I am sure all dictators/authoritarian leaders in the world are very happy
YouTube seems to be at least trialing out blocking VPNs and proxies
I really fear what sort of internet the future has in store for us. Probably where you have to identity yourself to every service and where anonymity and VPN use are increasingly illegal.

Unironicaly there is a book for kids called "Warranty Men" from Eduard Uspensky - about little people who live inside devices and mechanisms and repair them during the warranty period.
And by this book cartoon was filmed

Also good thing to keep in mind, that afaik the current "subscription token economy" is heavily subsidized and I am not sure Anthropic/OpenAI are charging necessarily full amount (i.e the same price that would charge for API cost)
This is why I genuinely believe that in the model game, there is no moat, and there will always be tremendous pressure for open source and cheaper models. The majority of the world economy doesn't want to pay $21 (!!!) per million tokens, even if they can afford to

I have seen such case also :
>Dataset released in ICLR 2025
> In January 2026 you can't access dataset because it was deleted from Hugging face (likely due to licencing issues related to using stuff from Common crawl)
>Dataset released in ICLR 2025
> In January 2026 you can't access dataset because it was deleted from Hugging face (likely due to licencing issues related to using stuff from Common crawl)
Case: Paper released in Datasets & Benchmarks track in NeurIPS and the annotations are wrong. And the authors unresponsive. 🤦♂️

I still can't calibrate myself about Danish robotics ecosystem
I have heard so many times that Odense is European capital of robotics, but I haven't heard about any startups from there

It's so hard to be calibrated about robotics companies. I've been blown away by so many demos only to speak to an employee of the company and discover they're doing terribly

What if position encodings were designed for vision from scratch? We introduce PaPE—Parabolic Position Encoding. Outperforms RoPE on 7/8 datasets and extrapolates to higher resolutions without fine-tuning or position interpolation. Paper, code, and website in thread 🧵

It is so energy draining/frustrating + extremely anxious to be stuck in the limbo because you are waiting for a decision out of your control

I don't want to defend Trump voters, but I don't quite like "sane nation" sentiment :
In Britain Nigel Farage is popular again, AFD getting popular in Germany, Finland/Sweden "ellected" far right during last election (as part of government coalition, but still) and so on ->

I’m still not sure if enough Americans fully understand how hard it is for the rest of us to continually see polls showing “how unpopular Trump is” when he’s he’s still ridiculously and shockingly more popular than he should be in any sane nation.

I couldn't connect the dots for quite some time but finally figured what current US situation reminds me of (i.e likable mayor of major city vs corrupt president)
This is actually almost like Gergely Karácsony (mayor of Budapest) vs Viktor Orbán (prime Minister of Hungary)

I don't want to be rude, but imho it is not "AI noticeably degraded programmers" it is more like "Programmers that used AI to substitute their thinking process degraded themselves"

I agree but also I think it is important to mention that there were a lof of AI in our phones/browsers long before even GPT-2
But it was framed as just "useful new feature" and not force fed undercooked product under shiny wrapper

"people don't want AI" is a factually incorrect statement. "people don't want forced AI" I think is directionally true though.
you don't get to 1B weekly actives for a dedicated, separate brand new application (see ChatGPT usage numbers) by being unpopular.

It is almost like cutting down/calming car trafic is more efficient solution then self-driving cars
“They cut speed limits, changed street design, removed space for cars… Now it appears that work is paying off. #Oslo & #Helsinki are reaping the rewards of committed action on making their roads safer, reducing pedestrian fatalities to zero last year.” #VisionZero #SpeedKills
How Helsinki and Oslo cut pedestrian deaths to zero
After years of committed action, neither city recorded a single pedestrian fatality in 2019

"Slow horses" is a great series imho
As someone who watched probably too much of "2000-2010 superhuman genius FBI detective" type of stuff - this one was nice refreshment and I kind of like British humor

Sam Altman is saying that OpenAI will slow down hiring not because of AI productivity gains, but because OpenAI tried to pursue too many projects and this strategy is failing them

Introducing Ai2 Open Coding Agents—starting with SERA, our first-ever coding models. Fast, accessible agents (8B–32B) that adapt to any repo, including private codebases. Train a powerful specialized agent for as little as ~$400, & it works with Claude Code out of the box. 🧵
