It literally says “AI can make mistakes.” And yeah, I’m sure everything else on the Internet was true before.

It’s in the nature of empirical reality that scientific measurements can be wrong.

Do LLMs knowingly make mistakes? Do we sue scientists for unintentional procedural errors?

What if they just make a mistake, unintentionally?

Deterministic responses are not expected from something clearly labeled able to make mistakes.

Should we hold scientists and journalists liable if they say false things or misrepresent things?

I think the TAM for both is reasonable (it's just generic "Enterprise" stuff, at the end of the day), but I think Starlink is better able to capture a larger portion of its TAM.

Comcast is not a rapidly growing company, though. This isn’t hypothetical. SpaceX is increasing Starlink revenue by like 50% per year. And their current Starlink constellation, about 10,000 satellites, has been launched entirely by Falcon 9

SpaceX will run out of things to profitably launch with Starship once they launch Starlink V3 (a few hundred launches per year), and orbital datacenters provides effectively unlimited launch demand. Like Starlink was for Falcon 9, orbital d

It did. After the merger with SpaceX, the Xai debt got renegotiated at a very low rate.

It’s literally just a satellite with GPUs on it. SpaceX already has about 100MW of satellites in orbit. They’re making an upgraded version of these satellites, V3, designed for launch on Starship. Making a bigger versions of those with larg

That already happened with the merger of X with XAI and then the merger of Xai and SpaceX. But the reason is because SpaceX is trying to tool up for orbital datacenters. They're building a bunch of solar cell manufacturing plants and S

It’s a function of altitude. They keep pushing the altitude lower. This is not the only option, although it has a lot of advantages.

Starlink satellites can likely have their life extended by quite a bit, like past constellation satellites did. But it doesn’t really matter as SpaceX is still upgrading capability like crazy. Starship will mean a factor of 10-100x Starlink

Stack Overflow and Reddit for years have told people to just Google it. And then the Google result is people saying to just Google it, instead of actually being helpful.

I bow to your correction. I was using LLMs as a sloppy shorthand for modern AI agents with best interfaces.

LLMs are not a site. They are a clever person that can point you to sites. They, like humans, are fallible.

Or… the default LLM Google uses for search has been quantized to s**. Ask a proper Thinking model, with browsing enabled, and odds of a correct answer are much higher. There’s been substantial improvement in AI in even the last year. Ask a

I think we’re getting what we deserve by snarkily telling people to Google stuff instead of answering accurately. Google results have never ever been pure accuracy

I don’t understand this. Elon thought of a way to virtually eliminate the land, heat, water, and energy impacts of datacenters, and because it makes his companies money instead of being non-profit, this is bad? Maybe I do get it. It’s not a

I really doubt your veracity about this. It’s literally illegal for billionaires to geoengineer the Earth to stop global warming (at least in several states). Doubtless you would also object to that as well. In which case it’s not actually

Geoengineering of Earth is remarkably easy. The reason it’s not already being done is political, not technical or even necessarily economic. For less than NASA’s budget, it’s possible to do things like stratospheric solar radiation manageme
