First thoughts on o3 pro

As “leaked”, OpenAI cut o3 pricing by 80% today (from $10/$40 per mtok to $2/$8 - matching GPT 4.1 pricing!!) to set the stage of the launch of o3-pro ($20/$80, supporting an unverified community theory that the -pro variants are 10x base model calls with majority voting as referenced in their papers and in our Chai episode). o3-pro reports a 64% win rate vs o3 on human testers and does marginally better on 4/4 reliability benchmarks, but as sama noticed, the actual experience expands when you t

This AI Writing Detector Shows Its Work. For Me, It's a Step in the Right Direction

This article was written by an actual, flesh-and-blood human -- me -- but an increasing amount of the text and video content you come across online is not.

I built a large language model "from scratch"

A developer's journey through building an LLM from scratch, sharing key insights about tokenization, training, and the learning process of mastering AI fundamentals. Building a large language model from scratch# I’m a machine learning / A.I. hobbyist. The technologies fascinate me, and I can’t seem to learn enough about them. Sebastian Raschka’s book, Build a Large Language Model (From Scratch) caught my eye. I don’t recall how I stumbled on it, but I found it when it was still in early access
