    Again, Zitron provides the numbers for his theories and they’re very compelling. I’m still not seeing any equally compelling arguments as to why this is not the case. Only accusati…

    Yeah, no, just use K3. I’m a member of this and it’s still a pain for some specific for and the output is on par with K3 which has so far been a breeze to work with. Not to mention…

    My personally anecdote on poor LLM usage making things take longer: I had a side (still work) project I wanted to complete that was extremely simple. In my AWS account create an EC…

    Honestly with that kind of usage how do you even know what you’re delivering?

    I have staff ranging from 10 years of IR experience to right out of college. I can tell you that there is an enormous gap in ability between them despite them both using LLMs for d…

    6 years of planning can be thrown away if the community is just now becoming aware of the potential impact. It’s not on the community to adhere to the companies looking to make a p…

    Hey now that’s disingenuous and a misrepresentation of what happened. They didn’t block internet access.

    CFAA laws do not require “Damage” to be done.

    Monitoring for sandbox escapes (and sandbox design in general) is easily done these days. It has nothing to do with nice. These are bare minimum standards we should expect from “bi…

    Right? Like I feel like I’m taking crazy pills. OAI (and now the other OAI companies not wanting to be left out) are running around announcing they started a forest fire through ne…

    I gathered that the most recent advances haven’t been in capabilities of the model but more the way that it’s able to be employed (most recently agents).

    It’s extremely aggravating that AI firms are given the easy task of selling and advertising a product that has obvious potential and uses but feel the need to over hype more and mo…

    It’s a little worrying when larger news outlets start picking up on what Zitron has been saying: https://www.wheresyoured.at/the-ai-demand-bubble/ AI as a tool is useful and will s…
