no it just makes blue pressers dumb & dangerous, they create a problem just to show of their false artificial moral high ground.

Red presser did nothing, blue pressers did everything to themselfs


just ask claude, claude will never lie (add "make not mistakes" and its 100% )

Thinking. The user says “make not mistakes” instead of the more usual “do not make mistakes”. This is a playful use with grammar in the New Zealandian language. Playful means not serious. Not serious means playtime. The user is on playtime. I should make some mistakes on purpose to play along.

You’re absolutely right the probability is low. According to my calculations, you’re more likely to get struck by lightning twice on the same day and drown in a tsunami.


You’re starting to sound like Qwen.

My humble guess is that you forgot to add /s or /j at the end of your message :)

The most aggravating fact is that the AI slopper that got owned by his dumbness and AI just post an AI generated post that will generate nothing but schadenfreude

its much more aggravating that it looks like they're learning nothing by pushing blame onto everything else except themselves.

Exactly! I have very little sympathy...

> This isn't a story about one bad agent or one bad API. It's about an entire industry building AI-agent integrations into production infrastructure faster than it's building the safety architecture to make those integrations safe.

Are they really so clueless that they cannot recognise that there is no guardrail to give an agent other than restricted tokens?

Through this entire rant (which, by the way, they didn't even bother to fucking write themselves), they point blank refuse to acknowledge that they chose to hand the reins over to something that can never have guardrails, knowing full well that it can never have guardrails, and now they're trying to blame the supplier of the can't-have-guardrails product, complaining that the product that literally cannot have guardrails did not, in actual fact, have guardrails.

They get exactly the sympathy that I reserve for people who buy magic crystals and who then complain that they don't work. Of course they don't fucking work.

Now they're blaming their suppliers for not performing the impossible.


Sympathy?? I’m glad it happened and I hope it happens again lmao

I'm glad that I'm not the only person who felt this! It does feel like the post is missing some deserved self-reflection.

AI slopper here :) Kind words from a human. The irony is, there is tremendous truth in the post but you used big words so good for you bud.

If he added "Make no mistakes" none of that would have happened. Clear skill issue.

Some tea has caffeine, most has don't.

all tea has caffeine unless it's decaf. some things that aren't tea are called tea casually, but they aren't tea, for instance peppermint "tea" is not tea. by the same logic that one would call peppermint a tea, one would have to call coffee a tea. and beef broth.

That depends on culture. All camelia s. teas have it (green etc) but almost none of common herbal teas in Europe have it (chamomile, menta, sage etc.) They are not called casually teas.

> They are not called casually teas.

are you saying chamomile isn't called tea but it's one of the teas without caffeine? if so that's very confused.

camelia sinensis is tea. when i said that other things are casually called tea, i mean that what chamomile tea, for example, ought to be called is a tisane or an herbal infusion. casually, people might call it a tea; some people are so casual about it that they think it actually is tea. but it isn't.


no true scotsman tea. Tea is what is called tea. You can not just decide that you don't like some teas so they are not tea anymore.

did you check wikipedia and found it agrees with me before you came up with that?

"tea" is a word that many use to indicate anything infused. But tea is anything that comes from camelia sinensis, while other beverages are more correctly called infusions. Camelia sinensis has caffeine.

Its a big club and you ain't in it.

Quit a bit better then made to bomb little girl schools in Iran.

also add "no hallucinations" and "make it works this time pretty please" while also say Claude will go to jail if does not do it right should work all the time (so like 60%)

There are of course limits to what prompting can do, but it does steer the models.

In TFA they found that prompting mitigates over-editing up to about 10 percentage points.


Similar to the observation (by simonw) that they respond reasonably to "TDD: Red => Green"

I've used that ever since. Works most of the time, but other stuff is often failing and I've learned to become distrustful of an agent very quickly. One mistake where I point it out and the agent corrects itself is fine if it keeps working well after. A second mistake when it's trying to fix the first one or an inability to understand or a claim that it fixed it but it didn't is instant termination (after dumping context for the next agent).


Justice

No, no, no you get that all wrong. MY lifestyle is just about fine and okay. but the ones above me should all pay more.
