So i checked the license of this project, can anyone pls clarify what is (Expat) after MIT License

There are a number of licenses that are named MIT that are all similar, but not identical.

The "Expat" here is the MIT license variant. It is referring to the Expat XML parsing library that first used this license.

Usually when projects these days use an MIT license this is the version they use.


There are different licenses that used to be referred to as "MIT", and explicitly stating "Expat" tells you which one they're referring to (in this case, the "standard" one). This is largely unnecessary, as nearly all mentions of the MIT license refer to this one.

Seriously I've seen multiple hypes which were exposed late after false claims spreaded fast and I feel bad for those who don't get to know the truth always


Yes just to hype up their product, they can literally trick people to believe something which is not true at all.


See also politicians.


Makes sense


You're right but what else he suppose to do? can't ignore taiwan and at the same time can't backoff from his promises as well. Its complicated!


Something, Youtube should have done earlier. But anyway its a good step. But again there are many open models out there on HF that could bypass this just like synthid is not used is every image, similarly not every chinese AI model wants to get their output detected. Time will tell how this goes...

Yea this makes sense but then why would they even bother to go with claude code earlier?

I just don't understand why these tech billionaires wanna hype up everything so bad that even they know that people understand its just a unnecessary hype, yet they keep ignoring their core audience and keep on promoting more token usage or should i say wastage of natural resources. I use AI and I believe everyone here does at a certain extent its good but when something is forced, the conclusion comes out bad.

For me its either bing or duckduckgo

hmm


Make Sense but again its Siri we are talking about which apple claims to be more private and secure


agree, apple’s brand is known as more exclusive and private than google’s & anyhow google had a lot of backlash “recently” regarding ai (ie in the New Yorker) so apple should frame its comparative advantage of privacy as a gap from competitors’ offerings


> apple’s brand is known as more exclusive and private

> apple should frame its comparative advantage

All of this is just marketing, though. Apple customers are still being routed through Google's services, which should raise an eyebrow for anyone no matter what the advertisements say.

Except, Apple customers don't care about this marketing spiel, because they're happy to default to Google Search for services like Spotlight. There's no boycott of Apple products or general outrage that stemmed from that deal, despite it funneling traffic into Google's AdSense monopoly and propping up their general surveillance empire.
