Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

LLMs can’t reason — they just crib reasoning-like steps from their training data (pivot-to-ai.com)

How nice it must be to never ponder how large humanity is, and how each and every person you see outside has a full and rich interior and exterior world, and you that only see a tiny fraction of the people outside.

I don't think that's nice. That sounds extremely bleak and depressive, not to mention downright sociopathic.

I wouldn't swap it for the world ^^, but maybe a tad fewer existantial crises would be nice (no monkey-paw curls plz)

To respond to this part:

How about people here? When did you realize people are real?

I just have this basic human feeling of appreciation whenever someone close goes out of their way to do something nice for me. It's always this reminder of hey, I exist in other peoples' lives as well, isn't that cool!
