They don't learn to apologise to the plants, they just learn to be grateful for what they can take for "free". That probably doesn't fit into your tiny narrative of "green activists" being all shamans who belie

Is anyone aware of techniques to prune a model from useless knowledge to leave more space for the reasoning capabilities? It really shouldn't matter that it can give the exact birthdate of Steve Wozniac, as long as it can properly make

It's also quite convenient compared to all the actions required to board an airplane... Just hop on and off straight from the city center. If only governments stopped advantaging flying at the expense of trains.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I don't understand the harsh comments you received here. Denial is the way others seem to be using to cope with a tech that threatens their precious skills.

Looks like there's an implementation of it for npm: https://github.com/crev-dev/crev I've been willing to try it for a while for Rust projects but never committed to spending the time. Any feedback?
