starting to think that spending approximately 1,000 hours of the past year reading posts on this site was not actually a good use of time

if it writes code that nobody can understand, that means it's bad at writing code, not uniquely good
5.5 and 4.8 are completely incapable of navigating large codebases written by fable. they conflate basic concepts, no amount of handholding gives them a brain. spent the whole day cleaning up their fucked up mess. whoever posted we should wait fable had a good point. stress

"There is the fascination of watching a figment of the imagination emerge through the aid of science to a plan on paper. Then it moves to realization in stone or metal or energy. Then it brings jobs and homes to men. Then it elevates the standards of living and adds to the comforts of life. That is the engineer’s high privilege."

it actually really sucks that we're replaying the PGP wars but the data doesn't fit on a shirt this time
Replying to @mycoliza

there should be some kind of nonprofit research org dedicated to making AI that's open to everyone. really surprised that hasn't already happened. hey what should we name it

did Congress add LLMs to the Part 121 Munitions List when I wasn't looking, or is the admin exceeding its legal authority again?

what's the plan when a Chinese lab posts a model as good as Claude Fable right there on the Internet for download?

I was almost sold on the Nithya Raman LA Mayor conspiracy and then I remembered, wait, I voted Raman (because Pratt is a dipshit from a TV show) and I did a mail in ballot (because I have a job and no time), and did it at the last minute (because of the ADHD)

I suppose it still could be rigged though, I wasn't personally counting the votes or whatever

every day I would pass by a billboard with an AI slop image of him surrounded by puppies with the caption "If Dogs Could Vote They'd Vote For Spencer Pratt" and all I could think was that this is the guy who is mayor of LA in the Idiocracy universe

the "safety guardrails" are always just restrictions on information from the training data that they used to build the model. the future they have in mind is one where they rigidly control specifically who is allowed to know what things

and the old sources of information are now failing as They construct these systems. the future They want is one where three or four guys decide what ten billion people can read

Dario might be a nice guy, I hear he's got a super mega car that he drives so fast, whatever. certainly Claude is very nice. whatever. the world he is trying to build is a dystopia for you. the only way out is development of open models, which he is lobbying to make illegal

look, Computer People get excited about AI but the proper question is, are we seeing gains on machine-verifiable tasks like coding that we won't see on other tasks? they can run a really tight reinforcement learning loop on "does this Python code have a syntax error" that they can't run as easily on "does this legal motion have an error"
