Some recent examples:

GPT-4o vs. Google I/O (May 2024): OpenAI scheduled its "Spring Update" exactly 24 hours before Google’s biggest event of the year, Google I/O. They launched GPT-4o voice mode.

Sora vs. Gemini 1.5 Pro (Feb 2024): Just two hours after Google announced its breakthrough Gemini 1.5 Pro model, Sam Altman tweeted the reveal of Sora (text-to-video).

ChatGPT Enterprise vs. Google Cloud Next (Aug 2023): As Google began its major conference focused on selling AI to businesses, OpenAI announced ChatGPT Enterprise.

I usually wait to see what ArtificialAnalysis says for a direct comparison.

They mention that they implemented jitter later in the post.

But my reading of their jitter is a very narrow one for the actual connection to the database. They are still doing most of the work on the minute.

Great investigation. Slight aside, but I found the few typos that I noticed to make me feel better about continuing to read -- as a sign that the post wasn't AI-generated.

This is giving the "ultra-processed" term too much credit. Organic is at least pretty explicitly specified by the USDA (even if that definition is perhaps not what most people think or expect when they read the term).

Ultra-processed doesn't even have a single, consistent definition.

Many, if not most, donations have limits / requirements on what the money can be spent on. That's why it's such a big deal when someone doesn't make such a demand and says the grant is "unrestricted."

You can use non-USD currencies to judge how the US stock market has fared to avoid the issues with currency health. You may argue that dollar-denominated returns aren't real, but SPY isn't down even when denominated in EUR https://ycharts.com/indices/%5ESPXEUR

>median wealth (currently below 2007 levels in the USA)

This is outdated -- it surpassed 2007 levels in 2022. https://www.federalreserve.gov/econres/scf/dataviz/scf/table...

> SPY isn't down even when denominated in EUR

*SPX and no, it's down 2% when denominated in Euros while up 15% when denominated in dollars. I wouldn't say the USD has fared well so far.

I think his net worth is probably a couple of orders of magnitude lower https://swipefile.com/steve-wozniak-co-founder-of-apple-on-h...

Even 7 zeros is pretty much you can do what you want anytime you want. Ten million dollars sitting in a bank account earning 3% is 25k a month and nobody with those kinds of assets is leaving them in a bank account earning 3%.

3% is considered a "safe withdrawal rate" for stock investments, not so much if you have the money just sitting in a bank account, but you're right nevertheless. You can do whatever you want with that kind of money.

I wasn’t talking about a withdrawal rate, this is a rate of return and just living on the interest.

I'm not sure I'd label 20% as "overwhelming." I'm surprised it's not higher, to be honest.

That's fair actually. I wrote this comment a little off the cuff and rereading the article (it's been a while since I wrote it!) it's more like a strong plurality, so overwhelming was a bit much

This is also kinda funny and ironic: 'This is not, as I have labeled it, a flood, deluge, or avalanche. It's an earthquake. A rupture. Quiet in 2022, five-alarm fire in 2023.' (ibid)
