Really enjoyed the format, looking forward to the extension of this in the next video!
Really appreciated the deeper dive and calm narrative along with the evolving code and demonstration. I feel like so many videos go into what without touching enough on why, so that was really good.
That seems an awesome concept! I’ll queue the video up!
Mild uh-oh from me, though I had a great time in Origins and everything has been less good since then…

I think that this is the logical place to put those opinions - it would make less sense unlinked to the post.
I dislike that it’s been shotgunned at nearly every post I see, regardless of how relevant it might be, and I don’t trust the output to represent the link.
Given there’s no “bad bot” style feedback functionality (that I know of), what else is there to do than block it?
I dunno, it seems easy enough to say “we’ve got rid of cAIo Colin v1.0 for his clearly insane ideas last year, we’re looking forward to bowing to the whims of Colin v1.3, who I hear has some excellent new data sets from last year!”
Or a different product, or whatever. Ew, in any case.
Is that shittywatercolour? Didn’t realise he was still posting!
That’s just not how LLMs work, bud. It doesn’t have understanding to improve, it just munges the most likely word next in line. It, as a technology, won’t advance past that level of accuracy until it’s a completely different approach.
Love that quote - will say that, to my eyes, what’s happening here is worse than results being wrong and the summary passing that on - in at least a few examples I’ve seen, the summary has contained information that is related to but the opposite of what was requested, e.g. a list titled “things you should do if bitten by a snake” that contains a list of things you should not do.
Or in the example of pizza glue, that being a great tip… If you want to do product photography of pizza.
Though this seems like a reasonably healthy take, it’s another thing that makes me think I don’t need to wonder about going back for The Final Shape.
When the founders all left, and/or Eurogamer acquired it (related) and started pushing the same videos/rubbish guides designed for SEO optimization rather than interesting articles written with passion.
To me, the difference there is that the jokes about snake oil and homeopathy, healing crystals, or essential oils are roughly the same - e.g. “what do you call X that works and has been peer reviewed? Medicine.”
So far, there has been no equivalent positive usage in the crypto sphere. Medicine, though often administered to different levels, is a good idea in itself.
Actually, for most uses of crypto it’s attempting to muddle in and “add” value to a previous known-good thing. Is the comparison here that crypto is snake oil currency, snake oil databases, or snake oil contracts? In every case, to me, crypto is the snake oil salesman trying to sell you the brighter tomorrow - without adding anything positive, and often getting the heck out of dodge (or folding a company and moving on to, e.g. LLMs) before delivering on promises.
I enjoyed this write-up.
Out of interest, have you seen the recent headlines around Windows 11 stopping working on unsupported hardware that it had been installed on anyway?
Or, to use your example, reviews that don’t understand the product or play it for laughs. 😅
Well, okay - here’s my reasoning:
I have a PC and a PS5.
If the game is on PC, I would prefer to play it there. It is a competitor, in my household (I’d argue elsewhere, too, but I guess that’s an opinion). It is a very useful distinction for me.
There are few games I can only get on my PS5, but that low number does sometimes make me ask why I have a PS5. It is useful to distinguish between the games I can only play on PS5, and those I could instead play on PC, for that reason.
I hugely prefer this world in which Sony releases for my preferred platform, but that doesn’t mean it’s sensible to say that PC isn’t a competitor to consoles and bury your head in the sand because it “devalue[s] pro-consumer behaviour”.
The “I” in “LLM” stands for intelligence.
Hold up. Digital zoom is, in all the cases I’m currently aware of, just cropping the available data. That’s not reconstruction, it’s just losing data.
Otherwise, yep, I’m with you there.
I don’t think loss is what people are worried about, really - more injecting details that fit the training data but don’t exist in the source.
Given the hoopla Hollywood and directors made about frame-interpolation, do you think generated frames will be any better/more popular?
Sounds good to me!
I wish Samsung would do the same. They just pushed a “security update” that has also added “AI” to a half dozen baked in apps. It’s not clear how to disable it (but now I’m home again, I guess I’ll look into it).
