Like, today?

It’s a bold strategy Cotton, let’s see if it pays off.

OK, so I’ll put you down for Monday?

I’m a moderate user for code. LLMs are not smart, they’re pattern machines. Anyone who cedes critical thinking to them without due diligence, gets what they deserve, and likely didn’t really have much in the way of critical thought in the first place.

These companies are all trying to figure out how to monetize their latest juked benchmark stat and create something with actual value equivalent to the billions in investment they’ve thrown into processing. The industry is awash in startups dong the same thing 90000 ways. Human lust for money and power is the most nefarious thing about it all.

OoooooooooK. So, who wants to start a betting pool on which day this week we get martial law? Price is Right rules?

Imma say Tuesday.

I haven’t lived in the US in a while, and every time I visit and one of these things starts shouting at me, I wonder how anyone tolerates this shit.

Occasionally you’ll see one button that’s more worn, maybe bottom right iirc, that mutes it. Doesn’t always work, though.

Honestly, unless there’s a shared currency to keep afloat, regional bodies like this are always a tentative benefit at best. Especially in this neighborhood.

Rwanda is orders of magnitude more just a normal, functional country than DRC.

Because it’s a fear-mongering angle that still sells. AI has been a vehicle for scifi for so long that trying to convince Boomers that of won’t kill us all is the hard part.

I’m a moderate user for code and skeptic of LLM abilities, but 5 years from now when we are leveraging ML models for groundbreaking science and haven’t been nuked by SkyNet, all of this will look quaint and silly.
