It's a given now that LLMs are leveraging code to do things.

"On it's own" generally means "not steered" or otherwise given professional guidance or input.

I would say "developed the necessary software for a simulator" to be even more impressive - "here solve this problem" and "OK, but first I have to built the entire lab!"

Sounds like the paradox of tolerance. Being tolerant of intolerant people just gives them a platform to spread their intolerance.

I think it's not just token limits - I think it's because it's so _dense_.

You get a week of research and debugging and testing compressed into a few pages. Even if it's explained well, it's just so much information. And since it's AI, I'm constantly second guessing "is that really true?" and it's exhausting.

Weird there's no information about that here.

But if they went down in cpu usage and memory usage, removed a memory leak, and are MORE compliant with nodejs... it sounds like a MASSIVE success?

OpenRouter offers 1% discount to save your conversations, explicitly opt-in.

Anything else they don't save it. Even if they tell you the model provider saves your data for training.

Only do one new thing at a time.

Don't drive a new car, using new a new type of engine, with a new type of steering wheel, with a new type of entertainment system, .... all at once.

WHEN something goes wrong it will be intense trying to figure it out.

When we have GPT-7 it will still do AI-speak?!

>Asking "what have note-taking apps accomplished?" is like asking "what have spreadsheets accomplished?" or "what have cameras accomplished?". A tool doesn't accomplish anything on its own. A tool is a means to an end.

Yes, but, the _shape_ of something does offer affordances of what it makes easier or harder to do. So "obsidian" vs "saving files on my computer" does seem to be a legitimate question.

The blog claims rust chosen mainly to address memory issues, which rust is a better language for. So, success would simply be less new memory errors / easier to patch old ones.

>At least I've done what I can do, but we can't save people from themselves.

Why should doctors NEED to save people from themselves?

The default should be what the people in the industry have learned, with full permission to say "For myself, I have written a legally binding document that this is my personal wishes. I suggest you make that decision for your loved one, too."

Patients have the ability to ask for more, but there shouldn't be a constant need to save people from inadvertently choosing risky/painful low payoff medical care!

>Blockchain... NFTs >The problem is, the same dudes who were pumped for all of that bollocks now won't stop wanging on about Artificial Intelligence.

I was firmly in the camp that blockchain was not a viable solution to any problem, and that NFTs sound stupid. I think AI is much different than that list. So, there goes your argument?

I hear your pushback, but that I think that's his point:

Even seasoned coders using plan mode are funneled towards "get the code out" when experience shows that the final code is a tiny part of the overall picture.

The entire experience should be reorganized that the code is almost the afterthought, and the requirements, specs, edge cases, tests, etc are the primary part.

My theory is that even if the models are frozen here, we'll still spend a decade building out all the tooling, connections, skills, etc and getting it into each industry. There's so much _around_ the models that we're still working on too.

I definitely didn't expect one-shot to mean "let it run itself in an indefinite loop"

Surely there's AI usage that's not morally reprehensible.

Models that are trained only on public domain material. For value add usage, not simply marketing or gamification gimmicks...

Of course my first thought was: Let's use this as a tool for AI searches (when I don't need recent news).

Never seen that one, thanks! Alt text: "Our brains have just one scale, and we resize our experiences to fit."

Wow, looks like a tremendous commitment and depth of knowledge went into this one-man project. I couldn't even read the whole write up, I had to skim part of it. I'm super impressed.

But "utter crap" isn't just an aesthetic issue - that can mean all kinds of bugs and malfunctions!

Will give it a try, thanks!

I don't like the thinking time, but for coding, journaling, and other stuff I've often been impressed with Gemini Pro 2.5 out of the box.

Possibly I could do much more prompt fine-tuning to nudge openai/anthropic in the direction I want, but with the same prompts Gemini often gives me answers/structure/tone I like much better.

Example: I had claude 3.7 generating embedding images and captions along with responses. Same prompt into Gemini it gave much more varied and flavorful pictures.

The eiruv only works as a loophole for the added stringencies by the Rabbis. Anything that's considered totally public in actual Torah Law (which is a big debate what exactly that is) is not subject to the permissibility of creating an eiruv.

Isn't "left or right" _followed_ by rationale asking it to rationalize it's 1 word answer - I thought we need to get AI to do the chain of though _before_ giving it's answer for it to be more accurate?

The benchmarks in many ways seem to be very similar to claude 3.7 for most cases.

That's nowhere near enough reason to think we've hit a plateau - the pace has been super fast, give it a few more months to call that...!

I think the opposite about the features - they aren't gimmicks at all, but indeed they aren't part of the core AI. Rather it's important "tooling" that adjacent to the AI that we need to actually leverage it. The LLM field in popular usage is still in it's infancy. If the models don't improve (but I expect they will), we have a TON of room with these features and how we interact, feed them information, tool calls, etc to greatly improve usability and capability.

I've been using that as a test of new LLMs - and do it in a specific style.

I assume they mean when the phone is "turned off" meaning the screen is off, not powered down.
