I’m gonna need you to explain yourself. What a strange choice

I would advocate for changing the link to the primary source, rather than a reblog of Fabian Sanglard’s original work

I trust that you can use your reading comprehension skills to understand that by referring to a famous example of LLMs producing garbage, I’m simply using it to illustrate the phen…

It makes perfect sense to me. Type in a prompt like “how can I make the cheese on my pizza stringier” and maybe it’ll tell you to use different cheeses, but maybe it’ll tell you to…

It was a red flag because artificial intelligence doesn’t exist, and anyone claiming to use it or work on it is either lying or delusional in thinking they could accomplish it. Now…

What the fuck

I couldn’t disagree with this more if I tried. The biggest benefit of the internet is to make it easier to talk to each other and share ideas. Putting financial gates in front of t…

“Objectively smarter” is the last descriptor I’d apply to software developers

I’m confused. What about the footer are you referring to?

Oh I think this lesson teaches quite a lot. Maybe your instructor is deliberately screwing up, but perhaps other end users are just not paying attention, or are missing assumed kno…

I don't think anyone is suggesting one build Linux from scratch and then use it as their primary OS. The value of LFS is not in having the system you build, it's in understanding i…

This is a subtweet in blog form. Without concrete examples or critiques it isn’t any more substantial than whining about “kids these days” Edit: I admit there are plenty of concret…

This feels less like changing the landscape and more like trying to stop a new neighbor from building a four-level shopping complex in front of your beach-front property while also…

jfc thank you for the context

I can’t tell if you’re being satirical or not…

They are still considered a paper of record, but I chose to use a hypothetical outfit because I don’t love the Times myself but I believe the argument to be valid. I’m not interest…

I'm not a fan of NYT either, but this feels like you're stretching for your conclusion: > They hired "experts" who used prompt engineering and thousands of repetitions to find high…

1-5: not a concern It'll be the lawyers who need to go through the data, and given the scale of it, they won't be able to do anything more than trawl for the evidence they need and…

It sounds like the alternate path you're suggesting is for NYT to stop being wrong and let OpenAI continue being right, which doesn't sound much like a compromise to me.

> prevent the loss of being the middle-man between events and users I'm confused by this phrase. I may be misreading but it sounds like you're frustrated, or at least cynical about…
