Thinking with and beyond LLMs
As a someone with a stutter but loves to talk using voice tech sometimes induces anxiety. I hope this gets integrated into models.

More power to this young explorer!

As someone who recently attempted this, I feel attacked lol. To be fair it does feel messy to follow the rules in English.

With LLMs enabling easy, if noisy, KG creation extracting knowledge into a computable form will lead to advances.

Drug discovery already uses the tech heavily, wouldn’t be surprised if it expands to more domains quickly now.

Re:How the placenta evolved from an ancient virus (2020) on Saturday January 20, 2024 @08:26PM (#39074511)
There are probably thousands (and my guess would be much more) viruses that that dance on the information playground that is our genome, metagenome, and the genomes of the organisms we host. Fighting a few of them is probably not going to be a significant issue.

Having more individuals around by itself would also lead to mutations which the environment may select for in the future. By itself there is no such thing as a beneficial mutation (gene import) unless the environment proves it to be.
