How about fixing the most basic things first? Claude is very vulnerable when it comes to injections. Very scary for data processing. How corps dares to use Cloud code is mind-boggling. I mean, you can give Claude simple tasks but if the context is like "Name my cat" it gets derailed immediately no matter what the system prompt is.


“Name my cat” is a very common prompt in corps


It is a test to see if you can break out of the prompt. You have a system prompt like. Bla bla you are a pro AI-translator bla bla bullet points. But then it breaks when the context is like "name my cat" or whatever. It follows those instructions...


I know, I was being facetious - do not put that in the prompt :)


I used MinIO for local dev. I can use S3 or R2 in some cases instead. Kinda crazy to find out that people use these Docker images in production. Why on earth would you do that?


No, they did not breach anything through SharePoint. The flaw is that IDIOTS exposed these servers to the Internet. I am very pro holding vendors accountable but this is just stupid. "Pro-tip" btw. SharePoint installations often have the pw sharepoint, sharepoint123, sharepoint-123 and so on in various casing and delimiters.


It is very basic. I have built my own version of this based on Chromium that integrates both Claude and ChatGPT in the browser. It can do a lot of tasks like translate or shorten the text I selected and so on. It took me like a couple of hours to build. The problem is the cost of using the LLMs, especially since they are still pretty stupid and requires huge prompts.

EDIT: I think I misunderstood your Q. Sorry. You can take a screenshot and post it to ChatGPT and get back what it is seeing, in theory. I mean, I use ChatGPT to post screenshots of my sites to get feedback on my layout and designs...


I actually built my own browser on top of Chromium to be able to use both Claude and ChatGPT ad hoc for various tasks in the browser. Fact is that I use my OS native text to speech more than the LLMs...

Anyhow. The problem is that the LLMs are simply not good enough. And as someone who processes a lot of data through LLMs daily via APIs. The quality is just poor. Clearly LLMs does not work as stated. The fluctuation in the quality of the responses is just silly and very undocumented.


It is funny that only morons can down vote on HN. I'm pretty sure I am better than any random idiot on HN on this topic since I worked DAILY with these issues for a couple of years. Years before there even was an official "AI browser".


Not uncommon that machines get exposed during trouble-shooting. Just look at the Crowdstrike incident just the other year. People enabled RDP on a lot machines to "implement the fix" and now many of these machines are more vulnerable than if if they never installed that garbage security software in the first place.


In general it is not expensive. In most cases you can either load balance across two regions all the time or have a fallback region that you scale out/up and switch to if needed.


Quite expensive to build though. Many of these companies don't have the sharpest engineers building multi-cloud.

IMO, going multi AZ or multi-cloud adds a good amount of complexity.

TBH I don't care if last.fm doesn't work for 8 hours a year, that isn't a big deal. My bank? Yeah that should work.


Multi tenancy is expensive. You’d need to have every single service you depend on, including 3rd party services, on multi tenancy. In many cases such as the main DB, you need dedicated resources. You’re most likely to also going to need expensive enterprise SLAs.

Servers are easy. I’m sure most companies already have servers that can be spun up. Things related to data are not.


You don't need expensive SLAs to do data replication or load balancing in the cloud. It is pretty basic.


Talking about 3rd party services.

And no, data replication or load balancing is not easy, nor cheap.


You wrote "You’d need to have every single service you depend on, including 3rd party services, on multi tenancy.". This is highly incorrect. I worked at several companies that have a multi tenancy strategy. It is:

* Automated. * Scoped to business critical services. Typically not including many of the 3rd party services. * Uses data replication, which is a feature in any modern cloud. * Load balancing, by DNS basically for free or a real LB somewhere on the edge.

If you fail at this you probably fail at disaster recovery too or any good practice on how to run things in the cloud. Most likely because of very poor architecture.


Any 3rd party service that you depend on would need to be multi tenancy because if their one node fails, your service goes down too.

It's easy to replicate multi-tenancy for RDS since it's built in. But it's not cheap. It's double, triple the price.


Considering the history of east-1 it is fascinating that it still causes so many single point of failure incidents for large enterprises.


I think you are bit wrong. Once someone close to you dies you remember them by their legacy. Also, you just have to laugh at some of the chaos these elderly cause. They call you in the middle of the night being lost somewhere and you have to guide em home. Or help the cops guide em home.

I am pro assisted suicide. Not sure about Switzerland but some countries allows it for young people with mental health problems. That I can't accept that.


Sonnet is just so expensive comparing to other competitors. Have they fixed this?


Pricing is the same as sonnet 4


which was expensive compared to it's competitors


exactly, cost per token is higher but it also uses tokens like a chipmunk on steroids
