"Conviction" is the name of an AI company. I only read the article to figure out who went to jail and why.

Halfway through the article, I find this:

> Near the center of the moment is a 37-year-old woman a smidge over five feet tall, with blonde hair and more energy than her frame seems built to hold. When she talks, her whole body is caught in the updraft of the thought. Her name is Sarah Guo.

That's why I'm increasingly asking Claude to give me 3-paragraph summaries of articles that may contain interesting facts, but are also exercises in creative writing that I am unwilling to commit the time to. Here is an excerpt from the summary Claude gave me:

>The wager the title refers to is that the big labs cannot build everything on top of their own models. Their customers are increasingly sick of paying for tokens, feeding the labs their data, and effectively training the company that may one day replace them, a dynamic one founder describes as not wanting to spend his life drinking Anthropic and OpenAI's water. So Guo bets on the application layer and on the picks and shovels, like Baseten, which lets companies run their own models and has grown revenue twentyfold in a year as token prices spiked.

Does it annoy you to pay an AI to explain what probably another AI wrote? One AI is fluffing up the word count to an unreadable level while another has to trim it back down. If every article was just the text of the prompt that generated it, it would be a much quicker read.

Sadly, incontinence-like verbosity is a phenomenon which precedes AI-generated content by quite some centuries. Whether this article is generated by squishy neurons of banks of GPUs is almost immaterial. Heck, it might even be good writing. I just don't care to read it in its entirety, that's all.

Notably, no one has gone to jail yet. Figure its only a matter of time till someone in the AI world gets caught defrauding investors though...

Did they update the title?

I don't know. At the moment, the title is "Sarah's Wager" which tells me nothing because I'm not on a first name basis with Sarah. So I looked at the URL which is Sarah Guo Conviction, which only gave me the wrong impression as to what the article was about. When I saw it was about AI, I wanted to know if someone went to jail from running a scam.
