Assuming I was okay with the political exploits of Elon and his companies: Grok was supposed to be the unbiased model, that is: regurgitate everything it has read. Obviously all data has bias, even all of the data at once, but the sales pit

That's a very empty statement: you're haven't mentioned and critiqued any of the points he made against LLMs at all.

Additional constraint here: it's not just browser version. Processes have to refer to the same disk location for sharing to work. Given that each ships the full set of dependencies disk location will never match (except for their own

A script can't pull facts out of a PDF, but you certainly don't need 2T param frontier model to do that either.

I got Claude to write a forejo instance in TF (oidc + CI runners + daily backups + the works) in half a day.

That's missing a some of the LLM era? Maybe the author is working on a logarithmic view?

I think my age group (~40) is the tail end of widespread dogmatic trust in Microsoft. Once we retire I think they are going to be in serious trouble.

At least so far as Microsoft goes, it is abundantly clear that they do not use LLMs like you claim to. The gp comment is an extremely fair assumption. I'd also wager that people like you are extreme anomalies in general. We are seeing

Because the IT department makes them. Windows (and Mac) have an abundance of turn-key MDM solutions. I did the research to avoid having to use Windows at a previous employer, and there weren't many options (and specifically _any_ that

I think you'd need to insert "critique these ideas." That's where the intellectual honesty comes in - I suspect that _all_ current LLMs would continue on with and truly stupid ideas as though they were gospel, their prof

Maybe modulating temperature can help here: have the LLM come up with ideas at high temperature, and then critique them at low. This is also tied to halucinations: it is something that humans do (for writing fiction, and for "jumps&quo

Back in the day I was writing a liero clone, and came up with a neat scheme for pixel-perfect collisions (probably serendipitously, no claims it's unique). A 64bit integer can be seen as an 8x8 mask. You can pixel shift it up and down

China was behind the frontier before they suddenly weren't (K3). Just using American models would never have achieved that (not that they could have anyway, but the point still stands).

And FWIW, KDE probably make the most effort with their compositor. They have historically been well ahead of the curve for things that might affect this (e.g. VRR).

In Linux you generally have two types of desktops: DEs, which are full featured (KDE, GNOME, Cosmic, Cinnamon, etc.), and window managers. Window managers do only what they say on the tin, if you used one with genuinely no config (they us

One option would be to have an input replay alongside captured outputs (audio visual), at some fixed framerate. Capturing intermediates (scene graph etc.) would probably also be valuable, as that could help nail down why something is failin

Game engines are typically in two languages, one for the engine itself and one for scripting. That even goes for Unity: in Unity, C# is a significantly more powerful than average scripting language (for lack of a better term), but the engin

The Claude harness effectively summarizes the discovery into a plan document, clears, and starts with just that summary - so you'd be clearing context regardless.

Stealing electricity is already illegal. Driving a truck into your home could be a genuine accident, but it's more likely that alcohol was involved first (which is illegal with driving).

I loved playing with fireworks as a kid, and surprisingly have all appendages and senses intact, I even considered pyro as a job - so I definitely get the appeal. I just think it's time that we left it to the professionals. Unless you
