@AnatoliKopadze A loop is only valuable if it has a real verifier, state, and a stop condition.
The enterprise version of this will be more about gates, audit logs, budgets, permissions, and escalation paths. Autonomy is only useful when the system can prove when it is done and when to stop.

@anything I just tried the iOS application and I like it very much. In a few minutes i could make a prototype and start tinkering while on the phone. That's magical ! Bravo !

A number of people are talking about implications of AI to schools. I spoke about some of my thoughts to a school board earlier, some highlights:

1. You will never be able to detect the use of AI in homework. Full stop. All "detectors" of AI imo don't really work, can be defeated in various ways, and are in principle doomed to fail. You have to assume that any work done outside classroom has used AI.
2. Therefore, the majority of grading has to shift to in-class work (instead of at-home assignments), in settings where teachers can physically monitor students. The students remain motivated to learn how to solve problems without AI because they know they will be evaluated without it in class later.
3. We want students to be able to use AI, it is here to stay and it is extremely powerful, but we also don't want students to be naked in the world without it. Using the calculator as an example of a historically disruptive technology, school teaches you how to do all the basic math & arithmetic so that you can in principle do it by hand, even if calculators are pervasive and greatly speed up work in practical settings. In addition, you understand what it's doing for you, so should it give you a wrong answer (e.g. you mistyped "prompt"), you should be able to notice it, gut check it, verify it in some other way, etc. The verification ability is especially important in the case of AI, which is presently a lot more fallible in a great variety of ways compared to calculators.
4. A lot of the evaluation settings remain at teacher's discretion and involve a creative design space of no tools, cheatsheets, open book, provided AI responses, direct internet/AI access, etc.

TLDR the goal is that the students are proficient in the use of AI, but can also exist without it, and imo the only way to get there is to flip classes around and move the majority of testing to in class settings.

@sama A little nonsense unfortunately ! You can feel the weights ordering the tokens spit out … well done but there is no soul to the story and it conveys no purpose.

@lexfridman The real question to ask is why in 21st century we still need war to prevail ! Why in 21st century we need to defend the borders at all and live in the fear of some neighbor coming and taking our lands or threatening our sovereignty at all ? Is this the humain progress ?

👇My framework for what makes a great product manager. I think this works for about 70% of companies but may look a bit different depending on your industry, business model and size. Is there anything you would add or remove?

I wonder if one should not rename « Google Search » to « Google Ads Search »? How many ads you get before any results in search? #fail #google

@RogersHelps @Rogers Something bad happened in the core network. By all means and with the level of redundancy they should have it cannot be as simple as a bug or failure. It should be a security breach and they are « restoring » from backups !

@davidfowl Great movie, great actors, a little too much parody but totally makes sense in the current context of global warming.
