  2. 🎉 "Relay" race just got a whole lot "safer"! 🏃‍♂️ Apparently, everyone needs to "protect" these precious relays like they're the last slice of pizza at a tech conference. 🤦‍♂️ Welcome to the world where relays are now guarded by #tokens, because nothing says 'security' like adding yet another layer to your already tangled spaghetti stack. 🍝🔐

  4. "People are finding it really hard to manage that #cost… (AI tokens) it's a non #deterministic output, so it's a #NonDeterministic #value," — Will Venters, associate professor of Digital Innovation and Information Systems at the London School of Economics

    So say we all.. Yeah, pretty weird...

    $2T spent thus far on AI Infrastructure build-out ( so I have read...), likely more.

    Yet, no viable business model - that I have seen - on how to even recoup that - much less reap a profit...

    ..and yet here we are.... megacorps, oligarchs and billionaires throwing astounding amounts of cash at AI Infra build-out.

    Millions of cube-dwellers bludgeoned into AI adoption by mid-managers, and now being asked to hold off - cause #tokens

  6. Workplaces look for cheaper #AI as ‘#tokenmaxxing’ fades as a corporate fad
    Bain & Company management consultants said many of big businesses firm advises have been taking a closer look at returns on their AI investments.
    Those who still favor racking up as many #tokens as possible are having a field day with new open-source models from #China's startups like Moonshot’s Kimi or Zhipu’s GLM, which nearly match the capabilities of top U.S. models at a fraction of the price.

    Ist irgendjemand überrascht? Eine #ki hat von sich aus keine #Moral, Menschen ja auch nicht. Computer sind halt genau so asozial wie wir auch. weswegen man #AI zumindest so trainieren *muss* das sie versucht, sich nett zu verhalten. Kostet aber #Tokens, #Training ist teuer...

  8. Say you have a user U of an app A, and A needs to access U's data on a third party web api T on U's behalf, how do you do this without A asking U for his/her/their password for T? This is fundamentally the problem OAuth solves.

    Software engineer Ashutosh Krishna breaks down the OAuth 2.0 workflow in this guide published today.

  9. I can easily see how these stories about a guy burning $$$$$$ tokens arise...

    I bought U$15 worth of tokens on togather.ai to suck it and see...
    And literally in 3 days, it was all gone.
    At $1.4/million of tokens, you would think it would last longer...

    ... not the way I spend #tokens like a drunken clanker...

    So if you're spending your bosses moni via API...let it rain!

  10. 🚨 BREAKING NEWS: #TypeScript costs a shocking ✨73✨ more #tokens on #Claude than GPT! Because paying extra for the same thing is obviously the #future of cost-effective #coding. 🙄 Founders, freelancers, and marketers rejoice! Now you can pay more for less. 💸
