My eureka moment when I first started using Cursor a few weeks back was realising that I talking to it the same way I talk to my three year old and the results were fairly good (less so from my boy at times).
- IshKebab 1y agoYeah it's also kind of funny people discovering all the LLM failure modes and saying "see! humans would never do that! it's not really intelligent!". None of those people have children...
- Chinjut 1y agoI don't want a computer that's as unreliable as a child. This is not what originally interested me about computers.
- IshKebab 1y agoNobody said you did. I'm talking about the confidently incorrect assertions that humans would never display any of these unreliable behaviours.
- tripzilch 1y agoThey don't. At least not for the duration that LLMs keep it up. They really don't. If you want to pretend that being a 3 year old is not a transient state, and that controlling an AI is just like parenting an eternal 3 year old, there's probably a manga about that.

- tripzilch 1y agoMaybe because none of those people are imagining children to be eternally stuck at that level of intelligence. At that age (regardless of being a parent or not) you can literally see them getting smarter over the course of weeks or months.
