@BreatheLesss @burkov It sort of is? He's saying it only generates information it was trained on, but it often outputs information that was not in its training set

@paulg No but removing them without explanation in the midst of a vibe shift suggests these "values" of theirs were fair-weather virtue signaling all along They don't have to swap "we love diversity" for "we love Trump" for us to know that

@visakanv Famously a product like Dropbox was criticized on Hacker News because it was trivial to set up the same thing on your own. But even small amounts of friction will stop most people from context switching to build more when they could be chilling.

@SteelToedSocks @brianrtw @mattyglesias @ArmandDoma No I think that's understood. My point is that they move faster, not bc they have more pencil pushers, but bc they truly dgaf

@JeremieBrulhart @Panopticon_KAS @mattyglesias @ArmandDoma I think my point is narrower than that

@Panopticon_KAS @mattyglesias @ArmandDoma Apparently reliable enough for Western drug companies to do business with them
