> kinda wild that alibaba of all companies is making it hard to give them money tho

Okay so this is entirely off topic but, are there any options to subscribe to these companies without having a credit card? (I am Brazilian if this makes a difference)

It's kind of wild that a Chinese AI lab will require something like.. a credit card with visa or mastercard label, and very little else.

It's an interesting example of the metric becoming a target. Simon started drawing pelicans because it wasn't something that existed before.

There’s a small albeit nonzero chance that frontier labs want Simon to stop using the pelican thing so they can draw attention to better benchmarks

As far as I can tell they all still understand that it's a joke.
