The irony may only just be unfolding - check out this paper from 2015: https://research.google/pubs/distilling-the-knowledge-in-a-n... # LLM generated summary of the implied irony …

Context matters a lot. I didn’t publish any papers, and didn’t even provide the context of the LLM mistakes I caught to later report on, so no, I was not guilty of reckless disrega…

I’ve disagreed with some of your other stances in this thread, but I want to acknowledge the validity of your take here. You’re right that a single hallucinated line is not evidenc…

Are you trying to make a point that we should remain open to the possibility that humans can express themselves eloquently?

Reading back through my comments, I recognize that omitting the quotes around “free services” would have made my comment here more palatable, and less provocative. That was poor fo…

Do you have any justification in mind for the “free service” being funded by tax payers? Why should it be free for the people who need it, and why should tax payers fund it?

Agreed. Imo, it is important to distinguish which parts of “everything” carry the weight of the concern. By doing that - we may be able to remove “LLM” from that equation entirely.…

To be fair, the English language is the real victim here. While “essential” cleanly maps to “can’t go without” - it doesn’t map to “bare minimum”. For instance, let’s assume you’re…

You’re not alone. I went from being a mediocre security engineer to a full time reviewer of LLM code reviews last week. I just read reports and report on incomplete code all day. S…

What’s the intent of pointing out the presumed provenance in writing, now that LLMs are ubiquitous? Is it like one of those “Morning” nods, where two people cross paths and acknowl…
