This is the thing that a lot of people who dabble with LLMs don’t seem to understand. And obviously it makes great clickbait to rail against chatgpt.

I had first hand experience of this recently. A tenant in a property I rent out was sent a near-incomprehensible email written in “building manager” gobbledegook by the agency who manage the property. “I would be most grateful if you can ei

The premise of this article is far more depressing than the “depressing” conclusion that the author seems to propose, which is that journalists are going to be out of jobs. “Journalist who doesn’t understand technology tells chatgpt ‘write

Yes I understand that. But the “get expoship” button on the homepage should take me to somewhere I can purchase. And if it’s sending me a magic link then the magic link should take me to somewhere I can purchase. Trying it again now it’s st

It’s a weird technicality of copyright law. When a human teacher plays a song that is a private performance of a composition. When a computer plays a song copyright law treats this as a mechanical copy of the composition and public performa

Ten hours and counting! That's made a lovely mess of my day. Fell back to the Mistral API for some things, but it's (a) much slower, (b) not as good. Reminder to self: have fail-over in place already, rather than having to whip it
