Yep. That has, in fact, been done and seems to show an elevated risk of GI illness in Olympians who swam in the Seine compared to previous Olympics. https://www.medpagetoday.com/special-reports/exclusives/1116...

And this training data somehow includes an explanation of how these individual lines (with variable names unique to my application) work together in my unique combination to produce a very specific result? I don't buy it. And... > p

It certainly wasn't. The codebase is thousands of lines of bespoke code that I just wrote.

If you specify your goals and constraints more fully, ChatGPT o3 does, in fact, identify this solution, but it correctly notes that it only works for modern browsers: https://chatgpt.com/share/6865a0e8-1244-8013-8b4b-a5

I'm not sure what "just guessed" means here. My experience with LLMs is that their "guesses" are far more reliable than a human's casual guess. And, as you say, they can provide cogent "explanations"

I'm not sure what you mean by "genuinely." But in the coding context LLMs answer novel questions all the time. My codebase uses components and follows patterns that an LLM will have seen before, but the actual codebase is uni

It’s really easy: go to Claude and ask it a novel question. It will generally reason its way to a perfectly good answer even if there is no direct example of it in the training data.

That's great to know! I'll have to give it a try.

These seem likely different concepts to me. Apostrophe is a nice looking markdown editor. Ensō is a minimalist writing tool (I hesitate to call it an 'editor') designed to facilitate a certain kind of writing by hiding text that h

I'm not here to debate which country works harder. Among other things, I'm not at all convinced that it's good for a society for people to be so devoted to their jobs. But it's worth pointing out that the U.S.'s fam

How else do you propose we understand? To understand any text requires interpretation. Interpretation just is the process by which one determines a text's meanings. You seem to have in mind particular kinds of interpretation which ar

For the purposes of GP's comment, I think the nationalities of the people actually running the company and doing the work are more relevant than who has invested.

I’m not a believer myself, but the response here seems obvious: by putting his law in writing, god invites (even demands) interpretation. What you are calling a “loophole” would just be a perhaps nonobvious but correct interpretation as app

I would not assume that it applies only to users located in the U.S., if that's what you mean, since this is designed to preserve evidence of alleged copyright infringement.

Is there a reason you’re translating the Hindi into latin rather than, for example, English? A live language might be more helpful!

Here's a somewhat different description of the situation, which I found useful: "[A] priest convicted of sexual abuse of minors was allowed to stay at an Augustinian priory near an elementary school and continue functions as a pri

Let's not waste effort debating what it means to be "surprised," which is beside the point. All I mean is that there are a lot of meritorious claims, because there genuinely is a lot of abuse. But as a fraction of the claims

As someone who only casually follows this space, I'm not sure what to think. This is clever, but can someone explain whether this makes any practical sense? Is there any chance that a recruiter's AI will actually consume this serv

I'm not sure I can offer much more than educated speculation, but here it is: I think that prison (especially in America) sucks, even when your legal rights aren't being violated. It's full of indignities and unpleasant condi

by pdabbadabba 1y ago
Well, then let me clarify: I know that there are a lot of abuses in the U.S. prison system. It's a national embarrassment, and I would be in no way surprised if these or virtually any other allegations a person might make turned out to

The "outcome" is simply that the judge simply directed the attorney to stop using the dragon watermark. Whats the problem? And, by the way, I'd recommend a bit less credulity about this kind of lawsuit. While there is no doub

Yes. That's compelled speech which is also disfavored under the First Amendment. (It would probably be fair to say "prohibited" -- but, as always, it's complicated.) Of course, as I'm sure many here know, the Fairne

Alas, I'm confident that, if they had reinstated it, it would have been struck down by the Supreme Court by now for violating the First Amendment.
