>These two points seem slightly conflicting. Why if a human is truly more creative than AI, must it experience "the magic and absurdity of life" if it can be creative without "combining things into output"? I agree, y

How errors add depend upon how you treat them. Two independent task? You have a 95% chance of each task being correct, so total success is .95^2 = 90.25% correct. Having two AIs verify the same task with each being 95% correct? That'

I see an AI as an advanced calculator, but I see even a simple calculator as a poison to education if not strongly controlled. Number sense is such a nebulous concept, but it captures what I've seen people struggle with. A general six

Are court decisions universally recognized? If a court rules someone true in one area, couldn't it still be considered slander/libel in another area if another court rules it as not being true? It is a bit like saying convicted m

I think it might be built on something more than deterministic systems. Some property that is a subset of deterministic, so all your argument still apply, but merely being deterministic is not good enough. LLMs are what made me start consi

Never really like this because it feels some arbitrary as to what counts as making a claim. Human language is filled with implications, and those implications are filled with implied claims. Yet burden or proof seems mostly used when some

But why does it do so inconsistently, and sometimes even forgetting to swap back to English when it comes time to do 'normal' output? It also seems recent, as when I was using deepseek even a week ago this was very rare compared

I don't think that is the argument. The argument is more "I want to do good thing X, but it will also cause bad thing Y." followed by "Wait, bad thing Y is going to happen anyways, so I might as well do good thing X so

Is this self contradictory? Making a claim of 3 star service, without providing 3 star service evidence, isn't any different than a claim like they don't clean the dishes enough. Sure, you didn't write out the exact words, b

Nothing of the level of rocket failure, but I've tracked down issues where you are never sure of the cause. You keep the doubt and let it drive you. You aren't as much sure of a theory, as you have the theory you most want to di

Depends upon the filtering system. Consider indie games. If there are 10 of them and 5 are great, you don't need any filter. You look through 5 great and 5 not so great games and end up with 5 great ones. Now go to a world where indi

Isn't this still assuming we can even determine what is true or false? Newtonian physics is false, but it works well enough we teach it in college. But our best models of physics are currently in disagreement, so can we even say they
