Ask a prediction market and watch someone take the odds into their own hands.

Teflon Don, like Epstein, collected pictures of powerful people doing “embarrassing” things. Unlike Epstein he didn’t use a private island, he used hotels that catered to people with power.

Since you are a software engineer you must know the difference between deterministic software like a spellchecker and something stochastic like an LLM. You must also understand the difference between a well defined process like a spellchecker and an undefined behavior like an LLM hallucinating. Now ask your LLM if comparing these two technologies in the way you are is a bad analogy. If the LLM says it is a good analogy then you are prompting it wrong. The fact that we can’t agree on what an LLM should say on this matter and that we can get it to say either outcome demonstrates that an LLM cannot distinguish fact from fiction, rather it makes these determinations on what is effectively a vibe check.

But doctors and nurses’ minds effectively hallucinate just the same and are prone to even the most trivial of brain farts like fumbling basic math or language slip-ups

The difference is that the practitioner can distinguish the difference from hallucination from fact while an LLM cannot.

We can’t underestimate the capacity to have the strengths of a supercomputer at least acting as a double-checker on charting, can we?

A supercomputer is only as powerful as it’s programming. This is avoiding the whole “if you understand the problem then you are better off writing a program than using an LLM” by hand waving in the word “supercomputer”. The whole “train it better” doesn’t get away from this fact either.

A spellchecker doesn’t hallucinate new words. LLMs are not the tool for this job, at best it might be able to take some doctor write up and encode it into a different format, ie here’s the list of drugs and dosages mentioned. But if you ask it whether those drugs have adverse reactions, or any other question that has a known or fixed process for answering, then you will be better served writing code to reflect that process. LLMs are best for when you don’t care about accuracy and there is no known process that could be codified. Once you actually understand the problem you are asking it to help with, you can achieve better accuracy and efficiency by codifying the solution.

Step 1: place a bet on a prediction market that Dr Oz will be alive past a certain date

Step 2: get others to place “bets”

Step 3: pew pew

Step 4: someone gets rich

Edit: this is why such markets should be illegal

It’s not an either or, many feminists champion other issues.

“We want him to act like a hegemon and purge people based on ideology instead of what they have done.”

Go read “Leadership and the Rise of Great Powers”, written by a member of the CCP to better understand what kind of leader Mamdani is vs the kind you are asking for and the consequences there of.

I read it and still share the same response. You expect him to say he will not hire someone to coordinate trash pickup based on their foreign policies? Lol okay.

Nah, she’s just talking in her sleep because she had a bad dream

They want artificial employees to discipline the labor market but what they will get instead is a deskilled labor force and business structures that are even more resistant to adaptation.

Who’s the bigger idiot: The person working a service job that has little time to acquire new technical skills to understand what a VPN is, or the person who actually has time and resources enough to shitpost all day but hasn’t sufficiently read enough to understand what systemic or structural issues are in regards to society.

Admittedly I struggle to comprehend how one can express regret without also expressing a desire to change their pattern of actions. I see businesses do that because they can act like a psychopath. Which I guess is why I don’t see it as an apology but a giant red flag.

Guy actually wins the election and the popular vote and you say he did worse than Harris?

It’s funny, we hear about “be nice or you will push them further right” but really it’s the shitty policies that push people to look for more extreme solutions. Wait, that isn’t funny…

One thing I learned from non-violent communication is that we are not responsible for their feelings. To worry that we might say something that can push them further down a rabbit hole is them weaponizing their emotions. We should treat them with greater civility than they showed here, but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t tell them how odious their politics are.
