While utterly failing but we don’t talk about that, right?

> A model that aces benchmarks but doesn't understand human intent is just less capable. Virtually every task we give an LLM is steeped in human values, culture, and assumptions. Miss those, and you're not maximally useful. And if it's not maximally useful, it's by definition not AGI.
This ignores the risk of an unaligned model. Such a model is perhaps less useful to humans, but could still be extremely capable. Imagine an alien super-intelligence that doesn’t care about human preferences.
Except that it is not anything remotely alien but completely and utterly human, being trained on human data.

I think they mean to refute the article's suggestion that tiktok and misinformation are the cause by highlighting that they received accommodations at a young age.
>You seem to imply your conditions have not really improved and you need same/similar accommodations
They didn't share the nature of their current accommodations.
What does receiving accommodations at a young age have to do with this

That's a useful feature for long-running issues to include updates in the opening post. Or to improve formatting when a bug reporter isn't familiar with markdown.
And that it shows in the edit history should at least discourage abuse.
It obviously does not discourage abuse

This is particularly useful when editing the top-level comment of a popular issue to specify the current status. Or when a peer opened a placeholder issue and you fill it up. Etc.
If you actually use GitHub as a social network of sorts, there are many reasons to do edit comments. All the edits are visible anyway. You're on Git-Hub, you can already edit everything you have write access to.
In which world would you want others to be able to edit your posts in a “SOCIAL NETWORK”? In today’s age of misinformation? Greeeeeeeat idea.
