The problem is a system which allows politicians to be influenced in this way, and the group of politicians that accept said influence. The lobbyists–while not very admirable in their own right–are simply acting in their own self-interest. Someone–those in charge–needs to deny them.

This is Delta's choice, though. There are still quite a few other airlines, for the "average" flight, and fliers still reserve the right to vote with their wallets if they perceive better value elsewhere, meaning Delta may have to adjust to that (depending on the risk they're willing to take/how accurate their personalized pricing models are).

Yep. Just see YouTube comment sections with clear pornographic images in certain users' profiles–accounts which have existed for enough time for the dumbest of moderation campaigns to have identified as inappropriate.

I often see this with non-native English speakers, for better or worse, when looking at other comments from folks who write like that. With that in mind, issues like these bother me less.

Perhaps there's still value in the documents being transformed by this tool and someone reviewing them manually, but obviously the real value would be in reducing manual review. I don't think there's a world–for now–in which this manual review can be completely eliminated.

However, if you process, say, 1 million documents, you could sample and review a small percentage of them manually (a power calculation would help here). Assuming your random sample models the "distribution" (which may be tough to define/summarize) of the 1 million documents, you could then extrapolate your accuracy onto the larger set of documents without having to review each and every one.

I'm happy to see this, but you are but one person, and probably an outlier. GP was clearly talking about society in general.

Congrats on the launch! I've been keeping up with you folks since you last posted (a few months ago, I believe). How does Anthropic's recent announcement of Claude's "computer use" abilities grab you? What key differentiators does Skyvern have, at this point in time ("computer use" with Claude being relatively new)?

Could you elaborate?

Ugh, I feel exactly the same way. In fact, I've spent the last 2 weeks refactoring our entire LLM pipeline to completely root out LangChain. I'm just implementing basic RAG from scratch, which 1) has me learning a lot more quickly and 2) feeling much more in control of the entire pipeline.

My observations parallel those of many in this thread. Another thing I've noticed, but wasn't able to properly "name" until someone I work with did so, is the idea of a "pocket veto." [1]

There are two people on my team who have become extremely disengaged of late–and I think one has good reason–and one way this manifests is in their agreement to do or fix something, but those changes never actually being implemented. I find myself having to follow up many times to ensure things don't get lost in the shuffle. But I don't directly manage one of the people, and it seems like they just DGAF what I say–no matter how I approach them. "Strong suggestions" really don't go anywhere. Pretty apathetic, if you ask me.
