Because they are typically highly suggestible, unsure of themselves and excellent at retrofitting justifications onto events. Single? Must be a choice because she's an Independent Woman. I feel sorry for society. One generation grew up

Aider. Just add the files you need in the terminal, disable git autocommit and you're done. Tell it to do something then check the diff.

Lots of rest. By the time it starts to hurt its too late. Take lots of rest. By that I mean take a week or two off work. No devices at all, no similar movements. You can either nip it in the bud or you'll just end up having to do this

If you're an author with a book likely to have be hoovered up, I wonder what you'd get from the fb models if you asked "complete this in the style of [author] in [book]: [quite a long excerpt]" If you get a direct quote

Cue a load of buggy code with tests modified to pass instead of fixing why tests fail. Maybe they've just got an automatic prompt of "no dickhead fix the fucking code don't frig the tests"

Yeah totally. And it did take a stupid amount of effort to make it produce stuff that didn't sound like crap, actually had some substance to it, etc. But most people won't bother, for sure.

It's not even that. It's because they pumped AI as actual intelligence. So when it says to glue pepperoni to your pizza the companies (rightly) look like fools. In a similar vein they just don't want the negative press around

They probably also have a condition not to spunk it on crypto. The bank would be pretty reckless not to stipulate these things.

But you're blaming the AI for writing this 'slop'. That implies if you couldn't tell it was written by AI that same piece would be fine. I have actually had AI write pretty great content, in a tone far away from it'

I've found with sonnet that the longer its output the less it adheres to the prompt. Ask it to write something and not sound robotic and it's exceptional up to 1000 words. Then it starts becoming more and more robotic. At 3500 wor

The worst thing you can do with aider is let it autocommit to git. As long as you review each set of changes you can stop it going nuts. I have a codebase maybe 3-500k lines which is in good shape because of this. I also normally just add t

I've had it do similar nonsense. I just don't understand all the people who honestly believe AGI just requires more GPUs and data when these models are so inherently stupid.

This belief that governments couldn't simply eg tax crypto gains at 100% or otherwise ban exchanges is just a fairy tale. I mean, there's nothing physically stopping someone driving on the wrong side of the road but laws punish pe

It's a tax dodge IIUC. You buy crypto, it increases in value. If you sell it you may have to pay capital gains tax on any materialised gains. Swap it for another pretend token however and no tax liability since the gain isn't crys

Perhaps the difference is the Buddhists try to teach you how to experience the bliss of that discovery in this life instead of just crossing your fingers for jam tomorrow.

That's pretty close to the Buddhist view if you look at the immaterial jhanas. Obviously they don't couch it as God though, just the mind. It's basically progressive layers upon nothing which becomes something.

Of course. How else would Americans justify their superiority (and therefore valuations) if a load of foreigners for Christ's sake could just out innovate them? They had to be cheating.

Another after-the-fact "logical conclusion"/"inevitable" story. Great journalism.
