I think differences in the business determine whether the maintenance/understanding aspect is important. If developing an MVP for a pitch or testing markets then any negatives aren't much of a consideration.. if working in a matur

That's a great point. If we keep following the requirement for attestation to its logical conclusion we would end up replicating the entire server running the repository at the source, then the cycle repeats

If the entities democratizing access weren't companies worth hundreds of billions of dollars with a requirement to prioritize substantial returns for their investors, I'd agree with you!

Humans are punished for plagiarism all the time. Myriad examples exist of students being disenrolled from college, professionals being fired, and personal reputations tarnished forever. When a LLM is trained on copyright works and regurgita

Responses are always to check your prompts, and ensure you are using frontier models - along with a warning about how you will quickly be made redundant if you don't lift your game. AI is generally useful, and very useful for certain t

Why buy the book when big AI can add it to their training data. Multitudes of people can then enjoy slightly higher quality output without you being compensated a single cent.

Wheat, barley and similar plant life have done pretty well for themselves, perhaps they domesticated us?

Isn't the saved state still being sent as part of the prompt context with every prompt? The high token count is financially beneficial to the LLM vendor no matter where it's stored.

Governments change. Any group in society has the potential to become marginalized, and if all services are funneled through a single system it becomes very easy to selectively switch off access.

In my experience this approach is kicking the can down the road. Tech debt isn't paid down, it's being added to, and at some point in the future it will need to be collected. When the agent can't kick the can any more who is

School left me with the impression that hieroglyphs were primitive constructs - purely logographic and ideographic. It was a shock to later learn that they are also alphabetic and phonetic. The opportunities for creative expression are amaz

Those articles are just using the same examples (often verbatim) from the official docs. It's obvious that the authors haven't actually developed anything themselves. There may be a lot of quality material out there, and it's

Who's voice are you using when adding your hand crafted prose? Mimicking the style of the 80% or switching to your own? Perhaps I'm a Luddite, or just in the dissonance phase toward enlightenment, but at the moment I don't wa
