Well I definitely think the site is heavily botted, as it's trivially easy to do so. I was speaking more to moderation.

I think you're completely right to by skeptical, and I mostly agree with you. I'm also not that familiar with his work. But to play devil's advocate, working at consulting companies is probably the best way you're going

If you read the comment for more than half a second you'd see they're not questioning why someone would use PHP. They're asking why you would use this particular server over nginx/apache, given how robust their support i

What a tedious reply. They're genuinely asking what the technical reasons for wanting that would be. You're reading it in the silliest way possible.

The actual question is backwards: how do we keep the prompt and context small enough so the LLM doesn't start hallucinating basic rules of chess.

Definitely not. A human can write a chess engine without being very good at chess.

I think using AI for customer service is really, really ineffective, and it's plain to anybody that has interacted with it. It's a shame that we've had decades of shitty customer service from companies that have the most resp

This article is 2 months old when the event happened. And they didn't "bill them", they politely asked them on Twitter, and it looks like that went nowhere.

I don't think that really matters. I have already seen companies generating their own code and just QA testing it, with no software engineers in sight. Or they ask us to "review" their 10k loc PR in 2 hours. The spirit of the

These things are borderline useless with web search. It's amazing that they just throw out their entire training data and read you the first three things they found on the Internet.

I would rather have the opposite? I don't want 10 people making small apps that use Electron. I would rather that be used for bigger apps where the overhead is negligible.

Like I said, in my experience I would rather do this with a bunch of tiny prompts than try to craft something that oneshots it. Chances are it will do several things I don't want, no matter how clear I think I'm being.

Maybe. Do you have an example of a prompt you've done recently? I don't think it's valuable at all to try and craft a specific prompt to "one-shot" a task, I'm way faster just doing small asks and guiding it. A

I don't really do anything at my job that could be done in a single prompt, and certainly not something that would take me 7 hours. A 7 hour task would take multiple iterations with how LLMs are right now. You said it would do overnigh
