Sebastian S. Cocioba @ATinyGreenCell If I ever make it, would love to just spend my time enabling others. An angel investor in people, not ideas, not ventures. People. Giving someone support and structure, a trellis to lean on, can have incalculable impact and I detest the notion that support makes people lazy. Replying to @ATinyGreenCell

Chenxin Li, PhD (@chenxinli2.bsky.social) @ChenxinLi2 A related mood is “find the answer first, worry about the specific questions later.” It might sound counter intuitive, but very productive when it comes to genomics research. Replying to @ChenxinLi2Yes, it is called “cherry picking”. In new fields there is lots of low hanging fruit. Groups find things that

You are not wrong, but all human skills can be replaced, with enough time and effort. And true AIs can work 24/7, never forget, communicate globally and optimize continuously. And many jobs now for humans only require humans because slow procedures are allowed. AI-AI lossless communication and perfect memories will put many humans out of

I am reading https://www.nist.gov/srd/nist-standard-reference-database-71 and downloaded the program.

This looks like it was produced in 2010 or so and the security and sharing policies have changed a lot in the last two years, let alone

You asked a question about a subject that has a large number of fairly consistent copies on the Internet. I know much of the Internet and STEMC. So it is easy to predict where the LLMs fail. OpenAI, Gemini, Grok and CoPilot all fail on harder problems and OpenAI and CoPilot always fail when asked

When will humans seriously tackle global issues and opportunities? — Games and GPTs are fine, but we need verifiable tools to help analyze and restructure UN.org and its associated sites, and all its references on the Internet. UN.org is only 6 Million entry pages, and (“united nations”) about 820 Million entry points. Not an impossible
