Are you saying this hypothetical corporation is already doing something illegal, and that's why they don't want courts to have access? That intentional hiding sounds in-and-of-itself illegal too.

I don't think the average person has heard of Claude either.

I explained to someone who hadn't heard of it what Claude was, and they asked, "so it's another kind of ChatGPT?"

Right, to the actual average person, they have never heard of Grok.

The average person who has heard of Grok is already on Reddit.

Now that SpaceX is public, at a valuation that is both very high and supported primarily by xAI (Grok), it cannot simply go back to making rockets.

It's apples and oranges. Lines of code is just a measurement. You can't look at a whole codebase and say "these X lines are essential, those Y lines are excess, delete those" -- the lines interact with each other to create the whole thing.

It would be like saying "Weight in kilograms of course is an asset for an airplane. That's what keeps it in the air. What other real asset is the airplane made of?"

For legal reasons, a human will still need to be in the self-driving van, so the job description will change to "drone van chaperone".

"preprint", as though there will ever be a "print" in the future.

Yes, it's quantized (4 bit). Sure, it's... not quite as good as what's on offer via API. And sure, "up to" does a lot of work (I don't have an average/median for you but it feels fast to me).

But it's usable, fully local, fully private, and has no subscriptions and no operating costs other than electricity.

Stances that would have been mainstream left (democrat US) just a few years ago are now labeled MAGA (US) or 'extreme right' (EU).

I'm guessing this is pretty specific to LGBTQ rights? (edit: and is maybe more like 15+ years?)
