The Exchanges

Every argument clarity score on this site is built from rows on this page. Each question and answer was assessed with names hidden, the host's own answers included, on four things from 1 to 5: directness (does it answer the question asked), coherence (do the ideas follow), precision (concrete details and clear references), compression (says a lot per word). The weighted mix (30/30/25/15) is the exchange score. A person's published score averages their exchange scores on raw tape only, at least 8 of them, shrunk toward the cohort mean. Full method →

Every exchange below was scored with names hidden, four dimensions each from 1 to 5. An exchange's score is 0.30·directness + 0.30·coherence + 0.25·precision + 0.15·compression. The published score averages the raw tape exchange scores and shrinks small samples toward the cohort mean, so five great answers can't beat twenty good ones. Produced feed rows count only toward coarse estimates, never toward a full score.

Q What does it look like when somebody sells someone?

A Well, I mean, there's a technical reason. These are LMs are probabilistic. They're not precise. The, the value of LLM is when it's essentially in an ontology wrapper, because to, to, to actually create value, you have to be able to take the output, serialize it and deserialize it in the context of the business. So the logic actions and security of the business and its tribal knowledge and what it's trying to accomplish. LLMs are vertically crucial, but the, but, but the error bound is very, very, very narrow. And the way you actually do LLMs in the real world, not in theory, not as like, Is that you essentially put them in a concatenated chain where each single thing has to be done as a street unit, because otherwise the underlying math is 95 times a hundred separate change. It's like totally unreliable. And if you do it any other way, you're getting a steak dinner and that steak dinner is super tasty. It's not going to work. And even worse than the steak dinner, honestly, is that you're being taught how to do something incorrectly. It's like, it's like, okay, I'm going to learn how to learn From a wokester.

AI assessment note: “Well, I mean, there's a technical reason. These are LMs are probabilistic.”
