Above I was talking more generally about full autonomy. I agree the combined human + fsd system can be at least as safe as a human driver, perhaps more, if you have a good driver. As a frequent user of FSD, it's unreliability can be a

Ultimately, anecdotes and testimonials of a product like this are irrelevant. But the public discourse hasn't caught up with it. People talk about it like it's a new game console or app, giving their positive or negative testimoni

It's difficult to do because of how well matched they are to the hardware we have. They were partially designed to solve the mismatch between RNNs and GPUs, and they are way too good at it. If you come up with something truly new, it&#

We need a silver tongued LLM agent that can align all these forces (and a well provisioned MCP paypal tool for greasing palms)

He’s playing the game. You have to say AGI is your goal to get attention. It’s just like the YouTube thumbnail game. You can hate it, but you still have to play if you want people to pay attention.

Sometimes we get confused by the difference between technological and scientific progress. When science makes progress it unlocks new S-curves that progress at an incredible pace until you get into the diminishing returns region. People com

False positives for this tech is absurdly high and law enforcement treats it like it’s perfect. That’s enough of a reason to make it illegal.

There will have to be a new IP framework to make sure people are properly incentivized to produce content in an AI first world.

I hope they can figure out why these give some people headaches and eye strain (like myself) I really want to use this, but can't stand the pain for more than a few minutes.

Sounds like you found a good problem for the students. Having the experience of failing to get the right answer out of the tool and then succeeding on your whits creates an opportunity to learn these tools benefit from disciplined usage.

This article captures a lot of the problem. It’s often frustrating how it tries to work around really simple issues with complex workarounds that don’t work at all. I tell it the secret simple thing it’s missing and it gets it. It always ma

The pedantry in the comments of a todo app is exquisite. HN never disappoints. Very nostalgic OP, warms my heart 10/10

Sort of, but in a good way, if I’ve spent $15 on a problem and it’s not solved, it reminds me to stop wasting tokens and think of a better strategy. On net it makes me use less tokens, but more for efficiency. I mostly love that I don’t nee

I prefer just paying for metered use on every request. I hope monthly fees don’t carry over from the last era of tech. It’s fine to charge consumers $10 per month. But once it’s over $50 let’s not pretend you are hoping I under utilize the

I wouldn’t beat yourself up over it. Very few papers can be understood without reading a significant amount of the neighboring literature and the history of how that work came to be. There are norms and customs and a kind of academic langua

If you pretend/imagine it was intentional, and insightful, you've created a nerd trap for amateur ontologists. Some of which decide to become professional ontologists and sell books on objected oriented design.

The python zoom in seems performative. A vision model already has access to all the data, how does zooming in help it? Still very cool that it can!

These glasses give me an instant headache and 1080p is abysmal if you are used to 5K displays. I love the idea, hate the actual glasses.

It’s fascinating how the debate is going exactly as the car debate went. People were arguing for a whole spectrum of environment modifications for self driving cars. I’ll take the other side of that bet. The software industry won’t make thi

People expect the llm version of siri to be an agent, not a chat bot. There's a very wide gulf between a chatbot like chatgpt and an agent like... well I haven't found any good agents I'd give write access to my calendar yet

I had the same experience, it was very fun, but makes it extremely difficult to get excited for corporate career goals after doing something like that.

He needs to learn grit and how to ask for help. He needs to learn some things are hard and that he can’t always lean on his intelligence. The best way to guarantee a gifted kid wastes a lot of their potential is to be in an environment that

Yep, we all have to hit the wall and that’s where we find out what we’re made of. It can be a valuable experience with the right people around to help.

Yep. LLMs can get all the unit tests to pass. But not the acceptance tests. The discouraging thing is you might have all green checks on the unit tests, but you can’t get the acceptance tests to pass without starting over.

A big issue with all this housing wealth is that it's fake. If a good business goes up 10x in value, it accomplishes that by providing more valuable goods and services to people. If a house goes up 10x in value, that could only be achi

I don’t think I could say anything that hasn’t already been written about the causes of this problem. But, I’m glad we have some tools that make things more pleasant while we work it out. Also existence of said tools could provide an incent

I think of it as the return to 10 blue links. It searches the web, finds stuff and summarizes it so I can decide which links to click. I ignore the narrative it constructs because it’s probably wrong. Which I forgive because it’s the hazmat
