More like bad requirements. The system knew how many dinosaurs of each species had been released into the park, and the inventory system was only supposed to figure out if any were missing. No sense in looking further than that, after all where should the additional dinosaurs come from.

That was the main theme of the book. Everything was well designed with failsafes, but too many of the design assumptions turned out to be wrong. Expecting only the expected lead to many small mistakes that were harmless individually but together snowball into a disaster.
It seems pretty trivial to fine tune a model to do this - this is really playing to LLM's strengths.

Has much been written about his shunning? I've heard just a little bit that it was due to him being from a working class background, but then again an uncle of his (through marriage) was a Fellow at the Royal Society. You think that would at least give you an in.

We think this does reduce DevSecOps friction - even simple things like passing scan results through an LLM to eliminate obvious false positives have an outsized impact.

Thanks for giving it a shot - look forward to hearing your feedback!
I appreciate you sharing your opinion. I definitely don't view myself as a savior. I had a problem that needed solving, and while I was solving it I met hundreds of other people who had the same problem and wanted to use the coach that I had, and needed to hire more coaches to meet that demand. Even now, our product experiences are built alongside all of our members and community and what everyone wants.

this is a cost savings feature that was enabled by electric motor torque at low speed and the consumer's willingness to sacrifice high speed operation to focus on city driving.

It is so absurd having to spend so much energy on "what happened on the football match yesterday" just because the internet is a wasteland full of ads.
I use the “web search” bot on Poe.com for general questions these days, that I previously would have typed into Google (Google’s AI results are sometimes helpful though). It is better than GPT (haven’t tried TFA yet though), because it actually cites websites that it gets answers from, so you can have those and also verify that you aren’t getting a hallucination.

Besides Poe's Web Search, the other search engine I use, for news but also for points of view, deep dive type blog type content, is Twitter. Believe it or not. Google search is so compromised today with the censorship (of all kinds, not just the politically motivated), not to mention Twitter is just more timely, that you miss HUGE parts of the internet - and the world - if you rely on Google for your news or these other things.

The only time I prefer google is when I need to find a pointer/link I already know exists or should exist, or to search reddit or HN.

The difference between LinkedIn and other options is that LinkedIn is also a social platform (in a weird, non-interactive way).

Selection is acting on viruses as well. A virus that makes you very ill won't spread as well as one that makes you a little ill because there are only so many people you can infect while bedridden, and the trend among dominant strains reflects this.
Last month the U.S. House of Representatives voted to "bar new drones from Chinese drone manufacturer DJI from operating in the United States"[1], and even more recently there has been reports that customs is, using some arguably phony justifications, holding up imports of DJI drones[2].

While you are right that the US has not fully passed and officially enforced a country-wide DJI ban, saying that the US is "just" banning DJI usage by the dept of defense, ignores a number of developments suggesting that the US is in the process of a more expansive ban.

This is probably Google's Altavista moment, by making their results crappier by the year in search of Ad dollars everyone has felt that there is a potential for search to be better and once that becomes available they'll be in a continious game of catch-up.

Yes, Google has their own AI divisions, tons of money and SEO is to blame for part of their crappiness. But they've also _explicitly_ focused on ad-dollars over algorithmic purity if one is to believe the reports of their internal politics and if those are true they have probably lost a ton of people who they'd need right now to turn the ship around quickly.

Meaning, there are people in China who are nationalistic, as there are in America. And these have enough of a Chinese over American view they would purchase an arguably worse product for their views.

Of course there are nationalists in China. I didn't argue against that.

As for cultural exports, I think America just dominates the world in that regard. If you want to use that as a comparison China would have to have equivalent cultural exports to be a fair point. And as far as I know most people have no qualms with eating Panda Express, PF Changs, or small Chinese takeouts, which is a Chinese cultural export.

I don't think a few Americanized Chinese restaurants with American owners compare to my examples?

The cultural export power of America is precisely one of the main reasons why I sense that the level of anti-American sentiment in China is not nearly as bad as the anti-China sentiment in the US.

I'm skeptical of that. I'd concede if you provided data but a quick Google search for AQI right now says the worst US city NYC is 54 AQI and Shenzhen is 56. Los Angeles is 33, SF is 19. (source IQAir)

The data is just me walking on any street in Shenzhen and almost never smelling any gasoline or feel the heat from cars.

This wasn't thought of when false advertising laws were drafted. California:

17500. It is unlawful for any person, firm, corporation or association, or any employee thereof with intent directly or indirectly to dispose of real or personal property or to perform services, professional or otherwise, or anything of any nature whatsoever or to induce the public to enter into any obligation relating thereto, to make or disseminate or cause to be made or disseminated before the public in this state, or to make or disseminate or cause to be made or disseminated from this state before the public in any state, in any newspaper or other publication, or any advertising device, or by public outcry or proclamation, or in any other manner or means whatever, including over the Internet, any statement, concerning that real or personal property or those services, professional or otherwise, or concerning any circumstance or matter of fact connected with the proposed performance or disposition thereof, which is untrue or misleading, and which is known, or which by the exercise of reasonable care should be known, to be untrue or misleading, or for any person, firm, or corporation to so make or disseminate or cause to be so made or disseminated any such statement as part of a plan or scheme with the intent not to sell that personal property or those services, professional or otherwise, so advertised at the price stated therein, or as so advertised. Any violation of the provisions of this section is a misdemeanor punishable by imprisonment in the county jail not exceeding six months, or by a fine not exceeding two thousand five hundred dollars ($2,500), or by both that imprisonment and fine.

The language is broad, but they didn't cover the case of ads where no transaction was even contemplated. This is a bug.

Why is it important to know if someone you know has IQ loss or brain fog from COVID? Should that change how you treat them?
Regarding #1: my insurance pays for 100% of my meds. It seems like the extended release versions are the hardest to get covered, but people who can get by with the plain old all-at-one formulations may have a much easier time with that. Also, insurance doesn't pay for my doctor directly, but their website has a place for me to submit out of network claims. I do that with my doctor's receipts and insurance cuts me a reimbursement check for a large portion of the bill.

It's a pain in the neck in the sense that getting all the insurance stuff straight is extra hard when you're in need of being treated for ADHD in the first place. It does give me something to hyperfocus on every couple of months.
> "Lots of people are correctly suggesting this could function just as equally well as a PWA, but I will point out that (all things being equal) there are SOME VALID USE-CASES"

> The concern I have with LLMs replacing search is that once it starts being monetized with ads or propaganda, it's going to be very dangerous.

Not to mention that users consuming most content through a middle-man completely breaks most publishers business models. Traditional search is a mutually beneficial arrangement, but LLM search is parasitic.

Expect to see a lot more technical countermeasures and/or lawsuits against LLM search engines which regurgitate so much material that they effectively replace the need to visit the original publisher.

Perplexity sounds no weirder to me for a tech product than than Google or Yahoo or Apple.
I was thinking more about people who use Tree Style Tabs and have nested Tab folders and such when I wrote that part. It's simple enough to save an entire session as a bookmark folder, to open an entire folder of bookmarks as new tabs (rather than needing to hibernate tabs to save ram while still keeping them "open"), and to search through bookmarks ad-hoc. Bookmark folders can be infinitely nested, categorized, ordered by when you were looking (though searching through your browser history also works for that), combined, copied, pasted, moved, put into or removed from the bookmark toolbar.

It's an incredibly flexible system that allows for a massive variety of workflows and it feels like people just keep finding ways to recreate it, but worse: less platform-independent, eating more system resources, dependent on third-party plugins, or (in the case of using an app for everything) eating up orders of magnitude more storage space at rest.

There is a cost to the employer.

Any smallish 1-2 hour meeting with a couple of people on it can easily cost thousands if you work out people’s hourly wage.

Add on the context-switching costs impacting the rest of their workdays.

Then add the reputational damage among jobseekers - when word gets out that a company is a timewaster, qualified people will be less likely to apply.

In my experience, some types of one-way streets are some of the least trustworthy for crossing on foot because drivers treat them as race courses or interstates with speed limits (and sometimes worse, traffic lights) as barely a suggestion. It's interesting how much excitement as a pedestrian I find at the elimination of one-way streets and replacement with calmer two-way street "diet" patterns. (Street "diets" reduce lanes, add more dedicated turn lanes, smarter medians and parking.)
I don't understand. Google is already excellent at these queries.

"who won the warriors game last night" returns last night's score directly.

"who won the world series yesterday" returns last night's score directly, while "who won the world series" returns an overview of the series.

No ads.
How can that replace search? It's not full of ads and sponsored links. They need to get with the times.

The paper is interesting because CoT has been so widely demonstrated as effective. The point is that it "can" hurt performance on a subset of tasks, not that CoT doesn't work at all.

The idea that police are spending time just scanning photos of trains, flowers, kittens and so on in hopes of finding an occasional violation seems ridiculous to me. If nothing else, you would expect NCMEC to wonder why only 0.1% of their reports are ever followed up on.

a fishing expedition would be the right term for that

No it wouldn't. A fishing expedition is where you get a warrant against someone without any solid evidence and then dig around hoping to find something incriminating.

You never visited 4chan?

I have been a regular there since 2009. What point are you attempting to make?

They first entered your home illegally and found a joint on the table, and then got a warrant for the rest of the house. As pointed out in the article and in the title... they should need a warrant for the first image too.

This analogy is flat wrong. I already explained the difference.

most people (you excluded) believe that police shouldn't search private data of people just because some algorithm thinks so, without a warrant.

That is not what I believe. I think they should get a warrant to search any private data. In this case they're looking at a single image to determine whether it's illegal, as a reasonably reliable statistical test suggests it to be.

You're not explaining what difference it makes if a judge issues a warrant on the exact same criteria.
This is interesting.

Noticed this trend a few years ago from startups keen to look like they were growing much faster than they really were.

I tried hacking this together a month ago as an experiment and it was super painful. This seems like exactly what I wanted - props to OpenAI. Google should be on DEFCON 2.
I like the way the code examples work: A live editor with documentation that shows up on the right hand side (click the Play with Hazel) button.

But does it any more than a live editor and type checker? Can you actually create a program that does something?
I think the skills required will change but more in an adaptation way rather than everything-you-knew-is-now-irrelevant.

I feel like there is a mental architecture to searching where you try and isolate aspects of what you are searching for that are distinct within the broad category of similar but irrelevant things. That kind of mental model I would hope still works well.

For instance consider this query.

"Which clothing outlets on AliExpress are most recommended in forum discussions for providing high quality cloths, favour discussions where there is active engagement between multiple people."

OpenAI search produces a list of candidate stores from this query. Are the results any good? It's going to be quite hard to tell for a while. I know searching for information like this on Google is close to worthless due to SEO pollution.

It's possible that we have at least a brief golden-age of search where the rules have changed sufficiently that attempts to game the system are mitigated. It will be a hard fought battle to see if AI Search can filter out people trying to game AI search.

I think we will need laws to say AI advice should be subject to similar constraints as legal, medical, and financial advice where there is an obligation to act in the interests of the person being advised. I don't want to have AI search delivering the results of the highest bidder.
I'm not sure how flippant you are being, but this is the answer. A wikipedia / wikidata for everything, with some metadata about how much "scientific consensus" there is on each data point, and perhaps links to competing theory if something is not well established.

Coaching is different from talk therapy in that it's focused on more action-oriented, future-oriented concerns. For example, in therapy, you'll talk about WHY / WHERE a specific thought process came from, vs. in therapy you'll talk about how you can design your life in a way that minimizes impact of this thought process. Things like calendar design, routine design, how you do to do lists, skills you may need to learn, the list goes on. These are things that ADHD coaches are trained on and things that therapists likely won't support with. Also, coaching is about accountability so things like check-ins throughout the week and nudge/reminders are a key part of ADHD coaching but not therapy.

Also many of our clients have done (or are currently doing) therapy and come to Shimmer because their therapist suggested it.

And on your point of medication, many people do not want to take medication (cultural or other reasons), or cannot take medication (e.g. side effects or can't mix with their other meds).
I think schools must move on from the "homework" model--that is, the model of education where the students must turn in homework assignments to receive grades that count toward their final GPA--and return to in-person handwritten and verbal examinations as the final measure of student competency. Any system of examination where the task of measuring an individual's competency is outsourced to a fixed system (homework problem set, standardized test, auto-graded essay, take-home exam, etc.) can and will be gamed, including homework. [1] Homework is like working out; it's just practice, and it should be optional.

The only way to keep academia honest and up-to-date is to keep it laser focused on the true purpose of a degree, be it a high school degree or a graduate degree. The purpose of a degree is to confer the recommendation of the institution upon you, certifying that you possess a certain unaided mastery over a body of knowledge. School, especially by high school and certainly above that, should be optional, and your final grades should be assigned entirely based on final exams, rendered in-person and handwritten.

[1] Eventually, people will be able to sneak AI into an examination room via a mini-camera and an earpiece or tiny lens; this will require yet more innovation in testing security and will never be 100% secure.
