Anthropic announced on Wednesday that it’s launching a new, very expensive subscription plan for its AI chatbot Claude: Max. An answer to OpenAI’s $200-a-month ChatGPT Pro tier, Max comes with higher usage limits than Anthropic’s $20-per-month Claude Pro subscription, as well as priority access to the company’s newest AI models and features. A bit confusingly, Max comes in two flavors with different price points and usage limits. There’s a $100-per-month Max tier with 5x higher rate limits than

OpenAI, like many AI labs, thinks AI benchmarks are broken. It says it wants to fix them through a new program. Called the OpenAI Pioneers Program, the program will focus on creating evaluations for AI models that “set the bar for what good looks like,” as OpenAI phrased it in a blog post. “As the pace of AI adoption accelerates across industries, there is a need to understand and improve its impact in the world,” the company continued in its post. “Creating domain-specific evals are one way t

Smartphones are hard to make. Like, really hard. So hard, in fact, that Apple's Tim Cook once admitted it takes 30,000 Chinese engineers overseeing some 700,000 workers just to make iPhone manufacturing economically feasible. Though the US has no such labor force, let alone engineering capacity, Donald Trump and his band of minions keep insisting that we could bring iPhone manufacturing home. That seems to be the most coherent sales pitch behind Trump's unprecedented tariffs, which many experts

The Crown introduced a proprietary lever escapement in 2015 — the Chronergy escapement. Even with ultra-optimized geometry like in the Chronergy system, any lever escapement has a few fundamental flaws. The most significant of which is the lever's inherent friction and, therefore, need for lubrication. Just by glancing at
