Why does Microsoft always create so many ugly, confusing, and ridiculous product names? The worst of them all is ".Net" (which is really confusing).

And when Anthropic released the successor to Claude 3.5 Sonnet, they called it…

Why are men ridiculously delusional in the women they want/approach? I'm not a troll. This is a real question. Why does a fat, pot bellied, unkempt, balding, stupid (ergo poor) man, tell a woman above his league that she isn't hot enough for him?

Claude 3.5 Sonnet.

When Google released the next version of Gemini 1.5 Pro, they called it Gemini 1.5 Pro-002 (I wish I was joking, but I’m not).

It’s not just Microsoft. Look at the way top AI companies these days name their foundation models.

They didn’t even bother to change the name. What the fuck, guys.

When OpenAI released their successor to GPT-4, they called it GPT-4o. Their next model after that was called o1.
