gonna have to put on clothes

shit we better vacuum.

The peacocks I’ve seen are so loud they can be heard at the top of a 25 story condo. I’ve literally seen people sell their condos because of the damn peacocks. Maybe they only have peahens?

I’ve seen aunties grab a chicken by the neck and just spin it around till the head comes off.

It sounds to me like the guy told the neighbor “stop feeding my birds, I’m going to slaughter them soon”, and the neighbors who had been feeding the birds without permission reported them?

Anyways. Peacocks are annoying as hell. Preposterously loud.

This. There is a colony of them up the road from me. Dumb as rocks and louder than they have any right to be.

Thats what I think. If they had the super secret “next best thing”, they’d be pumping it for all its worth. The models themselves have felt asymptoted since 4.0. The engineering around those models has improved, but the underlying models haven’t.

There is also a hanging chad around alignment. There was much-ado when I think it was 4.0 or 3.5, around some jailbreaks. Everytime a jailbreak got fixed, the models got worse.

None of this makes any sense unless there is some super secret versions of these AI that they’re holding back from the public. Nothing about the current models is what they claim it to be. Its a useful tool, sure, but its really only as useful as the skill of the operators, and I don’t mean “prompt engineer” or whatever other bullshit you call that. I mean actually developers and engineers who have had the time in the trenches to know what is going to work or not work.

Use AI to generate a codebase for an app. Get to an MVP. Then, try and make a change. I dare you to. Its a fucking disaster. These models are not up to the task. Its a structural issue. They have no conception of how things fit together. They’re constantly just making shit up whole-cloth, and beyond that, they’re just gaslighting you to sound smarter than they are.

They can be used to make demos. They can be used to solve already solved, well trodden problems. But thats really about it. You’ll spend 4 hours trying to get it to change one basic component. They’re exponentiating the amount of calories burned, but not the amount of work done.

There will always be a special place in my heart for serial, where I can just jam in a paperclip and “guess around” with a voltimeter till I figure it out.

Me thinks they doth protest too much.

Like, to say Hasan said whatever you claiming they said. Its says more about you than it does them.

If it’s not independent and visibly so, expect it to be a right wing corporate rag

I think you would be surprised by their reach. Watch him walk down the street and it’s not 18-20 yos recognize him. It’s Aunties and uncles. Real voters.

People are moved by honesty and consistent perspectives.
