You are right. But newspapers make it difficult to distinguish them. Opinion pieces are liberally distributed amid news items. LA Times has a Columns section on the right hand side. But, this particular piece is not listed there. It is list

Thank you so much for posting. I finally understand Jacobian matrix. The key is to know this applies to a function that returns multiple values. The wikipedia article was difficult to understand, until now! Note: Technically, a function can

AIX was and probably still is an extremely capable OS. IBM has contributed a lot to the Linux kernel since then. Linux may be good enough now and probably a better option for many reasons for most orgs.

The point of this is not so much to compare humans with AI. But to compare AI with other traditional software development approaches to solve this domain (IQ test, in this case). I believe, and I could be wrong, it will be nearly impossible

You are testing this model for knowledge. That's not the primary use of a model like this. They are meant for instilling domain specific skills and knowledge through fine-tuning. The blog post goes into that a lot. But to quote one sen

What the author is doing here is pre-training. This is something usually model makers like Google and Meta need to do. Most business are much better off doing fine-tuning or to a lesser extent continued pre-training. The author is doing thi

Over-investment in a new technology seems to be a common thing. It happened with the Internet and railroad. A bubble forms which pops. But the process leaves behind valuable infrastructure.

I gave it a properly developed story. Gemini altered it somewhat to fit it in 10 pages. It was more than acceptable. But the illustrations, asked for in the style of oil paining, could have been better. We will get there.

For production use of open weight models I'd use something like Amazon Bedrock, Google Vertex AI (which uses vLLM), or on-prem vLLM/SGLang. But for a quick assessment of a model as a developer, Ollama Turbo looks appealing. I find

For what LangChain does, most of the time I see no need for any framework. I would rather directly work with a vendor's official package. LangGraph is different. It is a legitimate piece of workflow software and not a wrapper framework
