I broadly agree. Plain text formats remain consistently accessible and flexible. That said, arguably the dominant AI artifacts are binary images, video, audio. The "preview panes f…

I'd argue the spirit of entrepreneurialism and salesmanship in the story is more American! I've just been through this process. Very painful. SF based company, US founder. Same fou…

Did you read it? The argument boils down to: this is exactly the same as other times. And provides multiple examples.

"Teach yourself to not judge people for being human." "Be a more charitable, generous, understanding person." Anyone making such blatantly judgemental and egotistical comments to a…

This makes the remarkable claim that the ontology document is correct no matter what the actual data says! And I suspect legal would have something to say about the ontology defini…

That's your reaction to a page about photography that has photos of a model, and the photos DON'T feature her breasts? I mean sure, she has them. Many women do!

what's with the weird obsession all over the thread that it is the JUDGE who is the only person at fault here?

That’s a profoundly incorrect misunderstanding of the Citizens United decision, which was to remove restrictions on political spending by corporations. In other words, by your dist…

Maybe its obvious but I can't tell it this is an image editor, a React builder, an HTML/CSS designer, ...? What does it make?

Your tone is disagreement, but it's not clear why? There is an individual who you trust to do good work, and who works well with you. They're not anonymous. Addressing the topic of…

This is one of those articles that is too obsessed with amusing itself with its own pretentiousness to communicate anything interesting - which is ironic given the author seems thi…

You’re comparing being the founder and CEO, to being an employee hired to run a fraction of an organisation?

"They do not know the meaning of what they generate but the output is important to us." Isn't that a good definition of what bullshit is?

You seem to be talking about a production-grade model rather than building an LLM as an exercise? Or if not, why do you disagree with the article's example of building a small LLM …

How is knowing the commutative properties of operations more significant than being able to do basic arithmetic? I'd imagine millions if not billions of people have found basic mat…

I pay for a lot of software eg I used Screen Studio a couple of times, liked it, dropped a couple hundred bucks for it. Good work from a solo dev. Datastar have basic functionality…

Copy-to-clipboard is a support heavy feature? Do you really think Datastar is of such ridiculously bad quality that even simple features require a lot of support to get working?

A todo list is a unique thing, it’s about remembering to do all the things you said you’d do. There’s no implied consistency from one todo list to another. A checklist is used repe…

Pointing out that LLMs are deterministic as long as you lock down everything, is like saying an extra bouncy ball doesn’t bounce if you leave it on flat surface, reduce the tempera…

From my perspective, your argument is: - AI gives me huge, mediocre prints of my own shitty pictures to fill up my house with - AI means I don’t have to talk to other people - AI m…

“the bubble won't pop, but deflate into a wrinkled 10 day old helium balloon” Love it :)

I think the GP is suggesting a simple explanation of why it went badly, since that is the subject of the thread, rather than an explanation of why Musk bought Twitter. No need for …

I recognise the poster as someone actively working in the field. That’s exactly why it’s interesting that Simon is saying he hasn’t seen the benefits of fine tuning and would like …

That’s a good example for showing how “UI” and “UX” are essentially the same thing. At least in a practical context. We can call an excellent story teller a “writer”. A good story …

“Pretending anything else is AGI is nonsense” Is it? I wasn’t aware of “playing a physical instrument on stage with millisecond response times” as a criterion. I’m also confused by…
