A tool like this should live in service to the legal profession. Like Copilot, without a human verifying, improving, and maintaining the work, it is risky (possibly negligent) to provide this service to end users.

I did not get the same point you did out of the article. The point I got is to be more intentional about being distracted, and to use a phone or a computer as a tool instead of an attention crutch. By reducing the phone's ability to ea

As a giver of one of these notes, I would imagine you have decided to stand against bribery no matter the outcome of the scenario where it is given. Hopefully reason wins out and the situation ends amicably. To address the bribery problem,

Assuming these papers are at the boundary of human knowledge, what would these AIs be trained on? How much authority should rest on an LLM reporting that, statistically, the paper’s tokens appear to match up with that trained model?

The DC-10 cargo door issue was unprecedented in its time, and the first failure was smoothed over with a phone call from the CEO to the FAA, instead of an airworthiness directive. The plane wasn’t grounded until the second incident killed a

Could the sort be another form? Taking the article’s example, I could sort a bunch of tables by height or weight or some other attribute. That sort order then takes on a form that was not there prior to the sort. To think of it another way,

In the stream today I recall Kit saying something about how they would like to localize it at some point. He didn't give any ETAs for the feature, though.

One of the main points of this article is to "just use locks", which glosses over a lot of technical complications about locking elements within a document. How long is the lock held? Can it be stolen from a user who has gone offl

I am especially intrigued by how this book so effortlessly combines prose and code. It looks like literate programming, but the source code on GitHub doesn't appear to have those annotations. Does anyone know what software was used to

My company doesn’t have official PTO. They used to, but had to track the untaken time off as unpaid debt to Wall Street. They since changed to a more fluid arrangement between manager and employee that is not officially tracked. The old sys
