A significant portion of what made Python so popular was its stability. For a decade, for most people, Python 2.7 was Python.
Python 3 is imbued with a level of "live at head" zeitgeist that is neither of complete nor limited-but-manageable.

Be realistic about this. Trump was a known quantity since the 70s. MAGA's outrage isn't what Trump might have done or even did, or that he is breaking a self-prioritized promise. That's just him.
MAGA's anger is his failure to cover it up so they can bask in stories of liberal tears.

The "evidence" that LLMs can think is that we can see patterns in how they behave that are analogous to how brains work, esp human brains.
This fundamentally lacks substance, context, or scale, or understanding.
This is not inherently unique to LLMs, it's an aspect of the software they use.

If you ask an LLM a question about itself, the answer depends on the documentation the model was trained on. Documentation that was written before the AI was trained.

@anthropic.com's MCP design feels way too much like someone who worked with LLMs trusted an LLM to design it and didn't bother to ask at least two models "is any of this true"?
For instance, the way references work is demonstrably harmful to inference quality for any kind of significant work; it's

Watching Claude, GPT, or Perplexity write Python code is ... something.
It's like we trained it on people with bad code asking for help, and people responding with equally bad code before finally being corrected.
So that's what they do.

Feels when: Last time you tried a tool, took over 30 minutes to install/setup, you asked if they'd heard of conda, reply was ..!..
8 months later you go to try it again, it checks for conda and 2 minutes later is running.
And *your* github question/issue is the one marked "completed"

Is it just me or do #AI companies deliberately name their models in a non-linear fashion (r1, v2, r3, o1) to maximize the chances that you'll spend money on old versions because they *sound* newer?
