@thsottiaux The “thinking” trace like claude code is missing. Not the raw reasoning trace - but the “thinking” transcript view which shows the approach the agent is taking. Helpful in steering.

Also the “premium” seat for team plans with higher limits. I dont see that option.

@roenelteck @googlegemma Pls lmk if u find a fix for this.

Who’s Afraid of Chinese Models?

Everyone is worried about Chinese models, but the frontier labs will be fine; we need to enable open U.S. alternatives.

Just discovered this gem which is not obvious at all! This should not be the default. It is not safe to enable uploading of user’s data on hosted service by default without explicit actions.

Thankfully my agent instructions had mentioned to not upload any personal data.

Anthropic is kneecapping itself by holding onto its belief that they know better for its users. I had zero problems with ChatGPT Sol 5.6 to work with my healthcare data and I wanted to try out fable with analysis of MRI images. What I got instead from Claude is a big fat thumbs down justified by “safety”.

This is steering away an entire industry of healthcare that is important enough to get gains from advanced AI immediately.

Thank you @thsottiaux for not gatekeeping healthcare.

TIL that we really don’t know what 99% of our DNA does.

I was surprised to learn that studies claiming low-dose radiation is harmful are of very poor quality and that, based on current evidence, low-dose nuclear radiation may not actually be dangerous.

It is tempting to treat this as a classical "replication crisis" story. But to me, this is also an example of academia's ideological bias. Since the 70s at least, academia has been much more sympathetic to "degrowth" type arguments and has consistently been biased towards producing evidence that's in their favour.

The reality is that studies with a slight "right-wing bias" of similar poor quality would not have made it through the review process. Obviously, no poor quality study should make through the process, but it is nonetheless interesting to consider what the ideological slant in terms of rigour of review causes.

The crisis of trust we are seeing in institutions of higher education is not only due to the poor quality of some of the studies through, but also the clear ideological slant.

I think you should read for yourself more about the nature of these studies:
