That's exactly right. I hav set up a system where customer success and sales can drop in artifacts of customers talking about what they value (emails, transcripts, etc) and skills analyS them and then use them to add context to issues

I don't understand your intended distinction with the rolls royces analogy. Would you expand? Also, I may not have as robust understanding of anarchism... Does anarchism incorporate game theory and account for tensions between competit

Shame on me for assuming the words you wrote were the words you meant. I assumed that by "unrestricted capitalism" you meant laissez faire, or in alignment with how it's defined in textbooks, Google, or any modern LLM model,

I agree the Gemini chat bot is too strongly opinionated about how it responds. I don't like their system prompt. However the underlying model accessed via API with custom system prompts that direct toward pedagogical best practices per

A balance between democracy, free speech and capitalism are worth fighting for, protecting, and are an engine for prosperity. They aren't any less sustainable than life itself or any other framework societies have run on. I am all for

Some words are new and their definitions haven't settled. "Unrestricted" is not one of them.

Gemini is a series with a lot of individual models. What you are describing doesn't match my experience at all with Gemini 3 or 3.1, especially the pro version.

Capitalism is an extension of nature. Nature can be cruel, but it's still nature. Blaming capitalism for what's happening in America is like blaming an engine for a car not having seatbelts.

Uhh... The idea that democracy doesn't exist in the world is not something that I currently agree with. Did you mean to say direct democracy? Very similar take on free speech vs absolute free speech. Did your definition mean to include

Gemini seems better trained for learning and I think Google has made a more deliberate effort to optimize for pedagoical best practices. (E.g. tutoring, formative feedback, cognitive load optimization) As far as academic research is concern

> What needs a rethink is how education, especially CS education, is imparted given the existence of these tools. This is true of most of the education system. It all needs a rethink.

Knowledge can be transferred but understanding has to be earned from experience (doing something and getting some sort of feedback). LLMs are commoditizing knowledge, qnd the result will be a relative increase in the value of human understa

It's hard to untangle states from their derivatives when determining causes and effects in complex systems. Maybe social fabric breaking down is a consequence of phase transitions, maybe it's a natural part of collective lifecycle

Yes they said "relative superabundance". Relative to history there is an abundance of most good and services (including food and housing). As a Gen Z or Gen A I'm sure it doesn't feel this way, but that's mostly bec

The problem isn't AI, the problem is a generation addicted to social media that sells their attention to the highest bidder. How expensive do you think it would be to convince 30 million people of something that wasn't true? Who m

I'm confused. It seems the parent comment is saying AI proliferation could make cost of goods drop orders of magnitude and you say it's detached from reality because people don't want goods, they want housing food and gas? Ho

This is interesting because there is a cheating epidemic going on in higher education and I'm continuously wondering what happens if it isn't resolved. Students cheating with impunity breeds more students cheating, into a spiral u

I didn't say instructure engineers were bad. What I meant is they aren't capable of building AI capable of replacing professors. I still consider it a reasonable assumption, as it has nothing to do with how well engineered canvas

I'm sure the engineers at instructure are not capable of building systems that can do that. You give them too much credit.

There is a major logic flaw in what you're saying. 'If I am a grocery store that pays $1 for oranges and sells them for $0.50, I can't say, "I don't have enough oranges."' How about 'if I'm a gro

The article is gesturing at real problems that warrant solutions but is riddled with intellectual dishonesty. It doesn't seem designed to make a valid actionable case for change. It seems it's designed just to get people who don&#

If that's true, it's painfully tragic. Still comes off as jaded and pessimistically biased. Not representative of whole white collar, just some segment in it. It's VERY different than my direct experience, and indirect exposu
