If I had an extra 300 tb I’d do it.

You could cut off your search around the time AI tracks started to appear. Not sure when that was, maybe 2023. You’d miss a lot of recent stuff, but you’d filter out a lot of spam too

The right to silence was born out of the religious persecution that was rife in Europe in the 16th and 17th century, where coerce confessions and forcing people to incriminate themselves, even if it was bullshit, was commonplace

I think that’s what he was talking about. His argument is that the Founders did things that could incriminate themselves to their old government, and there were no protections in place to shield them from, for instance, self incrimination.

I’m not sure how much I agree with that, but it was definitely an interesting take.

Some things are just super obvious that even if we can, we should not

I use it for coding advice sometimes, as an amateur hobbyist it’s really useful to point me in the right direction when facing problems I’m unfamiliar with. I often end up reinventing the proverbial wheel, just worse, but LLMs can help point out standards and best practices that I, as an outsider to the industry, am unaware of.

Movie recommendations is my biggest thing, personally.

And lots of other purposes. Just because a ton of people are misusing this tool and treating it like GAI doesn’t mean that it isn’t a useful tool. Even something as simple as proofreading a letter has massive utility for some people.

Lets use LLMs for things LLMs are useful for. It is not a panacea, and it is not appropriate for every use case

Companies tend to be rather picky about who gets to poke around inside their products Once I buy it, it’s my product.
