In the archetypal example IBM (or whoever it was) had to make sure the two engineering teams were never in the cafeteria together at the same time

Different but still derivative

You're looking at this as the infringer rather than the owner. How do you as a copyright owner prove you meaningfully arranged the work when you want to enforce your copyright?

In terms of adoption, "it's not settled" is even worse
515.
by bandrami 8mo ago
OTOH as of yesterday the output of the LLM isn't copyrightable, which makes licensing it difficult
516.

It really is like having an intern, then
517.

If you signed your name to the story you settled the agency question right there

Going to be hard to convince normies it can do harder things than that if it can't do that

This. I've been a sysadmin for a quarter of a century and have professionally written next to no software. I've debugged every system I've had to support at some point though. It's a very different skill set.

They have trouble adding two numbers accurately though

How is it not "outright fabrication"? Quotes were attributed to a subject that he didn't say. That's fabrication.
522.
by bandrami 8mo ago
"Make sure quotes in your article are things the subject actually said to you" is not something that should need a "learning moment".

The out-of-the-box stuff is supposed to be kind of stupid. Are you guys really not editing your own snippets and shortcuts? Have people really been typing out "def do_something(foo, bar, baz)\n\t" manually?
524.

That absolutely should be career-ending for a journalist, apology or no
525.
by bandrami 8mo ago
Right, it's a less-flexible paste macro you don't actually have control over. shrug
526.
by bandrami 8mo ago
I mean, in the sense that customizable snippets are more flexible and can cover a wider variety of use-cases, I guess?
527.
by bandrami 8mo ago
That sure sounds like you're describing customizable snippets, which AFAIK every major editor supports?
528.
by bandrami 8mo ago
I'm trying to think of a text editor that doesn't support customizable snippets and templates, and failing
529.
by bandrami 8mo ago
Genuine question re #1: does your text editor not already do that?
530.
by bandrami 8mo ago
That's actually a great point: judging by the dev team's commits at work there's an unprecedented amount of code being committed but it's not actually making it into releases any faster. Maybe the same thing is happening
531.
by bandrami 8mo ago
Is it though? Really? I'm still waiting for even one of my vendors, commercial or open source, to actually speed up their release cadence.
532.

I'd say that too if I were an AI CEO looking for funding
533.
by bandrami 8mo ago
Plenty of commits link to mailing list discussions about the proposed change, maybe something like that, with an archive of LLM sessions?

Huge and great news. Sri Lanka is hoping to get certification later this year too.

Man, they really got good at hitting that dopamine button, huh?

Come on, calling a round of vendor financing (which is what the NVIDIA money is) "funding" is eggregiously misleading. The only new money entering the sector from this is SoftBank's stake.

This is Jeremy Irons' argument in "Margin Call" too. But most people were unhappy with the secular result.

Your subscription fees didn't fully pay for the amortization on the chips you used for the inference.

I don't know that OpenAI specifically is the weak link but this definitely adds to the argument that the entire sector is a wash with the same three or four companies passing around the same $50B over and over. OpenAI is just the link
540.
by bandrami 8mo ago
It's not "continue" buying as much as this is NVIDIA fronting the money for (most of) the hardware OpenAI has already ordered from them. It's like borrowing rent money from your drug dealer.
