Quote tweeting this thread by Andrew for more visibility. Quoting @Drewch I'm realizing from the flywheel thread from @tobi that many people don't realize that small models can actually outperform larger models on a specific task - @MParakhin has been saying this for quite some time. 🧵 Related

Frum is illiterate. This quote does not blame America for 9/11 but blames America for the disastrous wars that people like David Frum--W. Bush's speechwriter--led us into Quoting @davidfrum In a now deleted tweet on the 20th anniversary of 9/11, Abdul el-Sayed expressed the same the blame-America view voiced also by Hasan Piker. Putting a bag over Piker's big mouth may temporarily quiet the candidate's problem, but won't change it. America Related

I was reading a book review, saw a surprising quote from the book, and asked ChatGPT a follow-up question about it. And after answering, ChatGPT correctly guessed which review I was reading and warned me that it thought the author had a habit of selective quotations. OpenAI Related

I've been checking the source of quotes for my forthcoming book, and the performance of Gemini is extraordinary. I paste the quote into Google, and Gemini will barge in with the wrong answer over and over again. It's not an occasional thing - it's reliably wrong. Very odd. Quoting @TimHarford Twice in past week I've pasted quote into Google to check the source, and Gemini has barged in with the wrong answer. CS Lewis quote from The Seeing Eye (1967) was placed in The Screwtape Letters (1942). Alfred Loftus quote (1857) attributed to Austen Layard (1849). Gemini 0/2. Google Related

Bootstrapper and investor. Founder of TinySeed and MicroConf, host of the Startups for the Rest of Us podcast, and author of several books on self-funded software startups.
I just interviewed Steve Blank for @startupspod. We focused on how AI is causing founders to build more while learning less. One line that stuck with me about founders building too much, too quickly due to vibe coding: “Polished deliverables hid shallow assumptions.” You can't just build because it's fast and easy. You need to be learning and checking your assumptions before (and while) building. His famous quote, “There are no facts inside the building,” is as true today as ever. This episode will be out in a couple weeks. startups Related

Their words
There's this very good quote from Sam Altman who... He can be a hyperbeast sometimes, but one of the things he said, and I think I agree, is that superhuman persuasion will happen before superhuman intelligence, right? And if that's the case, then these things before we get this AGI ASI stuff, we can embed superhuman persuasion towards our ideal or whatever the ideal of the model maker is, right?

A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one
sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at
korrents.com .
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said.
The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in
korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who
else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public
statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.

About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they
do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in
this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the
serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to
quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter,
especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked
article and a belief on korrents.com
are left in their original language.
