Besides just being yet another example of the Trump admin abusing power and weaponizing legitimate laws in illegitimate ways to extract concessions, there is another reason this is dumb -- which is that Anthropic just has the best models!
As someone who wants America to win, ripping out Claude and putting in xAI is a terrible idea. Definitely setting us back a few months on capabilities
I have been using it on and off for a few months since getting the device delivered through the kickstarter funding campaign . The code base keeps changing frequently and isn’t stable . But there is an active and helpful discord channel . Initially there was an option to bring your own API keys from open ai and deepgram . But now the ability to bring own api keys seems to be gone and that will concern me about privacy etc .,
. The design is simple , device collects the voice sends it to deepgram , transcript is stored on device and then shared with open ai with relevant prompts to summarise the discussion and do what ever you want through plugins that can be configured. Use it primarily as a backup / secondary notes taker in meetings . Think of it like a Microsoft teams copilot or firefly equivalent for zoom etc There is a option to store the voice and transcripts to your own gcp bucket which is nice if you want to remember / do any prompt engineering on your meeting transcripts Something like this will replace the expensive meetings / note taking apps The integration with outlook / calendar apps is flaky and the level of details and ability to setup next steps / meetings schedule through transcripts is weak
So not only does it record everybody you talk to without meaningful consent or any realistic way to escape it, but it also uploads the results to a bunch of cloud services run by sleazeballs and idiots.
Very cool post, but as someone who has been on the other side of the situation, I do have sympathy for what they are trying to accomplish.
I bought a ticket that someone had double sold, and by the time I got to the door, they turned me away and said the ticket had already been used. So their system has good intentions, they just need to make it work offline.
I have a cluster on RunPod and it's great, but there's definitely some opportunity in the space, for example if you can focus on transparency (utilization rates, more info about end user and their purpose, reporting) that would be helpful.
I think RunPod and Vast have most the market share but t's still early to the game
This is great news and required a lot of courage from Governor Newsom. He was put in a tough place between two of his largest supporters (tech and labor). Paradigm shifts like autonomy are hard in the short term, but it never makes sense to hamstring technology to preserve jobs - if that were the case we'd still be paying punchcard operators instead of using computers. Not to mention that this will make our roads safer.
Took me a while to figure out how to make an investor update in Notion with Charts, so I decided to publish this open source. Hope it's helpful. Only caveat is you need to use Notion2Charts for the charting until Notion builds charts natively
Recently built a project that turns CSVs and databases into charts and graphs using GPT3. This was inspired by trying to create visualizations for some data in Google Sheets and finding the UI hard to use. Let me know if you have feedback!
