With all due respect, but if humans can figure out how new unseen programs work by using -h and seeing what options exist and what they do, I am sure robots can figure it out too, or else they weren’t that intelligent to begin with.

It happened to me earlier today too. The response the machine gave me was completely different, as if it was a different codebase and a completely different task. It also had a few paths to some files and the username used for the `$HOME` directory was not mine. Local mode, not cloud or anything like that, and Auto mode.
Couple of "what the heck are you talking about"s, but because the attitude continued, I switched to Sonnet 4.5 and tried again, and this fixed the issue for me. I forgot to document it, and when I tried to export the original conversation for analysis it was gone.
But yeah, very confusing.
The Slopware paradox: I don't know if the error message is the actual website and this is just post-AI nihilism, or if it's a configuration error because if your website is not even a serverless edge function then `bro do you even scale`.

AIstor. They just slap the word AI anywhere these days.

Just give me the prompt, I'll seek the information by myself.

The need to hate on Grokipedia is weird to me. It’s another site on the web. It’s an experiment with LLMs. Who cares?
It can be filled with a bunch of nonsense, whatever. The internet is like that. Maybe it’ll actually become something useful. Or it’ll inspire something useful.
Regardless, there’s no such thing as bad publicity, so these articles just give the project airtime. Even commenters here mention they haven’t heard of it until now.
> The need to hate on Grokipedia is weird to me. It’s another site on the web.
Now let's replace in this sentence the word Grokipedia with Wikipedia and ask the same question to Musk and to his followers: The need to hate on Wikipedia is weird to me. It's another site on the web.

danirod commented on Jacqueline – A minimal i386 kernel written in Pascal (2019) github.com/danirod/jacque... · Posted by u/peter_d_sherman
Hi, author of Jacqueline here. I read HN almost daily so it caught me off guard to see my stuff here.
It's been a long time since I did this (2019). It was a prototype just to see if a standard PC boot loader could hand-off into something that's not C (or Rust). And yes you can, as long as the programming language has a way to control how symbol names are exported, and then to link the object code with the rest of the boot loader.
You won't have a runtime unless you implement one, so for most languages there is no stdlib, no exception handling, no garbage collector... But it is fun anyway. As I said, this was a prototype and once it could say Hello World I considered it complete.
Happy to see it here though, and I'll be happy to answer any questions about what I remember, or what is like to write code in Pascal, or OS development or i386 in general.
The same happens with whisper-large-v3 on Chinese transcription: silence is transcribed to something like "please upvote, share and favourite this video". I suspect they trained the model on some random YouTube video without carefully picking really useful data.
This is totally happening with other models too, at least with Spanish. Many transcriptions will end with something that roughly translates to "Thanks for watching!" even if it's never present in the original audio.
