It'd be odd if people batted eyes before the 1st nuclear weapon came to be, but not batting now.

"from so simple a beginning endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been, and are being, evolved."

Apparently less so in the case of his offspring.

I wonder if people are wrongly just going to start calling random, completely-unrelated-to-LLM bugs in software "hallucination". Very similar to the meaning of AI changing in recent years to include basically any software that has some type of algorithm or heuristic built into it.

You are the horse. Platforms realized they don't have to keep making faster horses or cars or whatnot if they just turn their users into zombie-like creatures who mindlessly click on what's presented to them albeit just to chase that next carrot of dopamine.

Pretty sure he's following the rules and besides what business do you have imposing on this thread when you have nothing to contribute in terms of the conversation?

To say biggest "private equities" in the world own large portions of each other is absolutely correct. It's nitpicking to resort to technicalities of what arm of Blackrock owns what arm of Vanguard, not at all the point and it only distracts from the main point about conflicts of interest when it comes to the control of publicly traded media, NBC, CNN, newscorp (almost all media that matters) and thus suppression of free speech.

You're wrong.

Feels more useful for something like cli where you want to run one-off commands to test something instead of running it in production given how non-deterministic the behavior can be for example for something like

  chat.ask "What's being said?", with: { audio: "meeting.wav" }
definitely don't want users to get a valid response only 75% of the times, maybe?

Never seen HN turned against someone so vehemently, it's as if a group of bots was set lose to criticize a certain individual.

You do realize you and your OP are currently top comments in your respective threads both criticizing Elon and even preemptively criticize your imaginary criticizers

The idea that air traffic control radio can be chill when multiple CRJs crashed within weeks is questionable.
