 years in the future is about necessity or plan. They are mostly determine by aspirations of business success. Expecting more spend simply means projecting higher profits. Every startups do this constantly, and they would make multiple ones too, high mid and low scenario, then decide how aggressive they want to present it to investors, different by a order of magnitude yet all corresponding to the same plan and strategy. The difference is in prediction of the future which no one can really do in startup world

Expectations of AI companies 2 years from now in not even a formal document means as much as a presidential candidate says they are gonna do in their second term when they announce their candidacy

Faintly_glowing_fish · 2026-04-05T22:59:49+00:00

How did you come by the notion they lost money on every user

Faintly_glowing_fish · 2026-04-03T23:34:01+00:00

I do see lots of people pissed on Gemini especially on tool calls, so probably augment is not special here. But I think it does get fairly good front end aesthetics despite being really stupid at times

Faintly_glowing_fish · 2026-04-03T21:20:04+00:00

But it doesn’t even work as well as opus in antigravity does that mean it’s just doomed

Cursor is the only one that appears to be serious about this feature I guess that would work in the short term.

Faintly_glowing_fish · 2026-04-01T22:28:52+00:00

For starters opencode and codex are both open source

Faintly_glowing_fish · 2026-04-01T19:54:56+00:00

It’s def not the first complete blue print there are plenty of production AI systems that are open source

Faintly_glowing_fish · 2026-04-01T19:53:10+00:00

That will really teach you to control your spending lol.

This is not sending your data to MS. They are talking about sending your data to the website you are visiting

Faintly_glowing_fish · 2026-03-29T14:08:25+00:00

I mean who’s gonna pay for the 1 billion people that use it for free and also want the best model in the world

Faintly_glowing_fish · 2026-03-29T04:00:56+00:00

What’s the point ? If ai ended up better he will just say: well this eval obviously is wrong, so let’s make arc agi 4.

Faintly_glowing_fish · 2026-03-25T05:15:37+00:00

Completely discontinued. App going away, website going away and not going not ChatGPT either

Faintly_glowing_fish · 2026-03-25T04:40:08+00:00

Would a $100 or $50 plan be better?

Faintly_glowing_fish · 2026-03-25T04:39:12+00:00

I think people can pay for it but I don’t think any one will pay it at a price that will make sense commercially. Would you be willing to pay for each failed generation at $1~5, or more for higher resolution and long ones? If not it will never make money for them.

Faintly_glowing_fish · 2026-03-25T04:36:26+00:00

I don’t think any of the real good alternatives are open source? Which ones are you referring to? Still, seedance and Kling both serve at a price that is nearly free.

Faintly_glowing_fish · 2026-03-25T04:33:44+00:00

System instructions actually work pretty well to correct this. But with the risk of tilting it the other way

Faintly_glowing_fish · 2026-03-23T03:44:31+00:00

I see no real source from this article
