> Today's prices are the ceiling.

Why? I don't see any reason for that to be the case.

what you mean why? most companies with spare cash payed 10-50x what they actually need in tokens, just to see how it goes. it’s useful, it’s not that useful, so while the price per token can increase, everyone is getting smarter about spend. and even price has a limit, you can’t make ai more expensive than a human, because then everyone would just hire humans.

Valve takes a 30% cut and makes eye watering profits. I don't feel it's fair to characterize them as a victim for having to put in some effort to mention a basic standard of quality on their platform.

I really want to see how this plays out. The impossibility to identify AI work and thus keep users happy, vs profitability and steam actually trying to make things work.

Valve is a business but they're also a brand. It doesn't help their brand to be bombarded by slop created by a third party. The initial money is a trifle compared to how many refunds they'll have to dish out. It's like a brute force attack, AI is doing it to a lot of industries and fields including mathematics.

Yes, probably because that's not a feature that you really on daily. What of it?

If my iPad caught on fire and Apple stopped making it so I couldn’t replace it, it still wouldn’t be devastating.

It’s not about what features are used or not used or available or not available, it’s about having a little perspective.

Except for today. Today we are experiencing unusually high call volumes, so there are 8.3e9 people ahead of you in line.

If we didn't have any humans before your grandparents, and these were the only data points we have to extrapolate from, then, yes, this would be a very reasonable prediction.

Why? If SI is going to take over everything, wouldn't a well-informed human population just get in the way? /s

> LLM hypotheses have a 15--23% lower median ONS than published papers from the same topic.

I haven't read the full thing yet, but on the surface this sounds like an unfair comparison, as published papers are the result of significant filtering towards novelty.

What?! Minors absolutely are allowed to have money and to purchase things with it on their own.

I don't think this should be considered a child protection thing; I as an adult am not that much better equipped to protect myself against these psychologists, and would also want to have regulators protect me from advertising. So this is one of several reasons why I wish I lived in Switzerland.

I agree, but it's always easier to whip people into a fervor over protecting children and this is one of the better angles

The funny thing about this is that it's actually easier to set up and manage a startup without any employees (and worry about how to pay yourself down the line, if and when there's actually enough money in the bank) than it is to set up a self-employment operation.
