Star Trek went into this a bit. There was an episode in which the technology behind the android Data's artificial brain had been turned into a medical treatment used to prolong the life of a recurring character who got injured, and t

One good yardstick, if one has to anthropomorphize, is that LLMs know and believe what's popular. If you ask it to do something that popular developer opinion gets right, it will do fine. Ask it for things that many people get wrong or

Calling the history of the CCP a "ship on calm seas" really sounds like you need to pick up a book on Chinese history.

I understand the point you're making, but I think it's not a good one. The failure mode for getting a self-driving car right is grave. The failure mode for rendering game graphics imperfectly is to require a bit of suspension of d

> I do not get the point of this at all Dunno, this seems like an avenue definitely worth exploring. Plenty of game applications today already have a render path of input -> pass through AI model -> final image. That's what th

My workaround (well, to be honest, I've always done this: I love a good em dash, they're terrifically satisfying to use, but I'm too lazy to type them), is to use two single dashes--like so.

I tried to avoid it with the "vibe" bit, because I'm not actually offended by someone remixing a typeface, and I'm also professionally aware of some of the finer points of font licensing. What I am responding negativel

What they mean is that they made a font by tracing screenshots of the Microsoft deliverable and then tidied it up a bit. I'm aware copyright and fonts is a loaded topic, and I'm not advocating for a hardline stance, and making met

Maybe I have a particularly florid imagination, but it's hard to believe that tampons would be the most digusting thing found in sewers. I mean, they rank far below even just fecal matter on the icky scale. My anticipation for shock

Not sure about the pad, but the V3 ship has the catch points on the fins for example.

I'm reading and acknowledging all these comments, but I don't get it. Can one of you describe the fear?

You know we've lost when even the people who warn us of the coming AI apocalypse are too lazy to do so.

Yep, true. I've done things like share a ChatGPT account with a junior dev to steer them toward better prompts, actually, and that had some merit.

And also clearly not what the OP means, who was trying to make a point that tuning the prompt to an otherwise stateless LLM inference job is nothing at all like teaching a human being. Mechanically, computationally, morally or emotionally.

There's a lot of discussion about the ethics of AI disclosure going on here, but this maintainer is writing this from a place I recognize - community-driven, participatory development by people who enjoy programming, talking about it,

Steering via prompting isn't the same as fundamentally changing the LLM by teaching, as you can do with humans. I think OP understands this better than you.
