I just want to note how you expressed your own feeling about the subject "these things are not alive", but without pointing to anything concrete explaining the theory you have behind this And like I'm sure I'd agree depe

I wonder if I would do better as a human, maybe? Or would I happen to have one move in 1500+ that's not valid? I could see myself messing up something at some point if the board is complicated enough and trying an illegal move, perhaps

It's always interesting since my train of thought always goes down: - Ya they probably don't feel / think / have whatever living thing quality, they're just numbers on a machine going through calculations - Wait, bu

It's not that you're a d*, it's just that you lack any kind of nuance There's a whole spectrum between self-hosting open weight models and having a cloud provider swap models from under you Should you self host a model

> what semi-celebrity they like the most The language in question here is maintained by a BDFL, which means that one person has outsized influence on the language, and it's direction. In this context, I find it reasonable that if so

That's something for us and benchmarks to decide However it definitly isn't _just_ Kimi. The weight will be different after that 85% of extra training on top of the base model. If those different weights are better are worse doesn

Calling it an IDE is under-representing cursor They have in-house models, and the data to train even more powerful ones. The cursor team is a proper AI lab.

I can understand words, but having more diverse medias for communication lets a person express strictly more than before. Sometimes words are better, sometimes a visual demo is better. Is your solution to the problem you presented that you

I honestly much prefer this to the old way where the only mode of communication was speech or text. I now often understand a lot more holistically what the person coming with their product wants with just a demo + a conversation. Of course

I'm guessing the parent is wondering why this is noteworthy enough to be posted and discussed in this thread, and so if there's context they are missing

Even before AI, deterministic checks by compilers are almost always better than "review the code" "review the code" as a solution will eventually fail and cause a problem, even pre-AI.

Aren't you describing why they use mixture of experts? Where a sub-set of weights are activated depending on the query?

by frde_me 6mo ago
Out of curiosity, are there any sources to there being a significant amount of other steps before being fed into the weights Security guards / ... are the obvious ones, but do you mean they have branching early on to shortcut certain p

So it's intentional to make people pass down raw strings versus making the communication safe(er) by default?

You see, in my circles (me included), people are shifting _to_ codex since 5.3 codex came out. The only places where I hear people say claude is better is: - Frontend design - Random computer use tasks But people trust codex for large scale

It's hard to explain, but I've found LLMs to be significantly better in the "review" stage than the implementation stage. So the LLM will do something and not catch at all that it did it badly. But the same LLM asked to

My reaction in that case is that most other readers of the codebase would probably also assume this, and so it should be either made clearer that it's stateful, or it should be refactored to not be stateful

I feel like my calculator improves my math solutions. If you take away my calculator, I'll probably be worse at math than I was before. That doesn't mean I'm not better off with my calculator however.
