@kneath I mean - the ethical is up for debate considering the data-in it harvested. And who gets the money. (Eco side is up for debate obviously - I've seen arguments on both sides for that.)

But I 100% totally understand where you come from in general. Genuinely.

@kneath
Like your example. It looks good. I'm sure there are no errors. But a lot of it's errors aren't obvious, and it can miss things.

I'm not trying to say they're not useful. I've used them on and off for years. I just think people naturally over-assign intelligence because of the wow-factor.

Again, I'm open to being wrong on this one.

@kneath I feel other languages having gotchas and LLMs **sounding** like they know intent, isn't the same thing though.

LLMs can be pretty impressive. But understanding what it's asking you, and giving you tailored responses is it's main job.

But anyone who's used it has also spent 6 hours going in circles because it's no where near any form of AGI.

I understand the dislike for the specific question, but it does show the fundemental issue. I'm sure there are other examples out there.

@kneath When it's going to understand intent is an interesting question. Considering the scaling is starting to plateau, and the data is drying up.) It's anyone's guess. We'll see.

Also - miss you!

@kneath Absolutely fair. And totally; context.

But that's why weather reports are usually a few lines per time unit. The key facts. Rather than blog post size each.

As you said, right now until it doesn't understand intent. (Think the old "Should I walk to the carwash" question.) So in today's age - I really do feel it.

Maybe I'm in the wrong, but part of me feels like - if it's not interesting enough for the person to write it themselves, it's probably not interesting enough to be read.

Also the AI doesn't understand intentions.

Blog posts with spelling and grammar errors are way better than lukewarm AI voice.

@sarah11918 Excited to see what you end up doing next! I was always impressed what I saw coming out of the Astro docs.

Great video. Watch it!

What a fantastic, clear rationale behind the design and development of Current, a new RSS reader.

I've used Reeder since it launched in 2009 (17 years ago!) but I'm going to give Current a try and see if it can challenge my approach to RSS feeds.

Current

An RSS reader that doesn't count. What happens when you stop treating your feeds like an inbox and start treating them like a river.
