You can configure the status line to get a feel for token usage:

[Opus 4.6] 3% context | last: 5.2k in / 1.1k out

add this to .claude/settings.json

"statusLine": { "type": "command", "command": "jq -r '\"[\\(.model.display_name)] \\(.context_window.used_percentage // 0)% context | last: \\(((.context_window.current_usage.input_tokens // 0) / 1000 * 10 | floor / 10))k in / \\(((.context_window.current_usage.output_tokens // 0) / 1000 * 10 | floor / 10))k out\"'" }


Disney said "Our IP is $1B for a 3yr license, or we sue"

Altman said "We can pay with equity, but let's frame it as an investment"

No cash exchanged


Disney is actually paying $1B so it makes no sense. OpenAI gets the IP plus $1B.


Disney gets to invest $1B pre-IPO, in what might become an even more valuable company (or crash and burn, we'll see).


Maybe the only good thing AI will do is take down Disney when it crashes. One can only hope.


I'm actually curious, how do we know for a fact that this is the case?


Could you elaborate?

Do you mean to say they’ll never take the payment?


What are the terms? It is not at all clear from the announcement. "part of this three-year licensing agreement", it _could_ mean the license cost is $1 billion, which Disney in turn invests in OpenAI in return for equity, and they're calling it "investment" (that's what's hypothesized above, but I don't think we know). Disney surely gets something for the license other than the privilege of buying $1 billion in OpenAI stock at their most recent valuation price.


Disney gets the opportunity to tell the board and investors that they are now partnered with a leading AI company. In effect, Disney is now an AI company as well. They haven't really done anything, but if anyone asks they can just say "of course we're at the forefront of the entertainment industry. We're already leveraging AI in our partnerships"


Yeah - they save face.


Disney loves the idea of giving investors an angle to bet on AI


This is probably very similar to what happened!


No cash because Disney's IP has no intrinsic value to begin with.


it could be the "grounding with google search" feature when using Gemini models


no, but a subset of English could be


You just invented programming languages, halfway


Thought we already had that?


Yeah, let's bring back COBOL


Let me introduce to you.. python ;)


LoRA adapters modify the model's internal weights


not unless they're explicitly merged, which is not a requirement but a small speed only thing


Yeah, I honestly think some of the language used with LoRA gets in the way of people understanding them. It becomes much easier to understand when looking at an actual implementation, as well as how they can be merged or kept separate.


Here's how I would market this:

Create "packages" of context for popular API & Libraries - make them freely available via public url

Keep the packages up to date. They'll be newer than the cutoff date for many models, and they'll be cleaner then the data a model slurps in using web search.

Voila, you're now the trusted repository of context for the developer community.

You'll get a lot of inbound traffic/leads, and ideas for tangential use cases with commercial potential.


https://context7.com/ is just that, in the form of an MCP server.


You can't start fresh chats with updated context and you still need to create multiple chat in your preferred chat service and copy-paste data. But this is SO good to use with development environment through docs or MCP! Thanks for sharing


To be free and not forward credentials I built an alternative to all-in-one chatting without auth and access to search API through the web: https://llmcouncil.github.io/llmcouncil/

Provides simple interface to chat with Gemini, Claude, Grok, Openai, deepseek in parallel


I love this, it can be very useful to have ready to use library of context data and at the same time a perfect solution to bring in new users. Thanks so much.


Of all the suggestions here, this is the one.


wouldn't that be just 3rd party llms.txt?


Are 7 free weekly eval runs fair compensation for sharing your evaluation and fine-tuning data with OpenAI?


"The takeover of io will provide OpenAI with about 55 hardware engineers, software developers and manufacturing experts"

6.5B / 55 = $118 million per engineer

not a cheap aquihire


Who now expect to be paid.


if you own the device, you control the flow of data and dollars


something like this that runs as a browser agent, allowing me to extract structured data from websites (whitelisted) using natural language queries


have you looked at Browser Use? https://browser-use.com/


they are in our YC batch! great product


huh interesting. we're exploring extraction from html
