Everything I learn about attempts to use LLMs for physics makes me want to scream at whoever thinks this is a good idea
The machine can't THINK! It can predict what a typical chain of reasoning corresponding to a given physics problem MIGHT look like!

The great enemy of clear language is insincerity. In our age there is no such thing as ‘keeping out of politics’. All issues are political issues, and politics itself is a mass of lies, evasions, folly, hatred and schizophrenia.

When I was 11, my GT teacher taught us about the stock market by having us “invest” fake money and following the stocks in the paper. It was nearly Xmas so I chose airlines and toy stores. I lost money. That’s how I learned the important lesson: it’s all made up.

Just incredible. Hassett never said the 90-day pause thing. The upward move in the market this morning appears to have been entirely driven by fake news started on Twitter/X
Apparently the Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett said Trump will consider a 90 day pause on the tariff policy excepting China, per CNBC, but no one is sure where that was first reported.
