I dont understand this reasoning at all. You have direct access to the development of "the most powerful technology ever" and your choice is ... to run? Makes this whole stmt somewhat questionable imho. Does get one a ton of atten

I'm not sure your analogy holds, because here the optimization metric is clear and unanimous: every one wants max pass rate at min costs. With the bicycle, some may prefer comfort, others speed, others offroad, etc., so it would not be

skeptical at most, the result could be useful for fellow students I have no doubt other cohorts would rate differently it is known (on HN at least) e.g. that SWEs tend to prefer brevity, contrary to these students apparently

There could be a good technical solution to at least minimize the risk: Instead of relying on the one-shot transcription, have the system double check key facts by asking the patient for confirmation: "Can you confirm you've

There is a correct sense, but we're sort of garbling concepts here: Predictability is the inverse of information density. Low information density enables high compression, and vice versa. It's called entropy. This is basic informa

I'm glad you're pointing this out because not only are these old insights, but I'm also pretty sure I've seen variations of this blog post years ago on even HN already. The author acting as if they discovered this indepe

I too have been wondering about the missing timestamps, and sometimes feel like it would be really useful. My best guess is fear of context pollution, but no idea...
