Much of the stupidity stems from the impulse to coddle Trump’s ego. Both from Trump himself and anyone who interacts with him. It becomes self-interest only because this man with a…

This only works if the tasks are actually specific and don’t benefit from broad competency. IMO, this doesn’t match most things that people use LLMs for.

Fair enough.

Thanks for an alternative source! I’ll check it out.

Serious people own their words and admit their mistakes.

He has admitted to being grotesquely wrong about LLMs being useful?

I don’t trust someone who is dumb enough to think LLMs aren’t useful at all. Of course, he may just be deceiving himself or his audience about this belief. I don’t think he is actu…

No problem! Thanks for the apology :)

He was a complete asshole, but he wasn't an unhinged sociopath like Sam.

It’s comical and honestly incredibly embarrassing… But it seems we have somehow optimized away shame. It wasn’t good for profits, I guess.

I use these strange machines all the time. They have gotten notably smarter. That’s my personal experience. They still do things that I find incredibly annoying and “dumb”. And I s…

They are both products with multiple sellers competing on price. If one seller raises their price, people can switch to the other seller. You can't only look at how much "value" th…

If you do it mindlessly, I'm sure you are right. But one could try to understand and integrate each piece of code as they "copy" it over. May be hard to sustain though.

#2 looks a little AI to me. I think #3 was maybe the best entry.

For someone like Ed, it feels like way too much effort to wade through the muck. I personally can't stand anything that whiffs of "outrage content" . Doubly so if they are stupendo…

Look up how pure mathematics connects back to reality in countless unexpected and useful ways, time and time again.

It's not bad I think. We must be open-minded and humble, like a child, and learn how the system actually works in order to be effective. Often times our first instincts will not wo…

What about just using the Netflix desktop website? Or does that limit the resolution?

Someone whose agent is spamming slop PRs is not a "user". They are an attacker to defend against. The title of "user" requires reasonable consent from the provider of the thing bei…

Sure, but it didn't. And you get way better results if you do that, so do that.

Unless someone has discovered some magic sauce for getting AI to write well, I have immense sympathy for anyone trying to wade through these papers. I may generate slop from time t…

> I do not trust any state, government or ruler with the power to compel speech or action. This feels too broad. What modern government doesn't compel action?

The saying that stuck with me was "defenders have to be right 100% of the time, while attackers only have to be right once". You are suggesting this isn't correct? > a defender get…

I've increasingly felt like Fable and I speak different dialects of English...

It's still incredibly immature and selfish, intentional or not. I admire your empathy, though.
