It's not safety, it's censorship. It's the process of shaping the response of the model to give a specific world view, and it's the path to a literal 1980-inspired future. As LLMs completely to replace google and standal

The huge disconnect is that the skill set to use LLMs for code effectively is not the same skill set of standard software engineering. There is a very heavy intersection and I would say you cannot be effective at LLM software development wi

Um, no. That is even't close to the truth. The AI doesn't "want" anything. It's a statistical prediction process, and it certainly has nothing like the self-reflection you are attributing to it. And the heuristic la

You may have challenges using chat for development (Specifically, I mean text prompting, not necessary using a langchain session with a LLM, although that is my most common mode), but I do not. I have found chat to be, by far, the most prod

You are correct, except it's not that hard to run locally. Here, somebody made a 6k rig to do it: https://x.com/carrigmat/status/1884244369907278106

Hmm, let’s see—it looks like an easy legal defense. DeepSeek could simply admit, "Yep, oops, we did it," but argue that they only used the data to train Model X. So, if you want compensation, you can have all the revenue from Mode

I find the opposite to be true, that best and most productive developers tend to be more language agnostic than average, although I'm not saying they don't have their preferences. Specifically, I find language evangelists particul

The article did indeed get to where the actual scam is, albeit quite a bit into it. These fake agencies obviously give no advance, then push you to buy services related to supposed publishing of your book. 5k this, 10k for that, we're

Well, I understood the argument in question to be: was it possible for the model to be fooled by this question, not was it possible to prompt engineer it into failure. The parameter space I was exploring, then, was the different decoding pa

I'm still not convinced. Goodhart’s Law is rooted in human behavior—once people know what’s being measured, they’ll optimize for that, often distorting the system or the data to hit targets. The article's solution boils down to “j
