Are you sure about this?

LLMs are like a topographic map of language.

If you have 2 known mountains (domains of knowledge) you can likely predict there is a valley between them, even if you haven’t been there.

I think LLMs can approximate language topography based on known surrounding features so to speak, and that can produce novel information that would be similar to insight or innovation.

I’ve seen this in our lab, or at least, I think I have.

Curious how you see it.

Appreciate the follow up and retraction. Thanks!

Our lab has been experimenting with “meta skills” that allow creation of skills to use later after a particular workflow.

Seems some say even the named may be fabricated:

>> Sources within the Israeli intelligence community cited in the report raised concerns about how deaths were categorized, with one source claiming people were sometimes "promoted to the rank of terrorist after their death" in the database. <<

Thank you for that correction.

The IDF did not dispute this, so unclear why you are.

What? It's possible I had a previous typo, but please show me where I said that.

>> The Israeli military did not dispute the existence of the database or dispute the data on Hamas and PIJ deaths when approached for comment... <<

Too cheap to even submit it as a link we can click!

Yuge.

I'm not claiming absolute knowledge of numbers, just going off the public reports which are all we can go on.

The report is 4,000 civilians injured (which means they just didn't die -- people lost fingers, limbs, eyes, etc.)

Presumably if you have thousands of Hezbola people walking around within their homes, businesses, hopistals, shops, etc. it makes sense you'd have many civilian injuries when these went off. There wasn't a geo fence around them and if someone was in an NICU or preschool the explosions were indiscriminate.

So while there was some element of precision in placement of who had these pagers, there was zero awareness (by design) to where they actually were when they all exploded.

I didn't say 42 targets.

Per the report: 42 dead, 12 of which were civilians. It follows that 30 were considered Hezbollah.

The IDF is only able to kill 17 people they classify as "Hamas" for every 100 people they kill in Gaza (per their own internal reports). They have a self assessed 83% civilian kill rate.

Incorrect. The reports are 42 total killed, 12 civilians including 2 children.

"Operation Grim Beeper" (seriously) on Wikipedia cites these numbers from Lebanese government.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2024_Lebanon_electronic_device...

For the IDF, a 28.6% civilian death rate is actually quite good. Their own classified data reveals an 83% civilian casualty rate in Gaza—nearly three times worse.

The Lebanon pager attack: 12 civilians (including 2 children) killed out of 42 total deaths (28.6% civilian casualty rate).

Gaza genocide: Leaked IDF intelligence documents show 8,900 militants killed out of 53,000 total deaths as of May 2025 (83% civilian casualty rate).

This is similar to my Starlink at home with 5-10x download speed vs upload.

UPDATE: I’m not as 1334 as I thought… flight attendant said they are rolling out Starlink on all flights and it’s free for now.

Sonnet 4.5 did this easily https://claude.ai/public/artifacts/c1bb5d57-573b-49e0-9539-7...

I would really like Claude in there.

I did a project where I had them write poems and draw pictures about and of robots.

I got about 100 of each.

This is horrible but I feel like the "visible" from space headline is becoming increasingly less impressive as satellite imagery becomes more impressive.

You could say, I drink so much coffee it's visible from space and it's literally just a coffee mug sitting on a park bench.

Can we get it in Sheets?

Nice! I bought a lifetime license to brain.fm when they first came out for $75, but I’d Recommend this to others.

Also is it open source? Would be fun to look under the hood.

Hopefully the mint will offer free shipping via USPS again, and still accept credit cards over the web.

It reminds me of the scene from the movie where he’s taking LSD in the field.

Exactly.

Any plans to add bineural beats like brain.fm?

Trump University was a hit right?
