<p>You need to fake users to get the network effects to start.<p>Use a LLM to generate comments maybe finetuned on HN<p>When real people start showing up they will see comments and assume its not a wasteland. As real people come reduce the bot comments.</p>

<p>My new TV wouldn't work unless I agreed to it recoding and uploading those recordings to it's servers which may be temporary stored while they are transcribing the audio to text for more permanent storage.<p>My TV is forcing me into a employment agreement where I generated data to train their models or otherwise 'improve service'.<p>Data is so valuable companies are risking a huge PR backlash. Data collection is the business model and I assume the same ethos will make its away into open source.</p>

<p>I believe 2021 was the tipping point where most text content is now AI generated, so to avoid training your LLM with other LLM output they restrict the date to 2021.</p>

<p>This is a very old project glad to see it get the credit it needs.<p>One interesting thing is if you show someone this for a random sentence and ask them want do they think. They always say how did it copy my writing. Everyone thinks it looks like their own writing. Likely because its the average of all peoples writing. Try it out</p>

<p>Something interesting that will come from these LLM is university is all about writing papers, you get your degree by writing papers.<p>Now you can argue each year the value of a university degree will drop because more and more people will get LLM to write their papers for them.<p>The whole higher education model may need to change, its a similar paradigm shift as the invention of the graphs calculator.</p>

<p>Another reason these diagrams should be expressed in some sort of code is LLM currently are not well versed in architecture because its missing from the training set.</p>

<p>Its a technically because that is not what brought him to public attention, he made himself a target so they went looking into his life for something to charge him with.<p>If you look hard enough through anyone's phone and online history you will find something to put them away for - no exception.<p>I say he should not belong on the list because his company was not scam company its still alive to this day - the ethics aside of hiking drug prices.</p>

<p>I don't watch TV so I didn't know about these products.<p>I ordered a incredible beef pizza thinking it was extra topping or something.<p>Half way through I happened to eat one of the 'beef' bits by itself and realised it tasted terrible and possibly expired.<p>I googled it and turned out they sold me a fake meat while advertising it as "<product_name> beef". Which I felt should be false advertising.<p>The funny thing is I really enjoy falafels and the English brand of vege mushroom paddies. But this fake meat is soulless.</p>

<p>I think its important to note that animals don't get fed human quality vegetables.<p>They get the cheapest possible bits that can't be sold for more to humans but are still enjoyed by animals.<p>Animals tend to eat human waste products which is a form of recycling, turning essentially rubbish into bioavailable protein</p>
