The quirks of individual managers don't matter in this context.

In the local app interface the winning choice is “efficient” and then turn off the sliders for warmth enthusiasm emoji etc.

It makes openai models so good to talk to i really have trouble switching.

I fully agree with the author's point that it's an incoherent interface for a tool. But more than that, it's a constant irritating reminder to me that these LLMs aren't actually thinking or synthesizing new ideas. The LLM is fundamentally not a person, and does not have a human's context, so representing itself with human pronouns and speech patterns is fundamentally contradictory and inaccurate. Author gets into that with the apologies, but once you start noticing it, it's everywhere.

If these programs were actually capable of thinking, and committed to veractiy, they would represent themselves in a new way, and it would be insightful and interesting. We the users wouldn't have comfortable and misleading language masking the 'alien intelligence' and it would be a weird adjustment, but we would be adjusting instead of pretending.

No one is going to argue with “psychologically addictive”

Years of his life and 5-10% of his net worth. That’s the kind of thing people notice.

I've been using the new siri, and it seems more or less stuck in instant-answer mode, which gives really terrible answers with any provider.

I wish more people were talking about this, but if you can't crank up the models to extended thinking, the technology is more or less stuck at 2004 levels of usefulness.

Those characteristics, like safe discharge rate, capacity, projected cycle count, are all things that manufactures exaggerate or get wrong.

I don’t think there’s any way that consumers can ever be informed enough to have an efficient market in products such as those

There's not really a plausible answer to that question, because the login keychain data is almost entirely specific to that host.

To iron-man your argument: Apps that store account credentials to third party services will need to be signed in again.

If you were using http basic auth for a website and saving that, then it was probably in there.

Private keys and certificates you manually imported, or that were created by an application for your host. This is the closest to a plausible answer, imo.
