Isn’t that the current status quo?

You understand that an LLM can only poorly regurgitate whatever it’s fed right? An LLM will _always_ be less useful than a primary/secondary source, because they can’t fucking think.

You’re right. Nothing resembling ”I” exists when shat out from an LLM.

I’ve never worked in such a space where the deployed environment had unfettered internet access, no access at all actually. I’ve probably missed a huge wave of programming technology because of this, and I’ve figured out a way to make it wo

I believe that the M in LLM stands for model. It is a statistical model, as it always has been.

C++11 fucking with strings also comes to mind.

I have small amounts of eczema on unfortunate spots. It comes and goes usually based on stress and inflammation. Been dealing with it for decades. It stinks. I’m half tempted to buy myself a copper plate to stand on.

I thought that, an an American. Then I went to Paris in 2013, and realized it was a learned trait!

Yeah, it’s like saying Netflix doesn’t create value, or Universal Pictures doesn’t create value. I do not agree with the GP. As far as I can tell, openAI has created very, very negative value as of today, financially.

Correct, they have been around for a lot longer than rust.

Is this a “you’re holding it wrong, you idiot” post?

So the whole crypto anonymity thing isn’t actually real? As it turns out, tracing people is still easier than tracing money? Decentralized economies are run by criminal enterprises?! We aren’t safe!?! Wonder how this whole concept overlays

Most countries don’t do it, including the US. “Ready and willing” is quite the turn of phrase.

So, you agree?

Are you tracking that harvesting REM is a nasty business with a lot of “don’t look” environmental impacts? As such, most countries don’t do it, or have an infrastructure for it.
