I think this "we ignore you" behavior is specific to Norse, behaving like a low-cost airline in financial trouble. Whatever they can save from such incidents by ignoring customer complaints benefits their bottom line.

Given that it took me some time to locate someone willing to act as my representative, I consider that a way to send him more business. I can point to his LinkedIn page, but not sure if he checks messages there.

OP here. I wrote this up because the discourse around AI in legal contexts usually swings between "it replaces everyone" and "it hallucinates case law and gets you sanctioned." This was the case in the middle, where it a

Point well taken. :-) I actually touch on this exact risk at the very end of the post. AI can automate drafting and knowledge retrieval, but that is only a fraction of the overall process. The legal system is fundamentally slow, by design.

Not an issue of cost, at all. Absolutely the easiest solution would have been to have a written exam on the cases and concepts that we discussed in class. It would take a few hours to create and grade the exam. But at a university you shoul

I agree that I am not yet confident to use this approach for my technical classes. I am still very unhappy with any option for assessment for technical classes, but I would not trust an LLM to come up with good questions. NotebooksLM does c

Guys, thank you for such fooling around. All these adversarial discussions will be great for stress testing the system. Very likely we will use these conversations as part of the course in the Spring to get students to see what it means to

Not the case for the class in the blog post, but we also have many online classes. Many professionals prefer these online classes because they can attend without having to commute, and can do it from a place of their own convenience. Such c

Just in case, I am the author of the blog post. For our "AI" class, it felt like a good class to experiment with something novel. No, we do not want to eliminate the pen and paper exam. It works well. We use it. The oral exam is y

This is a regulatory requirement, part of the "Know Your Customer" doctrine. In plain words, banks are required to know who is the client who has opened an account. Most banks will be risk averse and will not open an account to an

The comparison with Uber and Whatsapp is not the proper one. These are private companies that were funded and acquired, respectively, purely on growth potential. OpenTable has been a public company for almost 5 years now (see http:/&#

Correct. I started explicitly ignoring these categories: Too much load for the crawler and the financial indexes were already carrying this information.
