Wasn't that app basically streaming illegal pirated movies to begin with? I think we always knew it was sussy.

Not every pirate site is dangerous. And this is not even a backdoor just a standard auto update mechanism coded in a insecure way.

This badly throws me back to the early aughts partying at Beauty Bar in austin during peak hipster era!!

this website is AI slop

Leftist?

wrong trumpie

Nah. You're a Leftist.

Cool but i am immediately averse to AI UI slop interfaces.

unslopping it right now!

Ok when can i get this in codex?

I think by weird you mean "paid off by and in the pockets of AI billionaires"

i dont think the length always necessitates correctness or accuracy.

How about context for reviewers? Reviewers can judge correctness and accuracy from the code itself.

"created: 62 days ago" -- beyond that, what else makes you think it's a bot?

Everyone who disagrees with me is a bot.

I'm a gentleman and beyond that it's merely more likely (we are on HN and it's a newish user) that it is a bot, compared to their being a "meta shill" or a "monomaniac". You can skim their comments history for more information.

I agree, it's a botlike comment history.

Is it feasible for someone else to just start something almost identical by hosting a bunch of local models?

Not without lots of money or decent network peering. A 30GB model downloaded a lot of times is a lot of bandwidth.

There's more to than just the website, network bandwidth costs. Security, storage and infrastructure costs to name a few.

You can't just spin up a VPS and host a brain jar shop.

> There's more to than just the website, network bandwidth costs. Security...

Well they may have saved some money on one of those

"a wonderful idea" -- some hyperbole there.

The theory behind it certainly is unreasonably strong - https://www.astralcodexten.com/p/prediction-market-faq
