The AirGradient is the third item in the comparison table.

I guess you're paying for the irrelevant "playful" aspects and the portability.

My mistake, thanks for pointing it out.

Isn't this too expensive compared to something like an air gradient which costs 140$ when you assemble it yourself? (AirGradient is also missing from the comparison table)

So I asked GPT-o4-mini-high

"On what date will the new moon occur on in August 2025. Use a tool to verify the date if needed"

It correctly reasoned it did not have exact dates due to its cutoff and did a lookup.

"The new moon in August 2025 falls on Friday, August 22, 2025"

Now, I did not specify the timezone I was in so our timing between 22 and 23 appears to be just a time zone difference at it had marked an time of 23:06 PDT per its source.

Response from Gemini 2.5 Pro for comparison -

``` Based on the search results, the new moon in August 2025 will occur late on Friday, August 22nd, 2025 in the Pacific Time Zone (PDT), specifically around 11:06 PM.

In other time zones, like the Eastern Time Zone (ET), this event falls early on Saturday, August 23rd, 2025 (around 2:06 AM). ```

With these being 1M context size, does that all but confirm that Quasar Alpha and Optimus Alpha were cloaked OpenAI models on OpenRouter?

Yes, OpenRouter confirmed it here - https://x.com/OpenRouterAI/status/1911833662464864452

This page seems to have formatting issues on mobile (at least on mine -- pixel 9 pro running chrome browser, worth looking into).

Free, for only $2 per month!

Plus Google gets to use your data for training. That has interesting implications. What goes in as training data often comes out later as replies to questions.

I spent a week there very recently (like 3 weeks ago) and checked the prices a lot. It was always around 50%-100% higher than Uber. It was never even close to 20% higher.

I took a couple of trips for the novelty value (as someone else mentioned, it's by far the best tourist attraction in SF at the moment!). The experience was really great - very relaxing - but there's no way I'd use it if I just wanted transport. I can see women paying a premium for it out of fear of taxi drivers, but that's not really an issue for me. I would maybe pay a small premium to avoid awkward lack of conversation, and the bad driving of typical taxi drivers, but not 50%!

This post compares prices in LA: https://www.reddit.com/r/waymo/s/sU6l51A0XD. It's inline with what I mentioned above.

Well currently Waymo is about double the price of Uber. But yes hopefully one day it will be cheaper.

This is not accurate in my experience in SF. Most of the time, the price is comparable to UberX and during peak-times, the price is upto 20% higher than UberX.
