@billykyle Awesome name for the car

Living at an apartment that offers free charging might be one of the biggest cheat codes. A full charge at $0.20 per kWh is about $20 saved each day, totaling upwards of $500 per month - assuming a full charge.

@wholemars They’re the biggest Elon haters. They can’t get it out of their blood.

I feel like the writers at The Verge get stupider every week. What Elon said, in response to a thread about Nvidia Alpamayo, was that safe unsupervised self-driving required a training set somewhere on the order of 10 billion miles. The training set is videos of humans driving manually. Not miles of self-driving usage. You do not need 10 billion miles of self-driving usage, to have 10 billion miles of customer driving data. Tesla crossed that threshold long ago. That’s how Tesla was able to start deploying unsupervised FSD in January. 10 billion miles of self-driving usage has absolutely nothing to do with the size of the training set.

@tlavoie83 @PlayoffBook_ Just shoulder check nbd at least it wasn’t a “full extension” gtfo

@PlayoffBook_ Not a full extension, Brooks and Oneale do it all the time, but push your narrative young fella

LIKE OPEN YOUR FUCKING EYES CLEARLY A PUSH OFF

@samwhoo This is an incredible post and it was a great read.

I think this is the best post I've ever made.

@rtwlz Innovation at its finest

made my computer dramatically play BBC news music before every meeting

@AtherionDev @greggertruck HW4 is a chasm if you care about FSD

@greggertruck Well those people can afford it, which is fine with me, downside I missed the HW4 upgrade, but honestly still happy I got a Tesla and even a version of FSD is better than any other car on the market.

Rage bait. Gas vehicles depreciate too. go look how much a Ford Escape is worth after five years and get back to me(it loses 50%, and has likely spent a good amount of time in a service bay at your cost!)

@ChaseMcDou @Austen If you look at just inference it’s probably closer to 50-70% margin from what Dario has said. That still puts the theoretical compute costs above the $200 plan.

@Austen If you go off of revenue and cost numbers these companies are reporting, it’s not hard to imagine that even at API costs there are very low if any margins.

Yes, Claude Max plans are heavily discounted vs. usage via API, but it’s very different from Uber discounting rides. Uber was a two-sided marketplace with massive marginal cost per ride. Anthropic doesn’t pay API token costs and resell for Max token prices.

@kalinowski007 Respect. Not many stand on their principles.

I resigned from OpenAI. I care deeply about the Robotics team and the work we built together. This wasn’t an easy call. AI has an important role in national security. But surveillance of Americans without judicial oversight and lethal autonomy without human authorization are lines that deserved more deliberation than they got. This was about principle, not people. I have deep respect for Sam and the team, and I’m proud of what we built together.

@nypost They can sell

Anthropic investors grow frustrated with CEO after feds ban AI startup trib.al/aHWwZul

@lawrencecchen Amazing work. This is my new favourite Terminal app to use.

Introducing cmux: the open-source terminal built for coding agents. - Vertical tabs - Blue rings around panes that need attention - Built-in browser - Based on Ghostty When Claude Code needs you, the pane glows blue and the sidebar tells you why. No Electron/Tauri. Just Swift/Appkit.

@petergyang Only downside is that it uses haiku. I understand they need it for the latency but I wish they could use sonnet.

The new Claude voice chat is much better - both problems 1 and 2 below fixed.

@chamath L

In a democracy, it’s absolutely ok to define who can use the things you make and how. But it’s also absolutely ok for the Government to lose trust in you, tell you to fuck off and find an alternative. It’s also absolutely ok for you to nuke your own company in the process. The timing of this is not good for Anthropic and could be a potential boon to every other model that is exceeding expectations in their upcoming version (Grok, OAI, Gemini). More generally, I don’t see how this isn’t a slippery slope. What if a model maker updates their ToS that would block a use case that is legal but subjective? Agreeable in some states but not in others? What about in different countries with different governance or religions? It’s a huge can of worms. How can a government or company rely on a model that could have an ever-changing definition of what’s allowed without taking on major business/governance risk? They won’t. My hunch is that the company that embraces the “no holds barred” ToS will win because it’s the least risky to adopt wrt long term risk of getting rug-pulled.

@SpursCulture All my homies hate Dort

I hate Lou Dort Dirty ass player

@vkhosla @AnthropicAI Guess you’re okay with mass domestic surveillance eh?

Personal view: I admire @AnthropicAI sticking by their principles but disagree with the principle itself. Putin won’t fight fair so we should have autonomous AI weapons for sure.

@TheRealAdamG No concerns of the specific clauses around mass surveillance?

For me, it's the embedding of the OpenAI FDE team + a cloud deployment model that makes this work. People, process & technology.

@SecWar Do you think that they used Claude to write this?

This week, Anthropic delivered a master class in arrogance and betrayal as well as a textbook case of how not to do business with the United States Government or the Pentagon. Our position has never wavered and will never waver: the Department of War must have full, unrestricted access to Anthropic’s models for every LAWFUL purpose in defense of the Republic. Instead, @AnthropicAI and its CEO @DarioAmodei, have chosen duplicity. Cloaked in the sanctimonious rhetoric of “effective altruism,” they have attempted to strong-arm the United States military into submission - a cowardly act of corporate virtue-signaling that places Silicon Valley ideology above American lives. The Terms of Service of Anthropic’s defective altruism will never outweigh the safety, the readiness, or the lives of American troops on the battlefield. Their true objective is unmistakable: to seize veto power over the operational decisions of the United States military. That is unacceptable. As President Trump stated on Truth Social, the Commander-in-Chief and the American people alone will determine the destiny of our armed forces, not unelected tech executives. Anthropic’s stance is fundamentally incompatible with American principles. Their relationship with the United States Armed Forces and the Federal Government has therefore been permanently altered. In conjunction with the President's directive for the Federal Government to cease all use of Anthropic's technology, I am directing the Department of War to designate Anthropic a Supply-Chain Risk to National Security. Effective immediately, no contractor, supplier, or partner that does business with the United States military may conduct any commercial activity with Anthropic. Anthropic will continue to provide the Department of War its services for a period of no more than six months to allow for a seamless transition to a better and more patriotic service. America’s warfighters will never be held hostage by the ideological whims of Big Tech. This decision is final.

@alekslarsen This is great thanks for sharing. We think about this a lot and are seeing a lot of similar things, multiple agents, and using code execution to verify, and offering as many ways to cross check.

When I first started using Claude Code for analyzing Excel/PDFs, it would ignore important data and hallucinate. After a bunch of trial and error, I've gotten it pretty close to private equity analyst level (maybe better?) Here are the main learnings that make it work:

@sama Huge W for OpenAI

Peter Steinberger is joining OpenAI to drive the next generation of personal agents. He is a genius with a lot of amazing ideas about the future of very smart agents interacting with each other to do very useful things for people. We expect this will quickly become core to our product offerings. OpenClaw will live in a foundation as an open source project that OpenAI will continue to support. The future is going to be extremely multi-agent and it's important to us to support open source as part of that.

@ChrisGloninger This isn’t just a dumb take. It’s ai slop.

Lee, you hack, start/stop systems were invented by Toyota in 1974 and adopted by European automakers in the 2000s. They reduce fuel consumption by 5-8% and cut idle emissions by 100%. They restart in under 400 milliseconds… faster than your foot moves from brake to gas. Your car doesn't 'die.' The engine decouples from the drivetrain via a reinforced starter motor rated for 500,000+ cycles. This isn't Obama. It's thermodynamics. An engine burning fuel at zero mph does zero useful work. That's not politics. That's the first law. You're the EPA administrator and you don't understand combustion efficiency. Terrifying.

@Austen You can change this to whatever you want now

I would pay extra to not have Claude Code's status indicator say stuff like, "Razzle Dazzling..."
