Such a shakeup is long overdue. Also imagine the westerly views of the west coast sunset and foggy mornings from the skyscraper, or the northerly view of the golden gate and bay, or the easterly view of the city spread out before you. Wow.

Sounds like you are not very familiar with SF. It's an easy drive south on the 101 to get to the rest of silicon valley, without the horrible traffic/congestion of downtown SF. Also, unlike many neighborhoods in SF, there is super

It seems to be an accidental advantage of the messy hodgepodge that is English. There are semantic clues everywhere in word order patterns.

It seems that the output feels reasoned because of the reasoning implicit in language patterns. Which is enough to write code and essays, apparently.

I thought that at first. I think with LLMs we will start to see code with better and more descriptive comments, since there is significant advantage to be found when the code has as much information and context as possible. Human programmer

It's truly unbelievable that Microsoft has allowed low quality garbage news to proliferate the Windows UI, including generating notifications. It's really quite embarrassing to see the low quality content and to imagine that somew

I see your point that the quality of discourse is very low and that most ideological labels are worn haphazardly without the wearer really understanding what philosophy he/she is claiming to support. Many sloppy "pro business"

When you say that the output of LLM is "correct", what do you mean? The output that seems impressive is merely "plausibly written by an intelligent entity" but there is nothing about it that could be characterized as bei

Think of it this way: They create plausible patterns of language that seem (to humans) similar to human-generated language. That is what they are "good at". Imagine an "AI" that "knows" about rhyme and meter an

The knowledge that this would happen is why it happened in the first place. SVB execs won't take a pay cut.

SVB does a lot of venture debt. When venture debt is not repaid, SVB ends up owning the company, and can recover its exposure only if there is a buyer for the company or assets. In early stage land where valuations are the result of a fair

Sometimes technical debt is framed as an accident or a mistake, as if someone spent money on a credit card irresponsibly. And certainly sometimes that is the case. But any kind of debt can enable leverage when it is done intentionally and
