GPT-5 launch looks like a fiasco:
"For a year or two I have been speculating that OpenAI might take a serious hit if GPT-5 was disappointing. We may finally soon find out.
Certainly, in a rational world, their valuation would take a hit.
They no longer have anything like a clear technical lead.
GPT-5 is unlikely to be ahead of the pack for more than a couple months. (And Grok 4 Heavy is already better on the ARC-AGI-2 measure)
Many of their best people have left.
Many of those people left to start competitors.
Elon is moving faster. Anthropic and Google and many others are nipping at their heels. Their relationship with Microsoft has frayed.
OpenAI still isn’t making profit.
Instead they are being forced to cut prices.
People are wising up that LLMs are not in fact AGI-adjacent.
People are becoming more skeptical about the company and its CEO.
OpenAI has the name brand recognition, and good UX. Will that be enough to sustain a $300-500B valuation? Hard to know."
- gpt5 is great. 4o was the disaster, it just did well with plebs because it was sycophantic. gemini is similarly gash and opus is too expensive.kingsteven
- I think it depends a lot what you're using it for. Right out of the gate I'm seeing slightly worse performance with GPT-5 vs o3 (never used 4o much).yuekit
- I'm getting way less hallucinations and a shitload more speed with 5YakuZoku
- Which GPT-5 is great? And for what?grafician
- gpt-5 is not only a massive improvement for coding and automation over 4o, it dosen't have the sycophantic tone, constant bullshitting and hallucinations -kingsteven
- the reason why i have been using claude. and stayed away from open ai and google. yet to see if the long context support in claude will put it back on top.kingsteven
- I'm not dropping entire codebases and eating up tokens. I paid nearly $200 to Anthropic last month without using Opus once.kingsteven
- Claude code does have advantages but sonnet does really fuck up sometimes. GPT5 may still have the edge for general coding tasks and price.kingsteven
- What are you coding?grafician
- i work in ed tech and have a side job building twitch extensions and tools for streamers - so its a good variety. this month a game engine for developing twitchkingsteven
- chat games (like a very niche browser based flash) and an app for delivering and evaluating situational judgement tests.kingsteven
- Oh you have your plate full!
Good luck!grafician - i've been a developer for 20+ years so it's not much of a change, i spend as much time manually coding as i do engaging with AI agents. the more i dig in to itkingsteven
- the more i find people creating products 'using AI' know exactly what they want and are are just bridging a small skills gap.kingsteven
- i think the sycophantic nature of the 'assistant' actually fools a lot of people in to believing that they couldn't have done it themselveskingsteven
- meanwhile plenty of 'developers' in the design industry have never had an original thought, built a career on implementing libraries and copy/pasting code.kingsteven
- It removes the learning curve for new coders, which then reinforces the lack of true coding skills in the industry. How long until old school coders are gone?monospaced
- just grifters for now. i've had two people contact me this week asking how to get their AI generated apps to work! the jobs im not seeing any more are the oneskingsteven
- that are the ones so small it's awkward to charge for - fixing up a bit of css for someone who got 99% of the way themselves.kingsteven

Is the AI Job Apocalypse Here?
According to this study no...people with the most exposure to AI are actually better paid and less likely to be unemployed than people who aren't. The impact on jobs is underwhelming so far.

"Claude Sonnet 4 now supports up to 1 million tokens of context on the Anthropic API—a 5x increase that lets you process entire codebases with over 75,000 lines of code or dozens of research papers in a single request.
Long context support for Sonnet 4 is now in public beta on the Anthropic API and in Amazon Bedrock, with Google Cloud’s Vertex AI coming soon."
- This is more useful than GPT-5 launch :)grafician
- Got about 30 minutes of work done today on the Claude paid plan before I reached my daily limit with the message "Subscribe to Max". FFS.colab
- But don't models break anyway after 300k-500k tokens?
1M context windows is pure marketing and can't be actually usedgrafician

- Cool. But in the models section (list) when you search it it's nowhere to be found. Also when prompting it never appeared in the results. Did they remove it?NBQ00
- will these a.i videos for the undereducated ever stop... i guess not...neverscared

- the reddit is full of these. a few where it's nuked their entire github :D vibe coders without safeguards. i had both sonnet and gemini delete files from mykingsteven
- system which cursor couldn't recover, but i had everything backed up. one thing i really like about gpt5 is it makes far fewer assumptions like this.kingsteven
- If an AI coders can't comprehend the importance of backing something up before deleting it then how can you ever trust it, basic common senseprophetone
- That's like the first rule of coding, always have a backup or mod a copy ONLY because stuff ALWAYS goes wrong... in this case it's 'sorry bro my badski'prophetone
- Straight nuking a Github repo is madness lolprophetone
- 'Vibe Coding' - as much as that term gags me with a spoon - is fine and freeing for experienced devs to freestyle stuff with basic safeguardsprophetone
- But I've seen so many tiktoks of 'vibe coders' who are inexperienced noobs looking all cool, trusting every output as gospel... but tragedy and tears await lolprophetone
- this is just the other side of that. + it's a meme to hate on cursor since they changed their pricing. i don't believe any of it.kingsteven
- i would love to see the steps leading up to this where he gave permission to run the command :)kingsteven

if You're using Claude Code...you can use on the desktop now

"JUST IN: The Financial Times reports that US tech stocks 'sold off' over a 'wave of concerns that intense enthusiasm surrounding artificial intelligence could be overdone'"
= market flooded with wannabe AI startups aka AI wrappers eating VC money with no returns in sight
"BREAKING: Meta is looking at downsizing its AI division, according to New York Times report."
= after spending Billions on new talent and nothing to show for AND previously sinking Billions in that Metaverse crap = 2 out of 3 failures in recent years
So, yeah, it's a bubbble and no AGI in sight...
- The bottle neck appears to be compute so if Nvidia or quantum computing have a break through we may see another jump. I think the money is still there.slappy
- finally!Salarrue

This shit will be a problem for real relationships. And no, this is not a real relationship. But I guess this is inevitable. Real humans are complicated, and these are simply flattery algorithms. You don't want human complications? Well, you can date your laptop. Good luck with that. I sprained my eyes rolling them.
- Mom and dad, this is my girlfriend Nova *boots up laptop*jagara
- What do you mean by "not a real relationship"? All relationships are real.palimpsest
- This person has human needs for a relationship with a woman, instead he chooses this sad surrogate. Not real.jagara
- Are you one of those "what does IRL mean, it's all real life" people?jagara
- Nature doesn't exist.
Yes, that's me!palimpsest - "Okay. Have a nice night, mate" *smiles, backs away*jagara
- They look fakesab

- Ultimately you can say it's about the relationship with the other people in that subreddit. Would they really be doing this if they couldn't post about it?yuekit
- @yuekit Interesting thought, but I think they would. These AI "partners" (seemingly) satisfy a need for genuine human connection...jagara
- ...in the same way as porn satisfies a need for sex. Do AI "partners" serve a purpose? Yes. Do they answer your deep human longing for connection?jagara

- I'd not be surprised if some model's actively asking reddit questions for which it can't presently furnish an answer.Nairn
- When ai becomes tasked with hanging out on Reddit and giving advice, then the whole platform kinda fails.monospaced
- It's just hype, imagine building AGI from reddit comments - delusional!grafician

Revisiting this talk from a couple years ago...I think Chomsky was right? LLMs are useful tools but they don't tell us anything meaningful about language or intelligence itself.
