       @jbaiter @simon "Excellent" in demonstrating the logical errors in that whole space, maybe:> [T]here is no part of my brain that’s ever going to remember [git reset HEAD~1].So close to understanding the problem, but hey! Let's paper laziness over with daily #LLM prompts. God forbid that daily #SpacedRepetition #Anki #flashcards or another proven learning technique would solve the problem itself. That pesky blood sugar, though! Much better to burn electrical watts.

       @jbaiter @simon > make me more ambitious with the projects that I’m willing to take on.That's literally the morale/warning one should remember from The Sorcerer's Apprentice.> [uncritically quoting Steven King:] Luddite trying to stop industrial progressThat's not what they tried: https://notesfrombelow.org/article/breaking-things-work Or ask your `llm` 🤷> […] it thinks to itself “I should look up the neighboring countries of England”, then requests a #Wikipedia search …What's so bad about searching WP yourself?

       @gittaca @jbaiter the point of that section wasn't "now the language model can search Wikipedia for me", it was to provide a simple example of how language models can be granted access to additional capabilities via tools

       @simon @jbaiter If it has to be granted access to the sites it should search, my argument remains.And if it gets a blank cheque for net access, isn't it going to query exactly those sites that are in its training set?
