Hm. I thought LLMs weren't free. Am I missing something?

I was referring to a couple of countries in Asia.

Something to think about: perhaps the problem is with the duration of the appointment, and the difficulty of getting one in the first place? Elsewhere in the world, doctors can and do spend more than 12 minutes figuring out what's wrong with their patients. It's the healthcare system that's broken, and it _can_ be fixed without resorting to chatgpt. That it won't is the reality, though

Tell us you've never worked in a faang without telling us.

Your claim is that LLMs are better at "x" than the alternatives, for some value of x.

My point is that your claim is unsubstantiated.

... and bear more load as well.

Wow, the Mandelbrot set example really put things into perspective.

Unoptimized code would easily take tens of minutes to render the Mandelbrot in 640x480x256 on a 486. FractInt (written by Ken Shirriff) was fast, but would still take tens of seconds, if not longer -- my memory is a little hazy on this count.

Transputers were a 1980s CPU innovation that didn't live up to their original hype, and have little to no connection with TransMeta.

Indeed. It is the enigma of success in an industry with no franchise value.

I think you just proved my point - but hey, to each their own.

Good luck, again!

You're concerned about the author's bias contaminating your thinking, so the solution is to outsource your thinking to the LLM, because it's impossible for one of them to have any sort of bias at all.

This, instead of actually thinking yourself, and examining your own biases - or those of the people who wrote what you read

Right. Good luck!

Maybe actually making the interviews less of a hazing ritual would help.

Hell, maybe making today's tech workplace more about getting work done instead of the series of ritualistic performances that the average tech workday has degenerated to might help too.

Ergo, your conclusion doesn't follow from your initial statements, because interviews and workplaces are both far more broken than most people, even people in the tech industry, would think.

After reading this post, I fear that LLMs and their ilk will make humans terrible at reading and comprehension, and impair their ability to think, much as how the advent of a car-first society resulted in many humans following a sedentary lifestyle to the detriment of their health.
