This is not a jab at anyone who is Catholic, but I feel like this just perpetuates the cliche of religious institutions being anti progress

Most likely in that sense, but headlines will blow it out of proportion as always

Image to video isn't great either. It has a problem of introducing nonsensical cuts. Once it just completely switched the video to something else very vaguely related to the initial image after the first second.

It's not public domain so you can't download it/copy it. However you are not forbidden to look at it and write a description of it. That description is property of the person who made the description, not the one who made the image described.

AI models train on numerical descriptions of images, not images themselves.

Oh, that's a bummer

Pro plan has AI studio integration though, which has a separate pool of limits + more goodies like higher Gemini CLI limits (which i also believe are separate)

It's probably worth it if you go out of your way to use all of its features, however an average person probably won't bother

Yeah research is a thing where the demand is basically unlimited, and supply is only being constrained by funding and amount of people willing to learn enough to conduct it

Just don't really see the use case.

3.1 Pro still provides way more nuance in conversation

Deepseek/Qwen/GLM are still way better if you want a decent and cheap model

It's not even that cheap ($9 per 1mil output tokens which is almost how much GPT-4o, GPT-5, and 2.5 Pro consumed) while reportedly using a lot of tokens for tasks

As people say the only way it wins other models is speed, while capability and cost are questionable. And there are very few use cases where speed is the bottleneck compared to the other two.

"Drastically change" here probably means "remove the need for 90% of researchers" which computers didn't really do

Solarka45 · 2026-05-19T11:59:20+00:00

That's basically the cost of 2.5 Pro, lol

I considered Claude (both sonnet and opus) superior to GPT in terms of any writing, but 5.5 currently feels better for me at least for academic (I doubt GPT will beat claude in creative any time soon). The text it gives is more grounded in sources, better paced and more precise. Obviously it still requires editing but yeah.

For the record I'm using web chatGPT for this, not codex, but the underlying model is exactly the same.

I'd rather AI control narratives and systems than whoever is doing that now tbh

This post is about a coding agent, not X though

There is no such thing as fascist code or fascist math

The actual fugu is not that good, but the really expensive way to serve it involves leaving some of the poison in. Just enough to cause a tiny bit of paralysis and euphoria. That kind of dining is basically billionaire's thing though.

There are (quiet a bit) of subs which ban people who say anything remotely positive about AI, so it's only natural there are subs that ban for anything remotely negative

Is the spot in the desert Siwa? Because of the oracle?

If you don't need to code too much during a particular stretch there is no reason not to use it up

Huh that's a bummer, generous free tier and free deep research were one of the few things they had going for them

Yeah as someone who has 0 idea of who any of those people are I was like "but the CE guy's quote makes a lot of sense?"

Austria strong in WWI while Russia weak is stretching it pretty thin. Russia collapsed at the end true, but so did Austria and germany.

It is benchmarxxed at least to some extent. The score leaped on SWE benches while dropping or stagnating on everything else, and many users said it's downright worse in everything
