You know I actually prefer that my posts don't get any engagement it really gives that screaming into the void feeling.

You think you know someone, that they will take some news badly but overall it'll be ok. Then things get extremely bad and you realise you never knew them at all.

Considering how long it's had to evolve, and how many functions it had to develop first, advanced reasoning is really just the brains side gig.

Evolution put in all this effort for facial expressions and voice intonation along with special parts of our brains to interpret those and yet we just absolutely had to go off and develop writing.

Hey everyone I'm here to tell you your code is wrong: wilsoniumite.com/2025/05/17/y...

Sometimes I think "wow these large language models are dumb". And then I encounter people (only slightly sarcastic). wilsoniumite.com/2025/03/10/p...

I've gotten pretty annoyed at the strawberry test for LLMs. It's not a fair test. It’s like showing someone the color teal and asking them how much green there is. Your eyes have green cones, why can't you tell us the percentage of green?

A great day when your data looks like Australia.

I think Bluesky is nice for the shorter ideas that I don't feel like writing full blogposts about, but now I find myself wanting a "medium" medium. Blogposts make me want to fully formulate my ideas, and many of them don't survive that process.

Having never been on twitter or anything similar I'm realising I definitely lack some sort of proof-reading muscle memory. Can't just "post first, make edits later"

One view:

The biggest thing we've learned is that intelligence is just way easier than expected.

I don't understand how you can't find this at least a *little* terrifying.

@simonwillison.net I was wondering about RL for LLMs and if you could just use the same LLM for the reward function. Would that work? I wrote about the idea here: wilsoniumite.com/2025/01/30/w...

After having run LLMs on my machine 24/7 for the last month or so, it's almost eerily quiet when going to sleep now.

There was a glorious moment just now when the hammer blows of my upstairs neighbour were perfectly synced with my music. I almost didn't hate it.

I was never on twitter in the first place. Do people like cats here?
