Casted a spell so only cool people see this profile. Did it work?
I post about AI, evals, hackathon projects, vibe coding and things that make me laugh.
@contraben It’s because we look at AI the wrong way.
Novel prompts = novel outputs.
Judging models based on “Generate an award-level landing page for XYZ” level prompts is like asking the genie “give me more money” and then complaining you didn’t get enough.
UI Writing is a skill.
@erinnhorner@contra@contralabs It's only been a short time since I discovered Contra, but the community and the sense of belonging the team creates for its users are what kept me hooked. And I think that's one of the biggest successes of your work as VP of Brand.
Wishing you the very best, Erin!
Since we launched MagicPath in ChatGPT, we have been adding 1 million designs a week to the platform. For context, it took us one year to get to 3 million.
I hate the direction AI is heading in.
It feels like a constant fight for incremental progress. Forget the benchmarks for a second. When was the last time something genuinely exciting came out?
Agents were the last real innovation that made me think, "this changes everything"
WOW
LLMs trained on simulated faulty hardware can get more resilient to bit flips as they scale. They effectively learn error-correcting codes whose overhead stays finite.
If this holds, we could run inference on far cheaper, and on lower-energy without the usual accuracy crash.
@gregisenberg The funny thing is that almost all these advancements are happening within the same industry, with competitors constantly launching new features just to match/outmatch each other.
