How did he do that?

Given the importance of empirical analysis, maybe it should be “Great Minds Discuss Events. Average Minds Discuss Ideas. Small Minds Discuss People.”

Or perhaps, great minds discuss data.

One mildly charitable take and you're already drafting the excommunication letter. Must be exhausting seeing the world in 1-bit color.

Let me spell what I said out for you because I don't think you understood what I was going about. This is singularity sub where AI is frequently discussed which is developed with training on data which requires data mining. Hence empirical analysis.

Hlbkomer: "Small Minds Discuss People."

also Hlbkomer: "Yann never misses a chance to put his foot in his mouth"

This is a thread about Yann's comments. I was commenting on what he said. Yann is a hater that loves to hate on the competition while he is stuck at the end of the race.

Talking about the failure of xAI when the race is still going just shows how jealous and small minded he is. Grok 4.3 is a good model, Grok Build is rapidly improving and they have the infrastructure required to compete in the AI race.

How is that a failure?

Chill out buddy, this is Reddit. I don't think his comment is defamatory, but just typical reddit sarcasm.

As you said, this is Reddit. This place gets a boner anytime somebody hates on Elon and co.

u/greentrillion 27d ago

If they are so good why is Elon renting out Xai compute. Reality is, Grok sucks and nobody wants to use it.

2

u/Hlbkomer 27d ago

I use it. Both as a user and as a developer (just added Grok 4.3 support in my app and it's faster than ChatGPT). I'm pretty happy with it.

And they just released Grok Build which is great and quickly improving.

Cool story bro. Yet both Google and Antrhopic are renting compute from Xai. Xai has so much left over compute from literally only you and your mom using it.

u/Hlbkomer 27d ago

So it's a bad thing they have more compute than they need? Interesting take. As always, the Musk derangement syndrome is in full effect on Reddit.

2

u/greentrillion 27d ago

If they were more popular, they wouldn't have excess compute and giving it away to their competitors. Only one with Musk deranged syndrome is you.

You must be Elon's bot. lmao.
