Lesson 4: Computers You Can Talk To This lesson explores perhaps the most useful, most powerful facet of LLMs: the way that they allow humans to interact with computers in natural language.

We've added video sections to Lessons 4 and 5 of "Modern Day Oracles or Bullshit Machines", our free online course about how to live and thrive in a ChatGPT world.

In the Lesson 4 video, we discuss whether LLMs might be even bigger than the GUI revolution ushered into homes everywhere by Apple.

It was really great. I hope you get to see them next time! They said they’d be back in a few years after they make another record.

Also, if you are seeing @deathcabforcutie.bsky.social Plans 20th anniversary shows, seriously bring tissues. Those songs hit hard.

Seriously more bands should play here. We had lightening, sunset, moonrise, excellent music and sound quality- perfection.

Carl Sagan explains how the ancient Greeks knew the Earth was round and calculated its circumference over 2,000 years ago.

A nectarine tree is on my wish list for the garden. LOVE nectarines and they are so briefly available and so rare to get a really good one! Agree 100%

Why aren’t more (or any) things nectarine flavored?

(Question brought to you by the perfect nectarine I just ate)

Rain?!?

Crow story!

Have you heard about the Roadless Rule? It's a policy to protect forestland across the country that Trump is repealing.

A legislative fix will take time—the best way to fix this is to speak up now. Help get the word out.

We need to pressure Republicans to reverse course.

Peter Gabriel and Kate Bush "Don't Give Up" came on this morning- and man that song hits different with the current trajectory of my country.

Pee Wee as Himself is a delight. Also explains some child hood formation. Between Pee Wee Herman and Cyndi Lauper - the 80’s were a good time to seek individuality.

Spokane activists were arrested by federal agents in connection to ICE protests on June 11, including Justice Forral, Erin Lang and former city council president Ben Stuckart, who were previously arrested on June 11. Organizer Jac Archer, who was not arrested June 11, was also arrested this morning.

I just learned that several community leaders were detained this morning by federal agents apparently for their roles in the June 11 demonstration at the ICE facility.

I’m outraged.

Ugh so sorry! I'm not baking as much as I used to- you motivated me to feed!

100% accurate - watched it at school and it looked just like that. Our principal was running around telling everyone to turn tvs on and pushing carts!

I'm not going to repost any of the insane antisemitic conspiracy bullshit that grok is spewing today, but it highlights how absolutely essentially is that we not let LLMs become a form of epistemic grounding for our society.

Many areas of the west are without news outlets. The Coeur d’Alene/Spokane area is not one of them. Follow stellar reporting by local people, I’m begging of you.

I don't think the average American understands how many folks pay for nursing home care through Medicaid. It's not just poor people. This is oversimplifying but, the way our system is set up is that you sell everything you own to pay for it, then you apply for medicaid to pay for the rest.
