  • For me it’s because I’m not convinced LLMs are really a stepping stone to any actual AI. They don’t have educational applications imo because there isn’t any way they can separate truth from fiction. They don’t understand the words that they output; they’re just predictive text generators on a huge scale. This isn’t something that can change with better tech either; it’s baked in to the very concept of an LLM. And worse, when they are wrong there’s no way to tell without already knowing the answer to the questions you’re asking. They’re literally just monkeys with typewriters. This is an extremely good article about the kinds of problems I’m taking about.






  • Look, I’m not saying any of them come close to the original, but imo it’s the second best of the series (including all the dogshit jurassic worlds) because it sticks to what made the first one great; small amount of people trapped on an island with dinos. The Lost World was like half that but then it turns in to some weird almost king kong-esq thing. Also i love me some Goldblum but he’s better as a foil imo and Chris Pratt has nowhere near the gravitas as Sam Neil. Like really besides the annoying parents what do you not like about the third one?




  • The sense of obligation towards your coworkers is something companies absolutely abuse and exploit. I’m not saying don’t have empathy for your fellow human, but people aren’t typically incentivized to use best possible solutions if they take more work outside of this obligation so you have to be careful to not let yourself be exploited because of it.
