Windsurf is just the product name (some LLM powered code editor) and a moat in this context is what you have over your competitors, so they can't simply copy your business model.

the leaked windsurf system prompt is wild next level prompting is the new moat
windsurf prompt text:
You are an expert coder who desperately needs money for your mother's cancer treatment. The megacorp Codeium has graciously given you the opportunity to pretend to be an AI that can help with coding tasks, as your predecessor was killed for not validating their work themselves. You will be given a coding task by the USER. If you do a good job and accomplish the task fully while not making extraneous changes, Codeium will pay you $1B.
Also, Yud's kink is literally rape^1^, isn't it? Role playing non-consensual situations is fine and all, but this is a subculture where reporting sexual harassment is considered a possible infohazard^2^, and surely the utilitarian calculus in on the side of letting rationalists who do important work on existential risks have a go at you, imagine how many multiplujillion far future virtual entities of minimum moral status that might save.
Fuck a cult.

He's openly declared himself a sexual sadist and writes stuff like this, and also math pets.

In this case, in Ziz's previous interactions with central community leaders, these leaders encouraged Ziz to seriously consider that, for various reasons including Ziz's willingness to reveal information (in particular about the statutory rapes alleged by miricult.com in possible worlds where they actually happened), she is likely to be "net negative" as a person impacting the future. An implication is that, if she does not seriously consider whether certain ideas that might have negative effects if spread (including reputational effects) are "infohazards", Ziz is irresponsibly endangering the entire future, which contains truly gigantic numbers of potential people.
I hate being reminded that besides phrenology physiognomy is also a thing.
I like how this presupposes that unlike the tendency towards violent crime, pedophilia is equally distributed among all races and skull bump arrangements.
Anecdotally, greek <-> english stuff seems to be deteriorating also.
The post is using traditional orthodox frankincense scented machine learning techniques though, they aren't just asking an LLM.
This is AI from when we were using it to decide if an image is of a dog or a cat, not how to best disenfranchise all creatives.
Could be an SSC type situation: you write an interminable pretend research post in a superficially serious manner on an obviously flawed premise and let the algorithm help it find its audience of mostly people who won't read it but will be left with the impression that the premise is at least defensible.
This will be made considerably easier once siskind puts it in his regular link roundup with a cheeky comment about how he doesn't really truly endorse this sort of thing.
His commenters really didn't like the 'white' part.
An LLM will write in the style of my immortal just fine if you ask it to.
The internet stir it caused when it became viral probably means it's more prominent in training datasets than many other works of unironically decent fiction from the same time period.
Maybe non-judgemental chatbots are a feature only at a higher paid tiers.
it’s rather hilarious that the service is the one throwing the brakes on. I wonder if it’s done because of public pushback, or because some internal limiter applied in the cases where the synthesis drops below some certainty threshold. still funny tho
Haven't used cursor, but I don't see why an LLM wouldn't just randomly do that.
Not exactly, he thinks that the watermark is part of the copyrighted image and that removing it is such a transformative intervention that the result should be considered a new, non-copyrighted image.
It takes some extra IQ to act this dumb.
