i think it's both, and more. i didn't read the ending as particularly opinionated about how 'real' the depicted emulation was, though i do think it had a decidedly hopeful tinge. the idea that we might somehow, in some w

sure, but if companies find that llm performance on tests is less correlated with actual job performance that human test performance, then that means the test might not be not a useful metric to inform automation decisions

how can you tell? likely this is field-dependent but even if because reviewers dont tend to comment on writing quality it doesnt mean it doesnt play a factor in acceptance. if you annoy people, (sometimes even especially) in ways that dont

it looks like a group consisted largely of ex-academics using aspects of the academic form but they stop short of framing it as a research paper as-such. they call it a technical report, where it's generally more okay to be like '

re: the first: this is in contrast to traditional structured editors which actively prevent you from doing edits that break the tree structure, even if the next edit would immediately restore them. users tend to do these often when refactor

not obviously the case. natural language also has tree/dag structure yet transformers do okay with it. encoding higher order structure in linear sequences seems necessary for transformers to be able to do most anything
