GPT-5 is behind schedule

I have to say I finally "caved in" to LLMs last month. While I still think Copilot is useless, I recently had a very complex code that did a lot of crazy bit-flipping and xoring, and I had no idea what is it doing, so I threw it to ChatGPT.. and it knew what it was doing. I also needed to rewrite this code to PHP (for... reasons) while I know very little PHP. And it did that! It was a bit wrong, I needed to correct a…

> 60% of gen Z men are single, 30% women I always do a double take when I read such statistics. How can they possibly add up? Are gen Z men considered particularly undesirable leading to lots of relationships with large age gaps? Is there a ridiculously large overhang of gay women (over men)? Is there a huge number of men with multiple partners? These gender disparities are difficult enough to believe when they come…

I think I recall that being somewhat disputed because the relationship status was self reported, some suggested that men might not consider certain types of relationships as serious but women do, so there's a disparity in reporting what is and isn't an actual relationship and the reality might be more balanced. Sweden statistics, xd. From what I can find after a brief search, there's this one [0] that claims 63% for…

So LLMs are unreliable experts, okay. They're still useful if you understand their particular flavor of unreliability (basically, they're way too enthusiastic) - but more importantly, I bet you have exactly zero human experts on speed dial. Most people don't even know any experts personally, much less have one they could call for help on demand. Meanwhile, the unreliable, occasionally tripping pseudo-experts named GP…

A Scientific American issue where the authors have no idea that they don’t know a topic so just completely make up the content, including the sources. At least magazine authors are reading the sources before misunderstanding the content (or asking the authors what the research means). I don’t even trust the summaries after watching LLMs think we have meetings about my boss’s cat just because I mentioned it once as sh…

Its good to not trust it but that's not the same as it having no idea . There is a lot of value in being close for many tasks!

I'm sure the debate over the definition of AGI is important and will continue for a while, but... I can't care about it anymore. Between Perplexity searching and summarizing, Claude explaining, and qwen (and other tools) coding, I'm already as happy as can be with whatever you want to call this level of intelligence. Just today I used a completely local AI research tool, based on Ollama. It worked great. Maybe it won…

Curious about the AI research tool you mentioned, would you mind sharing it? Been trying to get a good local research setup with Ollama but still figuring out what works best.
