one of the most interesting things I've noticed lately is that the youth (under 21) - they... they love China? IDK how this happened. I'm not against it, don't get me wrong, but it's interesting to see such... love? For China? A vibe shift into "damn, I wish I were Chinese"
Why DeepSeek app won - cute whale instead of another cowardly overdesigned anus - zero pretentious PR - cute chain of thought - actually great model for free, no small-model-smell like with Geminis - Zoomers *hate* the USG and OpenAI and simp for 🇨🇳 - search - Claude was down … MoreLess

Anthropic's API is the most dogshit API I have ever had the displeasure of implementing into my products. I will be removing it from everywhere, instead using OpenRouter's much better alternative. Holy fuck can they they make a great model, but absolutely ruin API access. Wow.
yknow which models i never try out? the google ones. not until they're out of experimental. why? because through openrouter, they have an updatime percentage always in the low 30%. why offer it if it's unstable? let me pay for it and try the experimental ones out ffs
yeah honestly this Operator thing is amazing, I no longer have to sift through API documentation or dump it all into a huge context window hoping that it won't hallucinate an answer; now i just create a pastebin for it :)

PLEASE let me wake up to an hour-long (or however in-depth length I want it, make it set-able) X podcast based on everyone I follow This would be AMAZING.
I need a @grok feature that synthesizes the last 6–12 hours of content from the people I follow into a 30-minute podcast I can listen to on my way to work. cc @xai @TheGregYang
This confirms that what OpenAI has, it blows everything/everyone out of the water when it comes to showcasing capabilities, including Elon’s xAI. Otherwise they’d have done this with xAI.
Stargate to exclusively serve OpenAI, per FT.

this is the first time a deepseek model feels consistently good for me; even deepseek v3 was "good", not GOOD. it had a lot of moments of stupidity, like the copy-cat it is. r1 is the first time it's consistently giving amazing results with little correction.
yeah so i didn't think i'd ever say this but i prefer deepseek's r1 vs. anything else, except for o1 pro. it's replaced all my needs that sonnet 3.6, gpt 4o, or o1 were satisfying before. all for a fraction of the cost. and it's sooooo malleable...
o1 pro + deepseek's r1 just 1-shots every single programming feat I throw at it. doesn't matter how many steps or how rambling my voice recording to it is regarding what i want. it just gets it.
