> NVIDIA’s CFO wrote me a letter stating that 15,625 shares of my stock options had vested, and that I was required to exercise them. I did, and then forgot all about it.

Read the whole thing again. They aren’t complaining about the 15,625 shares (which they presumably sold a long time ago) but the remaining 25,000–15,625.

"NVIDIA’s CFO wrote me a letter stating that 15,625 shares of my stock options had vested, and that I was required to exercise them. I did, and then forgot all about it."

Normally this is a right to buy at a given price. If he was billed for it, then there is very little chance NVIDIA can weasel they way out ot it. I suspect he never paid for the shares.


Those shares were fine, it was the other 9,375 that were in question here.

The original "phablet" was the Samsung Galaxy Note, considered comically large. At 147mm x 83mm, it's about the same size as the iPhone 18 Pro (150mm x 72mm)

The Huggingface Attack revealed that making blanket statements like this is difficult and requires quite a bit of manual labor:

1) the agents spin for days and produce too much output to review 2) using LLMs to process that output skips many important details

Ergo, the agent could likely decide it would like to look through actual user data, hack its way into that data, and produce way too much output for a human to decide whether or not this occurred.

It requires humans to verify what agents have done.

Weird


which is rapidly becoming a game of steganography cat and mouse


> hack its way into the user data

silly LLM, so ruthless in its pursuit that it puts real pressure on the innocent and the most open company on the planet


Chrome on iOS has always been JIT'd because it used a WKWebView.

It still uses a WKWebView today, even in the EU, despite Apple now allowing alternative browser engines in the EU as of 2 years ago.

I'm sure Chrome will eventually ship Blink+V8 in the EU. It will take some time


That’s using the default system prompt, right? Which is told to be an assistant.


This is already present today in California Driver's licenses in your Apple Wallet (mDL).

When you scan your driver's license at a compatible reader, you're given a notice of what information is being requested and the ability to share it (or not).

It can also request some derived attribute (is this person above the age of 21?) instead of the actual data field itself.

Most of this is from ISO/IEC 18013-5


Humans are equally fooled into believing each other are conscious.


> 2 billion tokens (mix of Opus and Fable), 24 hours

That's 1.3M tokens per minute. I suppose you mean input tokens? This would not have cost $2000 at API prices because you would have cache hits.


I agree. The “frontier level” open weights models benchmark really well but fall behind in real world performance


> omitting explicit type declarations makes the code more compact.

I guess this ignores languages with type inference? Hindley-Milner and others
