1. Content Generation:

LLMs can be used to generate high-quality, human-like content such as articles, blog posts, social media posts, and even short stories. Businesses can leverage this capability to save time and resources on content creation, and improve the consistency and quality of their online presence.

2. Customer Service and Support:

LLMs can be integrated into chatbots and virtual assistants to provide fast, accurate, and personalized responses to customer inquiries. This can help businesses improve their customer experience, reduce the workload on human customer service representatives, and provide 24/7 support.

3. Summarization and Insights:

LLMs can be used to analyze large volumes of text data, such as reports, research papers, or customer feedback, and generate concise summaries and insights. This can be valuable for businesses in fields like market research, financial analysis, or strategic planning.

4. HR Candidate Screening:

Use case: Using LLMs to assess job applicant resumes, cover letters, and interview responses to identify the most qualified candidates.
Example: A large retailer integrating an LLM-based recruiting assistant to help sift through hundreds of applications for entry-level roles.

5. Legal Document Review:

Use case: Employing LLMs to rapidly scan through large volumes of legal contracts, case files, and regulatory documents to identify key terms, risks, and relevant information.
Example: A corporate law firm deploying an LLM tool to streamline the due diligence process for mergers and acquisitions.
The best analogy I've heard for explaining Texas to non-Americans is that Americans view Texans the same way the rest of the world views Americans.
I recall seeing a regional breakdown on what different parts of the US call the frontage road. Fun fact, apparently the Houston area is the only place that uses the term "feeder road" (or just "the feeder").

In fact, being from Houston, I'm pretty sure most people wouldn't know what you meant if you said frontage road. It's that pervasive.

We do this, actually. Usually in the form of project demos when students complete a longer project.

But also consider: I have ~200-250 students a semester. Even at 10 minutes a student per semester (and really...how much can I learn about a student in 10 minutes??) that's a whole lot of hours.

I also don't get paid hourly. I also don't get paid a lot. Teaching isn't exactly a high-paying job in the state Uni system.

There is also a subset of people who will go out of their way to dunk on Texas. I'm not Texan myself and feel the place has its pluses and its minuses (some of them huge ones on both sides of the ledger). But sometimes I'm like "come on, really, that's a cheap shot."
There's also the Economist as I've noted many times, which has a three-tier support: subscriptions, ads, and bespoke consulting through the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU).

That not only provides multiple funding legs, but also strongly incentivises robust journalism as the publication is effectively an advertisement for the EIU's reports (many of which contribute to substantive reports in print).
> Is there a name for this, when people come up with a plausible sounding scenario for crime driven disaster, but it does not actually have basis in real world?

Also I agree with ChatGPT that it's midway between these two things:

> Urban legend: This is a widely circulated but false story or belief that often serves as a cautionary tale. The "razor blades in candy" story is a classic example, as it's a narrative that spreads fear but lacks evidence.

> Moral panic: This term refers to a situation where public fears and anxieties about a perceived threat (often related to crime or social issues) are exaggerated by the media or other influential sources, even though the threat may be minimal or non-existent. This can lead to widespread but unfounded concerns, like the Halloween candy scare.

In a previous post, you said this:

> This feature suggests Google understands what was said.

Running .includes() on the client does not imply that Google has any "understanding" of what was said. It only implies that they ran .includes() on the client. includes() does not "understand" anything.

The thing I really don't understand is this: the fact that Google has closed captions at all implies they do an enormous more "analysis" than this minor feature could possibly require. If you understand how Google does CCs and what that means, this shouldn't have bothered you at all.

In your analogy, it's like you see a mound of a hundred thousand cockroaches, but you're are worried about a dust speck in another room.
I can't be alone in thinking that LOOP usage produces nearly unreadable code. It's extremely difficult to figure out what the intended behavior is if you don't have decades of reading them under your belt.
Yeah, the thing that took me a bit to understand is that, when you do a search (or AI does a search for you) in Slack, it will search:

1. All public channels

2. Any private channels that only you have access to.

That permissions model is still intact, and that's not what is broken here. What's going on is a malicious actor is using a public channel to essentially do prompt injection, so then when another user does a search, the malicious user still doesn't have access to any of that data, but the prompt injection tricks the AI result for the original "good" user to be a link to the malicious user's website - it basically is an AI-created phishing attempt at that point.

Looking through the details I think it would be pretty difficult to actually exploit this vulnerability in the real world (because the malicious prompt injection, created beforehand, would need to match fairly closely what the good user would be searching for), but just highlights the "Alice in Wonderland" world of LLM prompt injections, where it's essentially impossible to separate instructions from data.
I'll accept that.

“AI” never existed, at least AGI never did. AI that works is called machine learning and it’s not going away because it actually drives revenue at many companies. But the people who are working on that were working on it before blockchain and they’ll be working on it long after the next hype cycle runs out of steam. Unlike grifting, actual expertise takes time.

I have mixed feelings. On the one hand, I have a ton of schadenfreude for the AI maximalists (see: Leopold Aschenbrenner and the $1 trillion cluster that will never be), hype men (LinkedIn gurus and Twitter “technologists” that post threads with the thread emoji regurgitating listicles) or grifters (see: Rabbit R1 and the LAM vaporware).

On the other hand, I’m worried about another AI winter. We don’t need more people figuring out how to make bigger models, we need more fundamental research on low-resource contexts. Transformers are really just a trick to be able to ingest the whole internet. But there are many times where we don’t have a whole internet worth of data. The failure of LLMs on ARC is a pretty clear indication we’re not there yet (although I wouldn’t consider ARC sufficient either).
I feel like, unlike the 970's last 512Mb of memory that slows the whole card down dramatically when accessed, most users will never know the difference here.

I was recently in a similar situation, not concerning glioblastoma but a different type of solid tumor. I'd look into either neoantigen vaccine trials from reputable universities/companies (e.g. BioNTech) or T cell therapies (e.g. Immunocore). Adding some checkpoint inhibitor as a coadjuvant might help too.

I work in the field and IMHO neoantigen vaccines are the way to go, but personalization of antigen payload is still lacking. This is a bit paradoxical as production is not that expensive, you can get a custom made one for < $6000. The trouble is to pick the right epitopes considering the tumor, the patient's MHC/HLA, his skewed immune responses, etc.

I use WeakMaps all the time. While most cases where I’ve wanted to iterate through a WeakMap are achievable through other means, it usually comes at an inconvenience that usually greatly reduces the utility of using the WeakMap in the first place.

If you’re using a WeakMap to avoid having to do lifecycle-type logic of removing from a map(s) under such and such circumstances, it would often be nice to be able to eschew such lifecycle logic by having items be automatically garbage collected, while still being able to iterate through the items in the map.

> In the end I wrote a join tool myself, which can automatically find paths between distant tables in the schema, but it seems ludicrous to have to homebrew something like that.

I mean, I think the issue is just that there are lots of possible paths so it can't be automated.

If you want to join employees to buildings, is it where their desk is assigned today, or where their desk was assigned two years ago, or where their team is based even though they work remotely, or where they last badged in?

Sure you can build a tool to find all potential joins based on foreign keys, but then how do you know which is correct unless you understand what the tables mean? And then if you understand what the tables mean, writing the join out yourself is trivial.

> Unless your schema is really fucked up, there should only be one or two actually sensible ways to join across multiple tables.

In my experience, having just one or two ways is for simple/toy projects. Lots of joins in no way means a schema is "fucked up". It probably just means it's correctly modeling actual relationships, correctly normalized.

CDNs have mechanism to rate limit that you can easily configure, and they will be better at this than a ruby gem (no offence to that).

This a terrible defence.

The reason there's a belief of an SSO tax is not that you have to pay more to get SSO, it's that companies use SSO to get you to pay for features no-one ever wanted but they did a lot of development on because they know you need SSO.

I had a very similar intro experience to dev. I started with some friends as a hobby, and my first paid jobs were when I was hired to do a bunch of small tasks in different projects. Add some animations in this Ember project, fix some bugs in this Wordpress project, add a very specific feature in this Angular project, etc. I probably did a terrible job at that time and I'll always be grateful, but it also taught me A LOT about jumping into a foreign codebase and start working on it almost right away, especially since I was paid hourly and I was super-aware I was paid to fix the problems and not to learn the code. IMHO what this article explains is one of the most valuable bits I retain from that time.

It definitely has that Tesla Autopolit feel to it, where the marketing is ... enthusiastic, while the onus to "use the tool responsibly" is left up to the end user.

I'm building a persentation/teaching tool for teachers and trying to not sweep the halicination angle under the rug. My marketing angle is that the AI is a huge time saver, but the classroom teacher is the subject expert and they need to review the output. At the end of the day, it's still much more time efficient for an expert to review the content than it is to produce it from scratch which is a huge win.

I've just gotten interested in Dokuwiki for use in a small association I've joined which is slowly realising that just having a free Slack account is not going to cut it for all our shared knowledge needs.

And since we have a WordPress site, Dokuwiki is about a 30-second installation away.

Looking into the project governance/maintenance it looks sturdy- while seemingly one person does a lot of the work, there's a community there. It appears to me, a newcomer, like a project that could last a very long time while being boring and doing exactly what it needs to, no more and no less.

As for the subject of the post itself; for a single person personal wiki, I'd also use Obsidian. I love that I can sync it to my phone with Syncthing, which is a mild pain but free!
I could be wrong but given how fast things change in this business, this seems to test very micro level skills not the learning and adaptability skills.

This doesn't suit the concept of all books, particularly non-fiction references. The article name-drops _The Joy of Cooking_, which is a suitable example of a book that strives to be useful and that benefits from new editions gently reworked to be correct and current.
I've done the equivalent of this by asking them to describe an interesting bug they've encountered in past lives; how it came up, how they hunted it, how they fixed it. By listening to them describe the work, asking questions, and following their thought processes, you can come to a fairly good hire/no from this single walk-through.
