We just switched to Lexis. It is about half of what Westlaw charges. And I use their AI as a starting point on legal research. Like this morning I had a client ask if they as a LP under Delaware law could sue to force a buyout for oppressive conduct by the GP (and majority equity holder) when the LPA contains no provision. Lexis AI got me the answer in 10 seconds. And it was right.
Lexis has done actual work on fine tuning models and keeping their knowledge bases fresh and up to date. They've been at this since before the advent of LLM's and genAI and actually have built a pretty solid product, whereas westlaw is just playing buzzwords and trying to retrofit something to keep up (on paper)

I’m dead serious. I have the deck and CTJ and Sydney saw it. Even the funds requested are the same.

In terms of LLM mechanics it actually makes a ton of sense the numbers are the same. Linguistically it was creating a very similar pitch to yours at similar financial scale, so it's pretty likely both your LLM and his were operating in the same feature-space, and those numbers are the most "likely" to be successful at that scale

Is the hearing this morning the one where if Cannon fucks it up, she might get removed from the case? I remember our resident lawyers speculating that one of the upcoming ones had the potential to be a big enough screw up to justify it.

The justice system is made completely limp and feckless by trumpco. This will continue to be delayed until it is forgotten and below the fold

Not to worry, I've been assured by a series of graphs and expert KPI analysis that this sort of severe imbalance and top heaviness is actually a good thing

Starliner still waiting to get cleared for return trip.... two weeks extra. Seeing as they will be attempting the first American crewed landing onto land I just can't imagine what is going through the 2 astronauts' heads at this point. Scheduled return is Wed 26th. (currently)
I'd betcha a dollar they're not gonna be keen to fly Boeing once they're terrestrial again

Man who could have anticipated this leaky spacecraft having even more helium leaks when subjected to an even more extreme environment than sea level atmosphere? Just fuckin hope the door doesn't fly off mid-flight as Boeing aircraft are want to do

An experienced human knows how to ask the question better than the LLM does, and that remains the case
Said more directly, the neural network between your ears has better data and training than the NN that westlaw is trying to sell you

Come the fuck on dude, stop.
I mean, what did you think would happen when you gave him the green light to lean into shitposting his MAGA twitter in DT? You told him as long as there was a video, he was in the clear - and twitter is more than happy to serve him up all the outrage bait videos that he can handle

Spoiler
I have a few thoughts:
First off - Is anyone else getting Darth Bortles vibes off of Qimir (the alchemist dude who played Jason on The Good Place) like he knows more than he's letting on? Like he's the dude who killed the wookie and has been directing Mae this whole time?
I suspect that the red lightsaber we see at the end of this episode is not the master, but the apprentice at work. And the apprentice is training up his own acolyte so that he can topple his master and become one himself.
Or idk, maybe the show just has bad writing, but I think there's a really neat story unfolding still

first we pay for nothing, then we pay for no ads, then we pay for premium, then we get annoying AI added for free, then we pay for premium AI, then we pay for no AI. watch it - we will ultimately pay to NOT get a service from these assholes. you want a human and not a robot that pretends to be a human? yeah, sorry that's extra.
I don't get starbucks very often, but several years ago I drove up to what I thought was "the fake voice" / automated order taker - fuck that, I drove off.
I will move to an island and open a tiki bar and play Jimmy Buffett on a fucking repeating play list for the last 20 years of my life before I get drug into this hellscape.
I'm "this" close to going to a dumb phone - I think texting is the only feature besides the old school phone call that I need on my phone.
Look do you want to increase shareholder value or not, you fuckin pinko

Hey, haven't we heard this one before? Boeing is certainly exhibiting a pattern of adding features to the aircraft that materially impact pilot control without documenting it fucking anywhere.

Well, if dotard is for crypto (I don't know, can't bother to read that article) then you are obviously on the wrong side of the issue.
Idk, crypto scammers are increasingly targeting MAGATs so it's not all bad

The truth is there's a large portion of Americans who equate wealth to intelligence. Like dollars in the bank account are a way to measure IQ points or your contribution to society.
Hell, that's a significant plurality of THIS message board

Shakespeare’s “Dick the Butcher” should’ve included the bean counters in his little rant 425+ years ago.
IMO the problem isn't that bean counters exist - we need budgeting and to know how much of what we have. It's that collectively, we have decided that financials are ALL that matters in any business decision. And that leads to the shortsighted decision making and enshittification that we all enjoy today and your great (great?) grandchildren will grow up thinking is normal

My dad started deep space 9 tonight after we watched a couple episodes of TNG. The first episode of Deep Space 9 blew his fucking mind.
And the 1st season is when the show is the the least locked in - by S3 or 4 they're really cooking with gas. It's surprising how many of their episodes are still pretty dang topical today

The Jedi come off as weird religious dorks.
I don't disagree with your post, but IMO, isn't the Jedi looking like weird dorks the point? We see their downfall in the prequels in part because of their hubris and insistence on relying on harrumph and traditions.
I am convinced that the Jedi party we see in ep3 did some unspeakable evil in the name of the Order, and that's at the heart of the story

Everything is Shit: Tracking the Great Enshittening

Posted · Edited by Captainant
Large Language Model, which is the "new hotness" that most people refer to when they say "AI". It's the tech that underlies chatGPT and Gemini (Google) and Llama (Meta). It's incredibly compute and data intensive to produce a well-trained and usable foundational model like the big tech companies have, which have literally 70 billion parameters per inference (response to a query).
The mathematics and tech that underlies LLMs is modeled after how the neurons in our brains work together to create context-rich associations between complex concepts. The end result feels like magic, but it's in actuality just a finely tuned mathematical equation
Edit: I shared this in another thread, but this is an excellent and deep explanation of what an LLM is and literally how it works
