certainly! There are pro's and con's to fire still today. Us fireless plebs prefer a life much closer to nature, eating our meat raw and bathing in the mud.

I think bill gates summarized it pretty well in a recent letter [1]. There are pro's and con's to every new technology. Learning can be greatly accelerated with the use of llm's but you have to use them the right way. Just li

I like the analogy but can't believe it is not generated slop. Just curious how deep the integration of agentic LLMs is in your social media presence?

Clearly the author is not a native english speaker (from the other blog posts) i found skimming it interesting nonetheless, i hate slop as much as the next guy but appreciate the language barrier braking qualities of llms.

I believe that what the previous commment is trying to say is that even when we identify phrases highly attributable to llm output we can never be certain. Which is the nefarious thing about broad use of computer generated text. I noticed c

oh we do! At least they google is quite good at adhering to robots.txt.

Who the fuck is going to hold these AI companies responsible for running these gigantic semi-autonomous botnets on investors dime?

I haven't touched it in ages. But I always felt that it SC2 was more successful in taking out APM and "Deathball" mechanics. I remember a lot of cheese options and nuances. I guess there is just a big spread between balancing

Congrats on your map! I am leaning more towards the optimism side. Like you I've had some real breakthroughs myself. Personal akin your garden map, no where near solving millennium problems. My take is that all these (Fable solves this

You know, it could have been more than one person. At this point I don't think it really matters, unless he/she starts selling their coins.

A game changer for me was the link hints extension on firefox and chrome: instantly enabled a lot of websites to be keyboard-driven.

Michael Burry managed just fine, I believe. Secondly, I think the "in every case" is too strongly worded. I am working in an org right now where it has not happened yet. Perhaps it is only a matter of time, but let me have my opti

My take is that when the bubble bursts good software will remain. Right now all the big players are hiding the cost. Anthropic (in my mind) is especially egregious at tokenmaxxing without telling you whats going on. A simple request to edit

Thank you for the insight! Are you going back to the changelog and editing the CVE-PENDING? I think this would be a justifiable edit of the release history that I'm not sure is possible on github.

Is the simulator faster than this? I would suspect so.

Yea, my bet is that there is quite a long list of money bags sitting behind the leadership team that will weigh in if the offer is juicy enough.

Many interesting metaphors to find, "it's like the printing press", "it's like IDE's", "it's like going from hardwired programming to assembly language". At the same time it's unlike an

Become a manager? retire? I write code in my work, and enjoy it. I also write less directly because of llm's but get to read more (which I luckily also enjoy, as long as I understand what is going on). I think you made more of a snide

Nature v. Nuture. Age long debate, not to be solved here... but an interesting fact about this I heard in a huberman podcast. There are regions in you brain that will only get activated at a certain age (different in men and women) that wil

I think the argument against anthropomorphizing is not really about how you interact (chat) with an llm but rather how you treat it in the context of its status in work/society. There are still important differences between humans and

Woa. I'm with you all the way but let's agree that the people who think the disabled should be exterminated is a minority many of whom died at then end of world war II? Even if I tolerated someone else exterminating people, hell

I'm happy to give some lazy dude smoking weed all day my tax money. 1. Working gives me satisfaction and money. 2. A lot more people are doing worse things with my tax money. 3. I don't envy that lifestyle in the slightest... if s

Very elegantly put! So much so in fact, that I finally put down my phone to grab my laptop in order to write this. I have had a similar much cruder version of this thought: LLMs are not human, they don't know what it's like to stu

There is a good podcast on this topic: hot money (2022) from the Financial Times: https://www.ft.com/content/762e4648-06d7-4abd-8d1e-ccefb74b3... spoiler: visa and mastercard do act as a morality police.
