I keep a VM with windows on it. Unfortunately you have to purchase a license. Hopefully I'll be able to upgrade it like they've allowed since ~Vista. But now anyone tracking user agents knows I'm not using Microsoft. I didn&#

Add another layer of jank to review the original jank? That doesn't sound like a very helpful solution. But the companies selling AI will love it!

But the models change every 3-6 months. What's the use of learning what they can and can't do when what they can and can't do changes so frequently?

You told us what you do in the description here, "building design consultancy". But I clicked the link before reading through. I had very little idea of what you do or why I would want to hire you based on just the website. Those

I thought everyone realized by now that a digital image made available via block chain or any other mechanism, can be duplicated indefinitely. The only thing you get is a copyright on some generated image or set of bits. And what are the ch

It would be interesting to compare a person trained in an area, asking questions as a student, with answers from LLMs vs an average set of people. Of course that would require scientific funding and someone experienced in the field to set i

You shouldn't have to maintain your ability to code in your off time. Is your company one of those that's requiring AI only coding?

He doesn't have to fiddle with the model because he gets to inject his own opinion into the context MitM style. But I get what you're saying now, a fact checker available to query during an online discussion would be helpful. Assu

Grok is a bot that: 1) sometimes goes mechahitler 2) was trained to be biased against empathy and understanding (because woke). 3) is customized to spout Elon's opinions as fact. Claiming it is "objective and rational" seems

First it was a model issue, then it was a prompting issue, then it was a context issue, then it was an agent issue, now it's a harness issue. AI advocates keep accusing AI skeptics of moving goalposts. But it seems like every 3-6 month

I think we are still 25+ years away from that kind of automation. People are still confusing plausible text generation with adaptable dynamic intelligence. See also: "Shall I implement it? No."[0] We are getting some awesome tools

Splitting mauls have a wider angle to help separate wood pieces and a beefier back to use with/as a sledgehammer or splitting wedge. What's rendered is definitely more like an axe than a splitting maul.
