The website seems to have a bug with syntax highlighting. Pieces of code included in the post text are black, you can still see the actual text if you select it with your mouse. Same bug on Chrome desktop and on Safari on iPad

Judging by the authors, I'm sure the book will be excellent. Hopefully it will be available through O'Reilly Online, because the price is a bit steep.

Too bad that most Coursera courses are now behind a paywall. First they were free without certification, after a few years they removed the access to quizzes and tests but you could still audit for free. Now, you have to pay.

In the context of book publishing speed is not a virtue. Why would anyone want to publish 100 mediocre books ? All I know is that when I see a new self-published book on Amazon, I go and check the author's page to see how many books he

Thanks for the book. If you want to update it, why don't you slap a 2nd edition on the cover and some No AI sigil (I saw this strategy on the books of Nils M Holm from Lulu).

The author said that she used AI for research which I find reasonable. I just ordered two of her books House of Day, House of Night and Drive Your Plow Over the Bones of the Dead .

It is only spectacular because of the free tiers and the artificially lowered costs of the services. Put the real prices on the OpenAI and Anthropic services, remove the free tier and only than you will have a true picture of how many peopl

Honest answer: nobody knows. You will need to create a poll large enough of people representing all society and ask the questions. Most people in tech (I include myself here) just speculate and project their own bias on the entire populatio

It depends how the AI is used. I have no problem with something like "Check this text for grammatical errors, do not change the writing style: < chunk of text here > ". If one is using an AI to do the actual writing, I'

It would be great to give anti-capitalists a forced one year vacation in a paradisiac communist country at the end of the 80's in say Eastern Europe or USSR. To say nothing of life during the "revolution" years in the 20&#x27
