> We make all the data ourselves.

I mean, this claim is simply preposterous, and is discountable as ridiculous nonsense on its face.

reply
Really? I read it as saying they use 100% synthetic data, which is made in house. Why is that preposterous?
reply
Yeah, and synthetic data is pretty darn good nowadays especially with access to frontier models.

> especially with access to frontier models

... so not made in house.

To create a cake from scratch, first you must create the universe.

How do you create "100% synthetic data" that is filled with countless facts, coding patterns, medicine, law, philosophy, etc? The notion is farcical.

reply
Sure, if your point is that nobody bakes cakes, you’re right.

While it is painfully, abundantly clear that such wasn't my point, if we need to stick to the cake analogy, it's like buying a cake from the grocery store, cutting it into six slices, and then reassembling the slices and now claiming that you made the cake yourself. It is, you see, "100% synthetic".

This is a ridiculous conversation, but their claim is such laughable bullshit that it's amazing that anyone actually buys it.
