> If you're not being paid well, what's the motivation to post things you know don't make any sense to try and sell a brand? Because it works. Because it does in fact make sense despite your frustration with the concept.

This is quite sad to see someone react to a comment they disagree with by assuming that different opinion is paid for. I'd love it if you dug into my comment history and found even a shred of evidence that I'm being paid to talk p

Exactly. Here's my experience using LLMs to produce code: - Rust: nearly universally compiles and runs without fault. - Python,JS: very often will run for some time and then crash The reason I think is type safety and the richness of t

I suspect a more general and much more clever learning algorithm will emerge by then and will require less training data to get to a competent problem solving state faster even with dirty data. Something able to discriminate between novel i

Sorry but for $5 in credits you can have an agent port over all your bullshit to the next fad. I'll have one port over all my bullshit when the time comes too.

The sad part about this fact is that the tech is mated to a completely rotten ecosystem. If it were sold off I'd be excited to try it.

Exactly. What Meta accomplished could have been done by a team of less than 40 mediocre engineers. It’s really just not even worth analyzing the failure. I am in complete awe when I think about how bad the execution of this whole thing was.

Haha. I try to use they/them/their instead of he/her/him etc as a way of keeping stories a little more anonymized but I suppose it could be confusing. I am curious, do other people find this style of writing confusing? G

Possibly related anecdote: I have a family member that has struggled to hold jobs and keep relationships, and seems to have had a learning disability their entire life, and potentially had brain damage early in childhood (due to lack of oxy

Yes. They know that most humans typically have poor impulse control, and are easily pulled off task and will fall into an addicting and lucrative loop. Makes perfect sense to show random unrelated shit.

I think the poster you're responding to is correct. I've seen it many times myself. And just so you know, asking for a piece of data and not getting it is not going to be proof that you're right.

Statements like those are meant for you to just bounce off of them and fuck off. They don't care about the truth and they know you don't care enough to do anything about their lying. It's an entire business model.

I used to do the same thing. I'd scan for problems on the test amenable to computational approaches and either pull up one of my custom made programs or write one on the spot and let it churn in the background for a bit while I worked
