  • A nice frame from Benedict Evans on LLMs:
    • "LLMs are good at the things that computers are bad at, and bad at the things that computers are good at."[vo]
    • Related to Moravec's paradox, which is the same phenomena for normal computers and people.
    • LLMs have failure modes closer to humans than to computers.
