Grok, show me the place where the least people died eating product X.


Yep with a human in the loop to process these larger sprawling plan docs (inflated with the intent of the designer iteratively)

Some get deleted from repo others archived, others merged or referenced elsewhere. It's kind of organic.


Excellent comment (seriously)


Thanks. Sometimes I feel like I'm going insane attempting to ŕeason with people who think the opposite. That these are oracles imbued with human level intellect and creativity.

Now, sure, these models can be impressive - but it's a warped lens of humanities own impressive (selected) corpuses.


My take is its less so about being physically comfortable, but there is a different type of comfort by the protection of the nest from predators. It's like being uncomfortable to have peace of bird mind, in other words.


How many from long flu to fairly compare?


It started with the flexner report (1910). I urge you to look into it if you are interested in this topic and let me know your thoughts

Yep. It was probably the singular reason (of a few) he lost 2020.


Schumpeter called it the eroding foundation of Capitalism. Its not technically Capitalism, as the system, at fault though. It's interesting. Feel free to explore it more. Or perhaps you already do


> expresses instructions

To instruct is akin to providing an input. Where do we input to? The program. The program is programmed; but most importantly, the input is not programmed in the sense the program is programmed. It is, perhaps, thoughfully designed (or not). This role is best described as Prompt Designing or Prompt Engineering, not Prompt "Programming". In any case, it is indeed very important. But in my respectful opinion, it is not programming.

It's kind of like thinking that entering a query into a search engine is programming - a host of techniques can be utilized to optimize how that input effects the output (tomes can be written on this just as they can for LLM prompt design by now).

I can kind of defend that premise but it breaks the meaning of conventional usages, and creates more confusion than it brings clarity.


Fwiw the term "prompt engineering" begins as a joke or at the very least half-serious, along the lines of "naming engineer" etc.

But it turns out that a) it's useful to know how to write prompts effectively b) it's time consuming c) it requires skill

So it became more and more an actual thing (discipline?) worth to be taken setiously
