MBP - M4 Max - Chrome 146.0.7680.178.

No crash.

Now I don't want to click that "Finish update" button.


if it does so happen that the crash originates from a browser exploit, you should expect to be more at risk due to the absence of a crash on an older version, not less

Ultrathink is back? I thought that wasn't a thing anymore.

If I am following.. "Max" is above "High", but you can't set it to "Max" as a default. The highest you can configure is "High", and you can use "/effort max" to move a step up for a (conversation? session?), or "ultrathink" somewhere in the prompt to move a step up for a single turn. Is this accurate?


Yep, exactly


Mentioning ULTRATHINK in prompt is the equivalent to /effort max?


Yes but only for the message that includes it. Whereas /effort max keeps it at max effort the entire convo, to my knowledge


No, ultrathink puts it in /effort high mode. There's no kw for one turn of effort max

4.6 Opus with extended thinking just now: "At 50 meters, just walk. By the time you start the car, back out, and park again, you'd already be there on foot. Plus you'll need to leave the car with them anyway."


Nah. It's just non-deterministic. I'm here 4 hours later and here's the Opus 4.6 (extended thinking) response I just got:

"At 50 meters, just walk. By the time you start the car, back out, and park again, you'd already be there on foot. Plus you'll need to leave the car with them anyway."


"It's rare you'd want to do that unless you're actually near the context window after planning."

Highly disagree. It's rare you WOULDN'T want to do this. This was a good change, and a lot of us were doing this anyway, but just manually.

Getting the plan together and then starting fresh will almost always produce better results.


Exact same issues here with my APP3s. (Except it's my right ear)


I didn't think so either.

But it's Karphathy... and he's way smarter than I am.


Awesome post, really. One of the best I've read in a while!

Total side question, if anyone knows -- what tool (if any?) was used for the graphics in this article? The dot matrix looking map style stuff? I really dig it.


Thank you! I appreciate that a lot!

Our designers will love that feedback! Unfortunately it’s not a shelf product but they used Figma to design the graphs.


Nothing. It's supported for at least another 3 years. ~2026


"Apple ships their tablet with a stylus"

Huh?


Yikes, I was under the impression that it was included in the $449. Nope, gotta drop another $100.

My point stands: Apple has pen as primary accessory, Google has dock.


I mean, Galaxy Note has a pen but iPhone does not. Does that mean Samsung is for creatives but Apple is not? :->

Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed your theory, the thinking and rationale :). But given the pen is a whopping 100$ for Apple, not sure if it's as simple as that.
