Hahaha. I remember when musk and his merry band of sycophants were bragging about grok producing the only physically accurate bicycle. What happened?

Maybe a better approach would be to stop trying to get a product out of a slot machine?

LLM chatbots are software designed to manipulate, addict, and mine data. Just like social media before it. But anyone who bothers to read the output in a domain they understand will discover they aren't all that no matter who OpenAI

Please tell me they are going to have independent computer scientists and security experts to ask questions that expose the doomerism/"rationalist" LessWrong bullshit. Please don't just let him spew talking points desig

You'd think that believing they are going to destroy humanity would motivate them.

Seems these things about genAI are fairly well established at this point. Hence the vast majority disapproval of genAI being forced on users and broad rejection of AI data centers. Did you have a substantive response for any of the three ma

It's all of the above. The unreliable empty garbage they barf out, threats to destroy jobs for oligarch asshat profit, and the resource hungry pillaging of neighborhoods. Oh, yeah, and also the crappy mush up of stolen art.

We have been able to stage reckless experiments with janky tools the entire time. Used to be it got you thrown in jail or at least a visit by the FBI. Says more about the tech bro dipshits than the tech, if you ask me.

Thank you to the author for disclosing slop writing up front. I appreciate you respecting your readers time.

And yet, curiously, they fall flat on their silicone asses until they have a copy of the test to "train on".

75 years and counting and considering we don't have any plan to get to a single one of those things, I'm going to say 75 years. Computation alone is at least 30 years. You may not appreciate the complexity of biological systems, b

Isn't that primarily what they offer anyway? So "subscription required" would check that box.

Maybe they'll ask for a "slower pace of development" so it doesn't look as much like they're just asking for new regulatory barriers on their competition.

I am 100% certain the code you write by hand will be better quality, even with AI pointing out options, than letting the AI string together completely obtuse abstractions.

by daveguy 12d ago
Yup. More hype mania from someone with a financial interest in people abdicating their thought to AI.

Rapid, empty, and poorly integrated code that appears to work but no one bothers to understand is much less valuable than everyone seems to believe.

It's something an LLM would never be able to come up with because it requires a depth of experience that LLMs just don't have. It's authentically human.

I'm not sure why you think I was assuming that. Or why either of those wouldn't be a valid reason their actions shouldn't result in punishment the most direct way possible to the parent. A loss for their own team. That&#x27

by daveguy 13d ago
This makes more sense. Automatic loss for the offending parent.

Result is a permanent cancellation? Does that mean the match is nullified or the winner at the time wins? Either way, one team could draw a strategic black card. Seems like cancellation of the match is not the correct outcome. What about p

But.... Money. (as if no one understands this is regulatory capture and/or failure to improve... aka Money)
22.
by daveguy 13d ago
Wait... Which of the 2 did Altman not do where Amodei did? I mean, maybe not quite 8 attempts at regulatory capture. But come on. And the only reason OpenAI didn't get blacklisted is they rolled over for the worst applications.

One question: did you jump straight from programming to depending on the AI without looking at the code? If so, I've got some bad news for you.

The illusions of thinking produced by a "thinking trace" is just as ignorant of reality as the first and last tokens. All they know of reality is the tokens in their context.

by daveguy 13d ago
The problem is, LLMs have such little understanding of the world around them. "Find exploits in specific software on this device" may as well be "find exploits".

I would love for good governance principles to seep into corporations rather than the other way around. Seems about time the direction reversed.

by daveguy 13d ago
Or you might find out how little people care about AI. Which would not bode well for bearing load.

by daveguy 13d ago
Yeah, vibe coding produces shit software.

The point isn't what happens after something is solved. Where is the motivation for humans to study/find a potential solution if your kids are going to starve while you do it? These things can brute force problems that have a cle

It also takes human labor to run an effective nigerian prince scam. That doesn't make it okay.
