> this technique is no different from tuning a musical instrument with a tuning fork.

Yes, I get that. But there are two problems. First, you cannot tune an instrument precisely. Precise tuning of a real musical instrument isn't even a meaningful concept because any wave with finite temporal extent has non-zero bandwidth. It's the same with energy. The exact same uncertainty relationship between frequency and time produces the Heisenberg uncertainty relation between energy and time, so it is not possible to produce an isolated photon at a known time with a known energy. The best you can do is produce a lot of photons so you don't have to wait forever for one of them to arrive at your detector. So the problem with the setup you describe is that in step 2 the concept of "that photon" is not well defined.

Second...

> I guess in point 4 there is an issue that you need to repeat the experiment with a new realization of your photon each time.

Yes, that too. But you need to do more than that: in order to get a meaningful result you'd need to produce photons with the same energy, i.e. you'd need to use a laser or some other kind of tuned cavity. But it is not meaningful to identify individual photons emitted from a laser because they are identical bosons.

I often think about Ramanujan in the context of AI, if reasoning is type 2 thinking how did he (apparently) come across a lot of his ideas as intuitions
The first large scale use of the printing press outside books was to print indulgences:

> In the teaching of the Catholic Church, an indulgence (Latin: indulgentia, from indulgeo, 'permit') is "a way to reduce the amount of punishment one has to undergo for (forgiven) sins".[1] The Catechism of the Catholic Church describes an indulgence as "a remission before God of the temporal punishment due to sins whose guilt has already been forgiven, which the faithful Christian who is duly disposed gains under certain prescribed conditions…"[3]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indulgence

This directly lead to the reformation and two centuries of religious wars in Europe which proportionally killed more people than both the world wars combined.

The printing press has more blood on it than ink. By contrast the worst you can say about art models is that they are 'derivative' whatever that means.
I recently asked it to give me code to do gapless playback of audio files using Apple's AVAudioEngine APIs. It got it wrong and additional prompts to explain why it was wrong didn't help.

To me what it seems like these tools do really well is paraphrase stuff that's in their training data.
Example I chose at random:

> Convert a hexadecimal number, represented as a string (e.g. "10af8c"), to its decimal equivalent using first principles (i.e. no, you may not use built-in or external libraries to accomplish the conversion).

So it's fairly synthetic. It's also the sort of thing LLMs should be great at since I'm sure there's tons of data on this sort of thing online.

>sentiment had shifted very negatively regarding AI art.

See the drama around the baby peacock search. The results were not only AI filled but objectively entirely wrong. I'd link you to said drama but I literally can't find it because search is just picking up an echo chamber of AI. Which in a way is pretty meta commentary in itself.

I appreciate the ability to generate images of whatever I want. I don't like the way it's messing with perception of reality in a world which we view largely through screens.

>dislike for tech. This isn’t shared by my friends who enjoy tech at all.

Are they in tech or in the creative space. People I know in creative spaces are anxious while those in the tech space tend to be mixed (doomer vs AI utopia split)
I never understood why ELK/Kinana chose this method, when there's a much simpler solution: Augment each field name with the data type.

For example, consider the documents {"value": 42} and {"value": "foo"}. To index this, index {"value::int": 42} and {"value::str": "foo"} instead. Now you have two distinct fields that don't conflict with each other.

To search this, the logical choice would be to first make sure that the query language is typed. So a query like value=42 would know to search the int field, while a query like value="42" would look in the string field. There's never any situation where there's any ambiguity about which data type is to be searched. KQL doesn't have this, but that's one of their many design mistakes.

You can do the same for any data type, including arrays and objects. There is absolutely no downside; I've successfully implemented it for a specific project. (OK, one downside: More fields. But the nature of the beast. These are, after all, distinct sets of data.)

The term "co-pilot" implies a company has to hire a software engineer to guide the AI.

The term "agent" implies you can give the AI full access to your repos and fire the software engineers you're grudgingly paying six figures to.

The second is much more valuable to executives not wanting to pay the software people that demand higher salaries than virtually everyone else in the organization.

> will that function also get to return a u8?

No, the main function (the entry point of the entire program) is special cased. Have a look at the source code. There you can see it's calling the user defined main function and handling its return value / error.

You can access argv with std.os.argv which is a slice of null terminated strings. It's better to go with std.process.argsAlloc though (requires an allocation but works on all supported platforms).

I've used this method for development successfully (generating CAs and certs on Mac with mkcert), but Apple has broken certificates in iOS 18. Root CAs are not showing up in the trust UI on iPhones after you install them. It's a big issue for developers, and has broken some people's E-mail setups as well. Also some internal software deployments.

Apple is aware of it, but it's still not fixed in iOS 18.1.
i'm sorry, but you have to be extremely naive to think that all these companies actually respect people's work enough to verify that all their training data is properly licensed, and deliberately hinder themselves and put themselves behind their competitors by avoiding any copyrighted work
"Amazon is notorious for allowing shady practices"

Surely, 'conspiring to/orchestrating profit through immoral practices' is a more precise statement of Amazon's activities.
I tend to draw the line at intrinsic vs extrinsic behavior. The model layer must be able to maintain all intrinsic properties. Whenever it would talk outside the application, it's beyond the domain of the model.

Taken to the extreme, you could model all intrinsic constraints and triggers at the relational database level, and have a perfectly functional anemic domain model.
I've gotten lots of offers of discounts in exchange for a review.

Not one has ever conditioned it on expressing a certain sentiment, rating, or anything at all.

But I think most people feel strongly enough they should leave a positive review in exchange for money. It doesn't even need to be said.
There are models around that will answer this question perfectly.

But why would anyone care? If you want to count w's in a word, that's a Python one-liner, you don't need an LLM for that (although the LLM can write it for you).

> Don't simply erase their acknowledgements and appropriate their code.

To be fair - anyone contributing to the GPL ought to be aware of the terms of their license. They're not "appropriating" something that was consciously and deliberately licensed by the contributors for these exact terms of ownership.

These people probably did nothing wrong, but sanctions are sanctions and they apply unilaterally. Their best path of recourse is to fork Linux (which is entirely legal) and continue their work on a downstream basis with patches that can be merged into the main branch.
> No reason why the US can't have the same.

There's one big reason the US can't have the same: the ruling class don't want it.

This isn't some gordian knot. We could have it tomorrow if the ruling class had their feet held to the fire. The fact that we don't is a result of the system working exactly as intended.

The richest person in the world is out in broad daylight shoveling bribes to voters as fast as he can transfer the money, and not only is he not getting arrested, he never will be. It's a dark subsection of a very dark chapter.
> Most of these suggestions are detached from reality, I don't move away from my family because I feel some arbitrary social expectation, I do it because I want space and freedom.

I'm going against the grain a little here, and say that's reasonable. Not all families are great to live with. Heck, I had some cousins I tried living with and nearly permanently damaged my relationship with them.

I will say deciding to live with an extended _found_ family can be awesome. There's usually someone around to help pick up slack, and there's nothing quite like the relationships you can form based on that extended time together.

Even the extended found family thing, though? Not always great. I'd say what communal living does is make for higher lows, and sometimes lower highs. If you're in abundant circumstances where you have multiple close relationships and survival/logistics aren't an issue, it's largely unnecessary -- but if you aren't, it's really worth trying.
What's up with the amateur hour graphs with squashed/pixelated logos?
Unfortunately, the Supreme Court has been systematically attacking all attempts to limit private campaign finance, including public funding.

In 2011, in Arizona Free Enterprise v. Bennett, they ruled that a program that Arizona established which would give campaigns that opted out of private financing public financing matching their competitors financing infringed on the First Amendment speech rights of the privately financed campaign.

That's right, matching private campaign spending with public funding violates the free speech of the privately funded campaign, because it removes their advantage.

The solution to campaign finance needs to start and end with court reform, or it's DOA.
So you use it to get links back to the internet. I expect the non-garbage links part won't last long, in the AI age.
Well, I did say spending and not campaign contributions.

Apple Intelligence seems well positioned to provide some of the best functionality for radical personalization. The potential for new devices to come with additional unified memory intended to run its LLM and vector databasing / additional training, it could use your specific writing style, time certain notifications based on when you’re least/most productive, etc. My guess is that they’re going to make this advanced functionality subscription based, since the vast majority of cases will require Private Cloud instances (unless _maybe_ you’re using a device with a significantly high amount of memory and strong enough M-series processor).
How much is 1 GB*0 bytes? Better serve 1GB of /dev/zero instead! (Or even better, /dev/urandom, because zeroes compress very well and are easy to spot.)
Imo, APIs and to a lesser extent cli tools are already specialized tools made for LLMs.

I've been editing videos with ChatGPT4 + ffmpeg for a year now.
But that is a belief that says it can happen again. It is not a proven belief. And the whole reason we are looking out in space is to prove it.

But I don't think we will find it. Life is special. The earth is special. And all the planets and all the stars and all the solar systems and all the galaxies cannot make something special again. So alas, we are earth. and we are all that is out there. And the rest of the universe is just there for our awe. That is how special we are.

It's not hard at all, it just needs moderation. Amazon is absolutely the bad actor because they allow sellers to edit their listings to utterly unrelated items, rather than having moderators reject those changes. It's not hard to prevent a cheap kitchen utensil with 2,000 positive reviews from being edited into an expensive drone.

And while moderating things like social media at scale has a lot of challenges, moderating product pages does not. There are orders of magnitude less of them, and they don't need to change that often.

> Andy Stone, a spokesman for Meta, which also owns Facebook, said the accounts were disabled for “violating our privacy policy,” that they posed a “risk of physical harm of individuals,” and that the decision followed the recommendation of Meta’s independent Oversight Board.

I love how they just spew vague nonsense, unchallenged. How exactly does knowing that Celebrity X traveled from LA to NYC yesterday "pose a risk of physical harm?" Show the cause and effect, Andy Stone. Paint a believable picture that connects the dots from this information to "harm." But, Andy Stone will never have to actually do that or be specific because journalists just publish corporate PR statements without pushback or probing.
Classic machine learning researcher trick: just select your test example from the training set! It certainly saves a lot of effort.
One would simply specify that for any instruction used by a binary outside some core set, a fallback must be offered. For many instructions, the fallback might be just a few bytes of code.

The hardware would provide some assistance for said fallback mechanism - for example in the form of a pointer to a "fallback vector". If you execute unknown instruction 0x80 then code at the fallback pointer+0x80 will be executed instead.

The binary doesn't have to use this fallback mechanism - for performance critical binaries which want to run fast on different hardware implementations, the compiler could use feature detection to make multiple implementations of some functions, the way many SSE/AVX extensions are dealt with in the x86 world.

Binaries that aren't intended to run on bare metal, but instead run on some OS (eg. windows/linux) could instead specify as part of their ABI which instructions are part of the core, and the OS will ensure that anything unsupported by the hardware but required by the binary will be provided by the OS.
They clearly do not avoid copyrighted work, where in my reply did you infer the opposite?
I'll start with the least important detail but the first one I noticed: the main page features an example image that shows mountains scenery that could have been the foothill of the divide from the south west (based on the combination of the vegetation and peaks), however, the trip planning details are for somewhere in Norway which was very confusing until I checked and saw it was an AI generated image.

But to the more important stuff: the main tools I've been using for trail/route planning (for over 6K miles) are Gaia and CalTopo. These tools have a lot of route building tools and overlays for both planning and navigation and I guess you don't want to replace these tools and if you acknowledge hikers are using these tools already and see a way to complement them somehow, I think you want to let the user directly reference their tracks/routes from within Ambulate as it's unlikely they'd like to replicate their work in another tool.

He has bounced between menial jobs as long as i and my wife have been together, before we had kid we tried to get him to come live here but he refused because he was so convinced he was going to soon be a millionaire. he is otherwise able to take care of himself is emotionally/mentally stable but wont listen to any one that says he is being scammed because the only person that is near him who talks to him is the one conning him.

I think the process could be better, but if you want good quality you really shouldn't expect it to just jump at the "obvious" thing. Just like you wouldn't want the developer to just make the error to away in the quickest way. Getting more context is always going to be a good idea, even if it wastes some time in the "trivial" cases.

All the project/product managers that think they are the ones responsible for team success are going to get a rude awakening. When they try to do the job of an entire team, it's going to come apart pretty quickly. LLMs are a tool, nothing more, they don't magically imbue the user with competency.

And it got some things subtly wrong though so do I/my team. Interesting times ahead I think, but I’m not too worried about my job as a principal dev. Again I’m more stressed about juniors

Generalized version: Using tool to do thing makes you bad at doing thing without tool.

I get where this is coming from and it is true sometimes (e.g. my favorite example is Google maps). But it’s quite silly to assume this for all tools and all skill sets, especially with more creative and complex skills like programming.

Wise and experienced practitioners will stay grounded in the fundamentals while judiciously adding new tools to their kit. This requires experimentation and continual learning.

The people whose skills will be impacted the most are those who didn’t have strong fundamentals in the first place, and only know the craft through that tool.
