That dismissal hardly buys credibility

Neither did the dismissal of AI in the article. I'd classify it as "not even wrong" in that the factual parts are true, but the conclusions are utter nonsense as ChatGPT can be extremely useful regardless of the claims being true.

We all know they Apple lack the capability, not a choice.

First time I read something like that about Perl. Is this personal experience during the Perl peak period or extrapolation from phrases

The idea that a company DNA somehow lives over 100 years and maintains the same track record is far fetched.

that the OpenAI tech bro are investing in AI using a grown up ROI is similarly far fetched, they are burning money to pull ahead of the reset and assume the world will be in the palm of the winner and there is only 1 winner. Will the investment pay off if there are 3 neck and neck companies ?


This looks like a ticketing cli


That's exactly what this is, but it's one that's designed with coding agents in mind as its principle users.


On that topic and without personal attacks cause he must be better at this than most people and most people here.

How did he go from politics social activism to AI founder


Better at what though? Maybe he's just great at getting hired and promoted, without the benefit of actual skills or deep understanding of anything, and now finds himself in ignorance of all that he surveys. I've known many people like that.


I kind of feel that using examples where idempotent keys are implemented in a SAAS in a engine is side stepping the issue not because NIH (it’s the right thing to do) but it glosses over the complexity of implementing idempotency for the part you need to yourself , and I’ll bet most people have a kinda promise to be idempotent unless edge case


Depends on How much does it cost to hire it


Not vested in the argument but it stood out to me that, Your argument is similar to tv courts if it’s plausible the report is true. Very far from the report is credible


You're right, lacking information I am coming across as instead willing to give Entropic the benefit of the doubt here.

But I'm also often a Devil's Advocate and the tide in this thread (well, the very headline as well) seemed to be condemning Anthropic.


Honest companies with good reputations tend to get the benefit of the doubt.

E.g., how much do you expect Costco or Valve to intentionally harm their customers compared to Comcast or Electronic Arts? That’s just the old school concept of reputation at work. Companies can “buy” benefit of the doubt by being genuine and avoiding blowing smoke up people’s ass.

Anthropic has been spitting bullshit about how the AGI they’re working on is so smart it’s dangerous. So those chumps having no answers when they get hacked smells like something.

Are they telling us their magical human AGI brain and their security professionals being paid top industry rates can’t trace what happened in a breach?


Somehow I doubt he has is emails printed out and response by dictations ;)
