@TheRedNed11482 @mattyglesias For a better benchmark you need to try using an AI agent that has direct access to a set of AI optimized legal tools.

“It patches logic based on immediate constraints. It carries the scar tissue of every "no, not like that" instruction you gave it. The code eventually represents the history of your struggle to articulate what you wanted.”

[Matt Duignan @FourthMode]

“When you ask an AI to solve a problem top-down, it starts "easy" as it generates the code that "just works". As the code evolves, it becomes interleaved with the process in which you arrived at the final solution.”

For anyone trying to find the now retracted statement from Anthem re: anesthesia billed time units, it was a little tricky to extract from the wayback machine (lost inside a JSON file so it doesn't display)

Belatedly sharing this great perspective from Eli. Finding ways to communicate UX insights as a memorable framework can be critical to making them live on in an organization. https://t.co/Qli3Ko4omz

Confession: I really have no idea what people are talking about when they talk about "free will" and the more I read the more confused I get. And I don't think that's just because it's a concept that perhaps has fuzzy edges.

Apple and Epic's trial comes down to arguing the definition of "game"— Literally the "paradigmatic example" of something impossible to strictly define: https://t.co/BOI4ACFlfX

“We created an entire system for peer-review of durable insights. For something to be branded durable, it would have to go through a company-wide peer-review process” 💬 @FourthMode on durable insights in research repositories https://t.co/BLa0ooVRNK
