The data and the anecdata on Jev's adoption are shocking. Everyone is adopting it. I think it's a great product, but this is also downstream of the "AI is too expensive/slow" zeitgeist. People are eager to optimize and put AI in even more places!

something very interesting is happening i’ve been monitoring user sentiment on new model releases and i have now seen 3 latest frontier models in a row where a significant amount of users chose to roll back to use a previous version 1. opus 5 - very negative feedback in general can’t communicate. eager to jump into conclusions without sufficient context. keeps making mistakes it even earned its own website now https://t.co/51pCa0F6KS (it’s really funny) many people (myself included) abandoned opus 5 and went back to 4.6 and 4.8 2. gpt 6 astra seeing more and more people reporting going back t… Related

NEW podcast episode is up! "Why Kids Can Learn 10x Faster Than We Think — @NielsHoven of @MentavaInc (Tim Coaching Session)" This episode is a bit different. It’s a live, unscripted working session with a founder, and I’ve only done one other earlier this year. Niels Hoven (@NielsHoven) is the founder and CEO of Mentava, a company building software to support fast learners. Eager kids are dramatically underserved by today’s education system, and Niels created Mentava to allow students to achieve their potential. Prior to Mentava, Niels worked at Cloudflare, ClassDojo, and Pocket Gems, where h… Related

Too many agents are like eager new grads who bug you 10x a day I want more agents to be the quiet guy/girl in the corner, and when they finally speak up, you listen Quoting @bentlegen Proactive agents is a nice idea But then you end up having 10 agent products clamoring for your attention constantly I’m starting to think it was better when we just fired them up when we needed them Related

We are so encouraged by the response to Expert Intelligence from authors and publishers. Books (and other published knowledge) should thrive in the age of language models. And we're eager to bring EI to other Google surfaces soon beyond @Gemini_Notebook. So much more to do! Quoting @PublishersWkly Google's new AI tool, Expert Intelligence, lets readers query e-books bought from the Google Play store, along with other features, and includes more than 100,000 titles, mostly trade nonfiction, from such publishers as Penguin Random House, Macmillan, and Bloomsbury, who noted the tool’s respect f… Google Related

I do not think this book could really be enjoyed without the previous book, but with it, it's lots of skillfully-written fun, and leaves me eager for more.

Writer and researcher on China, technology and industry; author of Breakneck, research fellow at Stanford, known for a widely read annual letter.
I outline a bear case for China to @DouthatNYT: substantial numbers of the rich, the creative, and the desperate are eager to emigrate — the latter trekking across the southwestern US border. Whose great rejuvenation is this? And a scenario in which China wins: it doesn’t have to recreate American financial, cultural, and diplomatic power. If it succeeds narrowly at being a technological superpower, which it’s on track to do, it could militarily subdue the US while worsening America’s economic and political dysfunctions nytimes.com

What is a korrent?
A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one
sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at
korrents.com .
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said.
The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in
korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who
else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public
statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.

About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they
do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in
this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the
serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to
quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter,
especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked
article and a belief on korrents.com
are left in their original language.
