> But all inconsistent understanding is incorrect. Why do you believe that? Even if we assume that reality itself is self-consistent (what does that even mean?), why would that imp…

Which pictures are you missing? I see three stills from the Bladerunner intro sequence, and two embedded videos of it.

What makes it so token hungry? Is she directly using the LLM for genome analysis rather then having it write the data analysis algos?

In your experience, would you say that your communication has become more precise? Reflecting on it now, I believe that metaphors and idioms can help a lot for communicating intuit…

That's a very good question that I also don't have an answer to (yet). But I believe part of the reason for that is that were currently still in the middle of this shift, so there'…

They are most likely not based in the US, but converting to USD to make comparison easier.

Seems like for such requests it's necessary to get some proof of work: require a meeting where for every artifact they sent you to review, they briefly explain the gist and point o…

Agreed. It seems a core issue underlying these prompt injection attacks is a failure to properly scope the agent's permissions. In this case, depending on what exactly the agent is…

I agree with the basic premise: that when using LLMs, they will tend towards some mean when resolving ambiguity. There's a very interesting opportunity here for a deeper investigat…

I'm sure there's plenty of writing in the above style to be found on the Internet, and hence having been trained on by the LLM. I'm also not a fan of this style, and in particular …

Oh, that's a very interesting hypothesis! Not sure about taking it down to the level of consciousness, but makes sense regarding the sense of self, the conceptual experiencer, the …

I don't think that's weird at all. Even if we know it's a machine we're interacting with, since the instructions we give are so similar in form to how we interact with people, I'd …

I agree. Don't have a citation now, but I remember reading that this was a copyright problem. They wanted to name it "Linux Subsystem for Windows", but apparently the Linux foundat…

The featured article.

Maybe you are saying the same thing, but couldn't that be explained better by those people being afraid to be made obsolete? Or at least, afraid if having to retrain?

His last name sounds very close to the German word for boredom (Langeweile), that's kind of funny...

To see it as "kek" you'd have to be Alliance.

Those ads are not for workers, they're for the employers.

Not sure about the underlying reason, but I use Windows for work and the only program I've encountered in the past two years with this behavior is the Eclipse IDE. Everything else …
