I always want to donate more to open source projects but as far as I know there aren't any I can get tax credits for in Canada. My budget is strapped just enough that I can't quite…

LLMs literally only tell you what you want to hear. They are Dunning-Krueger machines. Ask it about something you don't know: you'll learn something new. Ask it about something you…

The poem won't be unique. It will follow a basic formula and make sure to pick up the words you asked it to use. You might not get the exact same poem every single time, but there'…

That's because you're beginning with the assertion that LLMs are tools. You cannot create things with an LLM. You can't be creative with them. They are not useful for building thin…

You have to remember that fascism's application of othering is not logical, it's just a convenient method of gaining leverage. The Nazis targeted Jews because it was easy to weave …
