I'd say that as OpenAI employee he's kinda biased on the topic

In what way is what he's saying wrong though? It makes him considerably more knowledgeable about the subject than the average Joe, and unfortunately for science, it's not like you're going to find an independent spherical researcher in the wild that exists without any bias.

I see quite outdated data. Anthropic listed with valuation 18B and latest round at 4b? Just to compare, their real latest round was 65b with valuation 965b.

yeah, just spotted the error, AI agents seem to be searching for news without adding keywords like "latest", I'm updating that, and changing some system prompts, also adding a fact checking agent, and restarting the server to run an imrpovment pipeline to update these profiles. Might take a while for it to finish running though, Il try to update stuff manually till its done.

Probably a good idea to just use CrunchBase's numbers until you have a plan for doing it yourself.

acessing crunchbase even if its the free version with AI agents is illegal since they have a paid API, so I need to manually get it, which is fine for now, but I eventually need to improve the pipeline.

Meaning Claude won't help you scrape it and you can't do it yourself? Lol.

hey just checked the pipeline after running, the anthropic profile looks better now. (I will roll out more updates in the next few days to keep improving accuracy)

It's yet another time when EU is killing our own possibilities to build real competition to US or Chinese tech.

And yet another time they will be thinking aloud in few year "what happened that we are fully dependent on USA?"

Also, new Medium 3.5 is far more expensive than previous Mistral models, and much more expensive than e.g. Deepseek

I tried it out on some dev tasks with their Mistral Vibe subscription, and the performance was pretty okay (okay, not great), both in regards to development and speed. Worse than Anthropic's models I'm used to but at 20 EUR per month it wasn't a bad deal - except that the 200k context size would more or less be a deal breaker in many cases.

Where do you sign up for that subscription?

I wanted to try out Mistral, but I fail to find anything like that even after creating an account

The other comment already mentioned that you get their subscription: https://mistral.ai/pricing/ they do say that you can try out their coding agent for free, but personally the Pro tier is pretty affordable too to try out for a month.

Then you can install their coding harness, I personally used the Python + uv option: https://mistral.ai/products/vibe/code/ if you don't have uv yet, you might have to install it too: https://docs.astral.sh/uv/ though I already use it for other projects. Oh and if on Windows, you probably want to do all of the installation inside of WSL, just so that file paths are the *nix variety, I've had issues otherwise with pretty much every coding harness, like OpenCode as well (across multiple models).

After that, you need an API key for your subscription, you can generate and copy it here: https://console.mistral.ai/codestral/cli that's also where you see the quota, though it seems to NOT refresh instantly, but more or less a few times a day.

Either way, happy coding!

Maybe on their pricing page?

Everything is more expensive than deepseek. They aren't frontier in intelligence but they are the frontier in cost per intelligence

People who don't ride trains also pay taxes for rail.

People who are not flying are also financing airports from taxes.

This is why butthurt "childless pay taxes for schools but not using them" is super stupid

> Did you ever work a job or were friends with people who did where tipping is a big part of the income?

In the EU people are paid fair salaries for their work, they don't have to beg for money from clients

It's LLMs all the way down

I missed this disclaimer about it being 100% AI-generated.

In one second I went from "looks cool" to "I don't want to touch it"

Why? It's not like LLMs can't generate solid code, and it's not like people don't guide them carefully to produce the code they want.

I guess you're assuming he just gave a simple prompt to build an app that wasn't checked in any way, but why?

Then you are assuming it wrong.

I just don't like AI generated stuff, that's it

So you have an irrational anti-progress bias. OK.

Let's not disingenuously put words in people's mouths. What if the bias is rational? What if it's not "anti-progress" but something else?

I'm not putting words in anyone's mouth, I'm stating my conclusion.

What else would the bias be? AI is a useful tool, to blanket 'not like' anything generated by AI seems ludditesque.

I fully agree with you.

I love the idea of open source, but we shouldn't say that something is bad just because it's closed source.

So you can, but don't want to.

yup
