"Your data is safe with us, trust me bro" /s

Want anyone at Harvards personal info?

How do you have that?

I dont know they trust me because they are stupid.

The fact that this conversation is public and anyone uses meta garbage is what's wrong with so many things


People generally reply to this with "He was making a point. He wasn't saying he couldn't be trusted, he was saying 'I could be anyone'"

I don't get it. I think he meant exactly how it looks on paper


Fine in isolation but then he proceeded to act in Dastardly ways for a decade.

Why is it fine in isolation? Should you not get exactly the pushback you'd expect from saying that? As a clear joke, maybe less. I don't think he was joking though

It's because people who create these use cases perceive this as a difficult and painful task - but how many people really think about their flights over the day? Pretty sure the majority of Meta users has not flight booked for the next 3 months. I can only assume that this is more seen as a showstopper. Look how difficult this is and how we solved it.

Shopping is another classic. I personally don't want to trust an AI agent with checkout. research is fine, but I don't want the AI to go on a shopping spree or Amazon added some subscription into their checkout flow and suddenly, I'm paying for Prime because my AI agent thought it's a good idea or just missed it.

It's not unheard of that Amazon bundles a subscription into your checkout. So I don't think it's too unrealistic.


Not to mention the adversarial risk. Prompt injection, LLM-maximized advertising, and just common scams are going to take so much money if these catch on.

handling end-to-end flight booking seems like a very good target use-case that if you can get right, implies that you got a lot of other things right. Just like how Amazon started off by selling books online.

Played the racing game but that was a pretty poor experience. Would have expected more specifically if it's shared on their release page.

Used JSFiddle years ago too. I barely touch these anymore. Google Trends shows JSFiddle lost the fight: https://trends.google.com/explore?q=codepen%2CJSFiddle&date=...


I was wondering that too. Google Trends shows the following story: * COVID basically doubled the traffic (everybody stayed home and crafted something) * AI hit and the interest was cut in half.

I think that makes sense. You are less fiddling around and only need CodePen when you are really stuck but AI solves many problems now.

The shift from sharing little HTML/CSS/JS components to a website builder is probably their answer to this problem. They want to position themselves to compete with a Loveable, Replit and others. It's probably not the same, a little more technical, but the direction definitely shifted.

related to that, OpenAI just dropped the 5h limit for the time being https://x.com/thsottiaux/status/2076365965915467978


to show that anybody could use it - even older people who are less tech experts.

they are trying to expand beyond their tech audience.


I would very much agree. Even the hand icon, the usage in the text field, and the sidebar style are 1:1 identical to Codex. It's a misleading title - it's not close the Claude Code.


BlueBrixx is becoming fairly popular in Germany right now. The sets look competitive to me:

still look insanely overpriced


if you have more than x seats, you have to use Enterprise pricing as far as I know which is pay as you go with a pool.


At that point, why wouldn't they just give their employees a corporate debit card and say "go and buy the subscription you want."? I suppose the enterprise plans come with additional controls and features? But are they worth it?
