Re:The last six months in LLMs, illustrated by pelicans on bicycles on Sunday June 08, 2025 @06:54AM (#44216129)

My biggest gripe is that he's comparing probabilistic models (LLMs) by a single sample.

You wouldn't compare different random number generators by taking one sample from each and then concluding that generator 5 generates the highest numbers...

Would be nicer to run the comparison with 10 images (or more) for each LLM and then average.
