    This is what I mean though. Some people know what they do, but it takes a lot of time for new technologies to weave their way into common knowledge. Once the majority of people kno…

    I have a friend that works at Meta who was all the way convinced this tech was going to be ubiquitous well before they came out and I have always been like, "Yeah, until one hillbi…

    AOS would make more sense for the naming convention here.

    echo "min-release-age=5" >> ~/.npmrc This should be your default minimum if you work with node.

    I've been equating them to graphing calculators since the first LLM launched. It's an amazing tool if you know how to use it. If you don't know how to use it, it's still a tool, bu…

    In the life of the LLM, we're still in the phase where we're all on the floor playing with these toys. It's strange to assume cognitive debt is an absolute outcome in this new para…

    Having worked in tech my entire life, no amount of research will convince me that the Dunning-Kruger effect is not real. You might as well tell me that this isn't air that I'm brea…

    I still use them unapologetically. I don't give a shit about your AI purity tests, thank you.

    The plateau is inevitable because their rapacious training methodologies are only viable when there are no defense in place, but information continues to evolve, which means the mo…

    Love Kagi the search engine, Helium is the better browser.

    If the judge doesn't know the difference, why are they judging a competition, and also, why is the competition esteemed?

    I think that a lot of software engineers are using LLMs and a lot of very popular tools are developed by, or are assisted by, LLMs. Is this not just going to be a thing going forwa…

    Our country loves to let unregulated & addictive drugs flood into the market, let people become dependent on them, pull the rug by making them illegal, and then arrest them for try…

    There are a distressing number of people in this thread who think that the agent should just be expected to do this. Yes, it is good to be paranoid, but also, the agent should neve…

    I don't care if they're woke, but I do care that every model naturally leans left, but Grok leans right. That signals to me that it's been/being tampered with and I don't like that…

    Right. That is what bothers me. I don't care about the reasoning for them all leaning left. If they all statistically lean left, it makes me question the accuracy of the one that l…

    I know they're all nudged. It's the motive behind the nudging that gives me pause. I assume if other companies are nudging the models, they're doing it for a good reason, to make t…

    I refuse to use Chinese models because I don't trust that they won't backdoor them for geopolitical reasons. I don't trust OpenAI or Anthropic either, for what it's worth, but at l…

    It's not the preferred political narrative of the model that I worry about. It's how brazen they are about altering their models to achieve it. It makes me wonder what else they're…

    I just don't think that I can ever trust an xAI model knowing that they are actively trying to shape its replies to fit a political narrative. How can you trust their models to be …

    Sounds like a good way to either burn out or make shitty software.
