I used to think this was true until my company adopted a similar process, and the amount of very senior candidates who used it very ineffectively was highly surprising (eg staff ca…

but you can keep asking questions ad infinitum very nontrivial problem knowing when to stop and making assumptions

intelligence is not omniscience though

gotta make it less obvious

it was terrible for weavers it was great for workers around the world who now can afford clothes

I think a lot of people who grew up in developing countries or low income neighbourhoods adopt this perspective (I did both)

at human-level AGI there would be no need for people to 'buy' when the machines can just do

kind of a hilarious conspiracy theory You are correct that LLMs are trained on existing proofs but hiring researchers to solve unsolved problems is just unrealistic, both in terms …

I play the game for a manufactured challenge People in the real world all having god mode cheats is good, actually

LLMs are increasingly solving math problems on their own, producing entire correct proofs I like Cal but his takes consistently miss the slope of improvement of the technology
