Tested Grok 3, its “deepSearch” & “think” mode with premium+. First thought: they’re clearly manipulating the benchmarks. It’s not the best model by any stretch, especially in math & code. That much I can say for sure, so benchmarks in those areas don’t make much sense. XAI’s deep search is nowhere close to OpenAI’s deep research. In fact, I don’t think they’re even in the same category. XAI’s deep search is more like Perplexity’s but slightly better. That said, Grok 3 isn’t a bad model. It’s actually better than I expected—way better than Grok 2, but there’s nothing extraordinary about it. They also didn’t open-source it, so it doesn’t add anything meaningful to the ecosystem. Bonus: If you’re someone who wants to play with cutting-edge AI models & features, like models with chain-of-thought reasoning, grounded web search, Gemini 2 Pro, & the latest SOTA models before launch, with 2M-token context, all for free for personal, uou can use:

Working on something interesting, this time, I’m not alone but collaborating with an amazing team. I don’t want to spoil everything, but it’ll be a space on Nostr for premium content with built-in monetization feature & more. The goal isn’t just to build another app but to contribute something meaningful to the protocol. Soon!

Nostr Wallet Connect is too powerful, we really need proper protocols or best practices to protect everyday Lightning users. Developers must respect and follow those guidelines.

We have no idea about human like/type intelligence. We're not even close to replicating it, we're missing some fundamental things, we don't even know about.

Respect for Ye fans! It’s tough no matter your political stance.

Their main priority right now is, quite literally, building censorship systems for models. Not only that, but they also want other models to implement these systems. View quoted note →

The cost difference between the Gemini API and the Claude API. Performance differences are negligible; in fact, Gemini 2 Pro has a much larger context window than Claude and is significantly faster. Claude should have focused on this instead building censorship skynet.

Brothers Karamazov: "The man who lies to himself and listens to his own lie comes to a point that he cannot distinguish the truth within him, or around him, and so loses all respect for himself and for others."

What happened?

As much as I like Claude, it’s becoming increasingly clear that not only have they built one of the most heavily censored AIs, but they’re also developing censorship systems for other models. Its CEO has essentially become the poster boy for AI censorship. I really don’t want to support it anymore.

9 out of 10 people I meet daily know about Bitcoin, but almost none have ever heard of Lightning. In fact, when I tell them they can make payments in a split second, almost without any fees, it takes them a moment to process it. Some of the biggest complaints people have about Bitcoin have already been solved, and they don’t even realize it. We’re so early.

If you’re not a CS major but still want to understand the underlying mechanisms behind large language models, this video is for you. It is accessible to the general public while not dumbing down the technical aspects, which is crucial.
