#Netflix buying Warner Bros! Finally two universes collide. One of cinema’s oldest studios now belongs to a streamer. Theaters hold their breath…

GPT-4.5 is ready!

good news: it is the first model that feels like talking to a thoughtful person to me. i have had several moments where i've sat back in my chair and been astonished at getting actually good advice from an AI.

bad news: it is a giant, expensive model. we really wanted to launch it to plus and pro at the same time, but we've been growing a lot and are out of GPUs. we will add tens of thousands of GPUs next week and roll it out to the plus tier then. (hundreds of thousands coming soon, and i'm pretty sure y'all will use every one we can rack up.)

this isn't how we want to operate, but it's hard to perfectly predict growth surges that lead to GPU shortages.

a heads up: this isn’t a reasoning model and won’t crush benchmarks. it’s a different kind of intelligence and there’s a magic to it i haven’t felt before. really excited for people to try it!

Uncertainty often feels worse than bad news. De Berker et al. (2016) found that people expecting a small chance of an electric shock were more stressed than those certain they'd get one.

Telegram will start moderating private chats after CEO’s arrest https://t.co/QZWuDgqfrr via @Verge

[Alireza Fard @alex_fard]

This post isn't about the news of Telegram’s CEO Pavel Durov being arrested by French authorities for not adequately moderating content. It's about how almost every news report on the arrest calls Telegram an "encrypted messaging app":

The most ignorant people aren't those who know nothing, but those who know just a little. A little knowledge gives the false impression of understanding, which kills curiosity and closes the mind. You can't learn what you think you already know!
