Kings come and go. These types of decisions can actually kill a king. Not instantly, of course. But still.

This sent me down a rabbit hole. In the US, the PIIA effectively is the law - your employer gets to decide whether your side project "relates to their business." In the EU (where I am) it's basically: not on a work laptop, not on work hours? Yours.

I'm fine here :)

They are actively exploiting the compute shortages of Anthropic. In our team we're pushing for more or less vanilla and portability, since the best harness today might not be the best one in 6 months.

I'm more surprised that OpenAI is extremely subsidising their ChatGPT subscriptions. With Plus you can do a lot more than with Calude's x5 Max. Is it an expense they just can afford, while people have not migrated over from CC?

I'm wondering if this is the same Milla Jovovich many of us know and love...

For those who see this tomorrow (not on April 1st) or are watching it on mobile, where it's stock kagi - here's a screenshot: https://f.laacz.lv/C4C1NkU

This will be gone tomorrow and it's not visible on mobile (shows classic Kagi homepage). So here's a screenshot: https://f.laacz.lv/C4C1NkU

Is it just me or gradients and tile grid with specific hover effects are AI generated stuff giveaways? Maybe it's old people yelling at clouds, but I'm very reluctant to trust the site, when I see these signs.

Judging from the performance issues with Claude Code, you won't be able to run a decent agentic cli or desktop workflow orchestrator on anything other than mbp.

That's part of a personality fit.

An economist friend recently said. If it bursts, it's definitely a bubble. If it does not burst, then it's not a bubble.

I hope they have a clause regarding what to do if Anthropic and Bun should part. Looking for sponsor is one thing, bet direction and velocity might not align in future. Which is what I'm most afraid of tbh.

Recently I've used Claude Code to perform some entry to mid level web-based CTF hunting in a fully autonomous mode (--allow-dangerously-skip-permissions in an isolated environment). It excels at low hanging fruit - XSS, other injections, IDOR, hidden form fields, session fixation, careful enumeration, etc.

Which troubles me a bit, as 'bad' does not have same definition for everyone.

Then the fight Kagi is proposing is against bad AI content, not AI content per-se? Then that's very subjective...

Should we care? It's a tool. If you can manage to make it look original, then what can we do about it? Eventually you won't be able to detect it.

Though I'm still pissed at Kagi about their collaboration with Yandex, this particular kind of fight against AI slop has always striked me as a bit of Don Quixote vs windmill.

AI slop eventually will get as good as your average blogger. Even now if you put an effort into prompting and context building, you can achieve 100% human like results.

I am terrified of AI generated content taking over and consuming search engines. But this tagging is more a fight against bad writing [by/with AI]. This is not solving the problem.

Yes, now it's possible somehow to distinguish AI slop from normal writing often times by just looking at it, but I am sure that there is a lot of content which is generated by AI but indistinguishable from one written by mere human.

Aso - are we 100% sure that we're not indirectly helping AI and people using it to slopify internet by helping them understand what is actually good slop and what is bad? :)

We're in for a lot of false positives as well.

T-shirt folding is nice et al, but its final size is ok only for normal-sized shirts. With this method XL and larger t-shirts don't fold into neat small things.

I suppose that Simon, being all in with LLMs for quite a while now, has developed a good intuition/feeling for framing questions so that they produce less hallucinations.

No it’s not, since it’s been acquired by essentially government.

Author admits that this was AI generated slop: https://www.taylor.gl/blog/30

These are moving so fast, that there is nothing we might have on stand-by.

This thread's responses are a classic whataboutism. Instead of addressing this particular issue, people address others. I support motion for Kagi to drop Yandex integration, because of the reasons cited.

When they first got mentioned, I started aggregating their links. Just now did a quick analysis to look if they've changed something. At the beginning Kite contained a lot of rt.com (Russian propaganda) and a few other discutable sources. rt.com has not surfaced since May 22, which is good. Hope they'll reconsider Kagi's Yandex integration as well.

Still reading all of their announcements in hope that they'll drop pro-russian Yandex integration.

This is weird. I always thought that not astronomers, but two blokes named Delambre and Méchain were responsible for this [1].

The arc measurement of Delambre and Méchain was a geodetic survey carried out by Jean-Baptiste Delambre and Pierre Méchain in 1792–1798 to measure an arc section of the Paris meridian between Dunkirk and Barcelona. This arc measurement served as the basis for the original definition of the metre.

This is a link to a dashboard, not an announcement or anything else persistent over time.

I came here to tell that the story was a rather delightful read regardless agreeing or not with the points being made.
