the llm is the trained part, the rest is the handwritten part. The sampler is handwritten, not learned.

if a compiler bug is found, it can be fixed. You can't fix an llm.

You need to be able to define exactly what it's abstracting. ex: std::shared_ptr is abstracting over raw pointers, and does refcounting. It is abstracting something but you can actually know exactly what that thing is. An LLM is an a

but you either exchange money and get the food you want, always. Or it's out of stock, so you don't get the food but you keep your money, guaranteed. It's not a good analogy. With an LLM you might ask for a pea, be parted wit

but even if it didn't it still provided a binary that is mathematically proven (assuming no compiler bugs, which if found are fully fixable, unlike LLMs) to correspond to the code you wrote.

when you do have the option of determinism, but intentionally eschew it in favour of a strictly inferior nondeterministic tool, then yes, it is kinda dumb.

I have never had it automate any tedium for me. Because if I didn't write it, I need to scrutinize all of it, but without the benefit of a prebuilt mental model. Reading through tons of similar looking code (because it's supposed

what i really hate is the "remind me later" buttons. I want to say a plain "no" but the app won't let me. It promises not to respect my decision right there in the popup itself!

GPUs in your average home PC has a longer lifespan. Datacenters run them at full load for very long periods of time. Some datacenters literally burn through hundreds of GPUs a day.

What will happen is that new buzzwords will be invented, and a new fad will take its place. And we will be stuck with the short end of the stick again. You can hope, but shit doesn't really get cheaper for us common folk, ever. :/

You can ignore precedence in the grammar, and then use a pratt parser or shunting yard or something to parse the precedence. But yes, it does need it, usually. And it's not a huge thing to implement. I usually implement it in the gramm

how do you disallow it from generating specific things? My point is that you can't. And again, how do you stop it generating certain tokens, but only in certain contexts?

You just said an oxymoron right there. If you're syntax checking every token, you're doing it AFTER the llm has spat out its output. You didn't actually do anything to force the llm to produce correct code. You just reject
