Maybe, like sarcasm, this kind of joke would be easier to appreciate if tagged somehow. I think everyone agrees the internet is drowning in AI slop. That makes the joke hard to appreciate on its own.

Does submitting this kind of PR count against their promotion or productivity? Is there any way it could? Love to hear from companies making progress on this front.

This might be true if cable companies did not make a profit. In the US, at least, I think the lack of competition (almost monopoly pricing in most areas) has led to exactly the opposite situation - plenty of profits for the cable providers.

To me the mechanics and the why are closely intertwined. If you feel like self-referentiality is a way to demonstrate a problem (this is the “why”), it is not a long step to the mechanics of encoding. The work is in creating the theorem &#x

From this argument, it sounds like your company is making a rational choice to go with what you’re seeing. Even if you don’t like it.

1. The computer is going to struggle to recognize elegance. I’m not sure it’s relevant at this point (but who knows). 2. The statement about proofs is just way wrong. It doesn’t sound like you are familiar enough with them. This isn’t exact

For perspective, I agree with the GP. The writing is not perfectly clear. We don’t have enough evidence to know if that was part of the problem.

Super interesting, thanks for the reference. I particularly found the note about “local collapse” helpful (near the end of section 3). The idea is that even though benchmarks contain a wide variety of different reasoning tasks, each individ

Stop the disingenuous comments please. 1. John Smith is the parent. Giving them power to control what the child visits allows them to do their parenting job. 2. What proposal makes Facebook responsible for anything? Surely none of these. Th

You’re asking for a different post. More like a science paper where they say the result up front. This blog post is like a story. It doesn’t start with the ending. I read your comment first, expecting to go to the article and see a bunch of

Absolutely not saying this is even the most common case but: people “without ADHD” but with a diagnosis can use the extra time effectively. It is most clear when there is some kind of problem solving involved. An extra 30 min to figure out

Nobody is holding up those other guys as shining paragons of virtue either. “Other people did it too” is not an excuse for immoral behavior. I think the parent and I basically agree.

Amazing story. I think you’re defending against a level of aggression that most of the world doesn’t believe exists yet. I suppose by the time we believe, it will be too late. There’s a lot of people who will be trying to run LLMs with hack
