Certainly, he's just one good idea away from being one himself!

I think the human in the loop currently needs to know what the LLM produced or checked, but they'll get better.

To be fair, GHz did go up. Granted, it's not why modern processors are faster and more efficient.

Why so many sig figs for 5 and 1.3 though?

I think the kid is a victim of poor parenting and should be given a bit of slack, but the parents should have been hanged, in my opinion.

Apparently there's a conservative Lemmy community? Anyways, here's some great face eating from one of their articles they posted. (lemmy.world)

Text from article:

David Rice, a disabled Army paratrooper who has been on probation since joining the U.S. Department of Energy in September, also learned Thursday night that he had lost his job.

Rice, who has been working as a foreign affairs specialist on health matters relating to radiation exposure, said he’d been led to believe that his job would likely be safe. But on Thursday night, when he logged into his computer for a meeting with Japanese representatives, he saw an email saying he’d been fired.

“It’s just been chaos,” said Rice, 50, who had just bought a house in Melbourne, Florida, after he got the job.

Rice said he agrees with the Trump administration’s goal of making the government more efficient, but objects to the random, scattershot approach being taken.

Alt Text: A screenshot of two posts on Lemmy in continuous scroll mode. Top post is a quote from George Carlin saying, "Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large numbers." The post immediately after is a group photo of Moms For Liberty, a radically stupid and racist group of KKKarens smiling with dead eyes.
