This is incredibly useful and interesting. I have tried asking claude to generate XML code for various diagrams for import to draw.io with varying success. But I feel like if I could incorporate these instead, or markdown, for a specific graph instead of pure XML would yield better results.


I think the better question is to answer why do emergent properties exist in the first place.

I disagree with the premise that emergence is binary. It's not. What we determine "emergent behaviour" is partly a social concept. We decide when an LLM is good enough for us and when it "solved" something through emergent properties.


This is literally what I use AI for. Excellent project.


Isn't that quite a pessimistic view though? Of course there will always be something that irks you, but that does not mean you can't be fulfilled at some point in life and be aware that you are really happy and there is nothing you would change.


I think it depends on your perspective. You can think of it as pessimistic or optimistic. An optimistic view would be: There will always be problems, but I can deal with them. Everyone else also has problems. No matter the decisions I made, there is no reason to have regrets.

It helps me to know that the richest, most attractive or smartest person alive has the same amount of problems. It's just part of life and I am happy


> it’s clear that Trump will back down on any extreme positions he takes.

That has always been the case with him. That's literally his negotiation tactic.


If only someone had written a book on this exact topic, back in the 80s.


I think that’s a fair comment. The only reason why I was not entirely convinced that that would be the case is that tariffs seem to be one of the positions that Trump was truly ideologically bound to.

I couldn’t tell whether he would really go through with this or not. Now it’s clear he has no bottle at all. So weirdly is more of a comfort.


This is very interesting. I feel like we are going towards a future where you will have personal agents that know a lot about us and will interact with other corporate and government agents to complete beurocratic and non beurocratic tasks. Those with more capable agents will have to pay a premium.


Fun fact, "confabulation", not "hallucinating" is the correct term what LLMs actually do.


Fun fact, the "correct" term is the one in use. Dictionaries define language after the fact, they do not prescribe its usage in the future.


Confabulation means generating false memories without intent to deceive, which is what LLMs do. They can't hallucinate because they don't perceive. 'Hallucination' caught on, but it's more metaphor than precision.


Agents HAVE Models. There is a big difference if you give a model access to tools and perhaps some form of memory.


I think the author points to cultural changes in business comunication, which doesn't give any clues to what you should invest your money.


Would be interesting to see the input prompts.


""" Create a complete reproduction of the ReBirth virtual synth. Create it as a single HTML page with javascript. Use canvas and/or react for the UI and tone.js or something similar for the audio. It should be fully working and playable. Output it as a single HTML page. See screenshot for the UI and description below for how the virtual synth system works. """

(this is followed by long spec of the RB-338 which I also generated and is too long to include here, and a screenshot).


This is essential to your text and it's significance - should be there imo.
