None of the stuff about “AI slowdown” actually explains what that means or what’s being slowed down. Anthropic’s blog about it says they’ll still train new models. I guess if it’s a “slowdown” maybe that’s how hyperscalers could reconcile with letting them out of compute deals?

Trump’s unhinged threats of violence and genocide are inexcusable.
 
He is a warmonger, escalating the conflict for his own profit and consolidation of power.
 
My Republican colleagues can't keep turning a blind eye. He must be stopped and impeached.

I mean, how do you explain this as somebody buying copilot? “Oh just ignore that”?

Incredible things happening at OpenAI per @theinformation.com. Sam Altman is rushing the company toward IPO despite his CFO’s concerns about compute spend and revenue growth. Now Sam Altman is leaving her out of financial planning for compute. Perfect!
www.theinformation.com/articles/ope...
The Takeaway → OpenAl is committing billions of dollars years in advance to help finance data centers. → Friar last year began reporting to the head of applications instead of to Altman. → Altman has excluded her from some conversations related to financial plans. I Powered by Deep Research Those people said Altman has excluded her from some conversations related to the company's financial plans. For instance, in recent months he left Friar out of a conversation about server spending with leaders at one of OpenAl's top investors, one of these people said. Her absence was noticeable and awkward, given that a previous conversation on the same topic included her, according to an attendee. A different person who attended a senior-level meeting at OpenAI with Altman earlier this year said it was unusual that Friar was not invited, as it involved a discussion of major financial decisions. She told some colleagues earlier this year that she didn't believe the company would be ready to go public in 2026, because of the procedural and organizational work needed and the risks from its spending commitments, according to a person who spoke to her. She said she wasn't sure yet whether OpenAI would need to pour so much money into obtaining AI servers in the coming years or whether its revenue growth, which has been slowing, would support the commitments, said the person who spoke to her.

News: OpenAI CFO Sarah Friar doesn't think OpenAI is ready to go public, nor that its revenue growth will support commitments. OpenAI's already-unprofitable margins have also got worse thanks to having to buy last-minute compute due to unanticipated demand.
www.wheresyoured.at/openai-cfo-n...
Executive Summary: OpenAI CFO Sarah Friar has, per The Information, said that OpenAI is not ready to go public in 2026, in part because of the "risks from its spending commitments" and not being sure whether the company's revenue growth would support its spending commitments. Friar (CFO) no longer reports to Sam Altman (CEO) and hasn't done so since August 2025. OpenAI's margins were lower in 2025 "...due to the company having to buy more expensive compute at the last minute."

If you think AI is stupid bullshit and you want to hear someone describe - in meticulously researched detail - exactly why it is stupid bullshit, have I got a podcast recommendation for you.

Here’s this week’s Better Offline monologue. I talk about OpenAI killing Sora, and how the majority of announced data centers are barely getting built or vaporware, with only 3GW coming online in 2025, and only 5GW under construction.

It’s not just Stargate Abilene! It’s everywhere! Also projects get announced with multi-billion dollar values (based on nothing) then nothing happens. I’ve never seen anything like it, it’s crazy to me. The entire ai industry is a farce and I can’t wait for it to be over

Oh look I was right. Oh well, just $1 billion that never gets wired to anybody after an endless media hype cycle about the death of hollywood. Pobody's Nerfect! I'm sure everybody who wrote scary stories about Sora 2 destroying Hollywood will apologize
www.hollywoodreporter.com/business/dig...
A source familiar with the matter tells The Hollywood Reporter that Disney is also exiting the deal it signed with OpenAI last year, in which it pledged to invest $1 billion in the company and agreed to license some of its characters for use in Sora.

Keep being sent this completely nonsensical hogslop. It has multiple egregious lies, which is appropriate because he’s a fraud. Back in September 2024 he falsified a bunch of benchmarks to hype up his open source model. Article is total dogshit. I should annotate it venturebeat.com/ai/reflectio...
Something Big Is Happening Something Big Is Happening Matt Shumer @mattshumer_ • Feb 10 Think back to February 2020. If you were paying close attention, you might have noticed a few people talking about a virus spreading overseas. But most of us weren't paying close attention. The stock market was doing great, your kids were in school, you were going to restaurants and shaking hands and planning trips.

Reflection 70B, a variant of Meta's Llama 3.1 open source large language model (LLM) - or wait, was it a variant of the older Llama 3? — that had been trained and released by small New York startup HyperWrite (formerly OthersideAI) and boasted impressive, leading benchmarks on third-party tests, has now been aggressively questioned as other third-party evaluators have failed to reproduce some of said performance measures.

One eensy weensy problem though, everyone! This was a "letter of intent" - it said so in the announcement! - and on NVIDIA's November earnings, it said that it "entered into a letter of intent with an opportunity to invest in OpenAl." It turns out the deal didn't exist and everybody fell for it! NVIDIA hasn't sent a dime and likely won't. A letter of intent is a "concept of a plan."

Hahaha this device is never going to release, or if it does it will become notorious for its shittiness, like if pets.com released the N-GAGE
Multiple people familiar with the plans said OpenAI and Ive were working on a device roughly the size of a smartphone that users would communicate with through a camera, microphone and speaker. One person suggested it might have multiple cameras. The gadget is designed to sit on a desk or table but can also be carried around by the user. The Wall Street Journal previously reported some of the specifications around the device. One person said the device would be “always on” rather than triggered by a word or prompt. The device’s sensors would gather data throughout the day that would help to build its virtual assistant’s “memory”. OpenAI and Ive are seeking to build a more powerful and useful machine. But two people familiar with the project said that settling on the device's "voice" and its mannerisms were a challenge. One issue is ensuring the device only chimes in when useful, preventing it from talking too much or not knowing when to finish the conversation - an ongoing issue with ChatGPT. "The concept is that you should have a friend who's a computer who isn't your weird AI girlfriend... like [Apple's digital voice assistant] Siri but better, " said one person who was briefed on the plans. OpenAI was looking for "ways for it to be accessible but not intrusive" OpenAI's device will be entering a difficult market. Friend, an AI companion worn as a pendant around your neck, has been criticised for being "creepy" and having a "snarky" personality. An Al pin made by Humane, a company that Altman personally invested in, has been scrapped. Still, OpenAI has been on a hiring spree to build its hardware business. Its acquisition of io brought in more than 20 former Apple hardware employees poached by Ive from his alma mater. It has also recruited at least a dozen other Apple device experts this year, according to LinkedIn accounts.
