But isn't the problem is that one shouldn't ever trust an LLM to only ever do what it is explicitly instructed with correct resolutions to any instruction conflicts? LLMs are " unreliable ", in a sense that when using LL

I suspect it all boils down to attention, which, in turn, can be converted into money, votes, actions (or lack thereof) or other stuff. "Disincentivize" is probably a better term.

I believe the power disparity is the fundamental issue, not the monetization. In most situation an individual has no abilities to negotiate anything, and given that we're social animals and conformance plays an important role voting wi

I suspect the disappointment wasn't about whenever LLMs exhibit cognitive-like properties or not, but rather about the negative connotations tied to the word "plagiarism". Yea, they replicate patterns from their training data

Oh, my bad, I should've phrased it differently. I didn't mean that they're necessarily busy and have to handle a lot of matters, but rather that a lot of things are happening around them. It surely can be stressful even if on

I think it's rather the opposite - there's way too much going on in their life, specifically stuff that they have no control over, so they vent all that stress wherever they can.

I'm sorry, but I do not think I understand the idea why and how Studio Ghibli is being "ripped off" in this scenario. As I've said, art styles are not considered copyrightable. You say I'm missing the point but I fa

by drdaeman 2y ago
Can you please explain how did you jump to this conclusion? I fail to see how artistic expression would cease to be a thing and how people will stop liking novelty. And as long as those are a thing, original styles will also be a thing. If

Hate to say this but the incentive is growth, not progress. Progress is what enabled the growth, but is also extremely hard to plan and deliver. On the other hand, hype is probably somewhat easier and well-tested approach so no surprise lot

Services that take on Google can not just win over some user base but even become profitable (see Kagi's example), so it's not strictly about $0 price tag. But they gotta be really good (for some target audience), and the hard par

I'm sorry, I don't really know Airflow, but what's the point of `@task.agent`, as compared to plain old `return my_agent.run_sync(...)`? To me it feels like a more restrictive[1], and possibly less intuitive[2] API. [1]: Limi

I'm afraid that'll only result in some people using those inappropriately then other people using `reflect` to mutate those objects. Just like with "private" methods and fields when library authors create a good library

In your code, in the `ensure` part you want `SET synchronous_commit TO DEFAULT` instead of the explicit `on` ( https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/sql-set.html ) Then, I suspect you may probably rather want to u

Thank you! I'm not sure I agree with the idea of us prioritizing completeness. I don't think the laws can or need to cover any possible life situation. I mean, there aren't any laws about whenever someone can or cannot wave a

I'm curious, why have you concluded that it's naive to build a formal model out of a legal document? I'm not sure about making laws better, but surely a machine can replace lawyers for trivial and well-defined things (where y
