These days, you never hear about reduce, reuse, recycle, and how its supposed to be in that priority order. When i was a kid thats what we were taught. Now its just recycle, recycle, recycle My conspiracy theory is corporate propaganda chan

You could have said that about motor cars. That the horse industry wasnt going to give up that easy. Its all about incentives Having said that, deep sustainability initiatives like this require some forward thinking, and i dont see the publ

So the proposal is that parents just input the age on their kid's device, and apps pull the age range to limit content. Thats actually reasonable. Does not personally identify anyone, can be opted out of as easily as those "i am o

I disagree with the author saying silksong breaks the definition of a game because what it offers is challenge instead of "fun" Thats like saying shawshank redemption isnt really a movie because its not fun like the original charl

This doesnt work if the market incentives themselves encourage these rent seeking actions. We have given capitalists more and more power pver the last few decades and instead making things better, its just allowed them to nueter the governm

It doesnt need to be a conspiracy. Incentives allign sometimes. Alot of people are invested in AI replacing jobs and it would be nice for them if the buzz was that it is actually the case

Interesting technique, that DID. But it assumes the non treatment factors would affect both the treatment group and control group equally, that the effect would scale linearly. If the treatment group was more exposed to the non-treatment fa

honestly "prompt engineering" is just the vessel for architecting the solution. its like saying "diagram construction" really took off as a skill. its architecting with a new medium

thats a great way to put it. the LLMs can't design things, thats way too above their capabilities. they can pretend to design things and even fool people, but they're jsut regurgitating other designs from their training data (and

interesting. that living plan document is something humans learn to make and update themselves. these problems are dynamical, requiring the solver to maintain state, and the plan is what records that. doing it for the LLM really highlights

i think thats a bit too defensive. the reasonable take has been that AI is definitely a game changer, like the internet was, but it was still in a bubble because people extrapolated the S-curve as though it was an exponential explosion. jus

> If you believe the bitter lesson, all the handwavy "engineering" is better done with more data Id say better model architechture than more data. A human can learn to do things more complex than an LLM with less data. I think

Youve got to be doing the most unoriginal work on the planet if this doesnt produce a bowl of disfunctional spaghetti

Like anything in culture and art, its opaque if you dont know the context, because its all a long conversation where everything is a repsonse to something before. This i feel is a response to how irony and cynicism (which were responses to

I dont like chesterton's fence. I think we should revalidate these structures. In a low risk situation of course, but still prod at them a little. Its very dangerous to lose intitutional memory because of a dogma of never questioning t

We're not just stochastic parrots though, we can parrot things stochastically when that has utility, but we can also be original. The first time that work was done, it was sone by a person, autonomously. Current LLMs couldnt have done

When there limited resources, prefering one type of person is prejudicing against the others.

If you dont mind answering, is there any implication of not getting preview access if you are negative or critical? Asking because other companies have had such dynamics with people who write about their products

Feels like a short term, low trust, reputation lag exploit. You mguht make more money from the confusion until some comes along offering a better product with a sensible billing plan and kills you because its easier for people to use. Thats

Reductionist. Your phrasing it like the onky options are full central planning and libertarianism. Theyre both wrong. You need the free market to do what it is capable of, and regulate it when its isnt. The free market was going to let mono

Does it remind you thay it cant stop at an intersection, or brake to avoid hitting objects? If it did then the person might be more responsible. But elon wouldnt have let the engineers put that in because it goes against his grift
