technically most translation tools these days have an LLM inside. Just not the chat/completion LLM. I think that Google initially came up with transformer architecture to use it for translation, so...

I think that people subconsciously perceive grammatically correct and stylistically appropriate writing as more authoritative. And author is perceived as smarter and/or better educated person. At least that was the case before LLMs bec

If I was operating a bot farm, at this point I would probably add some bots that go around and accuse legit human users (or just random users) of being bots. Created confusion and frustration will make it much harder to separate signal from

It's interesting that first they use words like "association", but then somehow switch to "more harmful" and "more detrimental". As far a I can understand the study design, it can establish a correlation b

> security audits If you are unable to run the multimillion training, then any kind of security audit of the training code is absolutely meaningless, because you have no way to verify that the weights were actually produced by this code.

It should be trivial to write an reader program for hn that does that. These days you might even vibecode it in one prompt, although coding it manually is not super hard either.

Curiously enough, after telling it "your code is broken, can you find the mistake?" it was able to correct the code: def replace_em_dash(text: str) -> str: """ +-------------------+

This is really funny and I do feel ashamed for my laziness. I didn't expect ChatGPT to make such trivial mistake, although, I have no idea which model do they use on the free plan these days. The correct code is, of course: text.

Ask you IRL friends or colleagues from your job "hey, do you happen to have an HN account?" If the discussion is related to a public project, like in the examples in this comment: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?

This problem can be solved by an invite/vouch for system. New account can be invited or vouched for by an old account with good karma. If an account that you vouched for starts spamming and/or slopposting, you lose your vouching f

I'm sorry, but I find this mentality from app developers extremely annoying. I personally prefer light themes everywhere, both in IDEs and in the terminal. I thought that just choosing my own color scheme for 0-15 would give me the col
