LLM are so insanely terrible at this that I constantly have to moderate my prompts with “maybe this isn’t true” or “maybe I am misunderstanding this explanation” to get them to STOP crumbling into dust over the slightest pressure. That’s WI

There is a pretty small set of things I think people have a duty to know in our very open and comfortable first world. Civics is the main one that is being catastrophically neglected as pointed out by some other comments here. A majority of

Yeah, biased in favor of people who can think critically. All litmus tests are biased, they are designed to kick out a group of people, pointing out that bias is strange. Just because liberals tend to end up in the in-group doesn’t mean the

Billions of OUR dollars. Dumped into the MIC for Iran, wasting billions more of our dollars by surging energy prices. Then spending billions more to kill wind projects. Adding at least a billion to his own wallet. How many billions of dolla

They don’t need to keep a low profile, they have the president and his family using their services for enrichment. They are immune from consequence, might as well advertise at maximum and unleash hell for the most gain. This is why principl

It’s not possible to truly estimate what our military costs would be without those conflicts, but I would be interested in our energy costs if you incorporated the military costs into that. I’m willing to bet we pay more than nearly anyone

I literally don’t understand, and have a deep distrust of people who say we haven’t seen deceleration. The diminishing returns are colossal. GPT 4 is more than 3 years old now, and while Sol is definitely better, it’s better at a tremendous

I have ADHD and noticed an INVERSE effect of caffeine for years, it would mostly just make me tired. That was before being properly medicated with a stimulant. After that, caffeine works the same as anyone else. It’s very weird. In the inte

It can be a skill, but a very soft skill like keeping control of and educating 30 kindergarten students. It’s a skill, hard earned and nebulous. you can recognize it clearly when you see it, but it’s very hard to define/measure numeric

Haven’t found a model yet that really orchestrates in a way that reflects how learning works. Or at least, how I learn. I can get them into different teaching/learning “modes” and configure those modes appropriately, but they don’t kno

It doesn’t seem like it’s a huge ask imo, and I’m also pretty surprised that they have such limited support, a mostly text format like epub really should be simple to add functionality for. Less surprising but still annoying is how many hoo

Police are, in the most generous light, just as fallible and likely to abuse power as the rest of us. You can loosely define power as “Effect minus repercussion”. Massive effects like the nuclear football have massive repercussions like th

Good lord, and I thought it couldn’t any worse just with “boy George” “new song” and “pro Israel”. Adding “using AI” is brutal. Could only get worse if you add something like “published by the Epstein estate”

Validation is really hard and requires a great understanding of the entire relevant code. So to answer your question, they don’t know or asked the AI to do that too which has very obvious problems. I find it hard to believe they would spen
