The Brax industries stuff you mentioned looked really sleek and fun until I noticed it's pretty much vaporvare as for today. I'm a great fan of the former submission you mentioned: a technology that seemed innovative but not in pr

Well, where VC money is involved, the aim of these ads placed in SF is not exactly to convince any potential users.

I feel you but this kind of discourse only polarizes the already divided society. Mothers face a lot of difficulties, and fathers also do. Arguing whose fate is worse seems really unproductive, what makes sense is looking forward and workin

Maybe, I'm not sure. Realistically, you meet with one, two, three potential candidates and you realize it's not what you need and want. You could have them, it's just the disadvantages are too high.

There is an enormous amount of money invested in trying to prove the opposite, for this reason not only they will never admit it, they will actively negate AI was used. It happened before: https://www.theregister.com/softwar

I believe the original statement is an oversimplification. What actually happens is that extreme situations, both positive and negative, can help you discover things about you that you didn't know before. Apart from that, the problem w

People usually respond to this, "But he apologized". Well, of course he did. The question is: did he really change his attitude? Because from his actions we can infer not only he didn't, it became worse.

Sure, but the omniprevalence of LLMs just just crystallized these into clearly recognizable patterns. Just like cliches, but not being limited to simple phrases.

It's a very heavy hammer. I used it in the way you describe and after double-checking noticed some crucial details were missed and certain facts were subtly misrepresented. But I agree with you, especially in areas where they have a lo

I upvoted your comment even though I disagree with you. Yes, LLMs are sloppy, and local models usually more so (but things change fast). But the local ones have one big advantage: they are private. So you can safely feed them the collection
