If you vomited out a bunch of AI slop that nobody read, history shouldn't care.
The first person to package it up for human consumption and get everyone to agree it is correct should get all the credit now. If you can't get up in front of a seminar and have pretty much everyone walk out understanding what you meant... then too bad, history forgets who you were...
As someone who hated undergrad math and physics approaches to vector calculus--until I found _Div, Grad, Curl and All That_--I'd argue that shitty hard textbooks are just shitty. There seems to be a cultural bias toward asceticism here, where suffering purifies the soul.
Dunno what is wrong with your numbers, but they're significantly undercounting, and likely [deliberately] excluding all the SuperPAC money that Republicans got from megadonors.
(Musk alone spent $290M on the 2024 election, so your $0.2B number is ludicrously low)
Anothropic really needs to be considering the fact that a lot of those people will be working in IT--and when their bosses start complaining about the checks they're writing to Anthropic, they'll have solid experience with alternative solutions to suggest.
Uh, we're not allowed to use Claude to even mod games that fully support mods?
Based on how every time I ask it a virology question about SARS-CoV-2 and I get a refusal, I'm quite worried about how far-reaching this will be.
And given the bug churn, something is very wrong with the testing harness. Either there was grossly insufficient testing to start with (indicating the humans involved were not taking the job of building a database server seriously enough), or else the LLM agents were mangling the tests to get the tests green while breaking the code (indicating that there was either no human review or the human reviewers didn't know enough about how the test+code ran to be able to catch the LLMs misbehaving).
What I fear is that the humans will implement more and more layers of LLMs to monitor the LLMs, rather than slow down development and learn what their code actually does.
Any given individual, though, is going to find themselves a certain amount off center from the aggregate number.
And how come criticizing left-wing protests is fine, but bringing up right-wing botting/trolling operations on this website isn't?
"Curious..."
I aggressively block/hide anything right-wing, and yet somehow "the algorithm" thought I'd be really into that...
People were just losing their minds on here over bugs in the 27.2 beta release that hasn't even shipped yet, with wild conspiracy theories about what Apple was doing.
So you wind up with a typical megacorp release process where nothing can happen if it isn't signed off in triplicate and two operators crack open the books with the missile codes and turn the keys at the same time to launch the update.
The result is that shipping a single file for a critical security update takes way too long.
Browsers came along and they wanted to maintain their own cert store because operating system flat files were often out of date.
Operating systems grew their own stores because they wanted some kind of registry that was more integrated with the rest of their ecosystem.
Nobody coordinated. CLI tools and unix libraries don't care about browsers or O/S registries, operating systems have requirements so that they can't use the flat files, everyone screams about stuff like systemd turning unix into windows.
And it will continue to proliferate. System management tools often ship their own certs since the O/S certs can be out of date and untrustworthy and may not be able to talk to AWS before you bootstrap the management tool and update the system certs because people still run ancient shit like RHEL5. This is more or less the same reason browsers ship their own as well. I've made the decision to ship an embedded cert store in a product before, and nothing has fundamentally changed that would cause me to rethink that decision (even though for people who have an up-to-date O/S it is strictly additional cost that they now have to track a cert store in another product--but you have to build for the lowest common denominator).
I suspect what is happening here, though, is that Anthropic is going to take a bunch of Dunning-Kruger AI researchers who throw prompts at Claude and publish 1,000 papers worth of drug-discovery slop that will only waste the time of actual experts...
they do at least enough sentiment analysis so that "fuck off" behaves like "stop" and they respond that they're removing you from their list and won't contact you again.
No, it doesn't. "Passed by Clinton" and "Passed by Obama" are the statements that oversimplify politics.
> The position in the United States to make sure people vote aligned is called Whip.
That is also a gross oversimplification of our politics.
It isn't exactly a desert? It is more like a full buffet, but nothing but cheap, mass-produced sugar literally everywhere. All the 2-star donuts and chocolate cupcakes you can eat, and nothing but that.
(We really should require pardons to pass a bipartisan Senate committee where there is no odd-numbered tiebreaker vote and require one defection across the aisle to approve--or something like that)
that almost never happens.
stop hoping corporations grow a soul and a conscience.
I find intrusive advertising toxic and want it all reduced or banned.
Not just tobacco and gambling ads, but everything else as well.
(No, I don't care that it is like advocating for democracy in 10th-century England and would entirely blow up how our economy currently "works")
I just started on a GLP-1, and it has already been an interesting lesson in the subjective nature of food drives and hunger.
I've heard for literally years the advice "just drink some water it will trick you into feeling less hungry".
And I've always suspected this was some bullshit placebo, because that OBVIOUSLY doesn't work (so I thought). Water doesn't replace food, it just fills up your stomach so that eating becomes somewhat more unpleasant. But the food/hunger drive is still there unabated.
Well, except after taking a GLP-1 I actually experienced the sensation of drinking something and having my hunger go down. Whatever that circuit is, it has been broken in me for at least my entire adult life. So giving me that advice had been like trying to explain the color to a blind person.
Which, oddly, ties a lot more into the subject title than the example the author gave...
We can't have that...
The math slopocalypse isn't useful without being able to turn it into math that can be taught to actual humans by finding the underlying unifying principles.
All those O(n log(n)^(1-delta)) results suggest that there's probably a unifying "trick" behind all of them and that there's going to be an upper bound on delta for any problem. You should really be able to teach that in a textbook and then have any human student replicate any of the LLM results as worked problems.
For anything that an LLM manages to prove with thousands or millions of lines of Lean code, there's likely a missing branch of mathematics sitting there somewhere.
Actual humans need to beat on the problems and the LLM-generated solutions until they come up with the underlying principles, probably using AI to help them do it.
You probably won't get there by just asking an LLM to invent a new branch of mathematics and "don't make any mistakes"; the mathematicians who get good at directing LLMs to search for unifying principles, and then synthesizing (and double-checking) the results, will likely be very successful in their field.
It just means you can do jumps and stunts programmed into the vehicle at the push of a button with zero skill at being a stunt driver.
The Dukes of Hazzard had to do that without the thrusters.
Can't wait to see how people kill themselves and other people with those things by being stupid...
Hopefully that shit gets blocked by the DOT and kept off public roads--which is probably the goal to get a bunch of drooling simps outraged over "government overreach" keeping them away from their "flying cars".
