And what does that "without knowing what the sentence is even" even mean? Care to elaborate/define it?

Yes

Even with pay-as-you-go pricing I find the models very economical currently (e.g. Opus 5.5). I regularly check in Copilot what I just spent vs. how long it would have taken me alone. Economics do now work out in my favor mostly.

Love this! Not having spent too much time on understanding the architecture I always struggled to see how transformers get away with compressing all context in a flat vector (e.g. 768 numbers here) between attention and the MLP when computing the current token. But now I think I understand that since you often alternate between attention and MLPs it regularly mixes/queries the information of other tokens into the current computation. Probably common knowledge for everyone that learned about transformers but this made it so much quicker to see.

When we rolled out an ERP in our Brazil subsidiary the whole internal consulting team immediately agreed to leave our brains untouched by this complexity and hire a local consultant team as help. And the local consultant team in turn immediately suggested useing a middleware provider.

If you can touch type try this: Go through they keys once alphabetical 'abcd...' recalling the movement from the letter. Then do it the other way round and move your fingers in spatial sequence to the keys and try to recall the letter.

You will find the former much easier if you did not by chance also memorize the keyboard layout for some reason.

Absolutely can relate. Thats why I would say: Do your own diagrams! At least the text and formatting.

Where I do think it ads value is "AI slop 2". This is somehow even better comprehensible than an average photo.

Maybe there is a bias for action within our moral and legal system. Fundamentally if you can deal with uncertainty correctly or "perfectly" wouldn't more information always be better?

Everybody remember when Zuckerberg told in an Interview in 2024 that human data does not matter that much or more specifically "individual creators or publishers tend to overestimate the value of their specific content". Something along the line RL-Loops are more important.

Hard to square this with that acquisition which seems to be focused on Cursors vast amount of User Data.

At least for now.

This does surprise me, because you'd think that even if they crank up the filter's sensitivity at the expense of specificity, an LLM company wouldn't simply design a filter that triggers on keywords in a completely unrelated context.

First test question: "Is the UV Index a good proxy for when to wear sunglasses." Immediately triggered the safety filter ... oh dear.

What wasn't build with AI is that webpage and it's tiny non-scaling text.

Social Media creates distinctive Filter Bubbles. A dominant LLM company (or multiple aligned ones) create one way of thinking.

Was looking for a precise term for that. Thank you!

Also AI-Linkedin-Bullshit likes to use "just" additionally and it's mostly along the lines of Y being something much more impactful then X.
