Example when you ask eg “top 10 sights in Amsterdam” or something, some hired data labeler probably saw a similar question at some point, researched it for 20 minutes using Google and Trip Advisor or something, came up with some list of 10, which literally then becomes the correct answer, training the AI to give that answer for that question. If the exact place in question is not in the finetuning training set, the neural net imputes a list of statistically similar vibes based on its knowledge gained from the pretraining stage (language modeling of internet documents).

Google has taken over the task of thinking for many of us, and that is a frightening tragedy. If, after all these years of schooling, we outsource our basic reasoning to Google—allowing it to form positions on matters we have neither studied nor understood—then we are truly doomed.

Whoops, I just made myself obsolete.
Yes, this is an LLM running actual TypeScript code and checking it for errors, right in the browser.

OK, I know it’s a meme, and I know people use it as a joke, but I’m getting tired of the throw away line: “They’d better learn to code.”
Software development is not a throw away job and is not a consolation prize. Ex-reporters at the New York Times are not likely to become good programmers.

Cool idea for a buyout clause structure:
It’s a buyout package, spread across 7 years, with quarterly installments, with a contingency NDA clause; if breached, the remaining payments are forfeited.

What's more exciting to you:
Building AI-powered apps, and wrangling LLM's to do what you want them to?
Or the new breed of tools like Cursor/v0 which speed up day-to-day development?

The impact of Stripe on business’ data quality cannot be understated. Sales data fat fingering is just… not a problem anymore for many businesses?
