U.S. Department of Energy Launches the Genesis Open Models Initiative

> China has basically commoditized LLMs What do you mean by "basically"? Why are Anthropic's and OpenAI's annualized revenue about $50B each? LLMs need massive amounts of compute to compete, so I wouldn't claim that the great (and leading, and likely to continue to lead) LLMs are commodities end-to-end , even if the non-executing-at-scale LLMs files and IP are commoditized. The execute, the compute, that is what breathes life into the model, which is otherwise weak or dead.

Oracle bans AI-generated code from OpenJDK

You still spend all your time troubleshooting the reinvented wheels even if AI writes it because you won’t know the edge cases til you hit them. Then you modify the lib, re-release, and update all your apps, but now look where all your time is spent. The assumption you make is the classic LLM mistake of thinking writing code === building software. To cite your example SQL has had its tires kicked a lot it’s seen things you can’t even imagine thanks to being used millions of times by millions of people. It’s hard to just replicate all that iteration, learning, mastery, and process. If you reinvent it, users will encounter the dumbest bugs over and over and over. Sure you’ll fix them, but you’re now embarking on this big thing that SQL and others already did. If you love the problem space d…

This is a friendly reminder from a grouchy old fart that 1. You are the engineer of record on all of your commits. 2. As the engineer of record, you have a certain duty of care with regards to code quality. 3. If you are not signing your commits, you are not providing reasonable provenance and instead tossing your name around in a way that anyone can replicate with impunity.

> not your $100/month.. This is made brutally obvious by anthropics customer support for people with such accounts.

Managing AI Coding Costs at Scale

Only if opencode uses the agent sdk/Claude -p June 15 changes would be the keyword to check, but at least in anthropics case it's... Complicated

I like the transparency of its reasoning, and I agree with you, OpenAI/Anthropic/Google should show the reasoning traces as well.

Except Fable won’t be costing $100 for enterprises that will be considering the Chinese models. If $100 Claud Max subscription works for you, then great. But you have to remember your pricing is subsidized by enterprises that pay hundreds of thousands of dollars each month, if not more, to Anthropic. For those companies, a Chinese model that can cut their AI spend from $1M/month to $200k suddenly seems attractive. And unfortunately for the American tech industry, the valuation is based off those enterprise deals, not your $100/month Claude Max subscription.

What happens if an entire class of workers loses faith in their careers

I am not excited about tech anymore. I dread it to be honest. I was an early engineer at a AI company that got acquired. From that and related stock (golden handcuffs) was able to retire a couple of years ago. There were some tech problems that I wanted to investigate and I took a bunch of classes. Fun. I loved my career. Wow have my feelings changed. I'm disgusted. It's a moral disgust. The scene turns me off SO MUCH. Just a recent tidbit: I think it is Anthropic that is buying old (some antique, vintage) books, scanning them, then pulping them. There is no restraint at this point. Whether it's Meta and their pervert glasses and child exploitation. Or google trashing their own search. One thing that has turned my stomach is how management has acted after discovering they could trash thei…

Should AI labs be treated like the owners of dangerous animals?

If an Anthropic employee did this, he would be in jail.

Oracle bans AI-generated code from OpenJDK

Oracle is so far into AI that if OpenAI doesn’t absolutely explode with revenue, fast, Oracle is in a world of shit like they’ve never seen.

2027 memory capacity is reportedly sold out

Also supply contracts exist which is what started all this: OpenAI signed huge orders for most of the market all at once. No one had any chance to properly include that information in their pricing or bidding.

Just looked into some Nemotron stats Looks like on < https://arena.ai > agent arena (grouped by lab) Nvidia is 15/15 (much worse than Thinky and Mistral) and on text arena it's 18/27 On < https://openrouter.ai/models?order=most-popular > I definitely see usage though (probably mostly cause Nemotron 3 Ultra is free) the grouped order is DeepSeek, Tencent, Xiaomi, OpenAI, Z.ai, Nvidia

Responding to the next frontier of critical cyber capabilities

Interesting.. I just went through the process and passed KYC, but was told my OpenAI that I was rejected from the program. Guessing some device check rejected me.

Responding to the next frontier of critical cyber capabilities

You're right. But I used it specifically because of the open letter calling for open models — or at least for not banning them — which went around recently and represented a very large number of tech and AI companies. Anthropic seemed the only exception.

Qwen3.8 Max now ranked as the best overall model by agentic index

That’s the thing, the difference is so small that you won’t be wasting an hour per day with a model that’s 95% as good. In fact, you’d notice zero difference most of the days and when you do, maybe it’s an extra 30 minutes. And the price difference is far greater than $2k/month once the API cost is no longer subsidized. Would your employer be paying an extra $20k/month to Anthropic if it can save you 2 hours a month?
