Is that Oracle's Larry Ellison on the right?

Low to average reliability is fine if the service is cheap, and if that avoid the need for backup diesel generators in datacenters.

I doubt this applied to Github:

Microsoft to use diesel-fired generators as backup power for data centers

Starting a war likely on false pretense, without consulting NATO allies. Then blaming NATO allies for not taking part in that mess. Then claiming the oil crisis that results from his war is not his problem.

I'm on the fence on whether to put Trump in the chaotic evil or chaotic neutral category.

They could also develop an antimatter slingshot.

That's a good way to represent LLMs. Very bad and very prolific consultants.

It shows LLMs can do significant harm without the capabilities of an AGI.

Overhyping LLMs and overinflating their capabilities makes things worse, as people are less skeptical of LLM output.

According to Clayton, the AI agent involved didn’t take any technical action itself, beyond posting inaccurate technical advice, something a human could have also done.

Producing innaccurate technical advice, with a confident tone, at scale.

If that LLM were an employee it would get a formal blame, and then demoted or fired as it continues.

Averages are affected a lot by outliers with very large values, and the effect is larger when there's large inequalities. If measuring by income or wealth (higher is better) in a stadium with 1 billionaire and 999 homeless people, the average people is millionnaire.

This study still uses averages and flips the effect with a povery score (higher is worse). It gives more weight to the other end of a spectrum, very poor persons that need 300min to win 1$ makes the average much higher.

Using median values, or better 20-80 centiles values would be more meaningful.

This undermine trust in the health care system. Some may be more reluctant to go to the hospital.
