Because it’s cheaper to pay for the tokens than to pay their engineers to worry about a worse, homebrewed setup.

Are you American? I used my American drivers license for verifying a personal account and it was approved with no problem. I wonder how they decide.

To say that students don’t benefit from getting good grades using LLMs is incredibly naive. Learning is only about the third or fourth most important “benefit” for students, after getting a degree, getting good grades, and making connections.

These matter about getting the first job you get, at which point what you learned begins to dominate the rest of your career and life. The connections you made at school matter less and less as your connections in your career dominate, and they are built on what you can do, which is based on what you’ve learned.

Does anyone look at GPA on a resume? I’ve hired thousands of people I’ve never once looked at GPA. (N.b., my resume has “summa cum laude” ok it and no one has ever once mentioned it or presumably noticed it, despite the fact you only really get it if you can BOTH learn the material AND get perfect grades)

The only pseudo-intellectualism I see is from you. You’re missing the whole point.

It’s just a matter of perspective. Procedures and memory are the same, and they’re also different, depending on how you want to look at it.

Prayer does work, through the mechanism of putting your thoughts in perspective and context and sharing them outside yourself. Whether or not people understand the reason “why” it works doesn’t matter.

I’ve noticed this too. Any idea why modern language books get this so wrong?

It’s always funny to me to see people in tech, who have largely been employed to put other people out of work for the last 50 years, change their stance on tech as soon as it starts to affect them.

Code has always been a bottleneck for any product which involves software.

What bizarre advice. It completely misses the point.
