Seems like the math ain‘t mathing for any ither but Anthropics pay-per-token API plan.

Try it out and you will quickly see how much money they‘d really like for your excessive usage.

Google products ux is widely acknowledged to be a steaming pile of shit though, so I am not sure you should follow their example.

Many of the metrics they use are obviously actively user hostile.

Would you allow it on yours? As a shareholder or on the board of directors of your company I would not be pleased.

Nothing nefarious about that.

It’s not illegal, just stupid because. Because plaintiffs can use this as evidence that they can police their own platforms

That’s an internet argument. The legal issue being debated in actual courts has never been “does Facebook have the technical capability to remove content”.

There's a strong chance it's illegal so admitting to it is pretty breathtaking. They must be very confident they're in the clear, or the spokesperson didn't run this by the right people.

What is illegal about it? What law does it break?

Could these removals indicate editorial discretion that would remove § 230 protections from Facebook?

I think that would apply if they started removing user content about this. But Facebook is simply declining to accept ads about this, which doesn't seem like it would apply here.

> Maybe the brain

…is already damaged by reliance on AI.

And that’s exactly why I’ve stopped using llm’s entirely.

People who are using them frequently: you’re delusional if you think your brain is not harmed. I won’t go into great detail because I can’t be bothered and I’m sure this post will be down voted - but - I can share my own experience. Ever since I stopped using them my ability to focus, think hard and hold concepts in my brain and reason about them has increased immensely. Not only that but I re-gained the conditioning of my brain to ‘deal with the pain’ that comes with deep thought - all of that gets lost by spending too much time interacting with llm’s.

I estimate far above 90% of frontends do the same thing you could do with .jsp or .jsf 20 years ago and yet here we are still not having perfectly reusable frontend primitives and everyone doing custom development. We were closer to that with bootstrap than now with tailwind.

I am convinced neither client side nor backend side AI solutions will solve this.

Fully on topic: It would be naive to believe that serious web offerings would allow you to do this. Reality is moving in a different direction: Try applying custom css and js to reddit, for example: The website is a nightmarish matryoshka of shadow dom components and that‘s only the beginning of the flashification and silverlightification of the web.

How many of those are used regularly by more than 0.1% users?

You can cancel your subscription, there are like 5 competitors you can pick instead and anthropic offers an API plan where you can find out how many tokens circus tools like claws really consume compared to coding tasks.

Humanity did something better (humans on the moon) decades ago and now we are struggling to fly around the moon.

This is not exciting, it‘s embarassing.

Besides that it‘s a massive waste of money and brings no value to humanity, the USA or science. Why is this done again?

I feel like anyone excited about this is weird.

I really hope it won‘t take my job and I am very afraid, nut:

Why hasn‘t it happened yet? Why hasn‘t the job market imploded? What‘s missing? Why do my colleagues, I and my friends still have their bullshit jobs? Why didn‘t my companies output explode through our unlimited claude access? What about all the other companies?

Universal paperclips. And here I am asking ChatGPT which type of onion to use dor coq au vin.
