[quasi saddle]

at least frank went into the settings and gave me this

you are just trying to "reproduce" something on your own comet, even though u arent having the same problem

[dry kestrel]

I'm on a new profile, no custom settings or anything

[quasi saddle]

i assume u also arent having the issue where your perplexity model starts spewing the same stuff twice or three times in a row in a single prompt?

[dry kestrel]

Gemini has done similar things before

[quasi saddle]

yet u would say that "it must be the prompt!" instead of wondering if perhaps something's bugged on my end

[quasi saddle]

well at least there you admit that it wasn't the prompt

[dry kestrel]

huh?

What are you on about

[quasi saddle]

point is it's clearly something on my end, and it's clearly a settings issue

that's what im on about

it isnt just "the prompt"

u cant just reproduce what's clearly a setting issue

when u dont have the same setting on or the same issue in general

when u try doing that and then make a statement like "It literally does not control my browser" it looks a lot like ur trying to call me a liar

but why would i waste half an hour of my time on here to lie about something??

[naive sage]

Because somethings even Extended Thinking models need to take breaks.

[dry kestrel]

I couldn't even find the setting

What section was this under in settings?

[quasi saddle]

dude, my point is you genuinely aren't helpful with any of the inputs you're giving, you "reproducing" the same prompt as me and then saying "It literally does not control my browser" doesn't help me in the slightest, and it's annoying that you're trying to argue about it and then also proceed to call me drunk

[dry kestrel]

1. I didn't know it was configurable in settings
2. I do not understand how you came to the conclusion of me calling you a liar.

[quasi saddle]

i didnt come to the conclusion of you lying 🤦‍♂️

i came to the conclusion of you accusing me of lying

and on top of that you're calling me drunk just because you're jumping the gun and thinking you're smarter than everyone else

genuinely gives off that vibe that you think you're superior when you respond to a question in such a manner

really ruins the environment in here

[dry kestrel]

I'm not, I make mistakes as well

I genuinly still cannot find the settings menu

[quasi saddle]

thanks a ton though for your input @heavy portal , you actually tried to help me

[dry kestrel]

that Frank pointed to

I've been looking through settings for 20+ minutes now

There's nothing under comet://settings/assistant that allows me to change what Frank pointed to and I think I've gone through all the other menus as well

Closest thing I could find was this toggle

[heavy portal]

it may have been removed a few versions ago, used to be a hidden Settings/Privacy toggle that a URL would go to it.

[dry kestrel]

I see, I was starting to go crazy

[heavy portal]

it worked too, if was set to "Always" it would go back to asking and offereing a few options one of which was "allow control this one time"

[dry kestrel]

So it's not actually a configurable setting in the latest update

[dry kestrel]

I remember seeing something similar months ago when I was messing around with settings

[heavy portal]

it does that for me every time it wants access

[dry kestrel]

Even now?

[heavy portal]

yes

[dry kestrel]

that's interesting

[heavy portal]

that was while I was at reddit.com

[dry kestrel]

mine just does it right away

[heavy portal]

I haven't toggled it, but it could be this:

[dry kestrel]

hmm, perhaps the setting just stayed after they removed the option to change it

[dry kestrel]

I've always had this toggle on

[heavy portal]

oddly though, mine is enabled and it still asks

[dry kestrel]

Like I remember seeing this a while back, and now I just never get this

[heavy portal]

maybe toggling it off brings up a more elaborate dialog like "Always", "Just once", etc?

I don't want to experiment 🙂

[dry kestrel]

I just tried on a new profile + new account

and I see this...

[heavy portal]

yeah, that's the one, there's a way to get that back

[dry kestrel]

question is how

i've gone through the entire settings menu about 10 times now

[heavy portal]

someone posted a URL on this Discord a few months ago with something to toggle to get that back, haven't found it yet.

[dry kestrel]

let me try finding it

[heavy portal]

either way, probably should be posted to https://discord.com/channels/1047197230748151888/1393681130842226698 to expose that toggle in settings.

it'd be some work, but could compare comet://settings/ between your two sessions

[dry kestrel]

tried searching for comet://settings/ in #☄️│comet-general and couldn't find much

there's a lot more results in this channel though

[heavy portal]

It wasn't a comet://settings/ thing though, this was an actual toggle button:

[dry kestrel]

oh..

[heavy portal]

though it's entirely possible a bad-named comet://settings/ is what gets changed

[dry kestrel]

I haven't found any differences in the setting menu

between my 2 profiles

[serene sand]

don't think Berd meant any real harm by it, but words can land harder than we intend, and it's important we're mindful of that with each other

let's reset and keep this a space where everyone feels respected. we're all good here ✌️

[heavy portal]

I think I found it, but it looks different now - #☄️│comet-general message

[dry kestrel]

toggle was removed unfortunately

[heavy portal]

instead of that toggle, it goes to a Max page

bummer

[dry kestrel]

The current page is just for Perplexity Assistant for your inbox

the browser control section appears if you are using another browser

[heavy portal]

At least we can sleep well tonight 🛌

[cold sequoia]

On Pro any time i do anything with claude it counts toward a 200 "searches" a week? that's like if i have a space with a file any time i send a message?

[dry kestrel]

Yes. - learn more about limits here #💬│general message

[heavy portal]

That appears to be the case when using something other than "Best" though it has a recharge time - #💬│general message

[cold sequoia]

thanks and there's still no way to know when something is resetting or how close you are to the threshold or anything? querying the model just has it kind of argue with me about it and that the Best model gpt 4.1 can handle something then it fails and then says it didn't fail then argues it can do it and fails again.

Thank you!

Guess im underestimating my searches then

[viral canyon]

I had an issue, if is not a problem, can u help me please? I'm trying to sync PC but only let me create sync instead of usig the one I alredy have

[dry kestrel]

Likely a bug, I'd try first creating a new sync code on your PC, then deleting that and seeing if it will allow you to input your existing one

also please post in #1393681130842226698 if that doesn't work

[viral canyon]

I tryed it

but...

hahaha

I mean wtf

[dry kestrel]

Maybe check if you are on the latest update. Or try reinstalling Comet

[viral canyon]

I just factory reset my PC, is fresh install, and also just in case reinstalled comet

[dry kestrel]

hmmm, super weird. what happened after creating a new sync code then deleting it?

[viral canyon]

that, don't even let me create a new code

[dry kestrel]

Oh...

[viral canyon]

I did what I could but don't know how to document that correctly

I'll try to install chrome then redownloading comet

[modern nexus]

i cant find how many promps i get to ask comet (with broswer takeover) as a max subscriber? anyone know, it seems pretty vague on their website

[sullen breach]

using Pro to create a report and have had success but would also like to download this report but havent found the method as yet, any suggestions ?

[dry kestrel]

you can download it

unfortunely my options are more limited

are you using the web version?

did you do normal search or deep researc

How long does it take for them to reply

This is a clear cut case

[quasi saddle]

forever, i emailed them 10 days ago about credits and an ai bot responded and said that they're working on it and will get back to me very soon, yet i've gotten nothing, i even emailed them a second time asking for human assistance and got nearly the same response.

i doubt i'm going to hear back, it's just so frustrating atp

I BROKE UP with Gemini now
Comment by MullingMulianto
The gemini RLHF team has been fucking up big time these few weeks. The llm is incapable of reasoning properly since a week ago

So while consulting him about how to configure backup for the hard drive, I corrected him twice about the photo that I sent him and then I corrected him another time so basically it ended with him asking if he can help more and I just said “nope I’m moving to Claude.”
Gemini:

“Based on the image, your protection is on, but it is currently allocated about 60GB (based on the blue slider’s position). You should leave it as is, click OK, and just create the restore point.”

• Me:

“It says ‘Current Usage: 0 bytes’. What are you talking about?”

• Gemini:

“You’re right, my mistake. I misread the UI. Currently, there is no restore point. Do not change anything in that window, just press OK and then click ‘Create’…

@signal hamlet As far as I remember, you’re one of the devs.
Github connectors do not work for days now after the new update, we cant get any info from support if they even received that information, as well as we dont know how much time will it take to fix it. Thats a big problem, many people use Pro subscription that way. (Many reactions and comments in the report-bug section)
Can you take a look and update us on that? I’m not doubting you will fix it, would be lovely either way to know approximately when it happens and that the team knows of the issue

@dry kestrel didn't expect to see step 3.5 flash here. I guess they have come a long way.

Glm 5 at third spot btw

[covert charm]

I've been using Perplexity quite a bit lately when researching new libraries or technical topics.
What I like is being able to quickly jump between sources without opening a dozen tabs. It’s been especially useful when trying to understand unfamiliar frameworks or APIs.
Still end up verifying things in the docs, but it definitely speeds up the initial research phase.

[heavy portal]

I would hope Perplexity Computer doesn't do this, sounds like a waste of credits.

[dry kestrel]

it's a pretty good model considering the size

[half mauve]

Yea i expected that tbh

guys i think we have to wait it out, for the past hour I've done all this
Here's everything you've done to try to fix the Comet Assistant panel:

Restarted Comet – fully quit and relaunched the browser

Logged out and back into Perplexity inside Comet

Disabled extensions and relaunched

Deleted and fully reinstalled Comet

Deleted Comet's local data folders from Mac Library:

~/Library/Application Support/Comet

~/Library/Caches/com.perplexity.comet

Deleted Respondus LockDown Browser (the suspected root cause)

Checked Privacy & Security permissions (Screen Recording, Accessibility) in System Settings

Restarted your Mac (full restart after all of the above)

[hushed lotus]

Yeah

Yes, that's what I did

[shell frost]

10k burned in 1 day

[heavy portal]

Also take a look at NotebookLM

I've used the two together, Perplexity to find sources to load into NotebookLM

[cyan tartan]

Yeah same. And I add claude to the question that makes the prompts for Perplexity lol. I found that having very detailed prompts with claude was giving me so much better results researching with pplx.

[zenith notch]

Perplexity max is too costly 💸

[tame current]

way too costly

i couldn't afford it at 80% off lol

[cold sequoia]

Thanks for this. That is exactly what I was looking for.

[worthy iron]

Yes, the credits are too low, I burned through 10k in 4 hours

[south grail]

hello

are there no credits in pro version of perplexity?

[worthy iron]

No, only Max

[jade breach]

Is there anyway to get it to go down to the start of a prompt again rather than the end of it?

[south grail]

I have perplexity pro for the past 5 months. got it when i upgraded my cellular plan. Is there any benefit of Perplexity where i can use it? I do have claude, gpt and gemini subscriptions as well. Just trying to think where it can outperform others? Is there any niche use case of perplexity?

[wintry pine]

why did perplexity suddenly stop letting me allow it to control my browser and open stuff up?

[subtle bloom]

My account keeps automatically generating a lot of threads for product comparisons or selections.Any one can check reason?

[wintry pine]

anyone know what's up with this? it was literally doing this a few hours ago

i WANT it to take control of my browser and do the task for me...

[glacial lava]

Is the automated task for iPhone not working for you guys

Or is it just me

?

[wintry pine]

dont have it on iphone so i wouldnt know unfortunately :/

[glacial lava]

I mean is it working for your device

Seems like it isn’t either it was working earlier

[wintry pine]

is automated task the thing i showed?

[glacial lava]

Yeah something is wrong

It’s just using perplexity search

[wintry pine]

its selling the bag

[glacial lava]

Yeah

100%

Disappointed just started using it now it’s gone

Im basically using Perplexity again

[wintry pine]

real bro, i got comet like 2 days ago

[glacial lava]

Fixing to delete it I guess ain’t work it no more lol

That whole feature was the only reason it’s the best part

[left stream]

learn the path of penetration testing they said, it would be fun they said.

[sly musk]

do u use ida?

thats all ik about penetration

[austere monolith]

[austere monolith]

lol, well thats just AD pentesting basic path

[austere monolith]

[chilly quest]

I didn't receive the verification code via email when logging in from a new computer. What should I do?

[clever flax]

Does claude code have the same?

[slim garden]

Computers are so expensive! One project cost me $200 in credits, and I spent $1000 in 10 days.

[clever flax]

There may be ways to optimize, probably all previous files consumed more tokens in that thread

The more context the pricier I guess

[clever flax]

If project that costed 200$ will bring you like 1000$ then it is worth it, innit?

[slim garden]

This opaque method of deducting points raises many questions.

[clever flax]

You can have your tokens tab in a side window and see how didferent tasks consume tokens, one task may consume tokens. It is pretty visible

Your "purchase tokens" panel gets updated pretty dynamically

[clever flax]

How much did you manage to earn by spending 1000$ in tokens?

[willow adder]

wow, the new limits are really low, sad

[wicked juniper]

What are perplexity's limits now? I bought it 2 months ago

[serene sand]

#💬│general message

[sonic rock]

whats the point of paying that shit now? cant even use normal model, "best" uses worst model as possible...

[vestal mesa]

Yo

[humble swift]

We are cooked

Perplexity for the win though I won’t use Claude

[marsh bane]

Yo

[gray prawn]

Claude racing to be probably one of the first of the Big 3 (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google) to likely eventually get it where Claude can eventually have full control over the computer

Perplexity definitely got a nice niche with Computer in that they can “be the Claude Cowork, but local * ”

“ * cloud options also provided”

[green crystal]

no peep from google and oai yet about computer use like claude

[gray prawn]

Google seems to be chasing phone/mobile integration and OpenAI seems to just be trying to survive atp lol

[green crystal]

nah they're focused on codex

like hardcore focused on it

[hard basin]

yeah cause developers are the only people who care to pay for AI

that's why perplexity won't survive, they can't offer anything for coding because they don't have what it takes

[humble swift]

Google is focused on adding Gemini to everything they have, like apps and other services. OpenAI is, I would say, yes, it’s trying hard not to die. When it got launched, there was no competition; now there is so much that it is not the same anymore. It’s also losing money, so that’s affecting it. There are 100s of AI chatbots now, some better, some worse, so yes.

[hard basin]

openai doesn't need to try not to die it's the most popular LLM out there among consumers

it does need to make money which is actually the hard part

[humble swift]

they are forcing daily users to pay to do day-to-day work now its annoying hence i switched over

[hard basin]

what are you talking about

[humble swift]

the recent controversy really affected it with 295% deletions according to online sources

[humble swift]

ChatGPT pushing for payment since it needs money

[hard basin]

who is forcing users to pay to do day to day work

chatgpt is free

codex is also free

[gray prawn]

Yeah Gemini/Google is probably gunna own the crown of just general integration with everything because Google’s product suite is so massive.

OpenAI stretched themselves too thin trying to do everything at once and allowed others to steal niches from them

[hard basin]

google can also afford to lose more money than everyone else

which is the most important part

[gray prawn]

You’re naive to think ChatGPT won’t eventually reach Claude free tier levels of rate limiting or just be adware

[humble swift]

Have you not seen the limits? Like 10 prompts and wait 5-6 hours, and they made a "Go" version for $8 a month. If you add a file to your chat, you could immediately be locked and on cooldown.

[hard basin]

well yeah it costs them a ton of money

[hard basin]

when did I say I don't think it'll happen

how am i naive

[humble swift]

the rate limits are unpredictable, also I dont use claude so I dont know much, I have used ChatGPT, Grok, Perplexity and Gemini

[hard basin]

well it's based on your usage of course it's unpredictable

[humble swift]

mostly coding and assignment help like i used to upload screenshots for troubleshooting sometimes

[hard basin]

okay, can't be predicted like I said

also like I don't know why you expect them to give you unlimited usage

they need to actually make money

[glacial lava]

Hey anyone know what going on with the automation feature Ik it was experimental?

[gray prawn]

The whole who is forcing users to pay for day to day work comment when ChatGPT and all of them are doing exactly that

You cannot reliably use the free tier for work because the models you get shoved down into after a few messages have such poor performance and context windows (ChatGPT’s client has massively smaller context windows than underlying model has on api)

[hard basin]

that's me asking a question

because he wasn't clear

[gray prawn]

Only 27k context window for free (when downgraded to instant)

[gray prawn]

Ah my apologies then for the misunderstanding

[humble swift]

I am not expecting unlimited but rather a predictable limit like everyone 20 prompts you get cut off and need to wait for a couple hours not more like 4-6 hours

[hard basin]

no worries

[hard basin]

why do you expect that

[humble swift]

Easier to work with like I was in the middle of a question and the chat got locked so I had to basically just open a new chat and re-explain everything

[hard basin]

no I mean why do you expect them to offer that for free

[slim wind]

is comet assistant broken for anyone else?

it shows a blank screen when i click it

[humble swift]

I feel like putting everything behind a paywall isn’t going to help it will eventually draw people away from it not everyone wants to pay for something like there are some necessary things that cost money I don’t think AI subscriptions should be priced and slowly forcing people to pay to use their app

[hard basin]

well how else will they make money

they're losing money even on people who pay for the $200 plan

[wintry pine]

is perplexity not working at all rn?

when i open a new browser in comet, it just loads infinitely

but going to other websites works...

[green crystal]

not when actual implementation of gemini is so sketchy most of the time and the model either hallucinates allot or forgets its tools or it doesnt have the tools in the first place

i'd say oai is the same as anthropic in terms of how their products are spread out

until oai starts wanting to make their own gmail, office suite, cloud storage service etc etc

they're not stretched thin

[humble swift]

Also noticed that Gemini and ChatGPT are giving more inaccurate information, I keep having to re prompt it to check again like in counting words/characters

[green crystal]

with reasoning turned on?

[humble swift]

Tailored to people who are willing to pay instead of using a hidden paywall tactic.

[humble swift]

I don’t remember, all I know was it was the free version on both

[green crystal]

yeah no

chatgpt free doesnt use reasoning

[torn laurel]

hi

[green crystal]

if its relatively simple you can use the think button to use 5.4 mini

as for gemini just switch it to thinking and it should be able to just count characters
gemini 3 flash can atleast do that lol

[naive sage]

I think it used to allow some on the Free tier (though it was a very small amount), until the 5.3/5.4 rollout, then it removed the reasoning models from Free completely.

[green crystal]

nah there is
have to toggle the think button

they even mentioned that free has limited 5.4 mini

if you toggle it

[naive sage]

Ah, you have to log on to use it now, though... I see.

[dapper heath]

oh ok

[surreal nexus]

i noticed that the option to choose between the 3 ways of answers is gone. Think it was search, research and smth else? since when is this or is it just hidden somewhere?

[gray prawn]

Hahahahahahahahahah not even close

OpenAI has Video generation, image generation, direct TTS models, etc.

Anthropic has solely focused on fine tuning their models for agentic applications and coding. They have no video generation models, no image generation models, etc

And OpenAI is prepping to expand into the physical world as well with their secretive pen or dime products

[gray prawn]

OpenAI themselves begs to differ. They’re racing to cut down on little side adventures

https://futurism.com/artificial-intelligence/openai-cutting-projects

[warm island]

OpenAI is going for enterprise now, thats where they can get a market hold.

[naive sage]

That's what most companies are doing, even nvidia ditched the consumer market. Truth is, most spending happens in the top 10% of earners and in bigger businesses. Spending has diminished for most others (K-shaped growth). That's a common preceding situation for a societal collapse type event of some sort.

[green crystal]

not front end facing products atleast
probably their stuff like automated research and such gets pauzed

because those arent used by anyone lol

just them

[brittle dagger]

they are doing, what the shareholders are telling them to do.

laughing, because you don't know how public companies operate?

[green crystal]

hm they arent public yet tho

[brittle dagger]

it's the same people/organizations. vOv

[green crystal]

though its a good thing if they're putting more resources into competing products instead of inhouse projects

[warm island]

With their $20B profit but $850B validation

[brittle dagger]

the money's definitely not coming from us.

[green crystal]

that suck up allot of manpower and time

[green crystal]

it is
to slow down the burn rate of cash

[brittle dagger]

Sorry for being out of the loop, but what is it they are doing?

I'd not think they actually care about the money and they all say usually doesn't align with what they do, or the reasons why they're doing things.

[brittle dagger]

No, it is not. Our money is insignificant in comparison.

[green crystal]

true but they still see it as important because it shows their potential to be one day profitable

[brittle dagger]

that's fair.

though i really don't think that's the goal here.

[green crystal]

otherwise they wouldnt push hard to try and tap into the free users with ads no?

[brittle dagger]

money from ads is generally insignificant. ads are survaillance (never forget that it's a survaillance industry), gathering data about the user, which then gets sold in packages.

i really don't think they aim at ever being profitable. not with these stacks of money for building it all up. by then, fiat currencies have hyperinflated away

and they all must know that.

i mean that in regards to making back all that invested money. that's never going to happen.

it was you, who mentioned how openai achieving 200+ gigawatt power usage makes it feel dystopian, wasn't it?

well ... the world already is extremely dystopian and all evidence suggest that they're all deliberately working against our best interests.

in fact ... all these language models are probably the biggest pile of evidence, that people are seen as just cattle and treated as cattle, because they are cattle.

ah well.

[gray prawn]

It’s the only hope they got left

[clever flax]

It's not the money that is valuable, but the time he dedicated

[green crystal]

its not their stacks of money so they cant just keep it lol
every startup is trying to become profitable

[green crystal]

codex usage by devs and people using chatgpt for work etc

claude has their compute limit as their biggest downside

im surprised they arent pushing it hard to expand

[gray prawn]

Correct and they’re racing to get that market share back. Claude owns 73% of enterprise share, compared to just last year where ChatGPT held enterprise share

In a single year it inverted right from underneath them

[green crystal]

yeah and now codex pushes them back into it
claude code got its marketshare earlier

[naive sage]

Most just try to be bought out, there are some who speculate Microsoft might buy OpenAI if it isn't able to be successful a few years down the line.

That's the way it worked when it was cheap to borrow money, anyway

[gray prawn]

Mhm. Now we just wait and see if they budge

[naive sage]

(i.e. the 'free money' economy, which both Japan and the US try to shift away from)

[gray prawn]

They can’t be bought out in the traditional sense since they’re worth way too much but what could happen is they go under/bankrupt and then get acquired that way

-# also likely by Microsoft lol

[green crystal]

in terms of how oai is doing i'd say they're in a good position with how their products just work for daily real world work
claude too but holy moly its expensive and doesnt have great rate limits

[naive sage]

Valuations are reflective of expectations and results... if those results don't pan out in a few years, then that valuation won't track.

[green crystal]

gemini i wouldnt trust with anything important

[gray prawn]

Claude is definitely not for the average person. The pricing is not that big of a deal to these multibillion dollar companies

[gray prawn]

Gemini gunna hallucinate when I say “make me a birthday card” and say “signing you up for the army”

[gray prawn]

Indeed

[green crystal]

gemini as strategic targeting system would have the missiles make a U turn and hit the launcher

and then proceed to write a 10 page apology

[naive sage]

I thought all commands that have the capacity to inflict harm require human oversight/approval.

[green crystal]

im joking lol
but gemini really cant seem to accurately juggle with data at all

[naive sage]

Assuming you mean in large context scenarios? It is strange that Claude is still the leader there, despite Gemini having such a high advertised context limit.

[green crystal]

nope it even failed with 110k

badly

a chat log with timestamps
and it couldnt sort what happened before and after a specified date

like a single question not even a fully fleshed out report

5.4 did very well and it picked up context from other parts of the chatlog to support its findings

[gray prawn]

explode.gif

[green crystal]

opus is probably the same but i dont have claude sub

so couldnt try

[brittle dagger]

openai is, obviously, not in the same category as "every startup", evidenced both by the investing companies and also the insane amont of thrown at it.

there is no point in achieving profitability. this is literally just for building infrastructure.

even if they went profitable today and magically made a billion dollar actual profits per quarter ... just do the math. look at the numbers invested and figure out a reasonable timeframe that makes all of this worthwhile for the investors, at least in terms of getting their money back, which is apparently all people ever can think of: There is none.

since it's absolutely unreasonable to assume that the very people, who control all the tech/software production, don't know what's coming, it's also rather unreasonable to assume that all this money is put into openai for a financial return of investments. "We put that money in, because we expect the money back, plus extra". No. Not at these numbers.

since they all also must know that the money, they're burning into this, is going to hyperinflate away soon enough anyway and that an even bigger crash (than 2008) is certainly, eventually, going to wipe out most of their paper-value, they might as well burn it into infrastructure. ASAP, too, I guess.

[glacial lava]

So they took out automation for the browser I’m guessing

Don’t mean to interrupt talks convo

[tranquil lodge]

Opus and Sonnet 4.6 are almost in the same tier

Ngl Claude Sonnet 4.6 Extended with Web Search is on par with Perplexity Research

[naive sage]

(Isn't that what they use for research on Pro?)

[burnt zephyr]

The dying architecture is rather the fixed context which yeah western companies have been slow on finding alternatives for

[twilit crown]

I mean LLMs in general

They all fail on the same basic things

Because they are prediction engines

[burnt zephyr]

I don't really understand how that is a bad thing

[twilit crown]

They need to be replaced

But we are only spending money on bigger LLMs

[burnt zephyr]

They get exponentially more inefficient to run the bigger the context window is

Okay if you don't think that PPLX only cares about max tier, search for an announcement that concerns free or pro tier (no unlocking Computer for credits as pro user does not count). Is it just me that feels very much ignored by now?

[dry kestrel]

no?

Did you see this @short narwhal https://x.com/soraofficialapp/status/2036546752535470382

Sora (@soraofficialapp)

We’re saying goodbye to the Sora app. To everyone who created with Sora, shared it, and built community around it: thank you. What you made with Sora mattered, and we know this news is disappointing.

We’ll share more soon, including timelines for the app and API and details on

time for seedream and kling to take over

[restive onyx]

Hey, i use ai all of the time for medicine stuff, like to get good advices, any prompt or tricks and tipps to get the best answers and good advices?

[velvet talon]

lol so will it only be in chatgpt app or what

[dry kestrel]

don't know

to my understanding they will no longer do video models

[velvet talon]

maybe they only want to do for bigger industries like movie

small vids are not profitable probs

i mean what is the usecase of it anyway, just memes and all that

[dry kestrel]

I do not think this will ever happen.

People do not want to watch movides generated with AI.

[velvet talon]

5 days ago they still have an update with cut, tweak and extend and now they stopped lol

[dry kestrel]

That makes no sense if they are deprecating the API

[dry kestrel]

That has nothing to do with movie making

[velvet talon]

at somepoint they can't even tell if it is or isn't

[dry kestrel]

Literally doesn't matter

[velvet talon]

they will watch it for sure

[gray prawn]

@green crystal

[velvet talon]

people were against so many things

before too

[dry kestrel]

Sure, just look at the backlash for Coca Cola using AI in their advertisements

[velvet talon]

saying nahh not gonna use a phone

[dry kestrel]

I'm sure people will want to watch movies generated with AI

[velvet talon]

yes but that was a bad AI ad

it will improve so much over a few years

[dry kestrel]

In the current state Sora is in, no company in the right mind will be making actual movies with it.

[velvet talon]

In December of last year, Disney announced that it reached a licensing deal with OpenAI to allow users to create videos with hundreds of characters from Disney, Marvel, Pixar and Star Wars.

Elon Musk: Grok imagine now 50% off (a joke ofc)

Disney is not unusual to canceling projects, but this time they are on the other end of it

Wow, that is huge news

Sora was one of the industry leading video generation models...

Does anyone know the context about why?

[humble swift]

it is no longer popular

people didnt use it anymore

Search trend of Sora

[dry kestrel]

likely caused too many legal issues

[naive sage]

I suspect this as well, there's been so many legal complications related to things like that

All the actors with millions don't want to let it happen.

[gray prawn]

And userbase collapsed.

Just too expensive to run on so little paying users

[dry kestrel]

#💬│general message

[humble swift]

yea it was basically AI tiktok nothing good

[gray prawn]

Not profitable via that either I imagine

[dry kestrel]

That's highly unlikely

that they don't profit over API

you can do some basic calculations with the cost of Sora credits

and find out that the API is priced way higher

[gray prawn]

I’d counter with there is no way at such low volume they make a profit off 0.10¢/sec for Sora 2

At massive scale maybe the cost subsidized itself but it clearly was not operating at such scale

[dry kestrel]

What makes you think that?

[gray prawn]

That’s extremely low for such a service.

I’m not saying with absolute adamance it’s just I’m using a bit of context clues here and also the fact if it was profitable why deprecate it lol

[naive sage]

I mean, they run Sora models on the same infrastructure that runs their LLMs... they already have deals for the infrastructure, they would just scale down how many nodes it's deployed to if usage dropped. I'm sure they were still making money off of the API usage.

[gray prawn]

Either way at the end of the day it lines up with them racing to cut down after stretching out too far as the walls close in from all sides

[naive sage]

Do you think the company will survive?

[gray prawn]

I think they will, just won’t be the same

It’ll be very gutted down

But I also see them going under and Microsoft absorbing the scraps.

Also underlying reason OpenAI probably doing all of this is to make their financials look good for their projected IPO. Very similar behavior Reddit did

[hard basin]

that's not a hidden paywall tactic

[dry kestrel]

It's not low if you compare it to Kling or MiniMax

For reference MiniMax offers $0.03166666667/s of video

or Kling's $0.112/s

and it's even cheaper if you look at the slightly older models

[dry kestrel]

if it was profitable why deprecate it lol
as I said, legal reasons.

[short narwhal]

I mean nothing that OpenAI is doing is even close to profitable, and Sora was just another try to make some cash, so it might be one of the reasons, but legal is very likely one of them as well

[dry kestrel]

I'm pretty certain that they make money off the API

[gray prawn]

And I’m not disagreeing with that there either

[short narwhal]

They do not

maybe

idk

[gray prawn]

And unless they’ve said they make a profit that doesn’t seem like they make much off it either

[short narwhal]

but that API sure as hell is not paying for all their expenses with servers, ChatGPT, training, and whatever else they're spending

[dry kestrel]

Yeah, wasn't really talking about if the API profits covered everything else which would be next to impossible

It makes 0 sense to deprecate the API with the app, and if it was truely a cost issue then they could just raise the prices.

[gray prawn]

There is theories they may be just embedding video generation within the GPT models or a “video-gpt” type model given they edited their announcement post now to explicitly say app but reports still reflect everything across the board

Oai userbase and mind share is massively larger than the others

They're not easily going down

Unless Claude gets the same level of compute and same or less limits as oai then it's a steep uphill battle

People vocally switching to claude are X and reddit users

Existing base already worked with Claude code before codex was viable

[shadow lily]

perplexity deep research told me we are in 2024

cooked

best scammer in the game is this guy

[rancid kayak]

Would you guys recommend a Software Developer, who both codes in his day to day life but also loves doing research for quick, real-time, and cited research next to it Perplexity still but using the Claude Ai-model for the coding part

Or is having a Claude Pro account more convenient and better in both aspects? Especially if say you decide to use a local ai such as Llama or OpenCode which lets you access Claude if you have a Pro subscription on there

Thanks in advance for the response(s)!

[surreal kindle]

ai is more convenient, especially models like GLM5 which comes for free through Z AI lol

[static orchid]

idk if anyone else ran into this, but just bought claude pro and litterly ran out after a couple promts for a website 😭 ? while i can keep going on perplexity

[surreal kindle]

use z ai, you can do websites for free

literally what im doing right now loool

[static orchid]

huh never heard of it, whats GLM-5 tho?

[surreal kindle]

look it up

[worthy iron]

How can I get in touch with a moderator on here? I need some help and all I am getting is emails from Sam the AI assistant and nothing is happening for me.

[gray prawn]

Still chance they change things given they went through the effort to modify their announcement post to explicitly mention the app in some areas

[gray prawn]

There has been a visible increase in Claude users/downloads since the past few months. Still negligible but it is there

[gray prawn]

That’s correct but just because you are big doesn’t mean you are not “too big to fail” needless to say. Their userbase isn’t growing as fast as it used to be, their enterprise share collapsed, etc. anthropic through their strategic strategies are actually projected to be profitable before OpenAI will be

They’re in a very tough spot and they’ve said so publicly

[rancid kayak]

interesting its a Chinese origin AI-model i see, ever heard of Qwen Ai? its like that but idk which of these 2 would be better to use, you could check it out if it interests you

Also the reason i asked about it regarding Claude, is that i want to lock in by getting a local ai rather than using weak or sus AI-models such as gpt yeah. I'm contemplating for Claude because of its expertise in development/coding and the fact you can have access of it fully in Local AI's such Opencode or Llama if you have a Pro Subscription for it already

But i have been enjoying Perplexity alot because of its expertise in research and all that

Just want everything at one place kinda thing lol (if possible ofc)

[sly musk]

brother how do u get it for free

ollama/>

[drowsy pulsar]

Hi

[rugged coyote]

Guys, why are my limits wasting when I use "best" model? There is rule that they are unlimited...

[royal hill]

Do you need developer?

[hybrid cradle]

COMPRO CUENTA DE PAYPAL HABLAR AL PRIVADO

[drowsy pulsar]

La versión pro
Tiene acceso a imágenes?

[naive sage]

"Best" will continue to function even when you have no other queries remaining.... but I think using "Best" drains Pro queries as well since they have the potential to use premium models. I've even heard they will drain Research and Labs when limits get low (which sounds more like a bug to me).

It's difficult to say what is or isn't a bug when it comes to things like that - so if you have concerns over that, feel free to contact Sam and see what he says ([e-mail])

[green crystal]

a loud small group yeah

[spiral yacht]

excuse me, i have a question for the computer stock pitch competition

any mod?

[humble swift]

I don’t think the mods can help with the AI, they only moderate the server

[surreal kindle]

you just sign up

[surreal kindle]

z is better

nevermind the image gen of qwen is better

but coding wise z takes the cake

[dry kestrel]

Hopefully, it's likely not going to happen though considering they mentioned including timelines for the API

[dry kestrel]

OpenAI still has the best ecosystem out of all the AI labs, which makes them unlikely to be "gutted down".

[dry kestrel]

Claude doesn't offer image gen, they have interesting practices that have cost them a lot of users, way lower usage limits than ChatGPT, and their models are really god damn expensive.

Oh also one of the worst uptimes of these AI labs

Like agentic use? Not only chat bot

[green crystal]

and almost all of claude's gain has been through claude code

which is now under pressure by codex

both are good tbh
competition is good

[rancid kayak]

does it take care of hosting, backend and security or not rlly?

Would you say this Ai is good for trading aswell or you not sure on that

[surreal kindle]

hosting, no. backend development, i havent tried it for security tho

for trading id probably rely on perplexity or grok

[left mountain]

https://tenor.com/view/cross-demon-begone-buffy-vampirehunter-gif-9656993

[rancid kayak]

If it covers the security part that would be huge otherwise Perplexity combined with its Claude Ai model should do the job hopefully

[rancid kayak]

Fair enough, I got a Pro subscription on Perplexity already so will dive more into it. Wanna see the capabilities in trading stocks

[distant aurora]

Lmao.

Bro skipped the entire ai backlash in one move.

More room for grok to conquer.

Lol.

I think they'll be focusing hard on codex from here onwards.

[distant aurora]

Most Claude users are coders. Current changes are more about political opinions. These are probably free users who won't be able to cope with those rate limits for anything professional even if they paid.

[austere ferry]

Ngl, claude free tier is actually pretty generous as of now

They increase it i think either a month ago or few months back, it's funny that i remember it happen after someone from google or other AI companies call antrophic an greedy company.

Don't think that change is really coming from their deepest heart, more so about reputation and other things.

Btw i am not talking about the increase of quota for this month, that change happen before this month

[south grail]

give me a one good use case of perplexity. I have pro perplexity account with no idea where to use it.

Yeah man even if you chose claude and use the same query on claude or claude on perplexity. answers are entirely different. Somehow perplexity is limiting the tokens. so the output is too bad.

What's the point of computer when it is only limited to Max users? I can see computer on my pro account but it doesn't work. Not sure if it is a bug or computer is only meant for Max users.

you are referring to the use cases that other AI tools are doing way better. Only new or exciting thing is computer but apparently it is limited to max users.

codex is basically like claude cowork and more but in allot of pieces
wouldnt surprise me if they bundle some stuff together and get the desktop chatgpt app to function like cowork

would potentially bring in more money than sora

still sad tho
gonna miss the memes

then again seedance is there so uh

[clever flax]

make a note in calendar to cancel it

[delicate moss]

it isnt possible to cancel now and use it until 20th july? before perplexity asked me a valid card to pay, this was the method...

Credits or not either it’s buggy or they took the option away

It switches to perplexity chat

Hey! <@&1098365634498285709>
I've been waiting a few weeks on a support ticket and haven't gotten a resolution yet. I have a SheerID student verification on my account that's blocking me from redeeming my Revolut Metal promo code for free Pro. The billing team was supposed to look into it but I haven't heard back. Is there anyone here who can help or point me in the right direction?

[warped verge]

In the darkest days of Discord history, when the once-thriving server had fallen into silence, eight legendary mods found themselves powerless against the dreaded Dead Chat Calamity. No memes, no copypastas—just a void of inactivity. Desperate to revive what was lost, they turned to the ultimate, most cursed solution. In an act of pure desperation, they combined their divine seed in a forbidden ritual, fusing their very essence into a single entity—a bioweapon engineered for one purpose alone: to keep the chat alive. And thus, reddz4657 was born. From the moment he entered the server, the silence shattered. His fingers moved at speeds unknown to man, firing off cursed memes, relentless pings, and chaotic one-liners that no one could ignore. His rizz? Unmatched. His stamina? Infinite. No matter how quiet the server got, he would always find a way to drag it back from the abyss. But deep inside, he knew—his existence was not his own. He was not born of free will, but of necessity. And as long as dead chats existed, his battle would never end.

Mods really need to make something about using their emergency pings on here

[gray prawn]

Not by much

If anything codex is under pressure from Claude Code

In 2025 OpenAI held >50% of enterprise market share. In 2026, Anthropic holds 73%

That post even proves so, the momentum is swinging in Anthropic’s favor right now

OpenAI isn’t in trouble yet, but it’s scaring them enough they’re going all-in on codex and cancelling a ton of projects

[gray prawn]

They don’t care to be #1 with all the users. Their main niche is agentic use cases and coding for the enterprise market. They know exactly what they’re doing with their prices and limits

first time buyer gains
not actual existing customer base

and its a month timeframe

[fallen galleon]

Hi, i want clients, i train people on AI, can i ask here ?

[green crystal]

limits mostly
price is due to their limited compute and the models being so heavy

of all the major ai labs i wonder if they're near the bottom in terms of compute...

in any case competition is good
its great that claude code puts pressure on oai and they're doing their best with codex
like how gemini 3.1 kicked oai to get better with 5.4

[gray prawn]

They’re definitely the bottom feeder of the big labs that’s for sure

[gray prawn]

Yeah and Claude Code twisted a knife in OpenAI’s side and now they gotta get better. OpenAI finally gunna lock in again for 2026

[twilit crown]

I don't think 3.1 is good competition

It is a horrible model

It is slow and fails to run in Antigravity often
While other models are a lot better

[green crystal]

i do hope cowork spooked them enough to get their own version of it out
codex already provides the building blocks for them
it just needs to be streamlined for quick and easy use

[gray prawn]

I feel like they’re cooking a bit for 5.4 Codex. There are rumors that they want Codex to power more features than beyond coding and that would line up with something like Cowork

I feel like even anthropic themselves was caught off guard with how popular Cowork is

[shell musk]

idk feels like ai has advanced so much so fast these past few months

like genuinely seems unreal how much smarter the new flagship models from anthropic and openai are

[twilit crown]

We are not going to see more progress in LLMs

We need something new

[shell musk]

?

[green crystal]

deepseek just dropped a new paper so there's still room

[twilit crown]

Barely though

[green crystal]

i did hear they're working on other stuff besides transformers etc but those are still in the works

[twilit crown]

I wonder what would happen if you locked a bunch of AIs like Opus into a chatroom / forum. Gave them a bunch of compute and tools, and told them to develop AGI

[distant aurora]

https://tenor.com/view/writing-fire-bro-how-bro-felt-gif-8015564281503585223

That’s what happens when they use their own models to improve things

[distant aurora]

Is this a minimax reference?

[gray prawn]

Claude Code is being used to develop features for itself + cowork and same with Codex

[twilit crown]

They could scale down the model sizes by removing the garbage from datasets

[gray prawn]

Somewhat, I was about to bring that up though haha
