I don’t know. I personally wouldn’t take it if you aren’t also working out/lifting frequently (even if you drink a ton of water).
Anecdotal so safe to ignore this… but my hair did thin out but only after I was lazier on my work outs. Stopped taking and hair mostly returned to normal thank God.
I'm guessing Anthropic shut of access for everyone because currently they have no reliable way to know whether a user is or is not a US citizen.
They literally say this is why.
This is obviously a super corny / silly / dramatic thing to say.
Really sick of this stupid narrative.
The most ethical goal of an AI lab or government should be to bring the maximum amount of intelligence for as cheap as possible to the people equally.
The dream has always been a first-class framework for Cloudflare Workers.
- In the earliest days (literally go read their blog posts and GitHub repos), they only ever really did dinky little demo's.
- After and for the longest time, they tried to claim they went "Full Stack" with SSR-able abilities, but they were so terrible back then and not even well integrated into their Worker platform tools.
- This was oddly gray mixed (sometimes?) with Pages messaging which definitely was not full-stack in the sense developers wanted.
- Then getting any of this to work in a dev environment was super difficult as "wrangler dev" was very limited (wrangler is so good now FYI).
- Vercel just kind of ate Cloudflare's lunch here. No shame in it. They just couldn't get it right for developers period.
- Then very quietly "Adapters" came around and basically changed the game. Your code base finally felt portable to Workers with essentially full CF platform support.
- Now we live in AI-age and they bought Astro (?), tried to launch WP clone (?), and vibe-coded Next (?)
Big and long time coming for all of this. It is a super breath of fresh air to see even more improvements will likely come to Workers. Icing on cake is Evan is a legend who has a proven track record of delivering tools people love.
Access to intelligence is going to become a major class issue overtime if cost keeps increasing and labs try to police usage and access
It did try and lead me to touch a live hot wire once. Thanking the safety team for the honest and sincere apology it gave after was sarcasm.
Price discrimination is I think fine and reasonable so long if you can drum up the cash you can use it how you want within their ToS.
Although mental safety gymnastics aside, getting the most amount of intelligence for the cheapest amount of cost to normal people seems like the most ethical thing a big lab could do.
Going around and granting different tiers of intelligence to different insiders, friends, or companies is majorly problematic long-term.
Heck right now, the tokens you buy today for “Opus 4.8”, no one even knows or believes will be the same “Opus 4.8” just 3 days from now.
When doing some electrical, Opus 4.7 essentially told me to wiggle a wire to see if it was hot or not with my bare hand.
I called it out.
It then gave me one of the most super heartfelt honest and sincere apologies I have ever received.
Glad the safety team was there for me and able to make such an honest model or I would have been very upset about it.
Seems like they might be hinting that if you are not a billionaire or multi-billion dollar company you will just get a limited and nerfed Claude Code slash command /mythos-security-audit or something.
Hope this isn’t the case and that normal average Joe’s of the world don’t get policed out of access.
This is actually a form of AI psychosis.
It's really hard not to especially if you enjoy building.
Beautiful design and UX for the bot layouts. Kudos this is really clean
A lot of people have spent a considerable amount of time building out "claude -p" workflows trusting Anthropic because of those same Tweet assurances outside of OpenClaw.
It seems with the new "--bare" flag they are introducing, a huge rug pull is coming as they plan to deprecate -p for unlimited users.
The docs now read:
"Bare mode skips OAuth and keychain reads. Anthropic authentication must come from ANTHROPIC_API_KEY or an apiKeyHelper in the JSON passed to --settings. Bedrock, Vertex, and Foundry use their usual provider credentials. --bare is the recommended mode for scripted and SDK calls, and will become the default for -p in a future release."
Hope I am reading this wrong or this is clarified.
Oh wow, I love this idea even if it's relatively insignificant in savings.
I am finding my writing prompt style is naturally getting lazier, shorter, and more caveman just like this too. If I was honest, it has made writing emails harder.
While messing around, I did a concept of this with HTML to preserve tokens, worked surprisingly well but was only an experiment. Something like:
<h1 class="bg-red-500 text-green-300"><span>Hello</span></h1>
AI compressed to:
h1 c bgrd5 tg3 sp hello sp h1
Or something like that.
Quick everyone to your side projects. We have ~3 days of un-nerfed agentic coding again.
FWIW everyone is also building a version of this themselves. Only so many directions to go
Thanks so much! It's a fancy landing page thanks to Claude.
Tmux is seriously an amazing tool.
Not at all. I am a big a Claude Code fan and glad they are releasing more and more features for users
Eh, the value is the unlimited Max plan which they have rightfully banned from third-party use.
People simply want Opus without fear of billing nightmare.
That’s like 99% of it.
If this true. My old personal agent Claude Code setup I open sourced last month will finally be obsolete (1 month lol):
- Telegram Integration => CC Dispatch
- Crons => CC Tasks
- Animated ASCII Dog => CC Buddy
This was my setup exactly, I open sourced a framework of it a while ago:
Plus it gives a little ASCII dog to Claude Code terminal.
The ability to spawn independent CLI is awesome. No brainer they would add eventually between the great threaded functionality it brings and is essentially a more controlled version of OpenClaw IMO
An even worst day is probably coming:
Imagine if a model ever does get scary good, would the big labs even release it for general use? You couldn't even buy it if you wanted to. Exceptions would be enterprise deals / e.g.: $AMZN niche super contracts.
AI ran a git clean on me and wiped out a bunch of untracked changes.
I just asked Claude Code to help recover it. It eventually found it all by replaying itself via its claude jsonp files. I never had to install or leave anything.
Never used 4o in an unhealthy way, but the audio was so much fun (especially for cooking help). Almost essentially quit using AI audio since. Nothing compares.
This is cool and glad Cloudflare is offering options for AI to everyone (tools to block, tools to better enable).
This is probably fast, but FWIW I would bet doing a simple str replace on HTML elements with '' would yield mostly the same result. Any sort of structured content (like markdown) isn't even needed really for LLM. Make it messy and super fast and don't accidentally lose anything, it's an LLM.
If compression was really the goal, you could take it further and probably remove all words like "the" and "and", punctuation, maybe even spaces
To be fair they have like 10,000 open issues / spam issues, it's probably insane out there for them to filter all of it haha
Awesome work love it
I too suspect the A/B testing is the prime suspect: context window limits, system prompts, MAYBE some other questionable things that should be disclosed.
Either way, if true, given the cost I wish I could opt-out or it were more transparent.
Put out variants you can select and see which one people flock to. I and many others would probably test constantly and provide detailed feedback.
All speculation though
Yes it basically does! My point was that I really doubt Anthropic will miss making it clear to users that this is manipulating their computer
Have you ever used any Anthropic AI product? You cannot literally do anything without big permissions, warnings, or annoying always-on popup warning you about safety.
