I truly don’t know how to process Ben Thompson’s essay today. He’s been my steady source of clear-eyed tech takes for like 6 years now and this one feels like straight sci-fi. I’m not an AI doomer, but I’m def in my feelings rn 😩 https://stratechery.com/2023/from-bing-to-sydney-search-as-distraction-s

I think the most shocking thing, less the interaction, and more the fact that these kinds of interactions are happening between machine and human with people like Ben and other very smart minded people. The scale of interactions is increasing therefore, the rate of a machine learning is beginning to scale.

I think this is particularly interesting when many of these interactions are attempts to reverse eng or push the boundaries of the model to see when it will walk away. Curious how a bias toward these types of interactions influences training if at all.

If it doesn't influence training the product will be dead soon. Just like a child that doesn't receive any feedback from all it's interactions. Feedback loops are the circle of life.
