Something similar happened to a physician friend of mine who was working on an note writing and research app that didn't have PMI - it used simulated/scrubbed medical data. Thankfully, only had to wait two weeks to hear from a real person at Anthropic. Getting to a real human support person should be possible, for some reason companies optimize for getting as little human interaction as possible. Thankfully, this person knew to post here and people from Anthropic work here.

Forget about blocking ChatGPT, they block search from users. I can't count the number of times I'd had to go back to search engine to find a specific product on Amazon because they don't surface the product with the exact name I'm looking for... Last one was Unite 7Second Detangler. They only returned sponsored products, but go to Google (site:amazon.com Unite 7Second Detangler)and search - boom within the first five spots (and way cheaper than the products shown in Amazon's search). Don't trust Amazon search people! Search Amazon from another search engine.
I want to use silicone bowls and lids, but silicone dishes always come out sticky and cloudy out of the dishwasher (even with rinse aid, whole house filtered water and extra rinse/wash cycles). Other dishes don't have this problem. What's your secrete for this?
>Speaking of smoking, anti-smoking campaigns in the US in the 90s led to a vast reduction in teen use and adult use alike.
Late 90s... specifically after 1997 and early 2000s. But the anti-smoking campaigns before that were not effective. In fact, educating teens and adults on the dangers of smoking increased smoking. Smoking rates for teens peaked at 37% in 1997. it wasn't until the "Truth" campaigns where they focused on how the tobacco industry was basically a conspiracy, that smoking rates began to fall. And you can't pretend that tobacco taxes didn't play a part in reducing usage either.
Maybe, but I would argue that some of these features are genuinely useful and important. Take translation, for example. It's not great to have to send off a page that potentially contains identifying content to Google, but it is the easiest way to handle the matter. Firefox uses local AI to perform a decent translation relatively quickly, and I'd like them to work on improving that capability.
Agreed on all counts. Right now there's not even a keyboard shortcut implemented (fiddly context menu only), and the translations are sometimes dodgy too, but I still use it. It's such peace of mind to know that the translation is happening entirely locally.
Well it does say that compute is a current bottleneck, but I doubt that'll stay that way forever. There's a ton of resources going into making AI run locally, quickly. It's already gotten loads better just last year.
Congrats! I'll be working this out. It doesn't seem that you can connect to gmail currently through cowork right now. When will the connectors roll out for this? (Gmail works fine in chats currently).
Can I include an asshole AI? Or one that nitpicks my grammar? Also need someone to explain how I am wrong about nearly everything and should give up writing? Otherwise it would feel super fake.
Perhaps this is a joke but I'd truly love to sic a fleet of asshole AIs on my drafts.
Grant us the ability to reply to bots in a public and timestamped manner so that, if ever a human makes a similarly ridiculous response, we can just point at our response there. It'd free up space in the piece itself that'd otherwise go to asterisks and other preemptions of armchair dweebery.
