I find Wolfram's computational irreducibility is a very important aspect when dealing with modern LLMs, because for them it can be reduced (here it can) to "some questions shouldn't be inferred, but computed". From recen

It's interesting. The question from the paper "Darling, please be honest: have I gained weight?" assumes that the "socially acceptability" of the answer should be taken into account. In this case the problem fits th

What you described would be a great solution for plenty of tasks, but maybe solving some fallacies one at a time would also be great. For example, when we're sure by placing a properly named file at a directory location, we will find i

It's interesting, if we assume that the microbiota "wants" something (like other viruses or bacteria trying to affect the host in some way) and learned it evolutionary then when inside a human it tends to avoid other humans p

From the release "..You can try out a preview version of Magistral Medium in Le Chat..", I suppose it's when the drop down in "Thinking" mode is either slow or fast (limited to 3 queries per day). My favorite from t

I think you invented (or reinvented) a simplified password manager, or a plain-text password manager. A usual PM solves the task of managing by human memory unmanageable: plenty of passwords with variable complexities routing them all to a

Good points. Also looking at your original example I noticed that not only humans can explain regularities they expect in many different ways (also correcting along the way), they can basically ask LLM to base the result on a reference. In

The programming languages are more predictable than human. So the rules are much easier to be "compressed" after they're basically detected when fed with big data. Your two examples imho are easily interchangeable during foll

From my perspective LLMs shine in programming languages because they (languages) are invented by people to be more formal so they are more predictable. Even for syntactically different programming languages there are similarities we don&#x2

Good point. Some time ago I came up with a philosophical interpretation that although literally time machines don't exist, humanity already invented them, they are called photos and videos. You can't change the past, but you can v

Showing a random photo from the past is a nice feature. Used to have it on an Android tablet where an idle lock screen slideshow allowed this. There are also windows in different programs where I don't mind having a random picture as a

I'd argue that there's another perspective, more complimentary to US politics. There's obviously a list of "experts" aligned with RT narrative which they use depending on the topic. No media like RT wants someone fr

Good point. On the Daily podcast (NYT) Goldberg was asked what was in the chat after the strikes. He said a plenty of different emojis. Goldberg's reaction was also interesting, he thought at the moment that every workplace is the same

I wonder whether a possible audio similarities analyzer would be capable of detecting influences described by the creators themselves. For example, in a podcast, Tal Bachman said that making his most famous hit "She's So High&quot

With eInk screens it's an interesting story. Because when your page is shown, there is no need for CPU at all for keeping it, so in an ideal world for such devices every page flip is a micro-cycle of waking up from the deep sleep, doin

Unless they also make the patents coming with it public, it would be of no use. As long as I remember, Microsoft has no good history of purchasing patents and making them public. Google has (vp7,vp8, Webm as an evolution). But probably some

An interesting discussion between two good authors. Regarding the usage comments in code I'm sure the topic is hot and guaranteed to produce tons of comments on HN. Personally, I would comment more, but it needs time, motivation and th

"I envy him" - when I read at HN in comments when people discuss something I don't know, I envy them. I suspect that OP is also more about this (reading from his frustration), but "knowing something" doesn't al

I see no issue in setting it dynamically from the code, supposed to be set during start-up code. A global variable representing a function pointer and this variable either changed several times (if the latest addition allows execution of pr

Very interesting also as a thought-provoking idea. For example - It would be less challenging if function pointers variables are used instead of function. In this case, the code appended later may override the function variables it need

On a little technical side, the cross-platform engine of KOReader is developed in Lua and low level stuff like drawing and eInk specifics is different for every device. I think this separation might be very noticable for anyone running it o

It's interesting. Recently I came up with a question that I posted to different LLMs with different results. It's about the ratio between GDP (PPP adjusted) to general GDP. ChatGPT was good, but because it found a dedicated web pa

I think that sometimes making drastic UI changes like MS Office did is one of negative incentives of commercial software. They always need something visually noticeable to justify added value of new versions.

I think the project is great, but for me it is connected now to an empiric rule of big complex projects with a large user base: An issue will be fixed more or less quickly if it affects millions/thousands of users, otherwise it will li

Good point. LLMs can be treated as "theories" and then they definitely meet falsifiability [1] allowing researchers finding "black swans" for years to come. Theories in this case can be different. But if the theory is of

Why can't other AI tasks be also in focus? Like having fun with some creativity. I remember that I once created a story with an LLM when we switched sides. I still remember some of the twists and it's interesting that I no longer

It's ironic that progress that freed many people from hard agricultural jobs and allowed society to free part of the population from daytime jobs was mostly directed at non-child-bearing categories like children and teens (to learn and
