Relatedly, we find LLM vision models absolutely atrocious at counting things. We build school curricula, and one basic task for our activities is counting – blocks, pictures of ducks, segments in a chart, whatever. Current LLM models can't reliably count four or five squares in an image.
The law requires Oracle who hosts their data companies that provide cdn services to stop working with them. The law did require them to suspend service, but not quite as soon as they did and nothing had changed legally
The law required them to choose from among several options, one of which was suspending the service. The law did not permit maintaining the status quo as an option.
No, it does not at all require ByteDance to suspend service.
It requires Apple and Google to stop distributing the app on their app stores, and it requires any US-based hosting providers that host TikTok services to stop providing those services.
ByteDance could shut down any US-hosted services and serve from outside the US, and be entirely compliant with the law. The TikTok mobile app might become out of date and stop working (for people who already had it installed on their phones), but www.tiktok.com would continue to work just fine.
>and it requires any US-based hosting providers that host TikTok services to stop providing those services.
And they were forced to use those hosting providers (oracle) by the US.
It's not like investing loads to bring all the data over to singapore or so would serve them well either. They'd still lose the US business relatively quickly and with lower chances of turning things around like they might've. Why bother?
I calculated the "cost per dollar" of all of the offerings on the website at the moment.
The best "deal" is the most expensive – $100 x 16 for $1,860, at $1.16 per dollar.
The worst deal is the cheapest – $1 x 5 for $18.50, at $3.70 per dollar.
I myself do not, but some people I know who are intelligent and articulate and also dyslexic struggle to get their thoughts expressed in writing adequately for professional life, especially in the “everyone live co-editing” environment these days. Many of them report Grammarly being a valuable tool for them to feel like they’re on a more even playing field.
So yes, fancy autocorrect, but apparently better enough to matter for them.

If you click on the moleskine notebook, you can read seven pages of "handwritten" notes, though they are full of analogies and exhortations that still don't actually explain what it is.
(My company selected LibreChat to host our internal “GPT Teams” implementation after surveying and evaluating the current state of tools as of about six months ago, but I’m sure it’s a rapidly evolving space.)
Thanks for the question! I was kind of expecting it :)
It is indeed a rapidly evolving space and I think choosing LibreChat was a great choice. We only have good words for them!
In our case, we'd like to put our efforts on addressing specific needs of businesses & organizations that aren't always well covered by similar open source projects. Foundational things like granular permissions, advanced auth, usage reports, spend control and content moderation are top priorities in our roadmap. And then, we'd like to invest heavily in data integrations and RAG.
Finally, we'd like to make it extremely easy to self-host by making the deployment and upgrading process a breeze.
Hope this takes us to a place where people find value in our work!
