I disagree with that summary of the motive. It seems to me the author is concerned about terms of a free software license not being maintained in versions of the code redistributed, especially by LLM agents. The GPL requires derivative work

As the article's first comment states, and what was my first criticism after seeing Madd Max years ago: Who's refining the gas? Let's just call it what it is: The whole premise is stupid, and was the biggest detractor from &q

Thanks for reading the report and providing the tl;dr. Another thing that caught my eye as I scanned the article was "rice products" which is obviously not just rice, and levels exceeded for "infant rice cereal". So, it

I wouldn't argue with that, but I would say this is a subset of "consumers have no agency in relation to neither US federal politics nor the behavior of the oligarchy".

You do realize elon is worth almost $400B? I don't think tesla "funding" will have any material effect on his political activity. Tesla could completely go away, and he would still be the world's richest man. This is jus

Tesla is not elon, elon is not tesla 8-/ Just seems like someone needs to say this. I'm not a fan of elon or the cheato, but there are corps in the US that deserve people's ire much more than tesla. You could just start with

In spite of the article being 5 years old, I still found it interesting and relevant. The details of how the data was captured was helpful. The things I found most interesting fall into 3 parts: Part 1) It's heartening to see people en

You haven't read the book, and apparently think modern LLM tech invented the word "transformer". And based on that, you try to prevent other people from commenting on the post. So, when's your Emily Latella mea culpa? I

I generally agree with the concerns of this article, and wonder about the theory of the LLM having a innate inclination to generate bloated code. Even in this article though, I feel like there is a lot of anthropomorphization of LLMs. >

A part of my comment on another thread: To me, this represents one of the most serious issues with LLM tools: the opacity of the model itself. The code (if provided) can be audited for issues, but the model, even if examined, is an opaque s
