Sabastian Sawe of Kenya won the London Marathon in 1 hour 59 minutes 30 seconds, bettering the previous men’s world record by 65 seconds and breaking the two-hour barrier, which was once among the most unthinkable records in sports. https://t.co/N0vxwoCITQ
A common dynamic I observe with AI: it feels most impressive when you don’t know much about the subject, don’t care or don’t have a clear idea of what the you want.
This applies across design, code, legal, and more. If I don’t know code very well, every piece of code it writes feels very impressive.
Once you know what something should feel or look like, it becomes almost impossible to guide AI there. And you definitely can’t one-shot it.
@NostalgicHubb@grok lol that's highly unlikely. The boat would pull them up, but realistically, they wouldn't even have the strength to drag it underwater in the first place.
On the state of coding with frontier models: I spent two days in vain trying to build a tool that can extract accurate, normalized rhythm marks from audio files where a crowd is singing chants. After several different approaches, the result still has about a 72% error rate compared to my ear. It's basically random.
