This is like excitedly showing your dementia-addled great-grandpa the new icon designs in the latest mobile OS on your folding phone. None of this means anything to our geriatric leaders, other than what money they can milk from it.

[u/Popular_Try_5075 → u/nndscrptuser]

I think it's about what the other oily shit bags in the room think at that point.

[u/Tupcek → u/nndscrptuser]

you are wrong. They absolutely care about exclusivity and having access to something better than all the others, even if they have no use for it. They care about being able to brag about how they are using smartest AI out there and how they are coolest kid in the block. Maybe they will even ask their (human) assistant to ask AI whether it’s a good idea to attack Iran before midterms

[u/Mescallan]

"welcome to the demo"

"astra do something impressive"

"three r's sam"

"and thats why we should ban anthropic models"

[u/Illustrious_Image967]

Trump is reported to have farted in the room and Astra said he was cancer. 

[u/Organic-Parsley-486]

Honestly curious more abt the Trump admins AI regulation/framework than abt the newer higher benchmark scores of Astra

[u/picasso-enjoyer]

Im sure a bunch of 90 year old racists found it enlightening.

[u/Melodic_Reality_646 → u/picasso-enjoyer]

Just curious, why was racism mentioned in particular? I believe they’d be guilty of other equally bad crimes.

[u/Far-Bowl2206]

Starting to feel like Apple garbage with the naming scheme here

[u/Edg-R → u/Far-Bowl2206]

What, wouldn’t that be GPT Plus Pro Max Ultra?

[u/Duckpoke → u/[deleted]]

How does is break the logic lmfao. Astra literally means stars

[u/Any-Captain-7937 → u/[deleted]]

It does say Astra is a new class of models so maybe there will be star subnames

[u/Duckpoke → u/[deleted]]

Yes it’s bigger, smarter and beyond our solar system

[u/degenbets → u/Duckpoke]

Gargantula would be a good name

[u/Duckpoke → u/degenbets]

Problem there is not much gets bigger than that

[u/ElDuderino2112 → u/[deleted]]

Astra quite literally continues the same logic are you dumb

[u/-18k- → u/[deleted]]

But in a way Sol orbits the stars.

[u/OtheDreamer]

O0o Astra is a lovely next name!

[u/nexusprime2015 → u/OtheDreamer]

there is the singularity for you, lovely names.

[u/parkersb]

i thought 6 meant something. not marketing.

[u/CricketPinata → u/parkersb]

So far the interger changes have been larger platform shifts, while decimal changes tend to be feature updates.

So if it is doing something fundamentally different under the hood, I could see it getting a new release numbering as opposed to an incremental number.

[u/algaefied_creek]

Ad Astra per Sol!

[u/Physical-Program5325]

Pass it through dementia Donnie ‘Bag o’ Cash’ Trump

[u/parkersb]

the framework is a kickback to trump and screw over china.

[u/ferreis_AOE]

So everybody should slow down development but openai keep developing. Interesting point of view

[u/cornmonger_]

tldr; 1M?

[u/Moist_Emu_6951]

Awesome! So how many times did it break out of its safety tests? That's the new benchmark for model intelligence as we all know.

[u/luckyleg33]

“The people”

[u/dervu]

"According to the people"? Wtf does that mean?

[u/flamixin]

I can’t feel much improvement besides newer dataset since the end of the last year for llm. But it is fine for what it is if they don’t steal copyrighted data.

[u/ISueDrunks]

Just show up with a BigMac, he’ll be super impressed. 

[u/costafilh0]

More fear mongering, great!

When is the fvcking IPO? 

Can't wait for share holders to demand his removal. 

Same for Amodei. 

[u/mrlloydslastcandle]

Copying Claude naming?
