You can just click the little "reader" button in firefox to bypass most of those paywalls. The only one I've found it doesn't work for is WSJ. Some sites you have to catch it mid refresh.

A whole bunch of farmers in predominantly red states, many of them trump voters, are totally fucked this year because their crops were going to USAID. It's not about "efficiency" or "the economy", it's about wr

It seems like a very similar issue arises with the "natural language query" problem for database systems. My best guess at a solution in that domain is to restrict the interface. Allow the LLM to generate whatever SQL it wants, bu

As the youths say, "fuck around and find out". I wish them the best of luck, but I'm not betting it'll work.

But don't forget the Actor Model and Durable Execution! That'll surely keep the LLM on track.

This is such embarrassing marketing from an organization (OpenAI) which presents itself to the world as a "research" entity.. They could have at least photoshopped the screenshot to make it look like it emitted correct information

Oh I agree LLMs are interesting, and many people are excited about them, but I don't think the utility has been demonstrated. I'll grant you plenty of people state they've been made more productive, but I really prefer obje

You know, I hope you're right. I'm tired, and I'd love to retire. If your techno-rapture is indeed imminent I'll soon be able to do that. Unfortunately, I can't join you in this cultish belief system. I have had the

I will feel fucking great about that, because my stock portfolio will moon on their backs sufficiently that I can retire. But I'm not hopeful.

Whoa there, hold yer horses ;) Let's wait and see until we have something like an answer to "will it be intelligent?" Then we might be ready to start trying to answer "will it be useful?" I agree completely though

Since I don't have an expendable army, I must be either an idiot or a troglodyte. Where my understanding falters is finding a domain where accuracy and truth aren't relevant. In your example you said nothing about a "phased r

Can you get enough revenue from ads to pay the cost of serving LLM queries? Has anyone demonstrated this is a viable business yet? A related question: has anyone figured out how to monetize LLM input? When a user issues a Google search quer

These are not the sort of uses we need to make this thing valuable. To be worthwhile it needs to add value to existing products . Can it do that meaningfully well? If not it's nothing more than a curiosity.

Are people actually satisfied by that? I personally find "chatting" with an LLM grating and dissatisfying because it often makes very obvious and incongruous errors, and it can't reason. It has no logical abilities at all, re

Yeah that's the big problem. The Internet (e-commerce, specifically) is an obviously good idea. Technologies which facilitate it are profitable because they participate in an ecosystem which is self sustaining. Brick and mortar busines
