I love AI, it’s pure LLMs I hate. Pure LLMs *are* basically just autocomplete. Recent progress (e.g. Claude Code) doesn’t show otherwise Rather, lot of the progress in the last two years has come from

just as i feared AI can be a powerful tool for opening people up to new perspectives, yet we find that people actually prefer to use “sycophantic” AI systems that reinforce their pre-existing beliefs.

Note that as of last summer Waymo said that LLMs/VLMs were experimental, and that their foundation model then could “process only a small amount of image frames, does not incorporate accurate 3D sensi

The pure LLM debate - which I had for many years, here and elsewhere - is indeed no longer relevant. Why? Because I won; nobody uses pure LLMs anymore. Nowadays all deployed objects are neurosymbolic,

symbolic tools like those listed below - rather than pure scaling -are likely driving most of the advances now. once you realize that you realize that hyperscaling is probably insane. @GaryMarcus IMHO

the whole point of databases is to keep reliable records of values that change over time. in general, they can be trusted to be stable over time. the whole point of LLMs is to raise money. in general
