they realized that the audience they were pandering to with limitations/restrictions weren't using their releases to begin with
what changed with Google. They are literally killing it with the releases
i'm in a mental dilemma; - if openai doesn't release gpt 4.5 or whatever (their response to claude's sonnet 3.6 current dominance), i'm bearish on them BUT ALSO - if anthropic doesn't release something to outperform o1/an even better sonnet 3.6/opus 3.5, then im bearish too...
sometimes when I use gpt-4o by mistake, the response feels worse than what I'd have expected back in the gpt-3.5-turbo days
We still make beautiful things, they’re just so small you need an electron microscope to appreciate their structural beauty
We used to create such beautiful things, now we make rap songs about drugs and pu$$y.

Thanks for reaching out. Do you mind if I share this email on social media to gauge the reaction from our community?

I am Alexandra from Bending Spoons, the biggest European app developer and publisher.

I know what I am going to say may sound crazy and catch you off guard. How ridiculous would it be to discuss Bending Spoons potentially acquiring Obsidian?

Obsidian actually listens to its users, which has fostered a tight-knit vibrant community. We like products with strong fundamentals and would love to explore the possibility of being part of Obsidian's journey. Do you hate the idea? Let me know if you are available for a short call to discuss more about it.

To be clear, we're for the long term. We'd truly appreciate being on your radar and building a connection.
Still the case to this day I gauge this by which model I use for writing and coding in Cursor (without doing the usage-based pricing BS regarding trying to use o1 models in Cursor) So yeah sonnet is still king
Cant believe OAI has let sonnet 3.5 be the best (not inference scaled, but even that in many areas) model on the market for so long
