> I’ll find you a buyer…I just—enough,’ Altman said on Gerstner’s podcast.”

Hopefully nobody reading this has experienced it: these are the words of a true sociopath/addict.

"I'm mad you questioned me" is fucking classic.

I told dang I was out and I am after this. Sorry dang.

Isn’t that the current status quo?

You understand that an LLM can only poorly regurgitate whatever it’s fed right? An LLM will _always_ be less useful than a primary/secondary source, because they can’t fucking think.

You’re right. Nothing resembling ”I” exists when shat out from an LLM.

I’ve never worked in such a space where the deployed environment had unfettered internet access, no access at all actually.

I’ve probably missed a huge wave of programming technology because of this, and I’ve figured out a way to make it work for a consistent paycheck over these past 20 years.

I’m also not a great example, I think I’ve watched 7 whole hours of YouTube videos ever, and those were all for car repair help.

I shy away from tech that needs to be online/connected/whatever.

I believe that the M in LLM stands for model. It is a statistical model, as it always has been.

C++11 fucking with strings also comes to mind.

I have small amounts of eczema on unfortunate spots. It comes and goes usually based on stress and inflammation. Been dealing with it for decades. It stinks.

I’m half tempted to buy myself a copper plate to stand on.

Going to college usually means you work the same job after college, just with a lot more debt.

The headline is flawed, nothing that exists today is relatively close to “AI” unfortunately.

I thought that, an an American. Then I went to Paris in 2013, and realized it was a learned trait!

> America just sucks for foodies who don't have unlimited time to get through the slop.

I think by definition, being a “foodie” means you have, and enjoy finding, the time to sort the wheat from the chaff. Nobody has unlimited time for anything.

“I want to be be a ‘foodie’ but really I just want to be judgy” is a weak argument.

Yeah, it’s like saying Netflix doesn’t create value, or Universal Pictures doesn’t create value. I do not agree with the GP. As far as I can tell, openAI has created very, very negative value as of today, financially.

Correct, they have been around for a lot longer than rust.
