Unfortunately, it doesn't look like the EU will actually be able to put any meaningful guardrails on AI, as evidenced by the AI act. I honestly don't know whether it's an off-the-s…

Uhm... duh? > or cannot control any of the inputs to the llm Seeing as LLMs are non-deterministic, I think even this is not enough of a restriction.

Unlikely, because the free version of ChatGPT isn't really making them any money, so less tokens is actually better — which I assume is why anthropic pushes Haiku models on free us…

I think part of the problem is that you need a model to classify the data, which needs to be trained on data that wasn't classified (or a dramatically smaller set of human-classifi…

Was it only a BNF parser generator or did it also help with implementing the language's actual functionality?

I've never heard of such a thing, but it sounds amazing! Out of curiosity: How exactly did it work (for users)? I assume you'd write a grammar on the one pane, but how did you teac…

I think it's more like "Company X is big and we have to be like company X if we want to be big too"

Not that I know of, but definitely something I'm gonna put on my 'future project ideas' list.
