What happens to the copies already installed?

Spur says these SDKs can keep running after the app is closed and only stop when the user deletes the app or opts out. LG says developers must remove them or have their apps suspended, but the article doesn’t say whether that disables existing installs. If it doesn’t, LG needs to tell affected users which apps to remove.

Does webOS have any way to kill an installed app remotely?


Casado says he was misquoted and walked this back: https://x.com/martin_casado/status/1990462245541982546

"Well, not quite. I'd say 20-30% use open source. Of those I'd say 80% use Chinese based models. So closer to 16-24%."

Reads pretty differently.


yeah and the gap between "use open source" and "use open source as their primary model" is probably p large


yes... I think for startups there's a strong desire to demonstrate technical independence - there's a strong smell with looking like a wrapper on Anthropic or OpenAI. With an open model you can weave a story where you are exercising differentiating knowhow by deploying or tuning models yourself.


This should really be the #1 comment on this post.


Wow, that kind of undermines the entire premise of the piece. It also makes much more sense. Thanks for digging that up!


Misquote? Or selective hearing for the story headline? Thats literally a 4x difference there


I was thinking the same. A lot of people use AI to refine their writing and make it more concise.

I do think the dead giveaways (em dashes, it's not X it's Y, etc.) are annoying to come across repeatedly. A person not bothering to remove these tells feels 'low effort' to me.


The fact that you made a new account to write says it all.


Great outside-the-box thinking, will be giving this a try, especially with LLMs having computer control functionality. Combine this with some open source video editors and you've basically got your own bootstrapped version of Screen Studio.


Very cool use of AI. Shows the power of Autoresearch when you're actually able to build a strict set of tests that clearly delineate successful outcomes.


Very cool, thanks for sharing. Speed was my biggest concern and they didn't mention anything about it.


One of the things they neglected to discuss was how much longer it takes given the synthesis step. I guess for a deep research benchmark, it doesn't matter much, but will be interesting to see how it applies to coding tasks.


So happy I came across this. Need to rethink a few projects.


Based on your explanation, it doesn't sound feasible for me, a complete non-engineer, to switch to fully offline? I do a lot of back and forth discussion with LLMs as someone who reads and writes 0 code.


I'm afraid I'd have to agree. That is, unless you have 512GB+ RAM sitting on a shelf and run the much larger SOTA-comparable local models.
