Two big model drops on the same day prove my point from a couple of weeks ago, we are inching closer and closer to the death cross that turns the data centers dark and wipes out the Anthropic/OpenAI dreams of global domination.

Anthropic shipped Claude Fable 5.2 and Mythos 5.2, which are both faster, AND CHEAPER.

Meta shipped Muse Ember, which proves that SMALLER MODELS can do more and more of what we need.

Pay attention and remember my warning, when we have frontier performance on models small enough to live on consumer grade hardware, the bubble pops.

@jenvanlaar Indoor trampoline centers tend to do very well in area with urban clients. They rarely have shootings or “teen takeovers” that cause them to go out of business because law abiding customers stop going that. That almost never happens in places with urban residents

@StephenFleming I think it's more of an issue that all of the customers started wanting smashburgers because they saw everyone else eating them on social media and no one does anything for themselves anymore unless they saw the crowd doing it first

Has anyone actually received one of those $1 likes we were promised a couple of weeks ago?

I've been saying the same thing for a long time about Anthropic, and it's not even software. If you run a business, and you allow Anthropic or OpenAI into it, there's a good chance they're going to try to compete with you eventually, and they have to, because serving up models is a cash burning exercise. Eventually they will need to have an actual business that generates cash like Meta, Google, and X have.

@JamesMontemagno @code @github @Azure I've always enjoyed your content. I'm not loving this stache though

@LinusEkenstam @dreamina_ai wasn't The Expendables exactly this? Jam together a bunch of washed up action hero types and print money from NPCs?

@ak40fingers @darrencedavisjr @49ers The raiders fans are embarrassing. Fighting for a team with hat doesn’t care about the fans at all

@Jason Is this how I ended up married and divorced from a Chinese woman? It all makes sense now
