I kind of wonder if this whole movement of rationalists believing they can “just” make things better than people already in the field comes from the contracting sense that being rich and having an expensive educational background may in fact be less important than having background experience and situational context in the future, two things they loath?

It’s… it’s almost as if the law about shareholder value as intended as a metaphor for accountability, not a literal, reductive claim that results in ouroboros. Almost like, our economic system is supposed to be a means, not an end in of itself?

No. Definitely can’t be that.

Procreate is an example of what good AI deployment looks like. They do use technology, and even machine learning, but they do it in obviously constructive scopes between where the artist’s attention is focused. And they’re committed to that because… there’s no value for them to just be a thin wrapper on an already completely commoditized technology on its way to the courtroom to be challenged by landmark rulings with no more room ceiling to grow into whooooooops.

Stranger things have happened. But in either case, we should commit to supporting every effort. If one punch doesn’t work take another. Death by a million cuts.

Maybe I’m old fashioned but,

I still start by asking someone who knows about the thing what books they might recommend. And I know mushrooms are especially problematic, so I go look for um, active communities of people who aren’t dead from eating the wrong mushrooms.

Is it possible, that we’re looking too far away from accountable sources when we route our knowledge searches through noisy corporate slops?

Like, it seems to me that there’s a notable asymmetry here!

I think that’s a great framing here.

Q*

My understanding is that it was renamed or rebranded to Strawberry which itself nebulous marketting maybe it’s the new larger model or maybe it’s GPT-5 or maybe…

it’s all smoke and mirrors. I think my point is, they made some cost optimizations and mostly moved around things that existed, and they’ll keep doing that.
