What about the investors who put money into those companies and want to get some money out of that? Does the law say that the companies owe them? Something I thought about recently...

I think to learn a language you need to do as many modalities as you can: Speaking, listening, reading, singing, asking questions to native speakers, asking questions to LLMs, writing, flash cards, etc.

The obstacle with LLMs is that they are specifically going at their own uncanny valley pace. I do see how that might be not a problem for some prompts.

I haven't tried a Chinese-trained LLM for learning Mandarin, so I'm not sure which LLM is best..

I think learning from another human being live who can understand your confusingly articulated questions and who can adjust their answers for you, another human being, that's great.

I heard people say this before. I'm wondering, how do you instruct the LLM to generate the tests? Do you tell it the scenarios that would be covered, or do you just tell it to write tests for the code?

What if the organization who tries to verify sends a request on an app on the user’s iPhone (or whatever device can do the same), and the user scans their face with FaceID to produce a file send to the organization, which will then send that file to Apple to ask if the file represents the right person? I trust Apple so that works for me.

I’d say it’s possible to have creativity when you’re sitting as well. I like to think that’s it’s all about staying active. Reading, diarying, calling a friendind. All of that.

LLMs are like a search engine that autocompletes. It's a tool.
