And it's ironic since the LLM will most likely have used previous students work to train itself.

New comment by networkOne in "How many "real" high functioning autists vs. 1%ers with some attitude are there?"

High functioning autists must have other traits which blend-in into their level of autism. Take a look at Steve Jobs... clearly autistic but had a drive and charisma in order for his level of autism to be (for lack of a better word) supercharged.

Is VC the new PMF strategy?

It seems that companies use VC funds as the main advertising for their company these days. In fact, without capital raising it is hard to set yourself apart from the rest of the budding companies started in their thousands each day.

The receiving of VS funds now seems the only way one can create any virality in the marketplace. People still have a plea to the expert-from-out-of-town in that they feel... "well VCs are very experienced people who know what to look for when investing", which is counter-intuitive when faced with the realisation that VCs fund 19 losers for every 1 unicorn.

People want a company to be big before it has a marketplace-chance of being big. An press release of "ABC Co., a startup tech firm, has a $25M investment from Vulture VC Fund resulting in a $1B valuation" carries considerably more viral weight that a PR stating "ABC Co., a startup tech firm, has a business plan that can change the world".

And the VC industry is certainly promoting this line of thought... that the starting point of any future unicorn and VC funding go hand-in-hand. With the converse implications that if you have a great concept and execution path, that VC funds are a requirement.

I bet the molotov cocktail was made via instructions from ChatGPT.

This is why we built nOne, a permission/consent layer underlying the engines/platforms/algorithms/etc.

This way OpenAI can check the permissions of the author of a particular body-of-work and then respect those permissions, so that the legality of their functionality/crawling is not questioned.

New comment by networkOne in "Ask HN: What are you building that's not AI related?"

I am building nOne, the first subjective layer of the Internet, or more accurately, a permission layer underlying the engines/platforms/automation. Although it does pertain to AI, its more than that... it is a permission system for email, AI, and cognitive inputs (undisclosed automation, what you permit in your feeds, etc). It encompasses the entirety of the digital realm.

We have created a permission system within our social worlds... time to apply the same standards to the digital realm.
