<p>My guess would be that this is a matter of fine-tuning the model to the problem. You would need to run the review experiment N times, observe the distribution of answers, and then fine tune with model operational parameters.<p>Perhaps someone more knowledgable could jump in here to clarify?</p>

<p>Very nice implemenation re usability. I have seen this before, somewhere, years ago - perhaps even on HN.<p>Such a solution applies for text only instances. How would you solve it when graphs come into play? Display a graph next to it and pause the text?</p>

<p>Depends. Oral examninations will be more important as a test of skill now.<p>During my university time, all main exams were oral examinations: One professor, one protocol keeper, and the student. Duration: 1-2 hours.</p>

<p>I looked into hackable printers 10+ years ago when building a demonstrator prototype of a bioproduced ink dye. The key challenge challenges is that they are an integrated system between mechanical, electronical, and chemical (ink formulation, surface chemistry) domains.<p>I would believe most relevant patents are now expired and that we should be able to build a printer that at least gives sufficient quality prints. Given sufficient motivation and time investment, that is.</p>

<p>Hmm. I am not so sure about that statement. There are many models at play in the market, not one model. What mechanistic patterns are driving those models that are falsified by this paper and lead to the outcome of increasingly extractive/stagnating economies?</p>

<p>My understanding is that in addition to your comment and the development of a method to separate the training data for distributed learning, the latency/bandwidth of systems connected on the internet is a challenge, too. Information has to be sent around before and after any hypothetical number crunching.</p>

<p>Thank you for your comment. I enjoyed it a lot. Good food for thought.<p>Your analogon is a bit leaky abstraction in the sense that it misses out on the broad stastical nature of LLMs. However, I find it is a good way to illustrate the potential industrial transformation.<p>It is hard to say what the future will bring. The original AsK HN post is definitly an omen for things to come.</p>
