Not to refute your point but I’ve met overly confident people with “AI skills” who are “extremely productive” with it, while producing garbage without knowing, or not being able to tell the difference.

Maybe it’s not even a copy paste. Just something running in a loop, interacting with LLMs and automatically calling APIs.

The capital [in these companies] might not be as decoupled as portrayed but rather funneled from the labor which is not in their employment. This is more glaring in ad tech. For the manufacturers in the list, you have to consider the cheap

> couple this with temperature 0 Not quite the case. Temperature 0 is not the same as random seed. Also there are downsides to lowering temperature (always choosing the most probable next token).

Apart from the obvious, another aspect of renewables that I hope will make the world a better place is the potential to be fucking free from oil and gas. Imagine the geopolitical impact of that. But, here’s a lesson from WW2. Unless we can

Is being desperate to buy drugs a new thing? Because it sounds like stealing these guardrails is new thing.

I do largely agree with you, however > Mind you, the role of reserve currency today is largely hoisted by the rest of the world onto the USA It’s the opposite [1]. Trump openly threatens anyone who tries to replace dollar. It even goes b

I’m afraid it’s more complicated than that. How would you get rid of this asymmetric relationship and still keep USD as global reserve currency?

> guys at Anthropic, of all people, would anthropomorphize LLMs to this extent They don’t. This is marketing. Look at the discourse here! It’s working apparently.

It’s clever PR and marketing and I bet they have their top minds on it, and judging by the comments here, it’s working!

Oh well… you should see what some people comment under the posts from the likes of Yann LeCun. It’s very entertaining.

On a tangent, I find the analogies interesting as well. However, while Karpathy is an expert in Computer Science, NLP and machine vision, his understanding of how human psychology and brain work is as good as you an I (non-experts). So I ta

Well, in the beginning, the math doesn’t work out in favor of building the software (or the thing you want to sell) either.

I wish that was the case. I see most people, who believe to be experts, already made up their minds and being pretty sure about it. I personally believe that not being sure about something, esp. on a topic as complicated and as this one, re
