I’d prefer pigeons. https://www.smithsonianmag.com/science-nature/pigeons-can-spot-breast-cancer-medical-images-180957323/

Yep. LLMs are exceptionally good at picking up the biases in the formation of your questions and running with it. Super annoying

What? The term FUD has been around since at least the 90s, though I think significantly older than that

Grok probably recommends it when prompted for something completely innocuous

If nunneries are as gay as I always imagined in my head, I’m in.

Exactly what I don’t want from a car. I want fewer features implemented better, higher build quality, and zero connectivity.

If this and everything else happening right now is the eventuality, then Humans aren’t mature enough to have an internet. It was a mistake; can we take it back??? Maybe we’re mature enough to have standalone computers… maybe.

I’ve used it extensively almost all my life. I love it. But I have largely stopped since the advent of LLMs. I’ve also changed my uses of bullets. I will now rarely do a flat bulleted list. I will either write sentences or do a nested list.

I don’t think those things are bad, but I see them so much in llm writing that they have, for now, become ugly to me.

Those are the best, though I wish they’d improve the controls.

Yes, our usage is tracked. Managers have statistics broken down by daily usage per agent

The only time it ever says “the real issue is” and is right is when I’ve just corrected it and told it the real issue which it then wastes tokens regurgitating back to me. Gods I miss not having to use this crap at work

If AI were causing real automation improvements and productivity gains, shouldn’t they be extending support, if anything?

“New model is so much better than old model when given test that we never gave to the old model.“

I miss HyperCard.

I listened to it exactly once, but it was live

Seems like you can’t disable from the web? I’ve never used a Gmail app, always used via imap. Fucking hate having to download an app to turn this off. Not my primary email address, but it is my secondary. Should change that…

I haven’t tried in a while, but shortly after gpt4 came out I tried to play chess against it. It just completely changed the board position nearly every move making illegal moves, adding pieces etc. do current models keep track of the board and make legal moves without special prompting to help? Were these assisted by agentic tools handling state?

I believe one of Apple’s papers covered this, that chain of thought and other techniques that increase accuracy decrease perceived creativity. Memory is fuzzy though

I have to use it for work by mandate, and overall hate it. Sometimes it can speed up certain aspects of development, especially if the domain is new or project is small, but these gains are temporary. They steal time from the learning that I would be doing during development and push that back to later in the process, and they are no where near good enough to make it so that I never have to do the learning at all
