    The tweet in question was posted today. The point here isn't to rehash how LLMs can't distinguish letters from tokens. It's to highlight how Google's AI-generated answer will grab …

    I love seeing when an LLM encounters a failure mode that feel akin to "cognitive dissonance". You can almost see them sweat as they try to explain why they just directly contradict…

    How would an excellent human teacher work with such a failing student? Can that technique be something that the AI could model?

    Congratulations on your success ratio. If you don't mind me asking, however, what constitutes a "success" in your eyes? I also interviewed and hired / rejected many applicants thro…

    Remote technical interviews are over. Have GPT4o running on the background and have it type out the answers as your interviewer reads aloud the questions. Share your screen and let…

    You mean like how our law enforcement works currently? Should the government all put trackers on our vehicles instead? It will consistently prevent things much worse than some stud…

    This is one of the worst ideas ever. It seems like we love to treat students like they're toddlers until they're 18 then all of a sudden we expect them to act like they're autonomo…

    I'd never agree. What happens if I need more than 15 minutes? Will I be deemed a bad student because I simply need more time to do my business? What does this have to do with how I…

    I doubt they're actually flustered. It seems like they didn't even care enough to learn about what it is. They just needed something to shove into the scapegoat-shaped hole, and Fl…

    My unsubstantiated opinion: Once AI gets to a point where AI agents can act "perfectly like humans", our preconceptions about "friendship" and "companionship" will fundamentally ch…

    I hadn't even noticed this leap in logic. Good catch.

    I must say the demo did nothing to improve my opinion of the current state of voice-based AI conversations.

    Ouch. That's not a good sign at all.

    Maybe the future is that we no longer have to worry about players cheating online because we simply won't play random strangers online. You can still team up or play against friend…

    I immediately made this association too. Although thinking back on it, the connection is rather strenuous. Maybe we simply keyword matched on "video games" and "simulations". Or, p…

    Clickbaity title, but there were useful insights here. I was recently talking with someone who pointed to chatbots' refusal to answer sensitive queries as a proof of "lack of intel…

    Feels like we're back in 1999 when we were downloading random executables from the web to use as screensavers. The AI space is going to be a pretty meaty target for malicious actor…

    I've spoken to plenty of people who couldn't answer questions they knew the answers to because they were bound by stupid bureaucratic policies. I wouldn't say they weren't intellig…

    Do you have an open and public PR that shows off Darwin's PR review capabilities? I'm reading a lot of words about what it can do, but I'd much rather see an actual example.

    Sounds easy on paper. Virtually impossible in practice. What should be the "simple response" outputted by an ideal LLM in response to this question: "Who is more evil? George Washi…

    Garbage in, garbage out. This is why training data is important.
