https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/22pdf/21-869_87ad.pdf is the most recent SCOTUS precedent covering the definition of "transformative" for the purposes of fair use.

The tl;dr is that you have to look at the impact on the market for the use to figure out if it's transformative [1]... which means it's extremely unlikely that training for AI is going to be considered "transformative", and thus they lose the first factor. Given that AI is absolutely reamed on the fourth factor (especially now that they're paying people to use their content for training, that's basically a concession on the fourth factor), there isn't really any grounds for them to claim fair use.

[1] Yes, it's pulling the fourth factor into the first factor, it is a rather garbage opinion, but it is precedent as of 3 years ago.

This reminds me of something I remember from college but cannot ever seem to find: "The Jevon's diagram" by which I mean a two country system, with country containing two groups: highly educated and not very educated. The two countries have very different proportions of each group, and the analysis is around free immigration vs no immigration, and shows the harm done to the larger number of less uneducated in one of the countries. Anyway, I'm not going to do a good job of describing this thing, from 20 years ago in class, here, but if anybody knows offhand what I mean and can point me at an article or source on this, I'd be very appreciative! It's bugging me from way back! (where are my notes! Silly tobmlt, not taking notes in latex back then)

With AGI/ASI, there will come a point where this paradox breaks down: once the ASI is self-sufficient and "agentic enough", people's direct use for it will actually reduce. You won't need to "micromanage" it - and the total amount of compute it requires might actually drop drastically if the ASI improves its own efficiency much better than humans can. At that point the question becomes one of alignment: will overall consumption drop because ASI subjugates or eliminates humanity or does it grow exponentially as we use it to explore the stars.

In my experience women are not statistically hyper selective. The less selective women are just out of the dating pool faster than the hyper selective ones.

Show HN: Yet another LLM agent framework but minimal and just TypeScript
Most LLM agent frameworks feel like they were designed by a committee - either trying to solve every possible use case with convoluted abstractions or making sure they look great in demos so they can raise millions.

I wanted something lightweight, code-first, and TypeScript-native, so I built a new one. It’s a minimal, strongly-typed agent framework that lets you structure LLM-powered apps without unnecessary complexity.

Key ideas:

Minimal – No unnecessary complexity, just the essentials
Code-first – Feels like normal TypeScript, not a magic black box
Type-first – Structured inputs/outputs using Zod/@annotations
Explicit control – You define how agents behave, no hidden surprises
Model-agnostic – OpenAI, Anthropic, DeepSeek, etc.

For some people, maybe they can't afford to lose $1000-$1500 and the time, all which might be a bigger deal than some nudes getting out.

For myself, my personal and professional contact lists wouldn't be pleased, and I would apologize to them, but it's not going to cause me to lose any money. I'm certainly not going to be embarrassed about nudity or body shape/condition. Everyone is nude under their clothes, and other people have the same body shape or maybe even medical conditions. (Unhygienics is something else though, and that would be unpleasant.)

Also, I don't let anyone take nudes of me, nor do so myself, because it's just easier to assume that anything digital might be hacked one day.
It's not open source. The provide the model and the weights, but not the source code and, crucially, the training data. As long as LLM makers don't provide the training data (and they never will, because then they will be admitting to stealing), LLMs are never going to be open source.

Some people have high levels of COVID-19 spike protein, long after main infection is gone. There is very easy way to test for it.

Some retroviruses like HIV are able to modify DNA, and embed themselves into cells permanently. Perhaps COVID-19 is doing something similar! It would be nice to do DNA scan, for sequences that produce spike proteins, on people with long COVID symptoms!
Given they’ve open sourced the model and their training techniques, shouldn’t it be pretty easy to get an order of magnitude estimate on if their training estimates are in the right ballpark?

In fact, it is exactly the point of the article that more access was used than is provided in the API. Distillation is not possible with API access.

Ask HN: Would an AI That Writes, Schedules and Posts Content Help Solo Founders?
Hey HN,

As a solo founder, I struggled to keep my LinkedIn personal page and product blog active while running my business. So, I’m validating an idea for an AI-powered tool that:

Understands your brand & products automatically to create content that feels like you
Mixes in real-time industry trends to keep posts relevant
Writes, schedules & posts automatically – no manual work needed
Learns from engagement data to improve future posts
Runs hands-free, so you never have to worry about content again

Would this save you time? Or do you see other challenges with content consistency that AI could help solve? I’d love to hear your thoughts!
Nothing had a billion users; the Internet didn't at the time.

MySpace and Friendster both spent significant time as the #1 social sites. Facebook unseated them rapidly. The same is possible for OpenAI.

Not at all - that would require closing the border.

Yes.

I think we agree on this point. Yes, countries are defined with maps/paperwork/borders, but when I said "what makes a country", I meant it in the sense of what makes it unique or different, what gives it its character. Certainly territory is part of that, but the larger, much more important part, are its people, i.e. the nation.

At some point in the last couple of years I have entered a couple prompts in chatbotgpt using my friend's account just to see it with my own eyes (funny enough asking slop, but before that was the word, and hallucinations). I also ran a prompt through llama.cpp just to see if it would work. It did, great, I don't really care.

If it matters, I'm a professional nuclear engineer with a lifelong interest and expertise in reactor history.
I'm not being sarcastic, but we may soon have to torrent DeepSeek's model. OpenAI has a lot of clout in the US and could get DeepSeek banned in western countries for copyright.

To be fair, Trump is far from the first to practice selective enforcement. As long as cannabis remains schedule 1, the DEA could raid every dispensary and farm in states that have "legalized" it, the only thing stopping them is our presidents turning a blind eye. All those "10 ridiculous laws still on the books" listicles operate on the same principle: nobody cares to enforce them, and since nobody is enforcing them, there isn't enough political will to repeal them, either.

Which is to say SCOTUS will absolutely approve of Trump refusing to enforce laws he dislikes, for better and for worse. The emergency declarations to enforce unconstitutional rules he just imagined like an LLM hallucination will likely be far worse, and even if SCOTUS says no, I doubt he will obey them (SCOTUS has no enforcement powers, after all).
He probably does. Or at least I assume a furnished apartment is always available. Buying "property" (and I assume in Zuckerberg terms, that means a large home or a piece of land) implies a more substantial investment and possibly a commitment to spend a much larger percentage of his time in DC.

Sublime is extraordinary. It's one of the softwares I've loved the most, by far. Even today, it's always opened and I use it for quick fixes and code browsing.

However, despite my fondness for it, VS Code, and now Cursor, have largely taken over for me. Cursor, in particular, has literally completely transformed how I code. And yes, it's slower and more bloated, but the value-added of Cursor is worse it.

That is exactly what Microsoft and Sam Alman are asking for. And they will likely get it because Trump really likes protectionist governments policies.
I think OpenAI is in a really weak position here. There are essentially two positions you can be in: You can be the agile new startup that can break the rules and move fast. That's what OpenAI used to be. Or you can be the big incumbent who is going to use your enormous resources to crush your opposition. That's Google & Microsoft here. For Microsoft to say "We're going to tie you up in lawsuits about the way you trained this model" would be perfectly expected and they can use that strategy because at any given time they have 1,000 lawyers and lobbyists hanging around waiting to do exactly that. But OpenAI can't do that. They don't have Google or Microsoft's legal teams or lobbyists or distribution channels. SO whilst it's funny that OpenAI are kind of trying to go down this road, this isn't actually a strategy that is going to work for them, they're still a minnow and they're going to get distracted and slowed down by this.

> Wonder if the AI rush will result in a situation where the state of the art is so far beyond what's needed for gaming that gpus won't be a bottleneck anymore.

I dunno, it seems the scaling is different for AI. Like AI is more about horizontal scaling and gaming is more about vertical scaling (after you get to native 4k resolutions).
That's a fair critique of a bad analogy. But it still misses the point of the collective action problem. Consider a different analogy: you are free to burn as much fuel as you want, and individually it doesn't make much difference. But if everyone collectively takes that same stance, it leads to large negative externalities.

IMO the extreme libertarian view works fine for small groups but does not do a good job of managing collective action problems in large societies when the scope exceeds our psychological bandwidth.

It’s not better. In most of my tests (C++/QT code) it just runs out of context before it can really do anything. And the output is very bad - it mashes together the header and cpp file. The reasoning output is fun to look at and occasionally useful though.

The max token output is only 8K (32K thinking tokens). O1 is 128k, which is far more useful, and it doesn’t get stuck like R1 does.

The hype around the DeepSeek release is insane and I’m starting to really doubt their numbers.
I read that and saw:

Tip: If you don’t have Windows Notepad installed, you can download it from the Microsoft Store.

I have too much to say about that, so I'll just leave it.
I use a similar approach due to me having the luxury of an owned domain.

The problem, however, is that most companies still rely on crappy Enterprise services like Microsoft Office. For most people managing identities like this is impossible to do - due to either lack of user-friendly options or due to too high thresholds of necessary IT knowledge.

I mean, we are speaking about having to configure Dovecot and Postfix and similar tools, and I fuck that up regularly. And we are also assuming that they have to be unguessable (you have github@? maybe I should target linkedin@, too, then!) which implies that they have to be random-looking which means they will likely be blocked by registration filters.

Newer projects like Maddy [1] kind of go towards that direction, but are still targeted at developers or sysadmins.

Thanks for reminding people of this.

Open source means two things in spirit:

(a) You have everything you need to be able to re-create something, and at any step of the process change it.

(b) You have broad permissions how to put the result to use.

The "open source" models from both Meta so far fail either both or one of these checks (Meta's fails both). We should resist the dilution of the term open source to the point where it means nothing useful.
Thanks! That makes sense now.
Are you sure this is still true?
