Ok, if there was chiptune music I think I _would_ like the after shots better.

The before and after images in “prompting for frontend aesthetics” are hilarious. Did no one look at these to make sure the skill actually improved the design?

Every single one of the 6+ talking heads in the video were identified as co-founders and two as CEO. What an odd company…

Do you regularly measure your own blood pressure on a daily basis? I’d imagine if this were common most people wouldn’t know.

  > It is widely known that an LLM can only find data it has seen before.

What does this mean? It’s obviously not literally true, so what is the author trying to convey?

This misstates the small number of legal opinions and orders on this topic, none of which form binding precedent outside the districts where the cases happened. So even if a court had found that “LLM output is public domain” (none did) that wouldn’t make it “the law” until it went up the appellate system and was upheld.

Our current laws simply weren’t built for this and I expect the legal status of LLM output is not going to be resolved until Congress actually legislates on this topic.

Maybe this article has something useful to say but the painfully LLM-generated prose is too distracting to make it evident.

  > People do care about income streams for their descendants or charitable organizations

Society created the concept of copyright and intellectual property for a reason and it is emphatically not the protection of income streams after you are dead. Whether a person exists who cares about a thing is not a reason to preserve it.

What on earth is the liability situation for these models? If OpenAI has a monster in a lab that is doing real world monetary harm to other companies, could those parties sue for damages over it? Or could OAI be charged criminally for the many varied CFAA violations which definitely happened here? I get that in this case that wont happen but it’s only a matter of time before these questions are no longer hypothetical.

The judge’s dicta about protecting children in her pro-privacy ruling upholding existing law “tips their hand” that they are somehow part of a global conspiracy to eliminate privacy?

I think your conspiracy theory needs work, to be perfectly honest with you.

  > you can't have one LLM to read your mind to prompt another LLM

I’m excited to inform you that we as a species have developed a particularly useful facility known as Language which these LLM tools are evidently rather handy at wielding. This facility is particularly useful in this context when it takes the form of “dialog” or “questioning”, which can be used to propagate abstract ideas by means of mutually-feedback-guided-iterative-Language-use-turns, or more concisely, “conversation.”

One might even say that this remarkable facility can be used to “read” the ideas from one entity’s mind, such that after sufficient dialog the second entity obtains a (possibly lossy, but there are mitigations for this) copy of the ideas of the first. You might further be surprised to learn that this sort of idea-transfer business using language has already been happening in our society and species for quite some time indeed.

You’re at least 18 months out of date claiming that prompting will be the new hot skill. Turns out LLMs are also good at prompting other LLMs.

Unlike other model/harness pairs, codex+gpt also passes an opaque encrypted artifact speculated to be an embedding representing the conversation back to the successor generation which is “denser” or at least higher fidelity than summarized text.

I am sad that there doesn’t seem to be any community whatsoever around _truly_ open models that are released with source data and training methodology, such that they could actually be reproduced given the resources. We’ve allowed the term “open” to be diluted to a shocking extent.

Terms and Conditions are contracts and have repeatedly been affirmed as such by the courts.

True, illegal contract provisions are not enforceable but there’s not actually an allegation that anything illegal has taken place.

It sounds like you are describing the world as you with it existed rather than as it actually does.

I’ve been struggling to understand the reason for the newer apparently less efficient Anthropic token encoding. If all inputs are less efficient in this encoding, why does it exist? Has Anthropic released any information that would convincingly show it was anything other than a stealth price hike? Please don’t respond if you are speculating.
