Firstly, I can't refute a point that's little more than an opinion - my doubt is that a modern frontier model is significantly hallucinating within a relatively short conversation …

This feels like an impossible assessment - yes, a model probably can't give you the education that a advanced/expert book on a topic will, but implying that having a verifiable goa…

This would be a valid point maybe 3 years ago, but most chatbots will now query and verify direct sources, especially in research mode. This is very simple to validate and verify. …

This post made me write manual code, there's something about hearing the description of this that makes me worry the bubble is going to come home to roost. The obvious danger of sp…

I really love this - fantastic that it's open source too as would love to contribute. Is there an opportunity to add fresh new sites on this?

That's a bit of a false comparison - does this font significantly improve your quality of life comparably to a cheaper/open source font? Is this font really that much better than J…

I think whenever a blog post begins to sound like a marketing campaign from versace - it's always a great sign that it may be LLM generated. This isn't just a comment. It's a an ex…

Nope, plenty of complex tasks. It's just not that much better, it's equivalent to sonnet with a good harness.

I think the fable it's referring to is the "Emperor has No Clothes" - if this is even slightly similar to the Mythos hyped up to be too intelligent to release, I'm quite disappoint…

Doesn't work too well on desktop either! This is decent but it's also an early hackathon set-up - this is something that you can set up on a sonnet model fairly easily (without the…

Not to get too reductive - but LLMs are essentially performing massive number-crunching at a textual representation level. If you've ever played around with early NLP models, they …

I mean we've been using technology to solve long-standing problems in mathematics that no human had been able to do for years. Is Deep Blue sentient because it can beat any human a…

I'm sorry - but you're not going to ban AI no more than you can ban the transistor. You could limit & limit the potential of who uses it - but historically that seems to benefit th…

I guess that's partially my original point summarised; I'd like to see this criticism levied at the apps advertising it - rather than using something that doesn't
