I cannot wait for these models to tear down traditional social hierarchies. We havent even begun to see the effects, fingers crossed

Hierarchies exist for a reason, take away the reason and the house of cards eventually collapses — but the house of cards is still a house. When it’s gone, we’re back to laws of the jungle.

Be careful what you wish for IOW.


I think certain types of people with power, i.e. access to capital, will lose relevance. world will become more meritcratic with ai as leverage to the individual

Your analysis of the whole rise of AI is that people with access to capital will lose relevance???

So the most capital intensive industry we've ever created will put less power in the hands of those with capital?

I'm sorry, I have no idea how you came to that conclusion...


It’s exactly the opposite I’m afraid. Capital already has more access to AI, both quantitatively (tokens for dollars) and qualitatively (biggest players got Mythos first). Expect this trend to continue.

Never heard of a stratified economy? Spoiler alert: none of us will be in the good part.

Tear down or reinforce?

capital/ability to leverage labor is going to lose power

I'm not so sure. It seems those with capital will accumulate it even faster.

Without some kind of income redistribution we are sailing into dark waters.


Let the ruling classes tremble at a Communistic revolution. The proletarians have nothing to lose but their chains. They have a world to win.

Workingmen of all countries unite!

Translation: hahahahahahahahahhahahaha but in your defense, I would give anything to be wrong.


I think critical parts of openai run on temporal


Temporal is an insane piece of software, always surprised people dont know about it. You could replace almost youre whole AWS stack with temporal


Sure, if you wanna run a 48 node cassandra cluster...


I find it strange that some think in terms of AWS architecture as the default. You could replace nearly the entire AWS stack with an Elixir (Erlang) monolith + Postgres.


anthropic is crushing it, this analysis is laughable. they are only constrained by GPUs


For big accounts, like railway, zero chance this was a handsoff fully automated ban


That assumes a competent org. If this were aws, I fully believe that. At gcp it's entirely plausible.


Really? This isn't the first time their automation took down a big customer (UniSuper in 2024) by accident. In that case the automation actually deleted the resources and GCP had to recover them.


I have worked inside major cloud providers, it doesnt work like this


Major infra provider -> has no backups/game plan if GCP goes down


Conspiracy theory:

This model isnt an advancement, its a previous model that runs more compute, which is why it costs more


Nah, it costs what you are willing to pay.


alot of them make 1M+


unfortunately, agents have decades of examples for how to use git, bearish on any tool that deviates from git


i think you misunderstood the concept, actually . it's not built to replace git, rather to sit on top of it.


they use claude code at deepmind
