If the user didn't understand that ChatGPT make up crap sometimes, despite the warnings everywhere about it that they may not read, it could still be a good-faith error to me. ChatGPT was just released.
The story isn't about LLMs doing LLM stuff. It's about lawyers using LLMs as a shortcut for proper legal work, laboring under the delusion that it is entirely accurate, honest and 'intelligent', and the ramifications for the legal system.
Statically linked Qt 4.x wasn't actually so bad. But that's not compatible with the LGPL license for closed-source apps, you had to get a commercial license. The problem with DLL based Qt apps is that you ship a ton of code that's never called.

Regarding the quality of the average Website - no , but also no to the second. The time of the internet was just there with no precedent and now it is hyped imperfect AIs we have to deal with. I think the main problem in both cases is, that most people don't have a clue at all, how it works. (And too many of them are in positions of power).

I would start with a solid understanding of probabilities, statistics, calculus.
"Inertia" in the context of power systems refers to the kinetic energy stored by rotating generators (coal, gas, nuclear, hydropower).

If the system frequency (a real time measure of supply and demand) were to suddenly change (e.g. a power plant were to trip), these generators are still spinning, and dampen the rate of change of frequency. This allows time for the grid operator to take corrective actions.

Inverter connected plant such as wind and solar does not inherently provide inertia.
if you are interested in checking out the codebase[0], you will find that i did make provisions in the database to account for upvotes/downvotes but i wanted to see how many people are interested in the first place before i build more user-driven features.

If the user is a lawyer who officially referenced a case that a) they never read and b) never existed, then the user can’t be allowed to practice law anymore.
Had the lawyer used a fine-tuned model with some RAG to go along with it, I assume it’d have been fine.

This is just people failing to use a technology correctly, like riding a bike without a helmet.
I remember my disappointment when I found out panics could be “caught” and that I was still living in the world of exceptions
> absolution of responsibility

There are some still fighting the fight, but this is already happening¹ when it comes to failure to attribute and other licensing issues. “I didn't copy/misattribute/other your code, an AI trained in part by it was ‘inspired’ by it amongst other code”.

[1] unless you believe the assurances that an LLM will never regurgitate chunks of training material, like the image based models have been shown to
I’ve actually used a mates replit chained gpt-4 app to build short single function apps from a single command that function on first run, so it’s definitely possible, and will only get better - but building code is just following a logical set of instructions down a pathway
Isn’t “hallucination” named after a human phenomena? People too remember things that never happened.

Wouldn’t be solvable with a second AI agent which checks the output of the first one and be like “bro, you sure about that? I never heard of it”.

In my experience with LLMs, they don’t insist when corrected, instead they apologize and generate a response with that correction in mind.
Bombardier is probably adequate as well. Tough to avoid those if you’re flying United Express or American Eagle.
> Did we do a good job, or should we have left that stone unturned?

It's kind of a hangover, don't you think? The past decade, I mean, with the Internet.
The utopian future is governments run by AI.

The Culture series explores this to some degree.
I've recently implemented a rich text editor on top of Automerge and Peritext that supports blocks, inline-blocks (or whatever you call them: images, tables, etc.), unaware that this was in the works. The implementation ended up _very_ close to what's described in the linked post.
Are we using the same ChatGPT?

It cannot write a full app, but that is a matter of context size.

It absolutely can "reason" within bounds, attention is a much more powerful system than you realize.

Chain-of-Thought is a well-established technique for LLM prompting which can produce great results. And the snippets of code GPT-4 generates for me are usually on point, at least they were until OpenAI dumbed the model down in the last few months with GPT-4-Turbo.

I get it not only to write novel code, but explain existing code all the time and it reasons about my code very well.
First of all I dont think we should aim at 100% precision and 100% recall. Instead it is more realistic to use the result as a filter for more downstream testings and treat it as a mean to increase the cost of cheating.

Also we can use more than just the text output. A human writer doesn't generate a piece of text in one pass. Instead they go through the drafting and editing process. We can design devices to capture keypress or pen stroke(iirc ther were studies on fraud detection based on keypress patterns/mouse movment). One can attempt to train a new model to mimic themselves so we need to somehow make sure that the amount of training data required is too much to be worth the effort.

For downstream testing, the goal isn't mainly to verify whether a piece of text is AI genereted but to make sure that a student who can pass the test would essentially have to know the material sufficient well(so this defeats the purpose of cheating).
> They need to be disbarred.

In that NY case, they were only fined $5000 each, which seems like a slap on the wrist.

I think the court was sympathetic to them, as was I. They were the first lawyers to get burned by ChatGPT. How were they supposed to know that a highly publicized product from a major tech company would just make shit up?

But the penalty for lawyers who do it now, after the first case got so much publicity, should be more severe.
> Sounds like then there is not sufficient proof given

You can always find 1 person who will disagree about anything? If you have 1000 jurors that each vote independently I would find it hard to imagine that anyone can get convicted, even people you are basically certain are guilty. After some N, the probability of a conviction becomes indistinguishable from 0, which is not a good system either.
> ugh why didn’t he create this with me in mind?

Who is "he" and created what?

I only said that the poster ("creator"?) of this blog article should explain what from his view the thing is, because the website for the thing (whoever made that seems to be another person) that he links to is superbly malinformative, which I illustrated with vivid examples.

Whoever implemented this library did some maybe good work but he does it a disservice by offloading the explanation to poorly written marketing copy
Not significantly as most of the growth is outside the US and there are far fewer of those deals overseas (not none, but far less).
They tried to show me what they meant.

ChatGPT proceeded to spit out a snippet of rust code, starting with a dependecy outdated by 4 years, proceeeded to mix API from several versions of the dependency and completely ignored most of the request.

Customer do not know rust so it looks amazing to them.

ChatGPT is a great con-man for the gullible.
It doesn’t seem opaque to me and I’m no scientist. Pretty clearly expressed imo.
Or import it as gas/liquids from other countries, which probably accounts for the majority of energy in the majority of countries today.

EVs and renewables will decrease the amount of imports needed for most countries, but a reduced amount might still be needed for some nations.

Only difference will be a less cartelized supply since there's a lot of countries that can set up solar and wind for export.
You'd think that rent and low wages is what keeps the poor poor. Gas in CA is cheap anyway.

> However, it appears to be highly stressful, unrewarding, and most of the time financially unsustainable.

If this was actually true, there wouldn't be any (or very little) open source software. Therefore, it must not be true.

I think the only people who say this are those who unfortunately had run-ins with overly-entitled users and trolls and were not mentally prepared to deal with them in a healthy way. Not that they chose the wrong license for their code.

Perhaps coding boot camps and courses should spend as much time teaching healthy online social interactions as dispensing raw technical knowledge.
Feels very much like all the old block parties I've missed out on
Will there eventually be a 15" model in your product roadmap?

15" sits nicely between your 13" and 16" models, and provides a good balance between screen real estate, number of ports and portability.

Personally I find a 13" to be slightly on the smaller side, whilst the 16" is too large for me.

I am quite sure many people are looking forward to a FW 15" with AMD Ryzen.

Thank you for considering this.
>autocomplete on crack

I have had some really frustrating conversations about this very topic with people insisting on using it for complex tasks like designing business strategies. It doesn't know how to actually answer your question, it's just spitting out probable words associated with the topic in a plausible sequence! It's like Quora with spellcheck and an aura of legitimacy which makes it infinitely more seductive.
You may be right about the molecule, but the car absolutely has a distribution of speeds depending on what you are measuring in relation to.
Dependable.

I wonder how many AI hallucinations stem from the fact that nowhere in the prompt it was said that information have to be real. And this cannot be implicitly assumed since humans like fiction in other contexts.
It's absolutely solvable - and presumably this is the sort of functionality that more legal-specific AI applications offer (probably mixed with some sort of knowledge graph that contains facts).

Seems like the issue here was that a lawyer was just using OOTB ChatGPT.
If the user doesn't understand their tool then they should review what it spits out.

> I found a guy who claims to have the sum of all knowledge, and I've just copied and pasted code from him that I haven't reviewed.

Then either your an idiot and should be disbarred or you are negligent and should be disbarred. As a lawyer you have people's lives in your hands, this is not the time for "woops, sorry I just couldn't be arsed to read what I submitted".
I am curious to know the opinion of those in the US about what I think of as the great American experiment. Namely the bringing together of people (races) from all-over the world in a society. From obviously troubled beginnings (slavery, a civil qwar, various political assassinations all the way into the 1900s), to the 50s, the civil right turmoil and eventual settlement. Attempt at making a mixing pot through to multiculturalism today. Has it worked? What to try next? Will a steady state be reached? What does that look like?

I think people under and overestimate AI at the same time. E.g. I asked ChatGPT4 to draw me a schematic of a simple buck converter (i.e. 4 components + load). In the written response it got the basics right. Drawing that schematic is completely garbled non-sense.

I was expecting something like this maybe: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buck_converter#/media/File:Buc...

I can't speak for the VFX post, but I think the gamedev post shows the weaknesses of git in one line:

> Git does have problems, we’ve had processes fall over on projects, many times actually, but it’s always solvable.

Every team that I've worked on would replace that tool with someonthing more stable if it existed. It does for version control, and it's perfoce, which comes with a hefty license fee, and a _different_ set of problems.

The selling point of Pipetrack is the commutativity, but to echo the comments in those threads, I've never found myself wanting commutavity. In games I want a mainline branch, support for large assets, granular access controls, performant, shared global system, and a method to cleanly differentiate between wip changes and ready changes in a way that works with non-technical users, and won't be the highest individual line item per-user subscription we pay for. Unless the selling point of your tool fixes one or many of those problems, it's not going to help in games.

Honestly, I think we'd be better off on SVN than git most of the time, but the _tooling_ around git is far superior.
It is weird that there is not a single mention of Hezbollah [1]. I think this is "data washing" (not cleaning). Even, to give context in an article.
The main case I ever found was implement missing language features. E.G.

break 3; // Break 3 levels up

break LABEL; // Break to a named label - safer-ish than goto

goto LABEL; // When you have no other option.

Usually for breaking out of a really deep set of loops to an outer loop. Such as a data stream reset, end of data, or for an error so bad a different language might E.G. throw an error and usually die.
Hard disagree.

They should have taken a look at what they were submitting. That is literally their job.
I'd say not all guys enjoy the kind of "guy talk" you're describing ... maybe it's harmless in your experience but it can be quite aggressive, or perceived as such, even if you're not emotionally bothered by it.

It's especially terrible if you have to go along in the workplace because you're talking to your boss and are expected to laugh about his (potentially charged) "funny quips" because "guy talk", amirite? Ugh ..
> No, anarchism can be "organized" (i.e. have structures)

I think you are talking about syndicalism.
IMHO we need both taxes and incentives. Use the taxes to pay for the incentives. Make the polluters pay for the fix. That would be fair but we don't live in a fair world.

Carbon taxes seem a lot more controversial (especially among anti-tax populists) than incentives are because "borrowing" (aka printing money) is a nice loophole where you can have lots of incentives without taxing people for it.

Incentives are less controversial and a lot easier to implement. Everybody likes benefitting from incentives. And they work. Republicans hate increasing taxes but they love printing money as much as the Democrats do. They only are in favor of reducing the deficit when they are not in power. When they are, the deficit goes up. That was true under Trump, both Bush presidencies. And even Reagan spent more than he cut and increased the deficit. Spending is just easier than cutting. Economies are not circular. You don't have to raise every penny you spend via taxes.

That's also how the inflation reduction act works. Which is an ironic name because printing an extra trillion or so dollars is going to have some inflationary effects. But it undeniably has a great stimulating impact as well as there now is a lot of economic activity around renewable energy that is creating a lot of growth, jobs, etc. A trillion $ in new taxes would have most of the US population picking up pitchforks and heading out to lynch politicians. Sadly, some of that goes straight to the oil and gas industry though. But at least they now pretend a bit harder that they don't want to continue to rake in billions by getting us to buy oil and gas for as long as they can get away with that.
> the intent of the shareholder bloc supporting it is to reduce global carbon emissions from fossil fuel companies.

But that's why it makes no sense. The emissions caused by the customers are not emissions "from" fossil fuel companies. Exxon is not using the fossil fuels. If you want to reduce the emissions, talk to the customers. They're the ones who are doing the emitting.

It's like if Wal-Mart sold 500,000 tons of rice and you say that Wal-Mart ate all this rice. They didn't, the people who bought it did.

I suppose I could try to get into the activist mindset but it's painful to bang my head against a wall that hard and I'm worried about permanent damage.

Hi - I know about Scaleway, it is <0.1% of the size of AWS, and it is very French as you noted. Still they are doing good work.
I feel bad giving negative feedback, but I'm not sure the world needs a dedicated site to generating a simple command like this. I'm genuinely not trying to be elitist, but do users really have a need for this?

I suppose if you add support for every single feature you've superbly well documented in "The Ultimate Mysqldump Guide", which is indeed impressive, then perhaps.

But even then, I think users would likely prefer to use PHPMyAdmin or DBeaver etc, where real values can be selected?

Out of interest, what is your motivation for doing it? Are you planning to monetize/banner advertize it somehow?
At this moment, I am compiling GCC 10.5 on a RPi Model B with 256M of RAM. The root filesystem is on a ramdisk embedded in the kernel. The SD card from which I booted is read-only.

The compilation runs not from the SD card but from a chroot to a large external drive plugged into the RPi via USB.

Once I have GCC and rest of the toolchain built, I then use it to compile custom kernels with embedded ramdisks.

There are entire subreddits of people who believe that ‘AI’ is by definition infallible. I feel myself getting sucked in and going slightly crazy just spending a few minutes reading it.

Those places seem to mostly be populated by disenfranchised people who are desperate for some ‘crazy alien tech’ to come along and overturn whatever systems they feel led them to their current (miserable) lives.

“Anyone who doesn’t think that in two years’ time AGI will have ushered in a new age where we all live on UBI and are free to explore our passions isn’t paying attention/has no idea what’s about to happen”, etc. etc.

Needless to say, none of this stuff has anything remotely to do with, you know… empirical evidence or theory. But reading endless reams of it for hours a day can certainly make you think it does.
They are impressive technically. I love mechanical things.
That's pretty cool, can you incorporate other traditional 3D assets and have them look decent when rendered alongside this?

> they don’t insist when corrected

That’s just OpenAI’s RLHF and instruct tuning though. Bing Chat’s Sydney had the temperament of a moody teenager and would often contradict or accuse people of being wrong when pushed.

The correct way to solve this is to use retrieval augmented generation (finding relevant cases using embeddings and then feeding the data along with the question), so that the model is grounded to the truth.

Is GPT-4 just passing a prompt to DALL-E to create an image? The garbled diagram makes sense since DALL-E isn't supposed to be that intelligent or an AGI.
While I can understand your point, I don't think it was fair to assume that my case is like that.

This wasn't an issue of design. It was an issue of them not making decisions without good information. Trying to throw an fconv network at a task that clearly requires positional invariance (convnet was appropriate). They had never done ml before and didnt know anything about it.

Another one was going crazy with docker, and costed them a good year and a half. Idk why the boss insisted everything be behind docker. and i mean everything. He just thought containers were a selling point
Slippery marketing plays a big part in this, so I can't blame kids for thinking that. I remember the commercials for these toys and there was an implication that dialogue was possible (specifically remember a commercial where kids are introducing themselves to a Furby and the Furby responds in kind).

To look at another example of how dishonest marketing tends to be aimed at kids, Kevin McCallister had a Talkboy in Home Alone 2 that, for purposes of the film, had absolutely insane fidelity when it came to recording a playback. As someone who actually owns one (I collect and repair old electronic toys and computers as a hobby), I can tell you that the film and marketing definitely oversold the devices capabilities. The playback in particular is really quite awful, and this assessment comes from a fully restored device.

Another interesting point in your comment reminds me of a parrot my grandma had when I was young. Not a visit to Grandma's would go by without little me trying to secretly teach it cuss words while nobody else was in the room. What a time!
> Will Nintendo try to shut this down?

The game is in development since 3 years, it took nintendo <24h to DAMC a mod which changed pals to pokemons. The fact that they know about it but haven't taken any actions implies they don't expect to be able to take down the game, at most force it to remove a few specific pals.

> quiiiite similar to existing pokemons

A lot of Pokemons are quite generic if you ignore their fine details. Not just in later generations but from gen 1 one. Besides that paying homage to predecessors in art and games is pretty common.

> Why haven't Nintendo made a proper game like this themselves? Everyone has been wanting it for decades by now.

Nintendo mainly makes their Pokemon games for (quite) young people, Pokemons with guns you can enslave to do your work kinda don't fit in there ;=)

And "open world Pokemon catching with Pokemon openly running around" is something the did make with some of the recent games. (Through from what I have heart it wasn't that grate.) That they have to fit whatever they create to run on a switch is probably part of the issue, too. The switch is very slow and if you do something at the limit of an hardware platform you have to spend much more time backtracking because some grate idea is a bit to compute or graphic intensive and run into issues like micro-optimizations making code harder to maintain, debug and in turn change and fix bugs.
i'm aware of zig, which is why i included the criteria above that i take to rule it out.

"Single function app".. how is that different from a snippet?

Show me a proper app generated by ChatGPT.

You can't, because ChatGPT can't.
By "taken a look at what they were submitting", I assume you mean use a different tech product, like LexisNexis? In the end you're still trusting technology.

And technology was usually trustworthy, until AI. If Google Scholar cited a legal case, I wouldn't doubt its existence.

It took some time for people to recalibrate for this new world where technology lies.
Nice! This seems a great way to kill the need for bidirectional links between notes (for some use cases, at least).

Your critique falls flat (pun intended) because there is no DTMF here.
