In most humans, yes, because we are terrible at memorizing millions of codebases. For LLMs, we need to apply our understanding of them before making statements like that. An LLM can "memorize", and has "memorized"/b

With that approach, the benchmark falls apart. Of course it can write a chess engine, because it learned on lots of stolen source code of chess engines. This has nothing to do with the LLM's ability to reason. Writing a well understood

The question is to what end? This is a benchmark task, because playing chess, or solving other well-understood problems is more of a party trick than it is useful. If you let the LLM write a chess program, which it can ONLY do because there

My read is that the improvements in quality are due to excessive use of "thinking" tokens (so, higher quantity and brute force), so I agree with that.

If you want creators to get paid, pay them (channel memberships, patreon, click on their sponsor links and buy something). No need to subject yourself to ads. Ads don't just steal your time either, they invade your head. You are influe

Same here, but I want to add that you can easily do this for all apps BUT one or two. For example, I have my messaging and personal emails allowed to send me notifications, because almost all messages I get there are important and usually u

I can really recommend an automatic watch. Go to a jewelry store, try some on in the below 300 euro category (like, 10 euro to 300 euro range), and get one. Suddenly you can leave your phone somewhere, and not panic-check the time on it and

Human memory does not keep more information than an always-on live transcript of all words spoken around you.

Of course it can be useful! Even the situation from the stream is useful! This doesn't make it a good feature that should be so easy, so prominently advertised, and impossible for others to tell that it's on.

Slightly besides the point, but I love seeing people in massive modern SUVs, clearly completely overwhelmed by them, barely able to tell where it starts and ends, probably distracted by the screen. Its especially funny in parking here lots

I'm a big fan of DeepSeek. Also, ask it what model it is :) In Pi (pi.dev), it tells me it's definitely Claude by Anthropic, via the API via curl it tells me it's "probably ChatGPT", its very funny.

Who should get credit? Sam Altman, and we should give him a couple hundred billion more as well. Snark aside, the researchers working on this, who built the foundation, should get credit, and they are.

A couple hundred billion dollars of investment better solve cancer, hunger, and climate change, otherwise they are horribly misplaced :)

How would it generalize? Let's say I use C, in which `class` is not a keyword, how would a model generalize such that it recognizes this?

I don't care if the text is AI generated. I care that it's written well, and that it's accurate. If an LLM helps you do that, then use it.

This thread seems to confuse source-available and open source

If you think an LLM can just implement e.g. an alternative to the Linux kernel from scratch (or any other GPL licensed software), you might be falling for the marketing. Have you seen LLMs build large, stable, pieces of software, that work

Open source is about freedom, not just about being able to read the source code.

I struggle very much to understand the "why". There's a git server, it's installed when you install git, and it really does work very well. > every instance is a disposable cache that revalidates with one conditional

There are two nuances here; 1. The author might be exaggerating or lying in regards to the capabilities, ease of use, and result 2. if Claude can do it without hardware access, I struggle to see how it could be anything other than unsigned

But GitHub were one of the first and strongest to advocate for using AI, so excessively in fact that it turned people away from the platform. At every turn on the website it suggested to use Copilot, or edit it right now, and commit right n

As someone who maintained a product that was, until recently, on Azure DevOps, stay away. Like, really really far away. There's nothing positive I can say about it.
