    There isn't a fast churn in the underlying pretrained model, nor RL. It's mostly orchestration around the model. Said another way you could just pretrain and RL for longer. Also I …

    It's not "my broken popup menus" since I'm not writing your app. This is some of the most basic portable software 101 I can't believe a real developer would complain about it. If y…

    We definitely are not on an exponential. Don't say we are because this isn't up for debate. AI progress is logarithmic the million dollar question is 2x or 10x for linear improveme…

    RSS peaked in 2005 [1] so unless google has been killing it for that long the waning popularity is genuine. Or at least forced by a broader industry push for locked down feeds. [1]…

    That it's not 100%? There is no material reason to have children, it's only a burden that opens you to constant normalized harassment from society. It's sorta like starting a busin…
