President Trump’s new executive order creates a voluntary regime for pre-deployment AI evaluations. That is a meaningful step. The order gets the policy problem right, and frontier AI models with advanced cyber capabilities should not be released into the world without serious testing. Does it leave the legitimacy problem unresolved? Secrecy, voluntary participation, and industry proximity are a fragile combination. Link 🔗 here . submitted by /u/BubblyOption7980 [link] [留言]

This is not about the money. It’s about the principle. ​We are constantly told that AI is here to "help" us, but multi-million dollar companies like Perplexity are weaponizing their own AI to steal from regular users, stonewall our complaints, and blatantly violate consumer rights. It is systemic corporate greed, and they are getting away with it because people are too exhausted to fight back against a machine. ​Well, I am fighting back, and you should too. Here is the absolute scam Perplexity is running right now. ​ How they steal your money: ​Living in Latvia, I pay for my Education Pro subscription in Euros (equivalent to $10/month). ​April 27: A payment was due, but my card declined. Fair enough. Perplexity froze my account immediately. I had ZERO access to Pro features. ​May 16: I manually paid for my subscription to reactivate it. The payment cleared. ​May 29: Barely 13 days later, my account was stripped of its Pro status and locked again. ​When I demanded an explanation, their billing system's "logic" was revealed: They took my May 16 payment and retroactively applied it to the "past due" period of April 27 - May 16. A period where my account was completely frozen and the service was actively withheld. ​They effectively charged me for a full month of service, gave me 13 days of access, and pocketed the rest. This isn’t a glitch; it’s unjust enrichment. It is theft. ​Enter "Sam" the AI ​If you try to get your money back, you don't get a human. You get "Sam, the AI Support Agent." ​I tried to explain that under European law, you cannot charge a customer for digital services you didn't provide. Sam’s response? A pre-programmed loop denying my refund, claiming I was "outside the 14-day EU refund window." ​Here is the most infuriating part: I did submit a ticket well within that window. But their automated system closed it without resolving it. When I pointed this out, the AI literally replied: "I don't have access to separate ticket histories." ​They use their o

Several real estate listings in the San Francisco Bay Area are offering to exchange a home for a piece of the AI startup.

I put my family on a private social network, and all I got was this lousy group chat. At least it’s secure.

MiniMax released M3 today and the API is already live. Worth separating what comes from their own official model page versus what comes from the launch announcement, because some of the numbers are sourced differently. From the official model page: BrowseComp 83.5, ahead of Claude Opus 4.7 at 79.3. PostTrainBench 37.1, which ranks third behind Opus 4.7 at 42.4 and GPT-5.5 at 39.3. From the launch announcement: SWE-Bench Pro 59.0%, Terminal Bench 2.1 66.0%, MCP Atlas 74.2%. The headline "beats Opus" is BrowseComp-specific, not a general capability claim across all dimensions. The context window is up to 1M tokens, implemented through their in-house MiniMax Sparse Attention architecture. They state 512K as the guaranteed minimum with 1M as the ceiling. The model was trained on 100T+ tokens and is natively multimodal rather than vision being added after the fact. Open-weights release is coming to HuggingFace and GitHub but listed as "coming soon." API access is available now through several paths, including OpenAI-compatible endpoints, while the weights are still pending. The model also supports native MCP tooling, which is where the 74.2% MCP Atlas number comes from. The demo claims are the part worth being skeptical about. A 12-hour autonomous ICLR paper replication run and a CUDA kernel optimization loop reaching 9.4x speedup are impressive if real, but these are curated showcase demos that are hard to evaluate from a screenshot. Whether sparse attention holds up at 900K+ tokens in practice rather than in controlled benchmarks is an open question. submitted by /u/Drysetcat [link] [留言]

Every impressive agent demo skips the same three things: Auth. The demo target is open. The real one has a login and a 2FA prompt. Identity. The demo agent acts as the developer. The real one needs its own email, accounts, and a place to keep secrets. State. The demo is one clean run. The real one has to remember what it did last time and resume. These are not AI problems, which is exactly why they get skipped in AI demos. But they are most of the work to go from "cool clip" to "thing that runs unattended." The model is increasingly the easy part. The unglamorous identity-and-state layer around it is where products actually live or die. Curious whether people think this layer gets commoditized into the foundation models, or stays a separate thing you assemble. submitted by /u/kumard3 [link] [留言]

Operator perspective. I use AI daily across three companies and I am bullish on it, but the gap between what gets shouted on stage and what the data shows is enormous. Best measured number across hundreds of engineers is about 7.8%, and 66% of the people who hit a peak gain saw it fade the next quarter. At the same time, people are being pushed onto it under threat of their jobs while the return is not even proven to the people mandating it. My read is the anger is not really “AI is bad,” it is “my boss profits from me using it and I do not.” Where do you land - is the resistance cognitive (it erodes skill) or economic (the gain is not shared)? submitted by /u/Alternative_Letter72 [link] [留言]

I’ve been using AI pretty heavily for the past few months — quick research, rewriting emails, brainstorming ideas, even helping outline stuff I need to write. It saves so much time and the output is usually decent. But lately I’ve noticed something weird: I’m second-guessing myself way less. I’ll get an answer from it and just kind of roll with it instead of thinking it through like I used to. Yesterday I asked it about something I already had a rough opinion on, accepted its take, and only later realized I didn’t even challenge any part of it. It feels convenient as hell, but also a little unsettling. Like I’m outsourcing the actual thinking part. Is this normal? Or am I slowly losing the habit of thinking deeply on my own? Anyone else feeling this? submitted by /u/pen-pineapple-apple [link] [留言]

Online it feels like every company is fully embracing AI. In reality, most organizations I interact with are still trying to figure out where it fits into existing workflows, processes and software. The interesting conversations aren't usually about models anymore. They're about trust, reliability, permissions, governance and how AI fits into the way people already work. The gap between AI demos and real-world adoption still feels larger than most people realize. submitted by /u/Bladerunner_7_ [link] [留言]

Thoughts? Do you guys use models like Kimi or DeepSeek? Are you worried about data privacy, or not so much concern? submitted by /u/RutabagaTechnical822 [link] [留言]

PageSpeed Insights had been staring at me for weeks. Desktop was holding at 91. Mobile was stuck at 63. I'd already fixed the obvious stuff — non-blocking fonts, preconnects, fetchpriority on the hero image. But there it was, every single run: Improve image delivery — Est savings of 985 KiB Nearly a megabyte of wasted transfer, just from six project screenshots. And that was just the images visible above the fold. The full list across all projects was worse. The culprit: every image I'd ever uploaded through the Django admin was a PNG. Some of them were over 1 MB. WebP would have cut most of them by 80%. I knew this. I just hadn't done anything about it. So I wrote a management command to fix the backlog, and then made the model auto-convert on every future upload so I'd never have to think about it again. The Problem With PNGs in a Portfolio When you're building a portfolio, you screenshot your work and drag it into the admin. That screenshot is usually a PNG — lossless, full-size, straight from your display. Nobody optimises it because the admin accepts it and it shows up fine in the browser. But "shows up fine" isn't the same as "loads fast." A 1.4 MB PNG of a law firm homepage does not need to be 1.4 MB. Served as WebP at quality 85, it's 175 KB. Same visual result. Eight times smaller. Multiply that across 28 projects and you're looking at tens of megabytes that mobile users on slow 4G are downloading just to scroll past thumbnails. The One-Time Backlog Fix: A Management Command First, I needed a way to convert everything that was already in S3. A management command was the right tool — it runs in the production container with full access to the Django ORM and the configured storage backend, so it can read and rewrite files without needing to know whether they're on S3, local disk, or anywhere else. # backend/projects/management/commands/convert_images_to_webp.py from io import BytesIO from django.core.files.base import ContentFile from django.core.management.b

I found a site like this a while ago but I can’t seem to find it now. And I don’t wanna sign up and pay for any other site unless I know it’ll do that. Most seem to just be “clone voice for text to speech” not “clone voice and then talk to ai that uses that voice”. I need the latter submitted by /u/OkWatermelonlesson65 [link] [留言]

I've been building Linkwise as a solo developer for the past year. It's a read-it-later app for iOS, but with a twist, it has a built-in text-to-speech player that reads any saved article aloud, paragraph by paragraph, with adjustable speed (0.8x to 2.5x). I built it because I kept saving articles I'd never get back to. Now I just listen to them on walks or during my commute. Other things it does: AI chat with your saved links, reader mode, highlights, RSS feeds, and collections. Would love to hear what you think. Roast it, break it, suggest features, all welcome. submitted by /u/dheeraj_iosdev [link] [留言]

The problem I wanted to solve: Stockfish tells you what the best move is, but never why . Players under 1800 don't lose because they can't read centipawns — they lose because they don't understand plans, structures, key squares. What the tool does: Imports your games from Chess.com or Lichess Stockfish 17.1 WASM runs in your browser (fully local, nothing uploaded) A pattern detector finds 18 types of recurring mistakes across all your games (missed forks, exposed king, bad bishop, neglected development...) An LLM generates coaching narratives in the style of a 2700+ coach Instead of: -89 cp · Best: Nc3 Nf6 Be3 The AI coach says: "Bd3 is premature — the bishop attacks nothing and blocks d3 where the queen may want to go. Nc3 was the right move: it defends d4, prevents Black's ...e5 counterplay, and leaves the bishop free to settle on Be3 or Be2 depending on Black's plan." You can also chat with the coach — it knows your full game history, opening stats, specific weaknesses. Ask "why do I keep losing with Black in the French?" and it answers with data from YOUR games. Other features: spaced repetition (SM-2) on your own blunders, puzzle rush with real mistakes, 6-month progress tracking. Free tier: unlimited Stockfish. Pro ($14.99/mo, 15-day free trial): LLM coach + chat. https://chessmentorai.com Happy to discuss the prompting approach — getting the LLM to explain chess like a coach (not an engine) was the hardest part. submitted by /u/sepiropht [link] [留言]

Most security tools for AI agents check one message at a time. Arc Gate tracks the whole conversation. That matters because the attacks that actually work in production don’t happen in one message. They happen across 8 turns. Each one looks clean. By the time the payload arrives your agent is already primed to execute it. I built Arc Gate using a geometric framework from my own research to detect adversarial behavioral drift across a full session — not just flag individual messages. When a conversation starts drifting toward something dangerous, it catches the pattern before the attack completes. I’m looking for 3 teams running real agents to test it against actual workflows and tell me where it breaks. Not chatbot wrappers. Agents with real tool access. Browser use, email actions, MCP servers, internal copilots, workflow automation. No charge. No sales call. Just feedback from people close to production. Comment or DM me if that’s you.

Hot take: if I wanted to gather data via the internet, and I’m writing scripts/code to speed up the process, I have to follow some basic rules (ie look at the sitemap, find relevant robots.txt, follow that websites preference and rules). But it seems any AI-agent I’ve used does not give af about rules and limits, and is totally cool building me a scraper that will perform hundreds of thousands of requests without regards to the website owner’s preference. Given it’s widely known you can use AI for simple coding tasks I can easily see a future where ordinary individuals are operating their own scrapers. Especially in gathering high-value information that “seems easy to get” like google search rankings, or job data. This creates an obvious nightmare for Google, ATS platforms, and just about every website on the internet if everyone and their mother starts spinning up Playwright sessions in Python. I’m deadset on this being a responsbility of AI providers (anthropic, open ai, anysphere, etc). But how are these companies supposed to balance this without implementing guardrails that heavily limit their products? Maybe this has been solved and someone can feed my curiosity. submitted by /u/TacoTuesdayX [link] [留言]
