If you find yourself in West London, also check out Brunel University, all of the older buildings are pure brutalism

Wearing this as an actual crown might leave one feeling light headed

Very cryptic; what are you actually saying here?

I don't recall the bot he was using, it was a rushed portion of the presentation to make the point that "yes these tools exist, but be mindful of the output - they're not a magic wand"

> If a data science team modeled something incorrectly in their simulation, who's gonna catch it? Usually nobody. At least not until it's too late. Will you say "this doesn't look plausible" about the output?

I recently watched a demo from a data science guy about the impending proliferation of AI in just about all related fields, his position was highly sceptical but with a "let's make the most of it while we can"

The part that stood out to me which I have repeated to colleagues since, was a demo where the guy fed his tame robot a .csv of price trends for apples and bananas, and asked it to visualise this. Sure enough, out comes a nice looking graph with two jagged lines. Pack it ship it move on..

But then he reveals that, as he wrote the data himself, he knows that both lines should just be an upward trend. Expands the axis labels - the LLM has alphabetized the months but said nothing of it in any of the outputs.

While we're on an Olivia Colman thread, I can't leave 'Green Wing' unmentioned

How disappointing. Been using premium for a decade now (got it in a 10p sale back in 2015! Those were the days)

Time to start scoping out replacements, this thread is a great start

A highly necessary change, to be sure
