    Maybe this is where all the books an LLM consumed during training goes.

    When you put it like that, it really does, lol.

    I think one hypothesis along these lines is that, if allowed, due to the limitations of human language you described, LLMs will gravitate towards "inventing" their own language (wh…

    Agreed. Youtube recommendations are genuinely great for me. Most of the time I'll be recommended so many more good videos than I have time for, that my "watch later" playlist only …

    correct, and I think games which needed action keys in addition to arrow keys (but no mouse) preferred arrow keys on the right so the left hand could handle the other moves and stu…

    I also discovered the mirrored writing thing lol and it made me wonder what ambidexterity is since if ambidextrous people could presumably write non-mirrored with the other hand, a…

    In addition, even knowing it's not real, I feel like I can't appreciate it as much as I did (or would've) a well-made clip that I knew was CGI.

    An interesting anecdote that comes to mind is playing old computer games with arrow keys, which used my right hand. I got pretty proficient with this. Over the years, I (and I imag…

    Good comment, and I agree lol I read it twice (admittedly quickly) but couldn't grasp the point even though I felt like it was there.

    Good point. So I guess while "realism" (or believability) is really good now, prompt adherence has much room for improvement. (though put it another way, realism has always been "s…

    That's a good example, actually. If you asked me what I expected, since this one has "thinking", it'd be that it would've thought to do something like generate the image without Wa…

    I really like all the compress-to-X links at the bottom and the convert from X to Y tools. Especially the Discord one with presets for different target file sizes based on Discord'…

    I'm honestly unsure what could be improved at this point. Consistency? So it fails less often? Based on the released images, (especially the one "screenshot" of the Mac desktop) I …

    When you said Agent and AI, I thought there would be some way for us to resize or move elements, and have the agent figure out the right properties to change (whether it's margin, …

    The video was really good, and the UI looks fun too. If I understand correctly, is this not as useful for frameworkless html/css/js development? Since when you make edits using bro…

    Yea and I'm doubtful we'll see a service willing to do their own post-processing per-query while also being at the whim of Youtube's API (official or not). Ultimately, I would like…

    Yea, webapps (even PWAs) still can't compete with native apps when it comes to responsiveness, but I still don't know why. I've yet to see even a demo PWA that passes the "native t…

    I'd like to second that I wish a lot of those existed. For 1), 60fps is another good one. It seems Youtube also removed "sort by upload date" if I'm not mistaken. The closest we ca…

    I was hoping to finally see an advanced time filter so I could do something like "over 2 minutes" but it seems you've only got the same ones Youtube has ( 20). If it's an opaquenes…
