I'm on the latest episode of the Rooftop Ruby podcast with @collin and @joeldrapper talking about Large Language Models

It was a really excellent conversation - we covered a huge amount of ground

I'm trying something new: I put together my own transcript with Whisper, then cleaned that up and added inline links and section headings. Here's the result, complete with an embedded audio player that can jump to each different section: https://simonwillison.net/2023/Sep/29/llms-podcast/

Talking Large Language Models with Rooftop Ruby

I’m on the latest episode of the Rooftop Ruby podcast with Collin Donnell and Joel Drapper, talking all things LLM. Here’s a full transcript of the episode, which I generated …

@collin @joeldrapper I used GPT-4 to help build my own custom audio player, with a 3x speed button!

@simon You don't say "please"? 😱

@tomayac I've tried to argue in the past that it's immoral to say "please" or "thank you" to a chatbot because it's anthropomorphizing them in a dangerous way

The counter-argument to that (which I quite like) is that it's good to use them to practice being polite for when you're talking to actual humans

@simon I was joking of course, but to your point, Google Home devices, at least for a while, would positively note it to kids when they asked nicely. (I still always say “please” to machines. You never know. M3gan and friends are just around the corner.)
