Air2004 "While we may never know the true identity of the company said to have spent $500 million on Claude last month, the very scale of the overspend narrows it down to only the very largest corporations globally." Or a Now bankrupt one. Reply
ggeeoorrggee Air2004 said: Or a Now bankrupt one. Indeed. How much fun was the Friday company meeting after that move? "Good news! We're ready to ship! Bad news! We're bankrupt as of last week!" I have dabbled in some AI using an NVidia Spark which is a closed, limited sandbox, but I always wonder if these companies that use massive online AI services just don't have any "trade secret" internal code. How do they ensure that the AI system isn't tucking everything it sees away for inevitable re-use like an employee with no NDA? Also, the reverse worries me: if I give the AI agents a sufficiently complex and specific problem or I'm attempting to build a better mouse trap, how do I know that the agent isn't raiding the patent office to give me a solution that then results in me being on the hook for a patent violation? They've been trained on stolen — or, at best, inappropriately used — information so how can I trust what they present as a design solution? Reply
SirWired No, it wasn't Amazon. Xitter users are idiots. If it was Amazon, the news would not have been attributed to some unnamed "AI Consultant." Amazon does not need some outside consultant to evaluate their AI spending patterns. Reply
