The culture surrounding it is all very cynical about women. It's also dripping with self hatred.

sure but i don't think its so bad that the government should refuse to use their slang.

they also promote agency and self improvement as a community.


They probably won't because they don't want a nationwide precedent if it's upheld by SCOTUS.

Say what you will about the ethics of sexual depictions of fictional minors, the legality in the US isn't clear cut.

AI is an overloaded term, so I'm not sure whether insurers are using LLMs or more traditional ML, but they are already using "AI" to deny claims.

An argument for a robust social safety net for when a diagnosis threatens your career in a safety-critical field.

I understand the concern about anxiety about their impending condition, but medical providers must not paternalistically decide to withhold a diagnosis from patients, at least not in all cases.

If I got an early diagnosis, it would motivate me to get my affairs in order to lessen the burden on my family and check off some bucket list items before it's too late. Don't rob me of that opportunity.

Before ordering the test, ask patients "If you were going to get Alzheimer's, would you want to know?"


Honest question: Is there a way to get an LLM to stop emitting deprecated code?

Theoretically, if you could train your own, and remove all references to the deprecated code in the training data, it wouldn't be able to emit deprecated code. Realistically that ability is out of reach at the hobbiest level so it will have to remain theoretical for at least a few more iterations of Moore's law.

The lack of a clear definition is the core of why this advice is unworkable, will never see wide adoption, and will be abandoned sooner or later.

The fact that enriched white pasta isn't included on the ultra-processed list shows that they're using some criteria outside of how processed the food is to make the list.


The pejorative sense of DEI has probably poisoned the training data. You might be able to prompt around it, but the existing prompt is pretty lazy.

the dataset is poisoned with a definition you disagree with

Agreement or disagreement are irrelevant if you're asking the LLM for something more precise than generalized racial grievance labeled by the public as DEI.

Newsflash: the definition is amorphous to justify whatever people want.
